I'm very lucky. I had a great childhood.

Thank God I didn't have my children until I was a little bit older.

We were very lucky. My mother and stepmothers were on very, very good terms, and so we, the children, grew up as brothers and sisters.

I feel so lucky to have both a son and a daughter, because there's a different relationship with each of them.

I was lucky. My family is wonderful. And it's funny, because most of my best friends come from very large families. So it always felt as if I had lots of siblings, though in the end I had to leave them and go home. I kind of got the best of both worlds as a kid.

I have two children myself. I always laugh; they have you playing mothers pretty early, us women. You look at the television, the mothers get younger and younger, and the children get older and older, and you start to wonder when these people had these children. Were they breeding when they were 12?

I always wanted children late; I had my first daughter at 39 and the second at 45.

I had five children in six years. The day I brought my fifth baby home, that week, my daughter turned 6.

I've been very lucky and I have a happy old age with good family and friends still around.

I was by far the youngest of the family, and at times it was like being an only child.
