"As a working mom, it’s the hardest when my kids grab onto me as I’m walking out the door and say, 'Mommy please stay home!' I don’t want to ignore that, so I always explain to them that being with them is my favorite thing in the world. I explain that I have to work just like they have to go to school. I also let them know what I’m doing at work that day—whether it’s filming the show or going into the office—and what time I’ll be home. Taking a  few seconds to let them in on this other huge part of my life has really helped them understand that mom and dad have a big job to do."

So, for Mother's Day, she took to her blog to share an important and powerful message for all the moms out there:

You are enough.

But this year, Joanna's reflections also brought her to an especially poignant conclusion about Mother's Day:

"When I thought about all the strong moms around me, it didn’t take me long to realize the name 'mom' isn’t easy to come by. These mothers have fought infertility, miscarriage or even the loss of a child. So whether you’re a mom right in the middle of raising your babies, or you find yourself in the throes of immense pain—this day is for all of us."
