    You are correct Joy. You can dress very modestly and wear pants. In some cases pants are more modest than a dress. I’m glad you prayed about it and I’m glad you came to your own conclusion.

      How stupid to pray about wearing pants. 🙄 These people probably don't take a 💩 without praying about it. 🙄

    The Bible is not black and white on wearing only dresses. Agree with you. Good goal to grow stronger in your relationship with the Lord. I too am trying this year to do that. Looking forward to seeing your new baby boy. Take care of yourself. ❤

    I always said I never needed a date night because every night was a date night as my children were asleep by 7:00 which gave us a lot of time to talk, plan, watch movies and enjoy sitting out at night watching the stars while holding hands while strengthening our spiritual testimonies. Bedtime is key

    I’m so glad you have a channel!
    Watching you and your family grow up on TV, I (as I’m sure many have as well) feel you are friends/family. I know you are glad the TV show ended, but the impact your family and values have had on countless numbers of individuals is tremendous. My children see the value in dating with a purpose because of your family. They better understand the importance of respecting and obeying their parents, respecting each other and serving others because of your family.
    No matter what the haters say, even your family’s trials and troubles has brought beautiful things and set and example of how to live a Christ like way no matter what.
    Thank you for sharing your life with us!

    I had the same methods of crowd/clutter control. We rotated toys in and out of the toy box so there was only a certain amount out at a time. Also, to have the kids clean up what they were playing with before taking something new out.
    My prayer for myself this year is to open my heart honestly to what God is telling me, showing me, giving me. To be aware of all my blessings... during the times there doesn't seem much hope a simple snowflake or cloud formation will catch my attention and give me the smile my heart has for His love.

    As you grow older as a couple together, your kiddos grow older. They will eventually be staying up much later and they won’t be as easy to manage or keep on a schedule. That would be so nice but it is natural that they grow and learn! My husband and I have a 7.5 and 9.5 year old. We count on a weekly sleepover where our girls go stay with their Gram Gram. It is so special for them and it gives us that one night together and then the morning after we go out to breakfast. That is a cherished time together. It isn’t 24 hrs long so Gram Gram doesn’t go crazy with the wild kiddos, but it is plenty of time for us to reconnect and enjoy each other again.

  • @paulinefoster7838
    @paulinefoster7838 Год назад +2

    You are such a poised, beautiful young lady. I wholeheartedly agree with the "desire follows obedience" philosophy. I purposed myself to start reading scripture every day, getting through the Bible in a year. This is now my 6th year in a row, and I wake up in the morning with a true "hunger" for His Word (desire). Keep posting your positive lifestyle to the world, it truly needs wholesome examples of young families!

    I grew up only wearing Skirts and Dresses also. When I Started 8th Grade the kids at school started to pick on me all the time because I had to wear Skirts and Dresses everyday. I begged my Mom and Dad and Grandparents to PLEASE allow me to wear Pants.
    My first pair of Pants that I ever owned was a pair of Pink Polyester Pants. This was 1978.
    My Grandma never wore pants her whole entire life. 1911-1978.
    I am 58 now and only own 1 skirt.

  • @gracewalker381
    @gracewalker381 Год назад +1

    Yes Joy, I love when you said grow close to the Lord for yourself first so that you may have that relationship to show your children. I’ve seen many people grow in their knowledge of the Word, which is what is needed but they stop there & they fail to get to know Him personally, as you said, friend to friend. And then all they have to give to others is religious head knowledge. Praise God for your daily, ongoing, growing up into all Truth. It’s refreshing to see……

    Thank you for the Q & A, it’s always wonderful to get to know you a little more. I can imagine how much you and the crew would miss each other after spending so many years together. Have you kept in touch with them since the show ended? Have you read Jinger’s book? I bought and read it as soon as it came out. I thought it was a wonderful book and was really impressed with the care and love she showed for your parents amidst no longer following their beliefs. She showed a tremendous amount of growth and compassion.
    I can’t wait for this new little one to arrive!

    Your system with toys in crates is similar to the preschool I volunteered at when my daughter went there. A few things left out. A toy box is crazy. Kids pull everything out everywhere and don't want to put everything away. I had a playroom built in the cellar where the play kitchen table and other big things stayed. A dress up box was always out and a box with musical instruments and a keyboard later violin and piano.

    I always kept a laundry basket sitting out in each room of the house. Then I would straighten up a room by throwing the toys in the laundry basket. Children can also easily do this. Then, if company came over, I could round up the laundry baskets and hide them out of site. It was a very low maintenance way to store toys.

    Joy, it’s so refreshing to see someone living their life purposefully and with reflection. I’ve taken a completely different path in my life than you (for example, I chose to lead a spiritual life outside of the Christian traditions and teachings) but what makes both of our lives meaningful is that purposefulness in choosing the path that feels right. So many people just stumble into things instead of purposefully building their lives. I’m very happy for you.

    Where is the baby I soooo loved seeing every week? I can barely believe how you've grown and the maturity you embody in your life. Your wisdom, compassion and kindness are beacons of peace and love. I very much enjoy the way you share your family and life and I really feel the same about Jessa. I know the hard truths in life make it difficult to be transparent on social media but you both authentically share and we authentically love you. I always say if your true nature is evident in your daily walk, you cannot hide your shine and conversely if you're not the "real deal", you cannot hide that either. Some1 in Georgia loves you to bits...❤
    If someone goes out of their way to hurt, embarrass, shame you for ANY reason, this is YOUR channel and I'll never encourage or condone censorship but comments that hurt you should be removed. People do not deserve to use indelible ink on YOUR life! Nor should they be allowed to benefit from your sharing...I hope you know you've every right to block them. You should never feel the unkindness of others on your RUclips channel.
