"The first time I worked after I had Finn and Hazel was aplay for four months. And they were a year-and-a-half old, andthere was a little place in the theatre for them to play, andPaul Rudd's son was just younger than they were.
"It seemed perfect, 'I'll be at work while they'resleeping, and nothing about our life will be any different.'
And then cut to me standing at an elevator waiting to go towork, literally pulling my own hair out. I went a little bitcuckoo," she said.
Roberts, 46, said she felt she had earned the right totake some time off with her kids because she had been workingnon-stop for so long.
"I had been working for 18 years when I had Hazel andFinn almost nine years ago. So I felt like I earned that timein my house and in my kitchen and in bed all day with thesetwo little people. I felt that was my present to myself. I wasfortunate to work a lot, and I worked hard, and I was verydevoted to that, and then I earned this jewel box of a lifethat I felt completely entitled to."
