You say that the children are a blessing to you, which they are but also your children are so blessed to have you as their mum. You have such a beautiful family. 🤍🤍
I think it has a lot to do with their lifestyle and values and love they are putting in their kids as well as having a big family. We live somewhat rurally, my kid is in school and it is a whole different story seeing teenagers and preteens around here. Most of them don’t have this connection with their parents as parents mostly work and surviving and have no time for this kind of quality time with their kids. Just my little observation. I myself hope I will have this close relations with my son when he is Gabriel’s age.
@@devushkab06 I think you’re absolutely right. Also, their mom is so loving and welcoming that kids can just be themselves at home from what I can tell
This video made me tear up a few times watching you interact with your children. As someone who grew up needing my moms attention, affection, nurturing and all of those things, I thought it was important that I comment in that I’m so amazed at what a wonderful mom you are to your children. They are each so beyond blessed to have you as their mama. Your love for them shines bright on these videos. You are such a beautiful human being. ❤
I am one of 8 children, now aged 64, and watching you brings me back to my own childhood here in the Cleveland area. My mother it seems always at the stove cooking and us kids helping as directed. It was a treasured upbringing. All 8 of us got college degrees and most are now retired with families of our own. It's sweet to look back on.
So, can I just say you are amazing. The eight children alone is beyond a full-time job, but to put all the cooking, cleaning, preparation and planning, and especially teaching on top of it is nothing short of a Herculean challenge. To do it all with such grace and peace is a feat few could achieve, I hope you give yourself a pat on the back every night for pulling this off every day. 😊
Jessica you're a very special woman that has so much patience's with your children. I admire how you always make your food homemade from scratch because that takes so much time. The love you and your husband show your children is beautiful. I fill this is needed more in this day in the world we live in. I remember back when I was growing up in the 60's and 70's this is the life I grew up in and I am so thankful. The baby is beginning to look a lot like Benjamin with those big beautiful eyes. She's gonna be a beautiful girl.
I just have to tell you this. My husband was over hearing you. I said , she has 8 children! He said, 8? So he got out of his chair and came over to watch you. He is not much on complements normally.. . But he said , boy, she doesn't look old enough to have 8 kids. He is right, you don't. Ever beautiful you are!!!!! So are all those 8 and hubby! Loved watching you like always.❤
Enjoyed it! Happy Birthday to John! Sweet Hannah is so alert, she is a doll. I am sure all the interactions with her brothers and sisters contribute to her thriving and happiness.
Jessica God has blessed you and your family in so many ways. You’re an amazing mom and wife and watching you handle all you do with so much grace. Hannah is a precious little angel and all your children are truly wonderful. Many blessings to you, Adam and your family!❤
Your videos set the framework for my kids' spring break. We're doing cozy early mornings, followed by "unschool" activities to occupy themselves while I work in the mornings. Tomorrow I'm making biscuits for breakfast and split pea soup for lunch. My 9yo told me this is the best spring break ever, and he wants to do this every holiday. 😂 Some kids love Disney. My kids love your family's life. Thanks for your sharing and encouragement! ❤
I love seeing you take good care of yourself and the time you spend with just 1 or 2 children is very special. I’m the 7th of 9 siblings and as an introvert I often felt lost in the shuffle as did sib #4. I’m in awe of parents who know their children’s individuality and uniqueness. Moms with large families may take that for granted but that focused time and attention is a special gift to your children
Hi Jessica!! I wanted to tell you that I made my first leftover meal this week!!! I had roast leftover and I turned it into beef stew!! Never did that before..... thanks for inspiring me to try.... Happy home church day! 💒💒💒🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤ your Michigan fan and friend, Araminta
Love doing left over meals! My favorite is a rotisserie chicken, pre cooked or raw. I’ll make it made, or put in crock pot over veggies. Then I pick out the bones and make chicken tortilla soup/fajitas. We have meals for several days off that!
Hannah is a living doll. You’re so organized and patient. I homeschooled for a short time when schools closed during Covid and I came away with a whole new respect for teachers and homeschooling parents. I’m always in awe of people that do this so effortlessly. I couldn’t wait for the schools to reopen. 😂Love your hardworking family.
Thank you for sharing precious baby Hannah with us. It makes me so happy to see her beautiful little face! My 5 year old daughter watches your videos with me and when she sees her she says, “Is that baby Hannah? Aaawww, she’s so cute!” 😊
Happy birthday to John, God bless him and all of you , wonderful family and I know how things go with 8 kids I have only 7 from 16 to 14 month old and every day is full of joy and just to see everyone smiles and anger but at the end of the day is a blessed day .
