Opening up to Marie Claire, the 28-year-old dishes on her feelings for hunky husband Ryan Reynolds and the importance of family.
Read on for HIGHlights!

On the most important thing to her: “All my eggs are in one basket, and that’s my family. That’s where my heart is. That’s where my everything is. That’s the thing that I feel most protective of and the thing that I feel is the most exposed when I feel exploited.”
On marrying Ryan Reynolds: “I knew he would always be my best friend for my whole life. That was the biggest thing to me. I’d never known anything like the friendship that I had with him. I could like him as much as I loved him.”
On paps trying to take pictures of her daughter James: “I’d rather not have to deal with it at all, but we knew the lifestyle we were getting into, and while it’s hard├óΓé¼┬ªit’s another thing when it’s our child. She didn’t have the opportunity to make a decision about what she wants.”
On acting: “I didn’t want to be an actor, because [my family] were all doing it. When you’re the youngest of five kids, you think, Who am I? If this is who they are, and they’re shaping who I am so much, then who would I be? You strive for your own identity.”
On parenting: “Ryan had a nice, normal upbringing, and we want our kids to have the same normal life that we had. We don’t ever want to rob them of what we had, because we’d feel really selfish.”

We’re fairly certain the Reynolds kids will have a fantastic childhood!
