Quotes

Kelly: I've wanted to have babies since I was 11. I always babysat. I was making thousands and thousands of dollars doing commercials and still babysitting for $2.50 an hour. Children are our future--literally. It's such a cliche, but it's so true. (edit)
Kelly: (about John Travolta) Everything about my husband is sexy, especially his lips. (edit)
Kelly: (in 2007) I love everything about being pregnant. You get treated like a princess, and your husband pampers you every minute! I wanted to get pregnant again when our daughter Ella was about four. Then I wanted to keep working for a little while, and now, all of a sudden, she's 7, so I don't know. I'm not pregnant now, and I don't have a film project lined up, either. That's all I'll say! (edit)
Kelly: Having a sick child really puts your focus on things that matter. Everday annoyances like traffic and such take a back seat when your child is in need. John and I have learned to be thankful for all that we are handed, good and bad, all gifts need to be appreciated...even if they don't seem like gifts at the time. (edit)
Kelly: I had no problem setting my career aside to take care of my family. If I needed to do so a hundred more times, I wouldn't give it a second thought, family comes first. (edit)
