They got married in 2003 and had their first child, Drake, in 2005.
Their second child, Ella, was born two years later.
“Ella is like me,” Joanna confessed in an interview withPEOPLE.
“I think she’ll follow in my footsteps and have her hand in lots of things.
The power couple also operates three restaurants, among other business endeavors.
We can all agree that Joanna is a super mom, not just an accomplished entrepreneur.
She’s also a role model for her kids and puts a lot of effort into their education.
However, she also thinks parents should offer themselves a bit more grace.
For example, they are expected to water the plants and pick the fruits and vegetables they eat.
Their parents also want them to spend more time outdoors and less time on screens.
Joanna wants her children to stay down-to-earth and learn to enjoy the simple things.
For instance, their favorite toy is a set of plastic cups.
Perhaps you blame yourself for spending too little time with your kids or making mistakes that push them away.
Self-care is just as important as looking after your loved ones, says Gaines.
After all, you might’t be at your best if you’re constantly tired and burned out.
“From one mom to another, stop being so hard on yourself.
Because I’m telling you, this grace is sufficient,” Gaines wrote on herInstagram page.
