Jennifer Garner: probably my favorite actress. She'll always be Sydney Bristow to me - the sweet, friendly girl next door by day, but international super-spy by night. The TV show "Alias" was my escape during the days when Greg and Daniel were tiny.
I also love the fact that her yearbook photo looks like this:
"I will tell you what I can't abide -- and I think the Internet has really created a space for it -- women criticizing other women and mothers criticizing other mothers. It just makes me crazy, whether it's staying at home, going to work, how long you breast-feed, if you use formula. I feel like we should just assume everyone is doing the best they can.
Women should take care of each other, not tear each other down. I would just really like to see a mother who really believes that she has done it all so right, you know what I mean?"(from Parade, Jan 24)
You tell 'em, Jennifer!!

aaaaaamen to momma's supporting momma's!
i read this same article online a couple days ago and it reaffirmed my love for her. in her line of work, its refreshing to hear real dialogue about real things that matter....
i particularly liked that quote as well. she said it perfectly.
aaaand.....yes, always butt-kicking sydney bristow in my book. Now i want to dust off Season 1 and get back into an Alias marathon (only one of the best shows everrrrr)
Nothing lights my fire more than people telling me how to mother...or, mothering my children when I am 3 ft. away. GRRRRRRRRR!!!! Can't we all just love eachother???
What a great quote. Sometimes it's hard to see movie stars as actually people, but when you read things like that it's so easy to relate to them.
Where have I been? I didn't know she was married to my Ben Affleck.
