""We wanted to have four," Kirk (37), said in an interview with Megyn Kelly that aired today. "And I was praying to God that I was pregnant when he got murdered." After having a three-year-old daughter and a one-year-old son together, the couple was "really excited to just expand our family," Kirk said. "I was like, 'Oh, goodness, that was going to be the ultimate blessing out of this catastrophe,'" she added about having another baby."
""Especially if you're a young woman, don't put it off. You can always have a career, you can always go back to work. You can never just go back to having children," she said. "And they grow so fast and so quickly. I just, I was praying. Both of us were.""
"While the Kirks chose to keep their children's faces off the internet, Kirk has spoken about how her children have dealt with the loss of their father. She said after she arrived home from escorting her husband's casket back to Arizona, her daughter asked, "Where's daddy?" "I said, 'Baby, daddy loves you so much,' she recounted telling her daughter at the time. 'Don't you worry. He's on a work trip with Jesus so he can afford your blueberry budget.'""
