The Eternality Of Love

The Eternality Of Love

Author: Jedlie Circus Productions, Inc December 7, 2025 Duration: 59:49

In this uplifting episode of "Reading With Your Kids," host Jed Doherty welcomes two inspiring authors, Dr. Dale Atkins and Jenn Moudahi, to discuss the power of picture books in connecting families and celebrating cherished family traditions. Dr. Dale introduces her new children's book, "The Turquoise Butterfly," which explores themes of the eternality of love and the importance of intergenerational relationships. Drawing from her own family's memories and the enduring symbol of the butterfly, Dr. Dale encourages families to share stories, create lasting memories, and foster resilience across generations.

The conversation highlights how sharing personal stories between grandparents and grandchildren not only keeps loved ones' memories alive but also enriches each person emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. Jed shares heartfelt anecdotes about his own family, emphasizing the value of passing down wisdom and making special moments together.

Later, author Jenn Moudahi joins the show to talk about her picture book, "Charlotte's New Moccasins," which celebrates creativity, cultural heritage, and learning lifelong skills from elders. Jenn shares her personal experiences crafting moccasins with her mother, emphasizing that even small creative projects can spark meaningful conversations and preserve family traditions.

Listeners are encouraged to use children's books like these as conversation starters for building deeper connections, nurturing individuality, and honoring intergenerational bonds. Discover how reading together can become a treasured family tradition and a source of joy, comfort, and resilience.

There’s a special kind of magic that happens when families share stories, try a new recipe, or simply talk about a movie they just watched together. The Reading With Your Kids Podcast, from Jedlie Circus Productions, Inc, explores that magic in every episode. While the title highlights reading, the conversations here go far beyond the pages of a book. This podcast is really about connection-the kind built through everyday moments, whether you’re cooking, creating, or discovering a new song together. Each episode brings you authentic conversations with authors, educators, and families who share practical ideas and personal stories. You’ll hear about great children’s books, sure, but also about how shared experiences with TV, movies, and music can spark meaningful family discussions. The underlying goal is always to strengthen those essential bonds. Tuning in feels like getting thoughtful, friendly advice on turning daily routines into opportunities for laughter and learning. It’s a supportive space for any parent or caregiver looking to enrich their family life, one shared story or silly kitchen experiment at a time. The tone is warm, inclusive, and focused on the simple, powerful truth that time spent together is the foundation of a strong relationship.
