Hello from Sri lanka... I am third son for my Christian parents and I have two elder brothers.. so total 3 boys.. by the way my name is Ezra.. I saw your third son too Ezra.. wow😆😁
@somu sashykiran sister, seek his kingdom and follow the commandment, everything else will be added into your life, May Jesus bless you with Grace to understand and obey and His Commandments and by that way be blessed with salvation of husband and a fruit of womb
very sweet! I "only" had brothers, always longed for a sister, became a christian: now I have everything: more brothers, so many sisters, mothers, fathers...a whole family....worldwide... :) ❤
I’m a Methodist and a recovering alcoholic and expected you guys to be judgmental but have found your videos to be so motivating and have brought me closer to Christ. Thank you so much!! Your family is beautiful and love your music!!! God Bless!!❤️❤️❤️
As a mother of 6 boys and 4 girls, I cannot say either was harder per se. I think my girls were a "little easier" in the younger years and the boys in the older years (boys seem to have constant on-the-go energy). But honestly, it really does have to do with parenting. They all learned to be quiet and sit during our long (back then) services. (books and drawings helped!) I thank the Lord I had good godly mentors and did lots of biblical studies on family life. Hard work? YES! But I am so thankful for the blessing of having children!
Watching daddy calm baby girl was so precious! When our little girl was in the NICU, she was crying and daddy walked in and spoke to her, she instantly calmed and started looking toward where his voice was. I would love to see you 2 beautiful ladies do another collab on how y'all keep your homes so clean!! My house looks like a bomb hit it at any given moment.
So great to see this tiny notes on not so tiny families! You all are wonderful parents! May God always keep you and your children close to His great heart!
I was blessed with one boy and only one boy.. needless to say he was an amazing handful like 5 boys or so I think.. he is very adventurous! Now I am blessed with a daughter in law and am loving the calmer side to things!! His wife is an excellent balance to him provide by our Lord as his helper. :-)
I have one of each. My observation is that my daughter could be moody, and my son could get angry, then quickly get over it. Both are now responsible adults...
🥰 My children are grown, along with almost all of my grandchildren. My first great grandchild just turned 4 weeks old and is such a blessing. I miss little feet running through the house, and I miss the giggles and laughing as they became teenagers. They have wings and roots, I am so proud of them all! Many Blessings to you and yours, the children are only home for such a short time.
This warms my heart. My Mom was rather cold, me and my sisters are sometimes struggling with our own offspring. But - how blessed are we to have them...
I have 6 boys and 1 girl, with another on the way. I know raising 6 girls would be way different. I used to imagine moms of girls were sitting around having tea parties with their daughters enjoying calmness. That's probably not reality. My house is definitely not calm. But I love it.
Mine. When little, the boys were just more active ...which "seemed" more "difficult" at the time. I'll trade tween, teen girls for 30 active boys any day of the week.
I have only one child a girl who has been a good child and a blessing; she is now a responsible adult working for this states university and has bought her own home...she continues to be a blessing to her father and I. My mother on the other hand had 10 children (lost 2 as infants) and raised the remaining 8 (3 boys and 5 girls), she always said that she would rather raise girls any day, lol. I guess it differs from one case to the next. Love watching your family and have followed you guys for years. Since Mr. Kirkland was helping with Justin Rhodes buss build. Have enjoyed your music as well and own several of your CD's Keep up the good work and sharing your testimony!
I love that God created each gender to reflect his character. I agree with Juliana that drama depends on the child’s personality. Both genders are special and when godly men marry godly women, it’s beautiful. Thanks for this special video. Blessings to both families. 🙏❤
This was beautiful. I thought we would not be seeing Lindsay anymore so it was really special to have her still taking part. Meeting another family was special too-- and all those girls - they waited until number 8 for a change in sex. Really blessed by this 'episode' of 'Tiny notes '. Thank you. X
I think you misunderstood. I think they're just changing the focus a bit, not to be so much on themselves, but to include other families and friends more, that's all. 🤗❤
@@caridadrevilla2439 That's really sad and I'm sure very trying. I bet they were thankful though. There's so many adults that turn their back on their parents when they need caring for. Both my parents were gone in my 17th yr of life.
@@jeannieab5218 HI. Yes I have no regrets being there for them in their old age and taking care of them. It was hard but I'm glad , because they were happy and that gave me peace when they passed.
I had 2 girls and 1 boy. My observation on girls...they are sweet but more clingy, wanting me to hold them or more contented to sit in my lap than do stuff independently. On the contrary, I couldn't keep my son on my lap, he was always down on the floor playing or trying to figure things out, or how things work.
As a wife and a mom I love videos like this. It makes me feel like I'm not alone in how I think and feel. I love you all and I'm thankful for this video.
It's not that unusual for there to be that tension between mothers & daughters. It's not all a bad reflection on you. My mom didn't even like me, but the older I got, the more I knew how much she loved me!
My mom said the same! I have 5 older brothers....BUT she did also say, when I had just had my older daughter, If she can be as much a blessing to you as you are to me, you'll be very fortunate, my girl!! So there...
We shouldn't be looking for differences between boys and girls. Often we get stuck in a stereotype for life, which can lead to frustration. Each child is a unique individual. Blessings to everyone here. 🙏❤
The differences can be so blaring sometimes though. You start out equal just changing diapers, singing them the same songs, reading them the same books, having the same baby rattles and decorations but despite doing everything the same, the differences start appearing. I think it’s good for new mothers to talk about these things to understand normal child development.
Sweet and beautiful to watch both of you families! And love hearing all the advice and such that you had to say. I'm a grandma but I adore my grandson and we have another grandson on the way. We had the one and only son after a marriage of 10 years. We homescooled him all 12 years. But there are circumstances that have happened in his marriage and our grandson had leukemia at 3 and praise God he is completely cancer free. Our son bought the house next door to us so we're so thankful to have him nearby. And we get to see our grandson a lot which is such a blessing. We were in a homeschool co-op with families that had the numbers of children that you and your friends have. It was really a great adventure for me since we moved from Memphis Tennessee to Cincinnati Ohio 30 years ago and I came out of a corporate career of 15 years. That was a huge change for me but thank God I was hearing his voice and obeyed him and my next door neighbor happened to be a homeschool mom. She taught me everything I needed to know and I had a lot of certified teachers in The homeschool co-op who helped with great advice. Bless you guys extremely and may many mothers and fathers humbly receive the advice and counsel that you are so anointed I would say to give. Bless you so much!
