The Today Show co-anchor who just turned fifty-nine, hasn’t been at work but Hoda Kotb has made sure to keep her followers up to date, with her life including parts of her special day on Instagram. She received a birthday surprise from her two daughters, Haley and Hope. With help from their grandma, Hoda’s mom, the girls made “pancakes topped with whipped cream”, with candles on top. Candles are the second most important thing because you get to make a wish. The first important thing, is eating the cake, well in this case pancakes. How precious are her children? Being a mom is special and rewarding. The sweet gesture proves why motherhood is worth it.

Former colleague, Kathie Lee Gifford tweeted a sweet message to Hoda. She wrote “Sending so much love to my precious friend. You are truly beyond special. I love and miss you”. It’s good to know the two of them still keep in touch.

He said, “Wish I could share some #birthdaycake with my dearest @hodakotb but I wish you all the best today”. They’ve had a lot of shared memories during their time on the show, it’s nice that he shared some of them.
