I don't think makeup is rocket science or a cure for cancer.

Being a nice girl from the Mid-West, my inclination is always to give in and say yes because I want people to like me.

The body I had at 21, God gave me. The body I have at 31, is one I worked for.

Nothing I have accomplished has given me more confidence than birthing my children at home naturally. I was so high after delivering my children-not just because I had a new baby, but because I was so proud of what my body (and mind) were able to do. I strongly encourage women not to give this power away.

Nobody in my family ever thought that I'd a be a model.

I always knew I wanted to have children.

I think if people are passionate about something, it could be real estate or biochemistry, and that spark gets turned on in them, everyone's beautiful in that zone.
