Joanna Gaines reflects on parenting and self-perception inspired by son Crew

Joanna Gaines recently shared a reflective moment inspired by her six-year-old son, Crew. In her latest Magnolia Journal entry, she described a photo of Crew that prompted her to think about childhood and the importance of self-perception. Gaines expressed her feelings about the complexities of parenting and how children grow. She noted that as kids age, they may start to see themselves through the eyes of others, which can complicate their self-image. She emphasized the need for awareness of both personal shadows and the influence they have on their children. Gaines hopes to guide her kids in recognizing their true selves amid external pressures.
