Mary Louise Parker, star of "Weeds," says that bringing William Atticus into her world in 2004 was a "massive" moment for her. William is 5 now and is Mary Louise's son with actor Billy Crudup. But that's not to say that it was any less amazing when she welcomed 2-year-old daughter Caroline "Ash" Aberash in 2007. She adopted Ash from Ethiopia.
Mary Louise, 44, says she dreamed of adopting a child when she was just a little girl herself. "I remember being little and asking my parents if we could adopt," she says. "I just always was attracted to the idea, and I love what it says and what it means."

"There are millions of children in this world, and I think if you have the energy and the resources, then it’s something you should really look into."
