Hoda Kotb Marks Daughters’ First Day of School with Cute Video

Hoda Kotb is proud of her two girls!

On Tuesday, Sept. 4, the Today show host, 60, shared a sweet photo of her two daughters — Haley, 7, and Hope, 4 — celebrating a milestone moment in their lives. 

“First day of school in the books ❤️❤️,” the news anchor captioned an Instagram carousel. 

For the first photo, Kotb stood beaming with a huge smile on her face as her little ones stood beside her in similar denim jumper dresses with their backpacks on. All three posed in front of a home for the family photo.

Kotb shared a video in the second slide, which showed the girls, now at school, excitedly embracing one another.

Last week, the television star told her Today with Hoda and Jenna co-host Jenna Bush Hager that her girls were excited about moving into a new home. 

“The kids are going to have their own rooms,” Kotb said. “It’s three bedrooms upstairs — mine and then one for Haley and one for Hope. And they’re so excited to have their own space.”

“They’re excited about a reading chair, they’re excited about having a beanbag chair, and their bed — that kind of stuff.”

Kotb isn’t the only Today anchor whose kids have a lot to be excited about.

Craig Melvin recently shared that his two kids — son Delano, 10, and daughter Sybil, 7 — whom he shares with his wife Lindsay Czarniak, are also headed back to school.

“….and just like that. These two make me so happy and proud. Just wish it would all slow down,” the journalist, 45, captioned a single Instagram photo of the siblings. 

The photo showed the two children standing beside each other holding up signs to celebrate the special occasion. 

Delano’s sign read, “First day of 5th grade,” while his little sister Sybil’s sign read, “First day of 2nd grade.” A heart was added to her message. 

Meanwhile, on Aug. 26, Savannah Guthrie posted an adorable Instagram Reels of herself, her husband Michael Feldman, their son Charley, 7, and their daughter Vale, 10.

“Holding on to the last of summer ☀️,” she captioned the video of the family of four spending time together outdoors. The footage was set to OneRepublic’s “Sunshine.”

Guthrie, 52, added an “out of office” graphic to the video.

However, on Tuesday, Guthrie was back in the office and brought her kids with her to meet Stephen Curry, Roger Federer and Rachel Platten on the Today set. 

The news anchor documented the fun day via her Instagram Stories, showing her two kids posing with Federer, 43, and receiving copies of Curry’s new Sports Superheroes children’s book.
