"I just LOVE him and love the fact that he has turned into such a wonderful actor, partner and father. Good for him. The pic with the two of them together just melts my heart. My hubby looks at me like that still and I treasure it because some women wish they could find a good man who will still look at them the same way they did years before."

"If you ask Violet what I do, she'll say she remembers me bowing on stage when I did a show in New York, and so she'll say, 'My mom sometimes will bow on stage and sometimes she gets her hair and makeup done.' It's a great job!"

    Oh I am so excited for her and her husband and the new little precious one! I have always loved watching her on “All My Children” and I wish her all the best on raising her bundle of joy. Being a first time mother is very exciting for each one of us as everything is so new and there are challenges that you have to face, but it is the most rewarding job in the world and everyday to each week and month I noticed with my 2 girls as babies there was a change of everything! I loved it and still do, even as they are teenagers now! Congratulations, and enjoy!

    That seems so small, was the baby born early?

  18. Alecia Says:

    Yeah, one of my favorite soap stars delivered her baby on the very very very best day of the yaer~ November 4th, my BIRTHDAY!!!! Congrats to Alicia & Richie. I look forward to seeing her @ the next ABC soap weekend event.

  19. Alecia Says:

    @ Shelley, Although baby Willow’s birth weight was 5 lbs. 2 oz she could just be a healthy, long & lean baby like my nephew who was 21″, 5 lbs. 4 oz

  20. Mandy Says:

    My newborn niece’s birthday is November 04.

  21. CelebBabyLover Says:

    Alecia- Exactly! I weighed only a few more ounces than Willow when I was born…and I was on time. I was born almost two weeks before my due date, but techincally, two weeks either side of the due date is considered the normal range or babies to arrive. :)

  22. Shelly Says:

    I can’t stand “Kendall” but I’m so happy for Alicia and her family. She’s gorgeous and I’m sure her little girlie will be too. Congratulations to the entire family!!

  23. trina Says:

    the baby was small, probably because Alicia has always been quite tiny.

  24. Stephanie Says:

    I think its a great name! If my son had been a daughter her name would’ve been Willow Ruth. Congratulations!

  25. Alesha Says:

    Congrats so much, am so happy for them, have been waiting for this one-one day B4 my oldest BDay-yeah!! Love the name, will miss ya on AMC, Blessings to ALL!!!!