Two blessed families to have blessed parents, she's a blessed little girl and all of the children are from God, prayers for all of you with lots of love,
Y’all were so on point with this topic. Cultivating the hearts and minds of kids impact their thinking and behavior. As someone who got a call to do children’s ministry many years ago, one thing God gave me was Luke 18:15And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them. 16But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. 17Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.” With that, you’re right. We have to raise them to have knowledge of God’s Kingdom and encourage their lives in it with things like honoring and loving God. Thank God that there is grace for the commitment of raising them under godly teachings and it’s all for His glory.
I love the Jordan Michael Tuesday family. Great to see some of their background. I long for their channel to explode. Such a talented & creative family.
So beautiful to see this Biblical perspective of boys and girls both created in the image of God. In a world with a lot of confusion being put upon children, it is so important and beautifully refreshing to see the truth modeled and talked about. May the Lord encourage many families through this video to cherish the gift of children they have been given to care for and nurture. May the Lord bring powerful restoration over all that interferes with communication and relationships within His families, such as autism.
Mom here of 3 girls and the 4th and youngest one a boy. I also think that raising boys are easier, but my son as a child was a real daredevil so it was a bit unnerving for me after having my girls first! I was a single parent most of the time, as well. So without a husband and father figure for my children, I had a bigger and more difficult role to fill, which made it harder to be a parent working outside the home.
@@susannabonke8552 Thank you! I can certainly see that God was helping me through all the challenges, joys, heartbreaks, and depression, as there were many of them, and actually still are even as adults! Blessings to you!
Wow I think you covered this subject perfectly. There isn't really any specific answer but God.... I love you all so much and my hats off to you for the parenting skills required for ALL THOSE CHILDREN!!! 💜❤️ ➕
I had 5 brothers and always longed for a sister and now have 2 daughter and 2 sons. I’m so thankful my daughters came first for that answered the cry of my heart. All of them were fairly easy to raise and perhaps being around the guys so much kept any possible ‘drama’ out of my life and my girls as I just never experienced it. Now I can say I just love them all and am so happy for the gift of them.
Hi to both mama's from Michigan. We are the blessed parents of 8 daughters and now the young men are coming into our lives. One son in law and one soon to be. Our first grand daughter...a girl. It's been wonderful. I can't imaging it any other way.
Thank you all for sharing! My husband and I had 5 girls and 5 boys, and I agree with what was said- each individual is different. Each individual has both strengths and weaknesses, so we all need the Lord's mercy and grace daily.
Boys makes me tired as they have so much energy and the girls tend to be more responsible as an early age like watching her little siblings while boys are running every where I would say all are blessing and they have their differences and iam mom and have both
My cousin has all girls. He said they were all sweet little angels as little girls. He thought he was in heaven, but then the hormones kicked in at adolescence and the arguments and swinging emotions between the girls and the mom broke the peace. If he had only had 1 girl that would not have been so bad but a bunch of girls and mom all going through PMS together every month was a challenge!
@@stst77 This is not true at all. Perhaps this is due to the liberal culture that makes children not respect their parents and treat them as if they were their friends! In my religion, it is not permissible for us to raise our voices above the voice of our parents! Because that is a great sin! The important thing is how you raise your daughter If you make movies raise her, the street, and her classmates at school, you will not have a good daughter, but if you raise her to take responsibility for her actions and not allow her to yell at her mother, she will grow up being polite.
@@user-yz8eo3gj6m do you have children? One thing is definite and that is hormones affect the mind and body and pms can create moodiness in girls. It’s biology. My cousin disciplined his children. They are very good girls. They are not running around wild and he has an excellent wife of 25 years. This isn’t an out of control family. Another fact is religion can oppress natural feelings in people especially a fear based religion, but religious people are still humans with human emotions and hormones. You can’t tell me that no female in your religion ever experiences the hormonal challenges of pms especially during adolescence. I think either you don’t have a house full of teenage daughters to know or you grew up in a highly oppressive religious family or you have unrealistically painted a wishful thinking image of your religion that is not reality.
I have 4 girls and two boys mostly grown now.. in my opinion much of the differences depends on their personality as I have had the quiet contemplative boy and the ‘out to conquer to world’ girl, and each is a precious gift in their own way to be nurtured and admonished to grow in wisdom and character so that they can enjoy all God has for them and be a blessing to others. My children are such precious blessings to me.. they challenge and encourage me and keep me on my knees 🥰
I don't even have kids but for some reason I'm fascinated with this video! lol I think it's amazing that families let God determine how many kids they will have. I can't imagine having that many kids but as long as they are taking care of them, I have no issue with the size of their family. God bless your family!
LOVE THIS CONTENT! Me and my husband have 1 little girl and 2 little boys all under 3. I feel like this has been sent straight down from God to encourage me and my family and so many others to grow closer and walk with God and raise our children to do the same. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. May God continue to bless your family. ❤️
One of our daughter is going to have another baby boy. This will make three grandkids. We are blessed to have them. I have shown your guys videos to her. She been homeschooling their kids since last year and a garden.. Age 5 and 6. You guys are a encouragement. Thank you. I will keep praying for you all that God will keep guiding you guys with music.
Even you say nothing, only the facts of the genres of the kids of your two families cause much smiles. In this suffering world, your existence itself sends Godly gladness.
Loved this video! Even if these videos don't come as often the quality of this one is great!! I'm expecting a little boy in December and I always thought I would be good at raising girls so this will be such a fun journey for me learning all the ins and outs of being a boy mom. 😊
Oh I’m so glad though that they are getting a boy finally! I felt that way about y’all when you finally got your girl! I’m really loving the new direction you have taken with your channel! May our Lord bless it immensely!
If i was economically well than i dreamed four children two boys, two girls. But now i have only one son. And I'm happy for him. Thank you God for everything. In this video i noticed fathers are very helpful to grow their children and their economic condition is good. It's all depends on ur circumstances. God bless ur family abundantly 👏👌🤗
I had 2 girls and 2 boys. The boys were easier to raise as they were growing up. Now that they're grown, I do more with my daughters and my granddaughters. My son's are off living their lives in different areas than where I live, and I don't spend as much time with them as the girls. One son I only hear from once or twice a year. The other messages me every Saturday and comes home for a visit once or twice a year. When girls start to become teens is when it gets more difficult.
