Ep. 4: Filling Our Kids' Love Tanks (It's Not As Complicated It Seems!)

- One of the most common FAQs that I receive is, "How do you lavish individual attention on ten kids?" Or, conversely, "How do I connect well with my kids of any number?" Finding ways to fill our kids' love tanks on a daily basis boils down to one key concept: intentionality. In this episode, I address how we specifically go about making sure all of our kids feel seen and loved in our home and also provide lots of practical (UNcomplicated) suggestions for anyone who's feeling a bit frazzled at the pressure to "get it right" in the kid-connection department. Hint: It's not as tricky as some people make it seem.
I mention the Penny Reward System in this episode, in case you want to check it out.

I only have an almost 2yo with another on the way, but one of the best things I've begun doing with my toddler is including her in daily chores. It passes the time, I know I'm investing in our family's future by skillbuilding, and she BEAMS because she feels included and capable. Win win win.
I homeschool too and i struggle to find one on one time with my kids. But I've been intentionally praying about it and this past month i was about to take one of my daughters to go watch the local HS volleyball team play. She's interested in joining a team and while i don't yet know how we're going to make it work, God gave me the idea to take her to go watch the game. She loved it and I know she felt seen by me because she had a 180 attitude change. 🙌
Absolutely loving these. I saw your new book advertised on Amazon, clicked on it because I liked the title and saw that it wasn't available for a while. I screenshot it so I could look into it later. I guess that must have triggered a memory or maybe it was simply God because later that day I had some time and wanted to listen to one of the many motherhood videos I have saved and don't always get to finish. I scrolled through my saved videos looking for the title that I also remembered even though it's been months since I started it. Mediocre Motherhood was in the title and it was with the Farmhouse on Boone girl. After a little while I made the connection of who you were and your new book and then found these videos. Recommending to all my mom friends now. This is some of the best mothering advice and most Godly wisdom I've really ever heard. I hear and see so much complaining about motherhood and I wanted to never fall into that trap.. it's easy to do! Finding your content has been a real breath of fresh air! Thank you so much and God bless!
Your podcast has been such an inspiration for me to become better and better mama and wife! Thanks for practical tips and encouragement:)
This speaks to me, even with a 19 and 21 year old. Young men who still like to chat and are willing to lend their ear to me is a gift and one that wouldn't happen without being intentional while they were young. Thank you Abbie!
Thank you SO much for this video! I just received so much FREEDOM! Wow 😭🙏 Praise The Lord I had been having so much struggle feeling like I just was not doing enough for and with my kids and I kept feeling like I was failing. Thank you for simplifying it and speaking truth! I LOVE that you have 10 precious miracles from The Lord!!! ❤️🥰🙏
This is so good!! Thank you for the reminder! I have 4 littles 5 and under, and I need to incorporate them in the daily activities more so they can learn and I can mentor them and spend more time with them. Even if it makes things take more time, it will be worth it.
Yes, it will! That hard work up from pays dividends later!
Thank you for saying out loud that it truly is the simple things
I absolutely love this podcast! Thank you for practical advice and examples! I started cooking with my oldest daughter when she was 2 and as an almost 6 year old she is super helpful. This is very encouraging also since we want to grow our family!

Please more on the Penny system.
Could you some videos on homeschooling multiples with wide ranges of ages. I have a 6, 4, 2, and 8 month old and we are allowing Gods control on how many kids. We homeschool and I am struggling to get everything done and find the best curriculum for our family!
Hi! I’ll have to see if this channel evolves into that kind of content. Right now, I’m just using it as a way to post podcasts, but we’ll see!
Is it more important that I recharge right now or connect with this child who want to go with me? ❤
