Candace Cameron on her decision not to act

Actress Candace Cameron, best known for her role as D.J. on Full House, is now the mother of three — Natasha, 9, Lev, 7, and Maksim, 5 — and doesn’t regret her decision to stay home with her kids instead of acting.

The way I was raised, family was always the most important. When I had our first daughter, Natasha, I knew that’s what I wanted to do. It wasn’t always easy at times, having grown up on television and being in the entertainment industry. But I’m so happy and thankful I made it a point be a stay-at-home mom and raise them through such important times in their life.

The 31-year-old and her husband, former NHL player Valeri Bure, make sure that everyone in their family stays fit and they do it together.

We work out together. We have fun with the kids. We all play tennis together, we ride bikes, we go on walks together. It’s really a family effort.

I’m just horrified she named a child Maksim (Maxim?)

yeah I caught her on the Today show this morning. She is very beautiful and has a good head on her shoulders. She’s very religious so I can see why she’s stayed so focus throughout Full House. She has her own website where she often post pics of her kids. They’re gorgeous!

A beautiful girl. I’m glad to see a former child star be normal and family oriented.

She once came into a boutique i worked at years ago. She was so sweet and down to earth and stunningly beautiful in person. I also had Fred savage, sinbad and Allysa milano there!

I have always liked this actress and have

always wondered how she feels about Full

House being in reruns all the time?

I think she sets a good example of someone

who was in the entertainment business and

other child stars who are now grown with

children should follow her example.

You cannot help but love Candace and be happy for everything she has. She deserves it! Her family is absolutely gorgeous and I must say that her little guy Lev looks exactly like her! It’s so refreshing to see happy, thriving celebs that make the most of life.

God bless her and her family.

I have been a fan of Candace’s for so long, and
it’s mainly for her great morals and family values. It’s so refreshing in today’s day and age of celebrity. Her official website is great, and she and her family are sooo cute!

She is great, it’s wonderful to see she knows she is priviledged and to do something good with that and be with her kids is so un Hollywood! Well done to them both, what a great family!
