The snapshots featured the family of three bundled up for a chilly outing. Kotb wore a puffer jacket with black details and a matching black hat, while her daughters sported colorful jackets—one in lavender, the other in black—paired with earmuffs and boots. The photos appear to capture a sweet, everyday moment, with the girls walking down the driveway with their backpacks, seemingly on their way to school.
The final slide in Kotb’s post included a reflective message: “I think you should tell people how important they are to you, not because they could leave at any moment, but because they’re here now, and it’s worth saying.”
Kotb’s departure from the Today show marked the end of a significant chapter in her career, but she’s clearly savoring this new phase of her life. Her focus on family and cherishing ordinary moments resonates with fans who’ve followed her journey as both a television icon and a mother.
Since stepping away from the spotlight, Kotb has embraced a quieter, more personal routine, allowing her to spend more time with her daughters. Her heartfelt posts underscore her appreciation for life’s small yet meaningful moments, inspiring others to do the same.
