I've learnt an enormous amount from my children. Mostly that my agenda isn't the most important thing in the world. For a while, I was trying to squeeze them into my life. And it was such torment! It makes you realise how selfish you are.

When I'm not working, my time is really about my children.

I work, and then I leave the office, and I'm with my kids and just sort of enjoy them on a visceral level, and I don't feel like I'm exorcising my own deep ideas about parenthood and about how my life will come into play in my work.

I don't work all the time. That's why I waited to have children until I was ready for that. I try to organise my time according to them because they need me. I don't want to put my work first anymore because it's not as important as my children.

Every single decision I make about what material I do, what I'm putting out in the world, is because of my children.

Children are easily influenced, and I always want to do things I can be proud to show my kids someday.

It surprises me how much children like me, you know? If they look at me as an example, I have a big responsibility.

I do feel a lot of times like I'm out of my league with my kids in terms of what my responsibility is.

I know I have a responsibility as a role model to children and I try to fulfill that.

My life revolves around my child's routine.