Wow so well said... Boys closer to moms when they small.. Girls little more independent.. And as they mature it's quite scary as parents when they try do do things coz we want them safe. But when they move out of home or especially post marriage bor kids the girls just realize how much their mother/father struggled or meant and they become much closer and thankful to parents.. But boys nest away and start to become a different unit. But obviously the loves there it's just a lil different.
I have enjoyed your "life seasons" you've shared with us from the beginning. Blessed by your singing and privileged to watch as your sons grew and joined you both...sweet voice blend! Please stay focused on our Lord's leading as good sheep following the Shepherd wherever He goes. God's blessings!
Very nice episode! I appreciate how you were willing to look critically at where you were going with the channel, and adjusting it to fit what you felt was best for the family and still honoring to the Lord. It's inspiring to see families raising up children in the fear and grace of the Lord.
As a mom of 8, 2 boys, 6 girls, I think it really depends on the personality whose more emotional. They each hit phases of bigger emotions, that we try to help them learn to manage, and not explode on others. I've been trying to teach them how to give their emotions to the Lord, and to know they can lean on him. Mostly we try to teach them and I ask the Lord to make up the difference where we fall short.
Amazing!! God has blessed you with so many children!! No matter if you’re frustrated, angry, confused, or overwhelmed just remember that children are a blessing from God!! 😊❤️
This was a great interview! Our Dad had eight girls before the first son came! Then had another girl and ended with a second boy. All precious. God bless both of these families.
I grew up in a family of 6 boys and 6 girls all from the same parents and I remember my mom saying, "if any of you had been alike, I would have figured out parenting". I have 3 girls and a boy and my boy is definitely different. My girls are more 'do it yourself' minded and independent in their thinking. All my girls at an early age of 4 or 5 wanted to read and asked me to teach them to read but my boy instead at that same age (he is the youngest) asked me, "can you read for me forever". My girls also got into more trouble and were more imaginative in manipulations and deceptions and schemes and were much more verbal. If I had to pick which one was easier, I'd have to it was my boy. This is all coming from a mom's perspective. However, my brothers gave my parents more trouble than us girls. So perhaps its more in the parenting and the role models that the children have. I'm definitely independent and outspoken. Hope this helps and you have such a sweet family. I enjoyed the video a lot.
These videos with these topics with these people with how they joyfully and lovingly interact with each other is the closest thing we have to feel what heaven on earth is like. Thanks for blessing me and now may God's overflowing blessings continue to shower on all of you too! Amen!
This video was a treat! I enjoyed it very much! We enjoy watching the JMT Show per your recommendation! Thanks for that! ❤️ We have 4 boys and we just had our first girl! We've already received comments like, "She's gonna be more of a handful than all 4 boys put together!" But we take those lies to the Lord. Both are such a blessing in their own way and we praise God for the opportunity to raise both for His Kingdom! ❤️❤️❤️ God Bless your beautiful family as well as the Gesslers!
Love the new video! I like that it's not scripted. Especially when talking to children, they should be able to speak naturally. Your baby girl is adorable and mostly cheerful. Lucky you!
I'm glad it was acknowledged that men can be "emotional." That's my greatest fear when sisters and brothers in Christ discuss complementary natures, especially when claiming boys are easier to raise than girls. (Violence and aggression stem from fear and anger... And I wish more attention was paid by parents to little boys' fears and anger.) Bracken comes across as gentle and nurturing, checks in with the boys emotionally, which I thought was the entire point of Complimentarian Femininity? (I hope that's not rude to say?) What "boy" things will be forbidden to Lydia as she gets older, besides pants? Can she go camping and learn survival skills? Your sweet boys are comfortable in the kitchen...? 🕊
I have 5 boys and I girl. Boys are harder when they are little because they have so much energy. My boys were easier when they were older. My daughter was perfect, easy until she turned 14 and then it was night and day
This is a beautiful new format for Tiny Notes from Home, I particularly liked your introduction. I am a mother, I gave birth to a boy, a girl, and a boy. My first boy was always very active and adventurous, my girl was very affectionate, very close to me and loved cuddling as a baby and toddler, and my younger boy tried to copy my older boy but wasn't as athletic. All were beautiful, caring, very happy children.
I love your new video! I enjoyed listening to this other couple and seeing their beautiful girls and loved seeing both families of children together(even if just in the background). Lydia is just the sweetest too! Much love and many blessings...
Our pastor has one girl, a strong leader, 3 boys, and when they thought they were done another girl arrived. The special bond between the females touched me, because I really know little about boys, having a girl myself.
Lovely video. I like your new direction. I enjoyed meeting you Bracken in Lowe's parking lot a few weeks ago and I'm sorry I have not gotten back with you regarding photos. I only have a couple and have boxes and boxes to go through. If I manage to unearth them I will surely let you know! The Lord bless you and keep you and make his face shine upon you all!
Loves the episode. Very well done. I have a son and it’s so interesting to hear about daughters and sons and personality traits. You spoke on the girls guarding their hearts I would love to hear how it changes for boys and guarding their hearts and the hearts of the future women they are interested in.
Thanks for this encouraging video!!❤️We are a family of 9! We have 2 girls & 5 boys! Motherhood is glorious. We enjoy watching both of these beautiful families.
I grew up with 4 brothers and im the only girl and today I have one daughter and 3 girls from my husband's previous relationship. Both are blessings but it feels great to have a change and have a bunch of girls around. I love doing their hair :)
Great video…. your baby girl is sooooo beautiful and your boys are all handsome. The family you showed us was also beautiful and all the adults look so young it’s amazing. Blessing to both families ✝️
I had 3 boys and a girl. By far I’ve found raising children isn’t easy. We have a great responsibility to raise them not to be worldly, but to focus on God. I’m glad I’ve stayed the course because my children are now grown and have littles of their own.
