My mother is a big believer in being responsible for your own happiness. She always talked about finding joy in small moments and insisted that we stop and take in the beauty of an ordinary day. When I stop the car to make my kids really see a sunset, I hear my mothers voice and smile. – Jennifer Garner
Theres an internal battle. I need to work, I need to work, I need to work and I need to be home with my kids and the kids win. – Jennifer Garner
I remember, my mom didnt have any help, so if she needed to be somewhere after school, wed just go down to the neighbors and shed give us a snack and make sure we did our homework. There werent any latchkey kids. – Jennifer Garner
I am lucky to have had an attentive, curious and loving dad and heart-smart, down-to-earth, gifted mother. They changed the outlooks of their own lives and have never forgotten the people and organizations that helped them dream bigger than their circumstances should have allowed. – Jennifer Garner
If you dont die of thirst, there are blessings in the desert. You can be pulled into limitlessness, which we all yearn for, or you can do the beauty of minutiae, the scrimshaw of tiny and precise. The sky is your ocean, and the crystal silence will uplift you like great gospel music, or Neil Young. – Anne Lamott
