Hoda Kotb is back on TV from maternity leave, and she’s better than ever! This morning, the mother of two returned to the Today show alongside co-host Savannah Guthrie.

“Hoda is back and everyone is smiling so much just to see your face,” Samantha said during the opening segment.

Hoda replied: “I went to bed last night, I popped up at 3:15 and I was like, ‘I get to come home.'”

The anchor had recently adopted her second child, Hope Catherine, with longtime boyfriend Joel Schiffman. The couple also shares 2-year-old daughter Haley Joy.

Welcome back, Hoda!
