Agree with Josh. If kids are 18, out of school and not in college, they should have the responsibility and accountability of contributing to household expenses.
I second that!
I’m Mexican-American, I paid my car insurance, gas, hygiene products, clothes, entertainment and paid my parents $180 a month. This was 10 years ago. I never looked at it as a punishment. I looked at it as contributing to the house. My mom always had home cooked meals after work and it was a blessing
Josh is totally right around the 40 minute mark! We do not watch your content for your fancy house! It is 100% for your attitude, your productivity, your humor, your Mennonite lifestyle, and most of all for YOU! ❤
Agree! I show up for the content that is encouraging to me as a mom, wife, and Christian.
100000% and I was honestly super surprised that you even had a thought like that. Your house standards or presentation hasn’t even crossed my mind. I’ve purely been motivated by your attitude, productivity and ideas on how to be productive as a SAHM with many littles, and your faith!
I’m a Christian but not a Mennonite and have to admit I totally have been buying more dresses and less grunge wear because of your channel. You’re inspiring :)
When our kids graduated high school and they were working full time they paid a small amount of rent and we put that money in a savings account and gave it to them when they moved out or got married…but they did not know that so it was just a blessing!
The best advice I have heard in so long…..”Spend time in the Word”. Wow Josh thank you!
Definitely something I needed to hear too❤
Great wisdom from Josh- Read the Word. 📕
I personally love that you guys live in an older home because it’s real for so many of us. Most RUclipsrs have houses that I know mine doesn’t come close to, it’s late 60s and dated. What keeps me coming back is how relatable your lifestyle and parenting is. You are motivational without displaying an unattainable life.
I love 1960s homes if they’re still original and haven’t been remuddled!
Children paying rent at a certain age is not a mennonite or amish only thing. The rule for me was if you were not in school, you paid rent. There was no pressure to go to college, just the expectation to be doing something and being productive. So when I graduated high school, I paid rent, incredibly minimal. My parents didn’t need my money, they wanted me to understand real life. I also had to pay for my own car expenses, personal expenses and help out at home. But they were also quick to help out when appropriate when something came up with me or my sisters. It was more about life lessons than a hard fast rule. But I don’t think any of my friends did. I enjoyed this Q&A!
A perfect marriage is two imperfect people with God's help never give up on one another. God bless you and yours! 🥰
My husband and I were married for 64 years. I wish you two the same blessing.
I was never taught to handle money. I never have been able to save and its been a disaster for me even now at 64. Teaching about money is a loving thing to do as a parent. Great Q & A.
My family and I never argue. We just have intense moments of fellowship 😊
😂😅❤
Yes😅 that's right!!❤
I am a 66 yr old grandmother to 6 soon to be 7 grandchildren and have been married to my high school sweetheart coming up on 45 years this year. I love how you sparkle with each other and seem to enjoy one another's company. Realize the years FLY by and being together after all these years is so rewarding. Remember to keep that sparkle between one another and put one another first. I always enjoy watching both of you together! I have been praying for a healthy pregnancy and baby. Wishing you all the best and looking forward to the new baby news!!! God bless!
You have just inspired me to make chocolate covered strawberries for my husband for Valentine’s Day!! Such a simple and inexpensive treat/gift for him! Us ladies need to show some love to our husbands on Valentine’s Day as well.
I am so so excited to listen to this video Megan! Also, you and Josh doing a Q&A is NOT cringey! It’s some of my favorite content! (although I respect that he doesn’t always want to be on camera of course)
Super easy and so yummy!
Raising your family so beautifully is a spiritual gift!❤️❤️❤️
I love watching you and Josh. You guys honestly remind me of my husband and I.
You guys are VERY really and not fake. Thank you for that. Yes, you can tell that you guys are in love and definitely care for each other and your family.
I'm praying for a healthy lil one.
AWE you two are so cute together. Honestly your love for each other is very obvious, you genuinely seem to like each other. I've been watching your channel since you first started Megan & i see real growth & maturity in each of you & in your relationship. Im married 44years so i have an idea of what it takes & i think you guys have it. May our good Lord continue his blessings on you both & your family. ❤❤
Loved this Q&A! You two are so encouraging and relatable. My husband and I are both the oldest children in our families as well. I really appreciate what you said about taking trips as couples - so true! ❤ Happy baby watching! Hope and pray that everything goes well for you.
