You cannot look at a sleeping cat and feel tense.

Twins are a high-risk pregnancy, by definition. The quieter I am, the longer I can keep them growing.

I have been fiercely private, in part because I could never understand how a journalist could be otherwise. I was also the mother of small children, and security concerns were paramount.

'Good Morning America' exploited Joan Lunden's pregnancy, but you won't see me bringing my babies on the air. The only reason I'm talking about the babies at all is that they've been with me on the show since I became pregnant. After a while, I had to acknowledge this pumpkin tummy.

I would not take for granted that my personal life - because I knew better than anybody - that it was just a life. It was surprisingly an ordinary life.

There might be false starts and do-overs.You are entitled to experiment before you find your calling.

I spent an awful lot of my life underestimating myself and, as a result, not exceeding my own expectations.
