Jennifer Garner is featured on the cover of the new issue of InStyle magazine. In the accompanying article this busy mom-of-two talks motherhood and sleep deprivation.
Some highlights:
On having a cover shoot just six weeks after welcoming daughter Seraphina:
"Violet wanted me to rock her. The baby was ready to nurse. Ben was trying to have a conversation with me in the middle of the night for some reason. I didn't sleep! I would think I looked appropriate for someone who had a baby six weeks ago. Except they don't go together, having a baby and then six weeks later sitting for a cover shoot for your favorite magazine."
On husband, Ben Affleck, helping with the daily tasks of two young daughters:“He dresses [Violet] and does her hair. It’s pretty funny. You can always tell when he has been at it, just two random barrettes hanging in there. It’s so sweet.â€
On daughter Seraphina (now 3 months):"With Sera, I'm so sure of her sweetness as a person. She’s taught me that there's an innate goodness in people that's real. And it's there from birth."
On daughter Violet teaching her to slow down and appreciate life:“Once, when she was 6-months-old, I was nursing her and kind of in a hurry. I was impatient, and she was really taking her time, just staring at the ceiling. So I looked up, and the way the light was playing on the ceiling was so beautiful. I wouldn’t have noticed that on my own.â€