Wonderful interview on both of the perspectives. I just wanted you to know that your song in the Silo sessions that you two ladies sang: Nearer My God To Thee, has such special meaning to my older generation family, and also to me and I hope my daughters. My mother and grandmother told the story of my grandmothers sickly little sister at about 2ish years old. She climbed up on the piano stool and picked out Nearer My God To Thee; and then fell over dead…my grandmother, and her daughters including my mother, all had beautiful harmonizing voices, and when they would get together and sing it was so beautiful. I remember as a young girl listening to them sing, they always started out with Nearer My God To Thee, and ended their singing together with it. My Mother passed away at the age of 94 on Aug 5th during the very early morning hours. About 7:00 pm on the night of Aug 4th, my two daughters, one granddaughter, and myself played your Silo Session of Nearer My God To Thee and we sang along too. I like to think we all including your sweet voices, sang her to Heaven. I also had your rendition played at her graveside service. I dearly love your Silo Session, and hope to purchase it soon. May God Bless you both and your families. You touch hearts that you don’t even know…thank you.
Very touching! Love watching this video. I‘m not a mum yet but I desire to raise my children in a Godly way as you do. It’s my biggest desire that they love, trust and know God. Thank you so much for sharing this 🥰
I have been a single parent to my daughter since she was almost 2 years old and she has now been married 4 years but she has been working since she was 23 years old but she still wants my opinion for her decisions and when anyone has an issue where she works,as soon as she can she calls me and asks me to pray with her for her coworkers or coworker for whatever reason that prayer is needed at that initial point. I also do the same with her and we still have a deep mother daughter bond but it is more a strong Christian sister bond as well, as even though I am in a nursing home now she is working on getting me back at home with her she cries a lot and she tells me how much she misses me and wants me back home.
Ohhhh my goodness look how she has grown. God is faithful.🥰🥰❤️🔥GOD KEEP YOUR HANDS UPON THIS ONE FOR GOOD BCAS YOU SAID THAT OUR CHILDREN ATE FOE SIGNS AND WONDERS.
A nice conversation between the two families blessed with boys and girls. It is really very difficult to bring up children in the ongoing circumstances. God bless you all to prosper and live happily.
We have two sons that are now grown. I certainly remember the days when they were little. Our first son was easy going and very cuddly. Wow did we get a surprise with our second son. He has always been a fighter and tester of any guidance or direction show to him. I believe our personality is something we’re born with but it can be modeled to a certain extent. We have followed your channel since almost the beginning and it’s always uplifting. I’m certain this new format will be as encouraging as the earlier ones. Thank you for all of the work you do on your mission for the Father. God Bless
2 young men that were in our Youth group and friends of our daughters married and had 6 children each. One had 6 boys and one had 6 boys. Love you guys!
Oh I so enjoyed your video. I loved hearing from the family with about as many girls as you guys have boys. I respect your spiritual beliefs and agree with your stand on things you have showed glimpses of your family life. I can't begin to thank you for sharing your life and now those of others. Blessings on you.
In my opinion...BOYS. I worked in a Day Care for 20 years. I love them both equally but boys are just easier. I'm retired now and miss them ALL so much. God bless our children.
Dear ones, the strong willed child (boy or girl) is the most difficult to raise!-- and every one with a strong willed child said, "AMEN!!!"😂 I'm the oldest girl of six children, 3 boys, 3 girls. It's not about gender being easy or difficult, they are just different. I love Jordan's insight about raising girls, "a lot of words go on!" Yeah they do!😂 How patient and what a good listener you must be, as well as having a good sense of humor, for the Lord to have rewarded you with seven gorgeous daughters! I have two boys and they are like oil and water! I should have named them Jacob and Esau.😒😂 My youngest is strong willed and has special needs...O Lord give me strength!!!😫 THAT is a difficult child to raise! I'm so grateful to God for my sense humor, or I'd go🤪😜🤪!♥️

How about adoption..?
very sweet! I "only" had brothers, always longed for a sister, became a christian: now I have everything: more brothers, so many sisters, mothers, fathers...a whole family....worldwide... :) ❤
I’m a Methodist and a recovering alcoholic and expected you guys to be judgmental but have found your videos to be so motivating and have brought me closer to Christ. Thank you so much!! Your family is beautiful and love your music!!! God Bless!!❤️❤️❤️
Welcome to the place I use to call heaven on earth.
Congratulations for getting help and getting clean, I’ve been there and it’s not easy. Best wishes and lot of love sister in Christ xx
As a mother of 6 boys and 4 girls, I cannot say either was harder per se. I think my girls were a "little easier" in the younger years and the boys in the older years (boys seem to have constant on-the-go energy). But honestly, it really does have to do with parenting. They all learned to be quiet and sit during our long (back then) services. (books and drawings helped!) I thank the Lord I had good godly mentors and did lots of biblical studies on family life. Hard work? YES! But I am so thankful for the blessing of having children!
Watching daddy calm baby girl was so precious! When our little girl was in the NICU, she was crying and daddy walked in and spoke to her, she instantly calmed and started looking toward where his voice was.
I would love to see you 2 beautiful ladies do another collab on how y'all keep your homes so clean!! My house looks like a bomb hit it at any given moment.
So great to see this tiny notes on not so tiny families! You all are wonderful parents! May God always keep you and your children close to His great heart!
I was blessed with one boy and only one boy.. needless to say he was an amazing handful like 5 boys or so I think.. he is very adventurous! Now I am blessed with a daughter in law and am loving the calmer side to things!! His wife is an excellent balance to him provide by our Lord as his helper. :-)
I have one of each. My observation is that my daughter could be moody, and my son could get angry, then quickly get over it. Both are now responsible adults...
🥰 My children are grown, along with almost all of my grandchildren. My first great grandchild just turned 4 weeks old and is such a blessing. I miss little feet running through the house, and I miss the giggles and laughing as they became teenagers. They have wings and roots, I am so proud of them all! Many Blessings to you and yours, the children are only home for such a short time.
This warms my heart. My Mom was rather cold, me and my sisters are sometimes struggling with our own offspring. But - how blessed are we to have them...
I’m a mom of 7, 6 girls and one boy. So far, my son has been the most difficult and he’s only 2 😆
😅
Wow such amazing sis natty you're like a super woman!❤️
I have 6 boys and 1 girl, with another on the way. I know raising 6 girls would be way different. I used to imagine moms of girls were sitting around having tea parties with their daughters enjoying calmness. That's probably not reality. My house is definitely not calm. But I love it.
They are a bit harder to keep alive! 😂 My boys are definitely more risk takers and rough and tumble. They've all had their shares of bruises though
Mine. When little, the boys were just more active ...which "seemed" more "difficult" at the time. I'll trade tween, teen girls for 30 active boys any day of the week.
