Savannah Guthrie<\/a> is revealing when she plans to return to “Today<\/a>” following the disappearance of her 84-year-old mother, Nancy Guthrie<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The coanchor opened up about the weight of the decision to come back, nearly eight weeks after her mom’s apparent abduction that has rocked her family.<\/p>\n

“I really wanted to come and see everybody. I just love this beautiful place that we call home, where we get to come and be every day,” she said in the third segment of her interview with Hoda Kotb<\/a>, aired Friday, March 27. “And I know how much people have prayed for me and loved me. All the people you’ve seen on TV and then all the people that you don’t.”<\/p>\n

Guthrie said it’s “hard to imagine” coming back, but she has longed to be with her “Today” colleagues. “I consider this my family, my greater family. And when times are hard you want to be with your family.”<\/p>\n

She also added, “It’s such a place of joy and lightness. I can’t come back and try to be something that I’m not. But I can’t not come back, because it’s my family.”<\/p>\n

Savannah Guthrie believes <\/strong>some ransom notes for her mom are real<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

She continued: “I want to smile, and when I do, it will be real. And my joy will be my protest. My joy will be my answer.”<\/p>\n

Guthrie will return to “Today” on Monday, April 6.<\/p>\n

“I don’t know if I can do it. I don’t know if I’ll belong anymore,” she said. “But I’d like to try.”<\/p>\n

Savannah Guthrie says she questions <\/strong>if her mom was taken ‘because of me’<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Nancy Guthrie has not been seen\u00a0since Saturday, Jan. 31<\/a>, with her family reporting she was missing the following morning. She\u00a0regularly gathered with friends and neighbors to watch church service online, but on Sunday when she did not show up to a friend’s home, they called her daughter\u00a0Annie<\/a>, who lives nearby, a source close to the family told NBC News.<\/p>\n

The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has said they believe she was taken from her home\u00a0against her will<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Law enforcement officials emphasized that the search for the 84-year-old remained an active investigation, although public announcements about new developments have dried up as of late.<\/p>\n

Savannah Guthrie has continued to urge fans and the public to reach out to authorities with any relevant information. On Sunday, March 22, the star\u00a0shared the latest statement<\/a>\u00a0from her family, which was previously provided to the Arizona station KVOA-News 4 Tucson. They asked for “renewed attention” to the case and urged the public to consult “camera footage, journal notes, text messages, observations or conversations that in retrospect may hold significance.”<\/p>\n

“We continue to believe it is Tucsonans, and the greater Southern Arizona community, that hold the key to finding a resolution in this case,” the Guthrie family said. “Someone knows something. It’s possible a member of this community has information that they do not even realize is significant.”<\/p>\n

Law enforcement asks anyone with information to contact 1-800-CALL-FBI or\u00a0tips.fbi.gov<\/a>,\u00a0the\u00a0Pima County Sheriff’s Department<\/a>\u00a0(520-351-4900) or\u00a088-CRIME<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n
