""Oh, for sure," adding, "I'm exhausted. I'm completely wrung-out and tired.""
""Whenever I lose my cool, I turn to my youngest and I go, 'You got to call your brother and sister. They wore me out. I'm so tired. Like, eat the cookie. Go to bed late. Just do it, you know, but like, think about how it's going to make you feel.'""
""Well, it's interesting. Because last year, she turned 25 and when I was 25, she was a year and a half old, and I had just done Legally Blonde. And I was about to start Sweet Home Alabama. We just are living very different ... different life existences, realities.""
Reese Witherspoon describes feeling exhausted after 25 years of parenting and being more lax with her youngest son, Tennessee. She admits to giving in to his requests when worn out and telling him to call his siblings because they exhausted her. Two adult children, Ava and Deacon, are from her previous marriage to Ryan Phillippe; Tennessee is twelve and from her marriage to Jim Toth. She notes differing life stages between her and Ava, comparing ages and career timelines. She characterizes raising three children while working in Hollywood as a beautiful, messy journey that involved spending time together in trailers.