I have only one child a girl who has been a good child and a blessing; she is now a responsible adult working for this states university and has bought her own home...she continues to be a blessing to her father and I. My mother on the other hand had 10 children (lost 2 as infants) and raised the remaining 8 (3 boys and 5 girls), she always said that she would rather raise girls any day, lol. I guess it differs from one case to the next. Love watching your family and have followed you guys for years. Since Mr. Kirkland was helping with Justin Rhodes buss build. Have enjoyed your music as well and own several of your CD's
Keep up the good work and sharing your testimony!
I love that God created each gender to reflect his character. I agree with Juliana that drama depends on the child’s personality. Both genders are special and when godly men marry godly women, it’s beautiful. Thanks for this special video. Blessings to both families. 🙏❤
I married later and after a long wait of 5 years Igave birth to a baby girl and more.Itsa gift ..
This was beautiful. I thought we would not be seeing Lindsay anymore so it was really special to have her still taking part. Meeting another family was special too-- and all those girls - they waited until number 8 for a change in sex. Really blessed by this 'episode' of 'Tiny notes '. Thank you. X
why did u think that?
I think you misunderstood. I think they're just changing the focus a bit, not to be so much on themselves, but to include other families and friends more, that's all. 🤗❤
@@sarahs7253 because Brackin said Lindsay didn't like to be behind the camera--
@@happydays3678 Oh I see. Makes sense.
The Lord.." changed it" ..to a boy
The blessedness and purity of this video had me smiling all the way through. Thank you so much... Thank you Kirkland family
I think boys get closer to their Moms and girls like the special attentions of their Dads... both are a blessing
Just stereotypes, mothers who don't hate their femininity love their children equally
As an only child, I think it would have been great to have a few sibling. I had a lonely childhood. Great vid yall!
Same here. I found it hard later in life when I had to be my parents caregiver as they aged . I had no support.
@@caridadrevilla2439 That's really sad and I'm sure very trying.
I bet they were thankful though. There's so many adults that turn their back on their parents when they need caring for.
Both my parents were gone in my 17th yr of life.
@@jeannieab5218 HI. Yes I have no regrets being there for them in their old age and taking care of them. It was hard but I'm glad , because they were happy and that gave me peace when they passed.
I had 2 girls and 1 boy. My observation on girls...they are sweet but more clingy, wanting me to hold them or more contented to sit in my lap than do stuff independently. On the contrary, I couldn't keep my son on my lap, he was always down on the floor playing or trying to figure things out, or how things work.
Amen! Raising kids to love and honor God is most important, wishing I could go back and redo some of the mistakes I made. Praise God for forgiveness!
As a wife and a mom I love videos like this. It makes me feel like I'm not alone in how I think and feel. I love you all and I'm thankful for this video.
Dear Repent and Believe, You are not alone, there are a lot of us. God bless you.💖
I'm with you! It does feel like we're doing this alone sometimes 😕 we're not alone. We're never alone. The Lord is with us every step of the way. ❤️
@@lauraswann5543 aww I love you sister thank you so much. GOD Bless you as well👑💝
@@KingFamily7inAll amen sister thank you for this wonderful reminder. I love you in CHRIST JESUS. GOD Bless you.
Lydia is soooo sweet. 🥰🤗She looks like her brother Silas. God bless you all x🙏🏿💝
You're right sis Fiona!❤️
Couldn't agree more!
My Mom always said that she would rather raise 10 boys than just 1 girl. I was her only girl, that does not say a whole lot for me does it !🙃
😅 I dont get why she would say that though. Boys seem like so much more work.
It's not that unusual for there to be that tension between mothers & daughters. It's not all a bad reflection on you. My mom didn't even like me, but the older I got, the more I knew how much she loved me!
My mom said the same! I have 5 older brothers....BUT she did also say, when I had just had my older daughter, If she can be as much a blessing to you as you are to me, you'll be very fortunate, my girl!! So there...
Poor girl was living with the boys and could not find her identity I guess. Not her problem..:)
no,it doesn't...ha ha ha...the humor in your question
We shouldn't be looking for differences between boys and girls. Often we get stuck in a stereotype for life, which can lead to frustration. Each child is a unique individual. Blessings to everyone here. 🙏❤
The differences can be so blaring sometimes though. You start out equal just changing diapers, singing them the same songs, reading them the same books, having the same baby rattles and decorations but despite doing everything the same, the differences start appearing. I think it’s good for new mothers to talk about these things to understand normal child development.
Sweet and beautiful to watch both of you families! And love hearing all the advice and such that you had to say. I'm a grandma but I adore my grandson and we have another grandson on the way. We had the one and only son after a marriage of 10 years. We homescooled him all 12 years. But there are circumstances that have happened in his marriage and our grandson had leukemia at 3 and praise God he is completely cancer free. Our son bought the house next door to us so we're so thankful to have him nearby. And we get to see our grandson a lot which is such a blessing. We were in a homeschool co-op with families that had the numbers of children that you and your friends have. It was really a great adventure for me since we moved from Memphis Tennessee to Cincinnati Ohio 30 years ago and I came out of a corporate career of 15 years. That was a huge change for me but thank God I was hearing his voice and obeyed him and my next door neighbor happened to be a homeschool mom. She taught me everything I needed to know and I had a lot of certified teachers in The homeschool co-op who helped with great advice. Bless you guys extremely and may many mothers and fathers humbly receive the advice and counsel that you are so anointed I would say to give. Bless you so much!
Two blessed families to have blessed parents, she's a blessed little girl and all of the children are from God, prayers for all of you with lots of love,
Y’all were so on point with this topic. Cultivating the hearts and minds of kids impact their thinking and behavior. As someone who got a call to do children’s ministry many years ago, one thing God gave me was Luke 18:15And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them. 16But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. 17Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein.” With that, you’re right. We have to raise them to have knowledge of God’s Kingdom and encourage their lives in it with things like honoring and loving God. Thank God that there is grace for the commitment of raising them under godly teachings and it’s all for His glory.
I love the Jordan Michael Tuesday family. Great to see some of their background. I long for their channel to explode. Such a talented & creative family.
Hello Helga 👋 how are you doing, it's nice to meet you here on RUclips
Your daughter is growing so fast and adorable.Such a blessed family and so many wonderful big brothers.
