Hoda Kotb left Today show up early on Wednesday to drop off her two kids for their first day of school. And on Thursday, it was time for Savannah Guthrie to do the same!
After co-anchoring NBC’s morning news show for the first half hour with Kotb, Guthrie left to attend events for 9-year-old daughter Vala and 6-year-old son Charley.
“Savannah had to leave early,” said Craig Melvin, filling in for Guthrie at the news desk. “It’s her kids’ first day of school, so we wish Vale and Charley the best of luck.”
“Yes, happy first day!” Kotb said.

Tennis wasn’t the only event on the Guthrie family’s calendar this summer. Earlier in August, the reporter took Vale to one of Taylor Swift’s sold-out Eras Tour shows at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.
“Memories to last a lifetime with my beautiful girlfriend,” Guthrie wrote on Instagram, captioning the video commemorating the night out. “Thank you @taylorswift for singing your heart out every night.”
The mother-daughter duo, the post said, exchanged friendship bracelets and sang Swift’s hits during the three-hour performance. “Feeling so grateful and lucky to see this in person with the little girl of my wildest dreams ❤️,” Guthrie wrote.