I so enjoyed this..the channel does so well because of you Megan... even as a Grandma I've added things to my life after watching you( recipes. decorating..life chats...visions...) .so you appeal not just to your age group but us oldies too !! That's so nice. We've done 50yrs of marriage and now its amazing to watch our kids parent !
This was just adorable, as are you two. I truly enjoyed this. I love your take on life, marriage, kids. Well done, guys!
I just loved listening to you both interacting together. It showed how well you get along and work as a married couple. It was beautiful.
I love your Q&As Megan!! They are so informative and helpful! Praying for a healthy baby.🙂
I absolutely love these videos with both you and Josh. He is funny and I love the REAL talk between the both of you
Loved this. I always find other people's perspectives so interesting. Hope you and baby have a great labor and delivery!🫶🏻
Josh is so neat! His best Q and A yet. This was fun Megan.
I watch your channel because you encourage me in this season of mama hood, my home is not the most appealing either, but I am learning to love my home and try to create a safe and warm environment for my family. I stumbled on your channel a while ago, before becoming a mom and I love it! ❤
Ooo very excited to watch this Megan! I love a good Q& A 😊
I so enjoyed this video. It’s fun to see you two together and the love you clearly share ♥️
My mom had me pay rent once I graduated so I was 17. We are Christians. The lesson from my single mom was that learning to handle money (I also was paying for my own vehicle). Also to show I didn't need to rush out of the home and start my own life. If I couldn't handle the commitment of her small "rent" what would it be like when I move out for good.
It’s so fun when Josh is this involved with the video!
I enjoyed this a lot. Hearing Josh laugh heartily and seeing you two address marriage candidly is refreshing! I’ve been married 37 years and there is a great deal of wisdom in what you said about marriage and parenting. Those are the two hardest jobs we can have and it is an evolutionary process for both. It takes great humility to be a good parent and/or spouse. ❤
Hardest job is having to work full time outside the home and raising babies at SAME time.
My husband happened to be nearby when I watched this we enjoyed it! Chuckled at a few points, just relating to married life! Love your videos!
Oh my goodness Megan!! Your outlook on expectations! My husband says I'm negative, I just say I'm mentally preparing myself for the worst case scenario. Then I'm pleasantly surprised if it's bad but not awful 😂😅 This was great you two! Wonderful chat!
Its great seeing yall on camera together and see more personality from Josh
Love your videos
I always leave encouraged
Even us Baptists have kids who turn their backs on ‘religion “ at times. Both of our kids left the church for a bit, but both have returned to God. They have to individually get to the point where they acknowledge their need for God in their lives. Give them the foundation and trust Him for the rest of it. Thanks, Josh and Megan. Love your values❤
I really enjoyed this video and by far the best q&a yall have filmed.
Josh seems so happy and genuine and relaxed so much more in this video then past videos.
Megan you got your self such a wonderful man! And visa versa Josh you got your self an amazing woman!
You complement each other so well. You can't fake that.
I will be showing my husband this video and hes going to get some good laughs in!
Thank you both for sharing your experiences and life hood here for the world.
I'm sure it's stressful at times but yall are making differences in my life forsure!
❤️
Have a blessed weekend and I pray you have a smooth delivery! Congratulations to the both of you!
Can't wait to see baby Fox!
Josh said it beautifully, we watch your channel for the awesome content, for you Megan being so genuine and fun! For being a good mom and wife and for caring so much about your family 🌻
I love your Q&A's... Both of you are so great together. You truly have love and respect for each other. I love learning about your culture.
I always enjoy your Q&A's with Josh. This one was particular sweet with the chocolate strawberries and lovely glasses filled with sparkling apple cider. ❤
Spending time and thinking what your spouse would enjoy and little things you do in a marriage, makes your marriage a safe place. ❤
It was good to hear from both perspectives, to some challenging and other humorous.questions and responses.
Thank for your doing Q&A.