Hello Lisa how are you doing today How's everything going?
So beautiful to see this Biblical perspective of boys and girls both created in the image of God. In a world with a lot of confusion being put upon children, it is so important and beautifully refreshing to see the truth modeled and talked about. May the Lord encourage many families through this video to cherish the gift of children they have been given to care for and nurture. May the Lord bring powerful restoration over all that interferes with communication and relationships within His families, such as autism.
Mom here of 3 girls and the 4th and youngest one a boy. I also think that raising boys are easier, but my son as a child was a real daredevil so it was a bit unnerving for me after having my girls first! I was a single parent most of the time, as well. So without a husband and father figure for my children, I had a bigger and more difficult role to fill, which made it harder to be a parent working outside the home.
So father god must be proud of you raising them alone! Be assured He was with you on stormy seas.
@@susannabonke8552 Thank you! I can certainly see that God was helping me through all the challenges, joys, heartbreaks, and depression, as there were many of them, and actually still are even as adults! Blessings to you!
Wow I think you covered this subject perfectly. There isn't really any specific answer but God.... I love you all so much and my hats off to you for the parenting skills required for ALL THOSE CHILDREN!!! 💜❤️ ➕
Hello Melissa how are you doing today
I had 5 brothers and always longed for a sister and now have 2 daughter and 2 sons. I’m so thankful my daughters came first for that answered the cry of my heart. All of them were fairly easy to raise and perhaps being around the guys so much kept any possible ‘drama’ out of my life and my girls as I just never experienced it. Now I can say I just love them all and am so happy for the gift of them.
Hello Maria how are you doing today How's everything going?
Hi to both mama's from Michigan. We are the blessed parents of 8 daughters and now the young men are coming into our lives. One son in law and one soon to be. Our first grand daughter...a girl. It's been wonderful. I can't imaging it any other way.
The Mom in the striped shirt is so wise and practical. Her children are really blessed.
Thank you all for sharing! My husband and I had 5 girls and 5 boys, and I agree with what was said- each individual is different. Each individual has both strengths and weaknesses, so we all need the Lord's mercy and grace daily.
My experience is raising boys are easier, but both are a blessing and add so much joy!
Boys makes me tired as they have so much energy and the girls tend to be more responsible as an early age like watching her little siblings while boys are running every where I would say all are blessing and they have their differences and iam mom and have both
My cousin has all girls. He said they were all sweet little angels as little girls. He thought he was in heaven, but then the hormones kicked in at adolescence and the arguments and swinging emotions between the girls and the mom broke the peace. If he had only had 1 girl that would not have been so bad but a bunch of girls and mom all going through PMS together every month was a challenge!
@@stst77
This is not true at all. Perhaps this is due to the liberal culture that makes children not respect their parents and treat them as if they were their friends! In my religion, it is not permissible for us to raise our voices above the voice of our parents! Because that is a great sin! The important thing is how you raise your daughter
If you make movies raise her, the street, and her classmates at school, you will not have a good daughter, but if you raise her to take responsibility for her actions and not allow her to yell at her mother, she will grow up being polite.
@@user-yz8eo3gj6m do you have children?
One thing is definite and that is hormones affect the mind and body and pms can create moodiness in girls. It’s biology.
My cousin disciplined his children. They are very good girls. They are not running around wild and he has an excellent wife of 25 years. This isn’t an out of control family.
Another fact is religion can oppress natural feelings in people especially a fear based religion, but religious people are still humans with human emotions and hormones. You can’t tell me that no female in your religion ever experiences the hormonal challenges of pms especially during adolescence.
I think either you don’t have a house full of teenage daughters to know or you grew up in a highly oppressive religious family or you have unrealistically painted a wishful thinking image of your religion that is not reality.
I have 4 girls and two boys mostly grown now.. in my opinion much of the differences depends on their personality as I have had the quiet contemplative boy and the ‘out to conquer to world’ girl, and each is a precious gift in their own way to be nurtured and admonished to grow in wisdom and character so that they can enjoy all God has for them and be a blessing to others. My children are such precious blessings to me.. they challenge and encourage me and keep me on my knees 🥰
Hello Rachel how are you doing today How's everything going?
@@user-sn6tg4nh1y
Not your business
You are all blessed ! I have 5 girls and they all wonderful !! ❤️🙏
I don't even have kids but for some reason I'm fascinated with this video! lol I think it's amazing that families let God determine how many kids they will have. I can't imagine having that many kids but as long as they are taking care of them, I have no issue with the size of their family. God bless your family!
Awesome families ❤️ God has blessed my husband and I with 5 boys and 5 girls.
LOVE THIS CONTENT! Me and my husband have 1 little girl and 2 little boys all under 3. I feel like this has been sent straight down from God to encourage me and my family and so many others to grow closer and walk with God and raise our children to do the same. So thank you from the bottom of my heart. May God continue to bless your family. ❤️
🙏
One of our daughter is going to have another baby boy. This will make three grandkids. We are blessed to have them. I have shown your guys videos to her. She been homeschooling their kids since last year and a garden.. Age 5 and 6. You guys are a encouragement. Thank you. I will keep praying for you all that God will keep guiding you guys with music.
Even you say nothing, only the facts of the genres of the kids of your two families cause much smiles. In this suffering world, your existence itself sends Godly gladness.
We have been bleesed with 4 of each and have found every child is truly unique no matter the gender.
This was a beautiful show.
Ha Ha! I like the "Gessler hug" at the end. Great video. Thanks Brackin and Lindsey!
Wow, blessed with so many beautiful children! May God keep you all in His precious care! 🙏 🥰
Loved seeing 2 of my favourite youtube families together!
You've been blessed with amazing children!
Great video, God bless you all!
Loved this video! Even if these videos don't come as often the quality of this one is great!! I'm expecting a little boy in December and I always thought I would be good at raising girls so this will be such a fun journey for me learning all the ins and outs of being a boy mom. 😊
Hope you enjoy pregnancy.
@@susannabonke8552 ❤️ So far it's been pretty traumatic not going to lie, but I know G-d will get me through and I'll have a beautiful boy at the end.
Oh I’m so glad though that they are getting a boy finally! I felt that way about y’all when you finally got your girl! I’m really loving the new direction you have taken with your channel! May our Lord bless it immensely!
