Jolie counts herself lucky

LONDON: Angelina Jolie, an actor, mother of four and soon to be six, and involved in many humanitarian efforts, feels this hectic lifestyle is easier than having a regular career.

Thesun.co.uk reports Jolie saying, “I’m very, very lucky. A lot of mothers don’t have a job where they can just work a few months in a year and then come out for two days for a press conference. My schedule is very small in comparison when it comes to hours so I can afford to spend as much time as possible with my children.”

She added, “When I’m working, Brad’s home with the children and vice versa. We do have nannies that help us, but nobody spends the night. We also spend a lot of time completely alone with our children. We’ve kind of found a balance. And this year I’m taking off completely for the family.”