Great video Megan & Josh!! My husband and I are both oldest, we both have a hard time admitting wrong and compromising. But we've figured out what works for us :)
Thank you so much for these Q & A's! You both live what you believe, your marriage, and how you both raise your children is such a wonderful example of God in your lives!
This was fun. The love that you two seem to have for one another really is something special. 💖
I love "passionately discussing"
Loved your video! You both get along so well that I think you should write a parenting book and marriage book. I loved how supportive Josh is of your RUclips channel. How willing he is to step in and help out with the kids, is priceless. Also, Josh was right about people not watching your channel for your house, although I would trade homes with you in a heartbeat! I started watching you because I didn't know anything about Mennonites and was interested to learn. I love the way you focus on the important things in life like family, taking care of the home and just making the job of being a mom wonderful. You lift my spirits in every video and remind me that what I do as a mom every day is the most important job in the world. Thank you for creating your channel to help other moms find their worth in the world! I'm so excited for your next video about the new baby!
I love your house, it has your personality. And your humor as a couple will keep you going😂
I love watching you guys. Love your videos y’all have a blessed Thursday.❤❤
Your home is great and it is also ok to update or renovate it. But I watch you because you’re interesting! You’re raising your kids like my husband and I did! You’re doing great!!! Keep it up!!! 💕
Megan your content and home are beautiful, so love your lifestyle.😊
I loved the way Josh looked at you Megan when you were talking about being attracted to one another 😊❤
Megan also looked at Josh very lovingly! They are a beautiful couple, very much in love, with with adorable children!
hey girl- Oh I just loved this! Y'all are the best😀😘 So funny together to. Have a wonderful weekend🥰
I love what Josh said about prayer and reading the Bible. Prayer that is uninformed by the Word of God is going to be ineffective for the most part. The Word should direct and inform our prayer. Prayer must be in agreement with God, so knowing His Word is the key. I'm glad to hear Josh is digging into the Bible more.
Once again your home is beautiful! It truly saddens me to hear you say that your kitchen is “beat up.” I have children your age and I have taught my kids to appreciate what they have and be careful with their words. There may be people watching your channel that have much less than you and a home that is truly “beat up” and dream of having a kitchen as nice as yours. You wouldn’t want someone else to see what they have as less than… I never wanted my kids to hear me say anything negative about their home as if I was ashamed or unhappy. I was always thankful for what I had and when I could afford to make updates and changes then I did but never said anything about it being done because it looked awful, etc.. Our kids are listening to all we say. God has blessed you so much! I am praying for a smooth delivery of your baby!
Amazing couple, love the way you talk and complete each other. Blessings and Prayers to your beautiful family. ❤
Love that huge measuring cup!!!
This is great! 😄 I watch your content because of your down-to-earth and driven personality! Honestly, love seeing less of the aesthetically pleasing perfect houses and more just solid, godly family environments/homes! 👍🏼 Thanks for your awesome content and all your hard work!!
Anxiously waiting for the baby update !!!
I love your kitchen! I always admire how cute it is when you cook.
Love Josh’s laugh!🩷
Thank you for working so hard with your content! I’m just getting started with my own channel and yours is truly inspiring!!❤ Also, I will be praying for your family and baby number 4.🙏 May God bless you!!☺️✝️
You're awesome, Megan💛
I lived this video so much. You two are cute together. Yes we all go through difficult times in marriage and I am grateful for your inspiration. Hugs to both
You have the most beautiful boho chic house I will use your decor ideas when I get my own place! Such a lovely video
This was so real and not cringey at all. And hahahaha Josh, such a perfect ending comment ⛳️
My husband and I are both oldest children, we have a similar dynamic as you both. Love it, that both of you can be yourself with each other. Same with my husband, we can be ourselves and work on things together
Josh has the best attitude - he's definitely the calm one!
That’s hilarious “passionately discussing” !
I LOVE your Q and A videos Megan!!!!! Your glowing and look beautiful! Continued prayers for you and baby 💖🙏
Thank you so much!! We appreciate them!
@@MeganFoxUnlocked I can totally relate to the disagreement over screen time because I feel the same way as you do about it! I have to say you and Josh are just adorable together God bless you guys❤
I really enjoyed this one, and learned so much about Josh, a wonderful man. Stay in love, keep the romance, and always be each others best friend.
