Jamie Lynn Spears

Jaime: (about her pregnancy) It was 2007. I had been on a Nickelodeon show, Zoey 101, and after we wrapped shooting, I just wanted to go home to Louisiana and finish high school, be a cheerleader, all that. Then I found out I was pregnant. I was 16. I'd had one boyfriend. It doesn't make it perfect or all right. But I was judged for something that probably most everyone does. I was young. I was in love. I was like every other teenager, except I had this last name. And I made a decision that is forever my decision.

Jamie: (on moving back to hometown of Louisiana after the birth of her daughter) Hollywood is not the right place for me now, with where I am at in my life. But who's to say that I won't go back someday? Right now, though, I'm really happy, and I want to stay here. It's a different life, having a baby, but it's better than anything I could have ever imagined. I love it.

Jamie: (about her daughter) As much as I would love for her to look like me--I did carry her for nine months, after all--she looks like [her father] Casey! And he reminds me of it every day.
