Making the Most of Family Time
For Joanna and Chip, family always comes first. These days, they're focused on spending as much time as possible with their kids. In a recent interview with Southern Living, Joanna opened up about her regrets and hopes for motherhood. "One of my regrets is that I don’t remember things from the other four. It was such a crazy time," she admitted. "Motherhood means everything to me. Everything else in my life can go away, but that’s my thing — these kids." Joanna wants to soak up every moment with her children, and she encourages other parents to do the same.
View this post on InstagramOur kids book, We Are the Gardeners, is in bookstores today! Here's a picture of our very first garden- look how little the kids were! I was working from home at the time and I wanted to find a creative way to connect with the kids. So we planted this little garden in the backyard and it ended up becoming our favorite thing to do together. What I didn't realize was how much the garden would teach us. It wasn't just the kids that were learning new things, I learned so many valuable lessons as well- both practically and also personally as a mama. I hope you and your family enjoy reading this book together and are inspired to go grow something! 🌱You can order the book at magnolia.com or pick up a copy at a bookstore near you! #WeAreTheGardeners
Joanna continued, "I don’t want to waste a second of emotion on something that doesn’t create any good. I think, 'What can I do to show my kids that I love them?' Even if it’s making a cup of hot cocoa, it’s about finding little ways to connect." Joanna's words remind us all of the importance of cherishing our families and making meaningful connections, no matter how small.
What a beautiful family, right? Joanna and Chip truly embody what it means to love, support, and grow together. Here's to many more happy years ahead for the Gaines clan!