Hello Avilon 👋 how are you doing today, it's nice to meet you here on RUclips
If i was economically well than i dreamed four children two boys, two girls. But now i have only one son. And I'm happy for him. Thank you God for everything. In this video i noticed fathers are very helpful to grow their children and their economic condition is good. It's all depends on ur circumstances. God bless ur family abundantly 👏👌🤗
I had 2 girls and 2 boys. The boys were easier to raise as they were growing up. Now that they're grown, I do more with my daughters and my granddaughters. My son's are off living their lives in different areas than where I live, and I don't spend as much time with them as the girls. One son I only hear from once or twice a year. The other messages me every Saturday and comes home for a visit once or twice a year. When girls start to become teens is when it gets more difficult.
Wow so well said... Boys closer to moms when they small.. Girls little more independent.. And as they mature it's quite scary as parents when they try do do things coz we want them safe.
But when they move out of home or especially post marriage bor kids the girls just realize how much their mother/father struggled or meant and they become much closer and thankful to parents..
But boys nest away and start to become a different unit. But obviously the loves there it's just a lil different.
@@reeko9278. This is not true, I don't like boys more than girls I like them all equally though I find girls to be nicer
I have enjoyed your "life seasons" you've shared with us from the beginning. Blessed by your singing and privileged to watch as your sons grew and joined you both...sweet voice blend! Please stay focused on our Lord's leading as good sheep following the Shepherd wherever He goes. God's blessings!
Very nice episode! I appreciate how you were willing to look critically at where you were going with the channel, and adjusting it to fit what you felt was best for the family and still honoring to the Lord. It's inspiring to see families raising up children in the fear and grace of the Lord.
As a mom of 8, 2 boys, 6 girls, I think it really depends on the personality whose more emotional. They each hit phases of bigger emotions, that we try to help them learn to manage, and not explode on others. I've been trying to teach them how to give their emotions to the Lord, and to know they can lean on him. Mostly we try to teach them and I ask the Lord to make up the difference where we fall short.
Amazing!! God has blessed you with so many children!! No matter if you’re frustrated, angry, confused, or overwhelmed just remember that children are a blessing from God!! 😊❤️
@Paris Nicole They really are a blessing from God, and I wouldn't want to be without any of them.
I just love watching this! It brings me soo much joy! Thank you
This was a great interview! Our Dad had eight girls before the first son came! Then had another girl and ended with a second boy. All precious. God bless both of these families.
I made PLENTY of mistakes with no one around me to teach me anything. Just make sure they know they are loved.
Hello Sophie how are you doing today How's everything going?
Awesome video! I love the direction you’re going with these now. God bless your family and keep you all in His perfect peace.
I grew up in a family of 6 boys and 6 girls all from the same parents and I remember my mom saying, "if any of you had been alike, I would have figured out parenting".
I have 3 girls and a boy and my boy is definitely different. My girls are more 'do it yourself' minded and independent in their thinking. All my girls at an early age of 4 or 5 wanted to read and asked me to teach them to read but my boy instead at that same age (he is the youngest) asked me, "can you read for me forever".
My girls also got into more trouble and were more imaginative in manipulations and deceptions and schemes and were much more verbal. If I had to pick which one was easier, I'd have to it was my boy. This is all coming from a mom's perspective.
However, my brothers gave my parents more trouble than us girls. So perhaps its more in the parenting and the role models that the children have. I'm definitely independent and outspoken.
Hope this helps and you have such a sweet family. I enjoyed the video a lot.
These videos with these topics with these people with how they joyfully and lovingly interact with each other is the closest thing we have to feel what heaven on earth is like. Thanks for blessing me and now may God's overflowing blessings continue to shower on all of you too! Amen!
This video was a treat! I enjoyed it very much! We enjoy watching the JMT Show per your recommendation! Thanks for that! ❤️ We have 4 boys and we just had our first girl! We've already received comments like, "She's gonna be more of a handful than all 4 boys put together!" But we take those lies to the Lord. Both are such a blessing in their own way and we praise God for the opportunity to raise both for His Kingdom! ❤️❤️❤️ God Bless your beautiful family as well as the Gesslers!
Really love the direction your vlogs are going. Refreshing and enjoying meeting other large families
Love the new video! I like that it's not scripted. Especially when talking to children, they should be able to speak naturally. Your baby girl is adorable and mostly cheerful. Lucky you!
I'm glad it was acknowledged that men can be "emotional." That's my greatest fear when sisters and brothers in Christ discuss complementary natures, especially when claiming boys are easier to raise than girls. (Violence and aggression stem from fear and anger... And I wish more attention was paid by parents to little boys' fears and anger.) Bracken comes across as gentle and nurturing, checks in with the boys emotionally, which I thought was the entire point of Complimentarian Femininity? (I hope that's not rude to say?)
What "boy" things will be forbidden to Lydia as she gets older, besides pants? Can she go camping and learn survival skills? Your sweet boys are comfortable in the kitchen...? 🕊
Hello Liski 👋 how are you doing today ☺
You are all such a joy! GOD bless you and keep you in HIS care.
I have 5 boys and I girl. Boys are harder when they are little because they have so much energy. My boys were easier when they were older. My daughter was perfect, easy until she turned 14 and then it was night and day
Hello Carol 👋 how are you doing, it's nice to meet you here on RUclips
This is a beautiful new format for Tiny Notes from Home, I particularly liked your introduction. I am a mother, I gave birth to a boy, a girl, and a boy. My first boy was always very active and adventurous, my girl was very affectionate, very close to me and loved cuddling as a baby and toddler, and my younger boy tried to copy my older boy but wasn't as athletic. All were beautiful, caring, very happy children.
This was such a blessing! I relate so much as a mom to 5 boys with our first girl born last year.
I love your new video! I enjoyed listening to this other couple and seeing their beautiful girls and loved seeing both families of children together(even if just in the background). Lydia is just the sweetest too! Much love and many blessings...
Our pastor has one girl, a strong leader, 3 boys, and when they thought they were done another girl arrived. The special bond between the females touched me, because I really know little about boys, having a girl myself.
I agree that the personality of each child determines how easy they are to raise. Each child is unique.