Hi Jessica , I love how shinny and healthy your hair looks ; we don’t usually get to see 😀 Great job with your health ,love sent to you and your family from Indiana 😀 Happy Birthday Jon
I know this is very superficial but I’m so jealous of your hair 😍 Must be due to all the nutrients and vitamins you’re consuming. On a less superficial note, it’s heart-warming to see a family that truly appreciates each other’s company 😊
Baby Hannah is so adorable 😊! You are so blessed to have such a wonderful family and such a supportive husband. You are so busy but somehow you get it all done. I remember when my kids were little. I too had a schedule I went by. What really helped me was that my kids were great nippers. When weather was good I would take them for a walk in the stroller every day. It helped me too . Getting that fresh air was key to getting through the day.❤
Seeing these types of videos gives me hope. I have a 2 and a 3 year old and I am exhausted and overwhelmed most of the time. Knowing that one day they will be older kids who are able to contribute to the household is huge. What did your daily life look like when you just had two or three littles? Were you largely overwhelmed then, or has motherhood always come so naturally to you? I just can’t imagine having 8 kids when I’m so tired with just 2.
My favourite part was seeing all the little guys passed out in piles of blankets:)) that’s how I loved my kid the best when he was that small haha as he has been pretty hyper and full of go go go and I needed his nap to catch my breath. I absolutely see how baby Hanna now that she is bigger looks so much like John or Benji or just your older little boys in general.
You rock beloved! Love your channel which I knew RUclips when my son was born in 2004 and he was allergic to every and anything. But I am grateful for the knowledge you provide for some of us that still deal with food allergies that can kill. ❤
I like the fact that you pull your hair back , I see cooks on tv with their hair swinging everywhere, I worked in lunchroom and restaurants and had to wear hairnets I hate getting hair in my food, by the way your hair is beautiful! I am interested in hair coverings I have really short hair now , really thin, and fine so no curls.
Wow! I'm tired Jessica. You wore me out. You are an amazing lady, a great mom. You and Adam are great parents with great children as a result. Ty for sharing. I'd love to see afternoon video. Be blessed friend.
It was nice for you to let us see a little "squabble" with the girls. I often watch and think everything is always perfect in your home(when deep down I know it's not), and tend to start comparing. So, thank you for showing that bit of "normal" life😉.
I really enjoyed watching this. I have 4 kids (ages 5,4,3, and 1) and am pregnant with my 5th. We also homeschool (definitely don't homestead). I find that my days fly by so fast because the responsibilities never end. You really do have to always be 1 or 2 steps ahead of the next thing. My husband calls our kitchen a factory because theres always something happening (and always a mess in the sink). I also usually end up losing my cool at some point. The noise level really starts to get to me. I don't know how I would handle 8!
I love your content. I have learnt so much from you & admire your constant sense of calm. Thank-you for sharing your life. You and your husband should be so proud of what you have achieved, raising such a beautiful family
I always love your day in the life of videos. There so real! I also watched the other ladies this morning and discovered 2 of them for the first time so thank you! I always love seeing what you put on your pizza's. Have a great week.
All the children seems to have such different personalities. I only had one child so I cannot relate. I always smile when I get to see Levi. He is such a little character!! They are all very sweet. Thank you for sharing. ❤Happy birthday John!!🎉 I hope big brother made you a fabulous cake!!
Just a lovely video! My life is completely different but truly admire you for all you do! Bravo! Just a thought : you can add multi-color sprinkles as part of the drizzle topping for the cinnamon buns whenever there is a birthday --- kind of celebratory kickoff starting at breakfast for the day. Just a thought! Blessings!
Jessica, you are an inspiration. You make me value the little times with my kids. I work outside the home but I truly value morning times with them, as you do. You’ve made me want to wake earlier and make the most of us. Great time for some devotion too x
I know you keep your hair covered for religious purposes, but your hair is absolutely beautiful. Wow!! It would be very difficult for me to keep that beautiful hair covered if mine were as thick and beautiful as yours.
Thank you for the peek into your private life. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family with us. May the lord continue to bless you all. 🌹Rosie of Oz🇦🇺 & 🐶Omega the Cavalier🐶
Dearest, I'm ready to take a nap after watching you do all of this. When my girls were little, I was always moving about. I love for those things that sparkle to sparkle, like appliances, floors, glass doors and windows, bathroom thinks and so on. I used to climb on chairs to clean my windows, even when I was pregnant. I cannot believe I used to do all of that. Seeing you do all of this reminds me of my mother. I love her very much. You are beautiful. Ben and Hannah, aw.... *Hugs*
Love seeing this day in the life video!! Thank you. It really helps me as a new mom figure out a productive routine. Looking forward to the second half of the day video!!! ❤

