On Tuesday, Hoda Kotb announced an amazing surprise: she’s adopted a baby girl!

“I do have something to tell you, but instead of telling you, I’m going to show you something,” Kotb said as she phoned into the early hour of the Today show to share a picture of her daughter, Haley Joy Kotb. “Haley is a Valentine’s baby, she’s a little nugget. She is the love of my life.”

Of course, all of Kotb’s colleagues at Today were quick to offer their congratulations.

“This little girl Haley is the luckiest girl,” Lauer said. “You are going to be one of the most fantastic moms I can ever imagine.”

“You’re going to be an incredible mother. You thought you drank a lot of wine before? Just wait,” Daly added.

“We are thrilled for you,” Gifford said. “You were made to be a mom.”
