Quotes by Nancy O'Dell

Breastfeeding is the best diet. I want to eat healthy for her, so it’s easy to say no to pizza.

I feel very vulnerable when it has to do with family. Having lost my mom, who I was so extremely close to, now I feel so vulnerable when somebody gets sick or hurt. I become a complete wreck until they’re well. Even if it’s a cold! I compare myself to Marlin in Finding Nemo.

We play tag and kickball almost every day. It’s one of the ways that I’ve figured out how to spend some fun quality time with my kids while getting exercise.

My daughter and I are so close. She just turned six. I can describe anything she's doing, the least little thing, and I get all excited about it. It's like medicine.

My daughter can work on an iPhone and iPad like crazy. That's their world. If you can use that, use it educationally. They can learn while they're having so much fun. They don't even realize they're learning.

Breastfeeding is the best diet. I want to eat healthy for her, so it's easy to say no to pizza.

My daughter and I are so close. I can describe anything she's doing, the least little thing, and I get all excited about it. It's like medicine. When I come home from work and the first thing I see is her and she runs and jumps in my arms - everything that went bad in the day goes completely out the window. It's like taking a dose of medicine. It makes everything better.
