independent, and hardworking. My parents, in-laws, Joe, and I have always worked hard, and the girls truly see that. My daughters constantly help me do laundry, wash the floors, and clean the bathrooms. They all clean their rooms and put their own laundry away, except for little Audriana, of course.
My oldest daughter, Gia, is an amazing, intelligent, grounded, beautiful girl. She is a gifted student and wants to be a criminal defense lawyer when she grows up because she has seen what Joe and I have been through and wants to help people like us—and moms like me, with kids who need them.
In the days after I left, Joe told me how Gia tried to be so stoic about everything and carry on like normal, but comforted her sisters when they broke down crying because I had gone away. When Audriana was sobbing the day after I left, saying how much she wanted me there with her, Gia took her in her arms, hugged her, and told her everything was going to be OK. “Mommy is fine and we will talk to her later today or tomorrow.” She had Audriana sit with her on the couch while she read her a story to take her mind off of me being gone, even though Gia was trying to cope with my leaving, too.
She helped me so much while I was at Danbury. I would tell her what I needed her to do around the house or for the girls and she always got it done, even when she had been at school all day and at varsity cheerleading practice until 9 p.m. She is a strong young woman and is such a great role model for her sisters. She has such a bright future ahead of her. All my daughters do.
Gabriella is my quiet, sensitive one. She is a bit shy around new people at first, and didn’t like the cameras when they were around in the earlier years of Housewives , so I never forced her to be on the show. She did start to come out of her shell a little bit and had fun on Season 6.
Gabriella likes everything to be perfect, like her mommy does. She’s so neat that sometimes she will sleep on top of her bed, with just a blanket over her, so that it always stays made.
She excels at everything she does. She has always gotten top grades at school and loves playing soccer. She lives and breathes it and plays on a club team. Growing up, I always thought soccer was for boys, but now I love the sport. Seeing how passionate Gabriella is about the game makes me love it even more.
When I was at Danbury, Gabriella also helped me with the younger girls, which made me cry. I was so grateful for how she and all the girls stepped up when I was gone. She would wake up Milania and Audriana each morning and help get them ready for school, like I used to do.
I like to call Milania “my spicy one.” If you’ve ever seen her on the show, you know why. She definitely steals the spotlight and loves to ham it up when she is on camera. She’s come out with some doozies over the years on the show. I mean, this is the girl who once said on the show, “I love being a diva!”
When she was four, they were filming us getting our hair done together. She kept telling the guy doing her hair that it hurt. Finally she yelled, “I want the jerk out!”
Here are some of Milania’s best:
“You’re not a cooker, you’re a hooker!” said to Gia. (She says she still doesn’t know what the word “hooker” means and doesn’t understand why everyone laughs at that line . . .)
“You better not come up here, you stupid little mouse!” said to a mouse trying to climb up a slide she was on.
“Oh my God . . . holy! Look how strong you are! You’re like a dragon!” said to Joe . . .
But then there was: “You’re a big poop!” also said to poor Joe . . .
Some of the things she says really shock me, which you have probably seen by the look on my face. But other things are just so funny, it’s really hard not to laugh. Joe and I don’t want to egg her on, but when she said, “I’m into older men,” it was really hard not to burst out laughing.
