<p>During the 40-year-old actress&#8217; <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/emily-blunt-acting-hiatus-oppenheimer-interview-1235533294/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">appearance</a> on iHeart&#8217;s &#8220;Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi&#8221; <a href="https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-table-for-two-105373224/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">podcast</a>, Blunt talked about not working so she could spend time with her kids while they&#8217;re still young. The actress and husband actor, John Krasinski, tied the knot in 2010 and share two daughters, ages 9 and 7.</p>
<p>&#8220;This year, I&#8217;m not working,&#8221; Blunt told the host. &#8220;I worked quite a bit last year and my oldest baby is 9, so we&#8217;re in the last year of single digits.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And I just feel [like] there are cornerstones to their day that are so important when they&#8217;re little,&#8221; she added.<br />
&#8220;And it&#8217;s, &#8216;Will you wake me up? Will you take me to school? Will you pick me up? Will you put me to bed?&#8217; And I just need to be there for all of them for a good stretch. And I just felt that in my bones.&#8221;</p>

<p>In June, the &#8220;Mary Poppins&#8221; star made it clear she does not want her daughters to follow in her footsteps into the entertainment field.</p>
<p>&#8220;My toes curl when people tell me, &#8216;My daughter wants to be an actress,'&#8221; Blunt told <a href="https://www.harpersbazaar.com/uk/culture/entertainment/a44036007/emily-blunt-july-interview/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harper&#8217;s Bazaar U.K. magazine</a>. &#8220;I want to say, &#8216;don&#8217;t do it.'&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Because it&#8217;s a hard industry and it can be very disappointing,&#8221; she added. &#8220;A lot of people tell you not to take things personally — but it&#8217;s completely personal, especially when you&#8217;re being judged on how you look. So you just have to endure that side of things.&#8221;</p>

<p>The &#8220;Edge of Tomorrow&#8221; actress said her children don&#8217;t see her as a movie star but as their mother.</p>
<p>&#8220;When I see myself up on a billboard, I have this complete dissociation with it,&#8221; Blunt said. &#8220;And I can see my children doing the same – they might say, oh, there&#8217;s Mama, but it&#8217;s not exciting for them. What&#8217;s exciting for them is when I can pick them up from school and take them swimming.&#8221;</p>
