Hoda Kotb will be looking to adopt a third child as soon as she possibly can. The Today show anchor has already adopted two daughters and has decided to expand her family. Kotb has thoroughly enjoyed being a mom and knows that three times a charm.

The paperwork is all complete and now Kotb will be waiting for a new child to enter her world if all works out. She confirmed the news during an appearance on The Drew Barrymore Show, of course, hosted by actress Drew Barrymore. When asked by Barrymore why she decided to expand her family, Kotb gave a very sweet answer.

She further shared that she and her fiance Joel Schiffman made the decision together after discussing if they had more love to give another child. According to Kotb, they also knew that there would be more children who would need love and that their family would benefit from adding another child. All signs pointed to yes.

As a mother of multiple children, Kotb also addressed how your love grows with each child you welcome into your life saying, " I just know your heart's ability to expand blows my mind, you can fit so much love in there." As a mom of two herself, Barrymore agreed that a mother's heart does grows even when you're concerned it may not. The mom of two, to Olive, 8, and Frankie, 6, shared, "When I had Olive and then found out I was going to have Frankie, I was like, 'How does this work?'" She's right. It's a mystery but it works out.

Kotb did become a first-time mom at an older age and even addressed that with Barrymore. Kotb, 56, adopted her first child in 2016 at the age of 52. She is mom to the 3.5-year-old Haley Joy and 17-month-old Hope Katherine whom she shares with Schiffman who is even older than her.

Kotb has dealt with critics about her age adopting and will undoubtedly face more criticism now that she will be having a third child. She shared with People that she recieved a letter recently in the mail shaming her for being an older mom and telling her she was irresponsible for adopting at her age.

Kotc was hurt but able to brush it off. As for now, she will await the news of when she will become a mom three times over.
