I grew up on a farm in South Africa, so I've always been surrounded by animals. I was raised by a mother who always had great compassion and respect toward animals. It was instilled in me.

So far I'm not surprised by anything about being a mom. It's all pretty great - but that's what I expected.

I've always known I wanted a family.

I had these fangs because I had jaundice when I was a kid and I was put on so many antibiotics that my teeth rotted. They had to cut them out. So I never had milk teeth. That was tough, you know, being in school having photos taken while I was pretending I had teeth. It was hideous.
