On her idea of happiness:
“I need to be looked after. I’m not talking about diamond rings and nice restaurants and fancy stuff–in fact, that makes me uncomfortable. I didn’t grow up with it and it’s not me, you know. But I need someone to say to me, ‘Shall I run you a bath?’ or ‘Let’s go to the pub, just us.’ I mean, the things that make me happiest in the whole world are going on the occasional picnic, either with my children or with my partner. Big family gatherings, and being able to go to the grocery store–if I can get those things in, I’m doing good.” – Vanity Fair 2008

She is a selfless parent, Always putting up with my random antics and adventures, whether I’m dragging her to pick apples on a farm, cooking the most difficult reciepe I can find, or Shooting lessons on a Gun Range.
