I love Melina Kanakaredes! I have a photo of hers in my file with her two daughters. They are so pretty just like their mother. I think Melina has everything…brains, beauty, a good heart, a nice career, a large extended family which is what we need for us to be able to cope with difficult times, a good husband and two beautiful daughters! Some guys have all the luck. I do think she deserves it.

I love Melina as an actress – she was so great on Providence and now on CSI: NY. Zoe and Karina must be such beautiful little girls.

I LOVE Melina as an actress.I bet her children are beautiful! I was just thinking how complicated it would be if those girls had both mum and dad's surnames!

Can totally relate to the ambivalence here. Seems that motherhood is full of mixed feelings--loving your newborn more than humanly possible but simultaneously wanting her to grow up and get big so she sleep through the night, wanting your kids to cuddle more but not wanting them to cling to you day and night...
the list just goes on. We should all try to enjoy what we have and live in the moment.

When my now 6 year old daughter starter pre-school I cried like a baby in a part of me wanted her to cry and not want to stay...but she was so happy at school and loved being there, she kept telling me to go home...lol It's like Melina says, "you want them to need you, but you don't want them to need you."

Oh and my those last names are LONG!! lol