I love the direction your tiny Notes From Home is taking. God bless you♥️
Lovely video. I like your new direction. I enjoyed meeting you Bracken in Lowe's parking lot a few weeks ago and I'm sorry I have not gotten back with you regarding photos. I only have a couple and have boxes and boxes to go through. If I manage to unearth them I will surely let you know! The Lord bless you and keep you and make his face shine upon you all!
Loves the episode. Very well done.
I have a son and it’s so interesting to hear about daughters and sons and personality traits. You spoke on the girls guarding their hearts I would love to hear how it changes for boys and guarding their hearts and the hearts of the future women they are interested in.
Thanks for this encouraging video!!❤️We are a family of 9! We have 2 girls & 5 boys! Motherhood is glorious. We enjoy watching both of these beautiful families.
I grew up with 4 brothers and im the only girl and today I have one daughter and 3 girls from my husband's previous relationship. Both are blessings but it feels great to have a change and have a bunch of girls around. I love doing their hair :)
Great video…. your baby girl is sooooo beautiful and your boys are all handsome. The family you showed us was also beautiful and all the adults look so young it’s amazing. Blessing to both families ✝️
I enjoye this video thank you so much ! Your little girl look so sweet, she changed! Be blessed the whole family!
🙏👑🕊🇨🇭
I had 3 boys and a girl. By far I’ve found raising children isn’t easy. We have a great responsibility to raise them not to be worldly, but to focus on God. I’m glad I’ve stayed the course because my children are now grown and have littles of their own.
Hello Robyn how are you doing today How's everything going?
Wonderful interview on both of the perspectives.
I just wanted you to know that your song in the Silo sessions that you two ladies sang: Nearer My God To Thee, has such special meaning to my older generation family, and also to me and I hope my daughters.
My mother and grandmother told the story of my grandmothers sickly little sister at about 2ish years old. She climbed up on the piano stool and picked out Nearer My God To Thee; and then fell over dead…my grandmother, and her daughters including my mother, all had beautiful harmonizing voices, and when they would get together and sing it was so beautiful. I remember as a young girl listening to them sing, they always started out with Nearer My God To Thee, and ended their singing together with it.
My Mother passed away at the age of 94 on Aug 5th during the very early morning hours. About 7:00 pm on the night of Aug 4th, my two daughters, one granddaughter, and myself played your Silo Session of Nearer My God To Thee and we sang along too. I like to think we all including your sweet voices, sang her to Heaven.
I also had your rendition played at her graveside service. I dearly love your Silo Session, and hope to purchase it soon.
May God Bless you both and your families. You touch hearts that you don’t even know…thank you.
Very touching! Love watching this video. I‘m not a mum yet but I desire to raise my children in a Godly way as you do. It’s my biggest desire that they love, trust and know God. Thank you so much for sharing this 🥰
Thanks a lot for your videos. We recently arrived from Ukraine and I am learning English with the help of your videos.
I have been a single parent to my daughter since she was almost 2 years old and she has now been married 4 years but she has been working since she was 23 years old but she still wants my opinion for her decisions and when anyone has an issue where she works,as soon as she can she calls me and asks me to pray with her for her coworkers or coworker for whatever reason that prayer is needed at that initial point. I also do the same with her and we still have a deep mother daughter bond but it is more a strong Christian sister bond as well, as even though I am in a nursing home now she is working on getting me back at home with her she cries a lot and she tells me how much she misses me and wants me back home.
I had one brother and one sister.
Now I have 3 boys and I pray to God for help to raise them to be God fearing
Ohhhh my goodness look how she has grown. God is faithful.🥰🥰❤️🔥GOD KEEP YOUR HANDS UPON THIS ONE FOR GOOD BCAS YOU SAID THAT OUR CHILDREN ATE FOE SIGNS AND WONDERS.
God bless both your families! We have 3 boys & 3 girls. Now have 11 grandchildren 6 grandsons & 5 granddaughters! Truly blessed! 💖🙏💖🙌💖
that was absolutely delightful and inspiring, thank you!
A nice conversation between the two families blessed with boys and girls. It is really very difficult to bring up children in the ongoing circumstances. God bless you all to prosper and live happily.
Great! I like that new format! Well done everybody!
I LOVE the new format of the blog! It will be a blessing for sure!
We have two sons that are now
grown. I certainly remember
the days when they were little. Our first son was easy going and very cuddly. Wow did we get a surprise with our second son. He has always been a fighter and tester of any guidance or direction show to him. I believe our personality is something we’re born with but it can be modeled to a certain extent.
We have followed your channel since almost the beginning and it’s always uplifting. I’m certain this new format will be as encouraging as the earlier ones. Thank you for all of the work you do on your mission for the Father. God Bless
So blessed this family and lovable everyone should be like this hopefully!❤️
7:33 Thanks for saying that! "Poor dad" and "Bless your heart" are quite insulting for your daughters to hear.
2 young men that were in our Youth group and friends of our daughters married and had 6 children each. One had 6 boys and one had 6 boys.
Love you guys!
Oh I so enjoyed your video. I loved hearing from the family with about as many girls as you guys have boys. I respect your spiritual beliefs and agree with your stand on things you have showed glimpses of your family life. I can't begin to thank you for sharing your life and now those of others. Blessings on you.
I have three boys and four girls and they're all a blessing to me🥰❤💞
In my opinion...BOYS. I worked in a Day Care for 20 years. I love them both equally but boys are just easier. I'm retired now and miss them ALL so much. God bless our children.
Hello Sharon how are you doing today How's everything going?
Using "many words, to make sure we connect emotionally". 😄❤️👍
Love the refreshing new style. These are encouraging conversations to hear, thank you so much!
Dear ones, the strong willed child (boy or girl) is the most difficult to raise!-- and every one with a strong willed child said, "AMEN!!!"😂 I'm the oldest girl of six children, 3 boys, 3 girls. It's not about gender being easy or difficult, they are just different. I love Jordan's insight about raising girls, "a lot of words go on!" Yeah they do!😂 How patient and what a good listener you must be, as well as having a good sense of humor, for the Lord to have rewarded you with seven gorgeous daughters! I have two boys and they are like oil and water! I should have named them Jacob and Esau.😒😂 My youngest is strong willed and has special needs...O Lord give me strength!!!😫 THAT is a difficult child to raise! I'm so grateful to God for my sense humor, or I'd go🤪😜🤪!♥️
The only difference between stubborn and determined is the outcome. I told this to my stubborn child who is now addressed as doctor.