That's so sweet that Grace sets her alarm to see her Dad! ❤️❤️
I couldn’t help but go “awe!” out loud … hope I didn’t wake anyone up!
@@caydancebloom I know right? So precious. 🥹
I agree ,I thought that was so beautiful ❤️❤️
I love how the teenager still graces you with his presence 😍😂

It's so sweet that your daughter gets up early just to see her dad before he goes to work
Lovely seeing taking time with children individually

I’m always in awe of people that do this so effortlessly. I couldn’t wait for the schools to reopen. 😂Love your hardworking family.
I love how you single out the “birthday kid” with meal picking and special time together.
You make that all looks so seamless and as if you just float from one thing to the other. You and your family are truly amazing and inspiring to me.
I think it is so important that children have a job and a purpose that contributes to the family.It helps them know that they are truly important.
Mom’s have the busiest jobs ever; especially with 8 children. But so rewarding. ❤
In this day & age , you are the most remarkable woman I'm aware of Jessica ❤ God bless you and your beautiful family 😊
I love the order of everything. Coming from a large family, the order and schedule always gave me comfort.
Thank you for sharing precious baby Hannah with us. It makes me so happy to see her beautiful little face! My 5 year old daughter watches your videos with me and when she sees her she says, “Is that baby Hannah? Aaawww, she’s so cute!” 😊
Little Miss Hannah melt’s our hearts when we see her smile!
She’s too cute!!🥰🥰
Watching both you & Adam together plus with the kids just warms my heart.
Happy birthday to John, God bless him and all of you , wonderful family and I know how things go with 8 kids I have only 7 from 16 to 14 month old and every day is full of joy and just to see everyone smiles and anger but at the end of the day is a blessed day .
Your children are absolutely beautiful and such a blessing
I do not know how you do it!! Those sweet children are blessed to have you as their mom! GOD bless
Hi Jessica , I love how shinny and healthy your hair looks ; we don’t usually get to see 😀 Great job with your health ,love sent to you and your family from Indiana 😀 Happy Birthday Jon
I know this is very superficial but I’m so jealous of your hair 😍 Must be due to all the nutrients and vitamins you’re consuming.

Wow, your days are so busy. I really admire the way you all pull together to make the homestead work. May the Lord bless you and keep you all xx
I can never describe just how grateful I am to you for these beautiful videos that are so full of inspiration, love and genuine warmth.

I actually shared a day in the life from ten years ago just a few weeks ago. Look back maybe 4-5 videos.

thoroughly enjoyed watching this video thank you! I feel tired and overwhelmed just watching you (I am a mum of 3 little boys). God bless you
My children alway took naps.
You rock beloved! Love your channel which I knew RUclips when my son was born in 2004 and he was allergic to every and anything. But I am grateful for the knowledge you provide for some of us that still deal with food allergies that can kill. ❤
Wonder Woman is the only words I can think of first time here look forward to next one. 😊😊
I’d really love a second-half of the day video! This was really inspiring to watch.
We have a counter with stools and we also eat meals on it to keep our large dining room table free for school during the week.
Absolutely loved seeing your first half of the day! You're such a tender mom, precious children!
a blessings of having a big my older sibling raised me and i helped with the younger ones ....you learn alot of empathy
I love your family dynamics. The love is so obvious 😊😊
Hannah looks alot like Grace. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week.
Wow. Need a reset….I would say a nap. God bless you. You have this down so smoothly.

Happy Birthday to John ❤ I really don't know how you do so much Jessica, just WOW !
A blessing to all of us from you ! Awesome way to start our day thank you.
Love watching your morning
Using a gravy dish for glaze is an excellent idea!! I’m definitely doing that!

🥰Your special moments with John, priceless.

Loved seeing so much of the kids and of the every day life. I bet you sleep well at night after all that work!
My children had sheepskins. They slept on them until they were teenagers. When my grandson was born, it was the first thing I bought for him.
happy birthday john john...
Thanks so much for sharing this. I really enjoyed watching, brought back memories of growing up in a family of 10 children all under the age of 14.
My dear lady !! I do not how you keep going at that speed. You are a great mom. 🙏🙏
I love that you post on Sunday morning. I watch it as I'm getting ready for church. ❤
Happy Birthday John. Jessica you are amazing.
I know you keep your hair covered for religious purposes, but your hair is absolutely beautiful. Wow!! It would be very difficult for me to keep that beautiful hair covered if mine were as thick and beautiful as yours.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Happy Birthday John 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I really really enjoyed watching this
It is so very nice to see that you are enjoying each and every child. It is not easy to remember to do.
Cant wait to see the second half!
This was so helpful to see how other moms do it with babies and homeschooling
Such and idyllic episode, like from a poem, blessing each other with love and obedience which has roots in love and respect for all, bless you all!