You are a cute couple! Fun question answer time!
My husband is Catholic Brazilian. It’s cultural that kids work and live at home during and post university until they either get married or move to a different city to work.
I like the idea of having kids 20+ pay a nominal amount every month to help with household expenses. Some parents have their kids pay a nominal fee monthly and put it in a savings account for them to move out (pay a down payment, help with wedding, etc.)
Luv your videos the way u do…. It is who u r….. enjoy watching!
Y'all are adorable!
Minute 19 had me cracking up. Y'all are hilarious 😅
Very sweet video😊❤️
I’ll watch 10 years from now!🙋🏼♀️
I think your amazing couple, it is nice to see Q and A. It is just nice see josh put his part to it.
Your home is lovely!
Love these videos with Josh .. strawberries ❤️❤️..praying g for a healthy little one to join this family soon .. love the content .. and I think y'all are the perfect example of Mennonite family .. God first wise with money . Family values .. time together .. keep up the great work !!! 🙏❤️❤️
Wow! Josh no expectation, you got it make it. Blessed you both 🙏❤🙏
I’m an oldest married to a perfect middle and he is the most incredible person! He is also endlessly patient with me which I think really helps 😂
My sister and her husband are both the oldest 😊perfect match! They are both very driven and in charge. ❤ Love your channel! Your Awesome
Fun video! ❤
I am an oldest and my husband is a youngest. 😳 there is a HUGE difference between us and how we do things, especially parenting.
Megan - I believe being a mother is a spiritual gift. Not only do you teach your viewers, you're teaching your children.
I was thinking that too. That her spiritual gift is teaching and leading by example ❤
Spiritual gifts..I believe you can operate in many gifts and that there is a great blessing in focusing on excersizing the gifting you are strongest in.
Love, love, love the Q and As!!!! You two are such an example of a good relationship ❤
Good luck Megan for your upcoming baby... May the Lord be with you and spread his love and care to you all. with love from Cornwall uk
Love the video!! Have never commented on one of your videos but I live in Pa! My husband and I are both the oldest.
Josh, you got it. Happy wife happy life.
How beautiful I love when Josh said that
He wants her wife to love the house that he is providing ❤❤❤ so cute !!!
Josh is very wise and funny ❤❤❤
1) I’m here for your personality. The first video I watch was my curiosity about your Mennonite beliefs. You…your personality, temperament, sweetness, etc… is why I stayed. I enjoy watching info about what you’re doing to your house or whatever but it’s because I already like you as to why I watch. If I didn’t care for you and your personality I wouldn’t care to hear about your house and life either. I’ve learned from my personal experience at watching videos that when I really click with the person and find them interesting, I stick around for the long haul. I can imagine sitting in your sunroom with you and chatting it up. That’s why I stick around.
2) Your husband is so lovely. I hope to marry someone similar to his temperament and simplicity. The way he says what he feels and thinks and isn’t complicated is so great. 😊 And “I just want to provide a house my wife loves to live in”!!!! Oh my heart! So so sweet. If I was your sister or mom, I would be so grateful that God have you such a beautiful man. 🥰 I’m not related to you and I’m so happy you have him. 😁
You guys are the best good luck on your future and the baby
You and Josh are really good together. It is a blessing to see how much he loves you.❤
You amazing together, so nice to see you both open to conversation,
God bless your beautiful family
Praying for you and hope one day we can meet with our families
We have been married 35 years we still have the differences you are talking about. They are not as often now. I feel we have learned when to stand our ground and when not to
Yes, when I switched from my business phone over to personal it took years and they finally just said to leave it a business phone and use it as a personal one.
I'm thinking it could go back to multi - generations living together and everyone contributing to all the bills again. Housing is so much! We've been told here in Utah anyways that if you haven't bought a house yet then it can't be done. It can only happen if you have equity already.
That's the most I ever saw Josh laugh. It was nice to see that side of him.
I enjoyed helping my parents pay the bills. It made me feel important. I lived in the house they worked hard for. They spent so much into me growing up, and now was my chance to repay some of it .
I feel it also taught me responsibility.
I agree with everything you said, Josh. If YOU didn't keep Megan grounded she would fly away! lol God bless you guys
