On adopting kittens with daughter Vivian…
Tom and his daughter Vivian recently adopted two kittens! As it turns out, there is a sweet backstory to their new pets’ adoption.
“Well, I think it’s actually very cute, I never imagined myself having cats, but then I had a little daughter who fell in love with these baby kittens when we were in Tampa last year. We had an amazing bonding experience volunteering at the Humane Society of Tampa, and every week we would go and see the animals, and she fell in love with the little kittens, and by the end of the year, every time we’d leave, she’d say, ‘Daddy, Daddy,’ and I said, ‘When I’m done playing, OK?’ And since then, we’ve had these amazing little creatures come into our life,” he explained.
On co-parenting with Gisele Bundchen…
“I think for me, when you decide to have children, that’s a big undertaking, and I don’t think you take it lightly. And I think these kids that come up under your roof, you want to provide them with values, so that when they move forward in their life, they have a real solid base and foundation,” he told the outlet. “And I think myself and their mom have done an amazing job of providing that, and I think that we’re just gonna keep doing it.”
“We’re never a finished product. The kids aren’t finished products. At the end of the day, we’re learning along with them,” he added. “And all you can do is the best you can do with the opportunities that you have, and the challenges you have, and we all have unique challenges to our life that we deal with.”
