I didn't see that article, but I'd seen another interview she gave about her adoption.  She strikes me as really down-to-earth and sweet.

Best quote ever: "A small social guideline: don?t ask a woman if she is pregnant, unless her water breaks on your flip-flops, a baby arm dangles out of her vagina and she asks you to cut the cord."

In fact, i may have to put that in my signature.

I LOVED that quote, too, Fred!!!
