  • Pictures can sometimes be a little deceiving don't you think? While I was experiencing all the joy nearly 3 years ago when I did this little photoshoot of my pregnant self out in Okinawa, Japan...what you don't see are the thoughts swirling around my head. 🤰💭 ... Will I be a good mom? 💕 ... Will I raise a good daughter? 🙌 ... How the heck am I supposed to do this? 🤔 ... Now I may be one of six children, but like most new moms I didn't know much about raising children myself. I was afraid of all the unknowns. ... Because I am a value-centered person myself (that is, I make choices in my life from the reference point and lens of my own moral compass and values) I knew I wanted to raise a daughter who had that same level of confidence in her decisions. ... and back then the thought of how to do this was almost too much to comprehend. ... The truth is, it's taken a lot of trial and error (and there's still much error, my daughter is only 3 after all) and I have relied on those further in their parenting journey, like my good friend Heather @thebalancedmamas to guide me in moments of uncertainty. ... Things I do know? Our family is solid on our family values and what things are important to us in life. Our family spends time cultivating those values together, constantly pushing each other to live them out more and more. ... I'd like to share my method for finding your family values & raising value-centered children with you. I'm teaming up with that same amazing friend, Heather for a live class tomorrow (May 18th) all about the topic. ... I encourage you to save your seat to learn (it's free). Don't get overwhelmed by the idea of raising good kids, take the time to intentionally prepare...to solidify your values so you never have to question the way you parent your kids. ... There's no one size fits all answer for "good children", but this process can be applied to any family, and tweaked to fit your unique set of values. I can't wait to share my heart with you (including ways I am still growing, stretching and improving). ... ➡️➡️➡️ Save your seat for the live class: www.addisonreads.com/liveclass
  • There’s been more interest than ever in what I have been reading, and I am happy to share! Here’s my latest read, The Marriage Lie by @kimberlysbelle it was so good & an excellent ending. Who else loves a good thriller / mystery kind of book? 🙋‍♀️ We talk a lot about what our kids read but what have YOU been reading lately? ⬇️⬇️⬇️
  • I used to be wholeheartedly against these kinds of books. Then I realized they make my daughter happy, they share the same solid lessons that the movies do and ultimately DO fit our #intentionalbookshelf 🙌🏻 I love observing my sweet daughter reading books and getting lost in them. I think a healthy balance of what your kids enjoy, what solidifies your values & what has purpose on your bookshelf is what makes a book worth investing in! 📚 On the blog & podcast I like to share the books we love and stuff that helps us be an intentional family in a segment called “Reads & Things”. This book will surely make next week’s list (be sure to check out the podcast to hear last week’s!) #ARreadsandthings
  • Happy Mamas Day! May your coffee be strong & your snuggles be plentiful 💕 #mothersday2018
  • Mistakes? Boy have I made one or two...😞😞😞 More like two thousand & counting. I used to be a total perfectionist, terrible at admitting mistakes and flaws. My friend called me out on it in college. 🤥 As a mom, I want to make sure my daughter doesn’t get this mindset that she has to be perfect. I want her to be comfortable admitting when she does wrong, and always striving to do & be better. On the podcast, I chatted about getting vulnerable & admitting my mistakes to my daughter. I highly recommend you give it a listen. ❤️ www.addisonreads.com/episode8
  • I’ve been on a serious kick of these thriller type fictions. This one was recommended by my friend @mariadismondybooks and oooooo it was good!! PLOT. TWIST. Around every corner. I love when books totally catch you off guard. Think you know what’s happening? NOPE! Thanks @ajfinnbooks AJ Finn for knocking this one out of the park. Also. Who else caught the irony of me sitting next to a window reading this book? 🧐 (thanks @danielle.m.roberts for the window!) Now, I’m currently reading “The Marriage Lie” by Kimberly Belle @kimberlysbelle It’s gooooood ✈️ I know you read to your kids, but what have YOU been reading these days? ⬇️⬇️
