    Loved this one, Laura! My dream as a little girl was being a wife and mommy, but severe health issues had doctors telling me as an older teen that my dream was impossible. Nothing is impossible with God- restored health, a beautiful marriage of over 14 years and seven precious children! It is hard work, but there is nothing I'd rather be busy with. Blessings on your many labors of love!

      Quick tip for microwave from ex house cleaner. Microwave a glass with water and vinegar for 5 minutes carefully remove glass and just wipe out.

    I loved being a stay home mom, only had three but it was the best thing I ever did and would do it all over again and maybe had a few more❤️ I’m now a grandmother of 7 beautiful grandchildren !

    I agree with you about children learning where their food comes from. I used to teach 3-4 years old class at church. One Sunday we were talking about the kids’ favorite foods. I asked a little guy where French fries come from and he told me MacDonald’s.😆 Kids are so honest and comical. I also enjoy, yes enjoy, cleaning my fridge. No one even knows it’s been done but it makes me feel better. Food products pass their expiration date’s quickly. Love your channel! Love that you relish being a stay a home mom! Those little legs hanging out of your wrap are just the sweetest thing. I miss that.😊

    Loved your video Laura! Being a mom never was at the forefront of my mind as a little girl. I wasn’t surrounded by babies at all there were no babies in my family I was the youngest. The first time I ever held a newborn was my own child at 22 years old and that was also the first time I changed a diaper 😅 I was so nervous. God had changed my heart and I love being a homemaker and having as many children as God blessed us with 💗 your salad looked delicious 🥰

    When I hear you say that you always wanted to be a mom, it reminds me of a little story about my little granddaughter. She just turned 6, and last year when she started school, I bought her and her brother, those little blackboards with all the info on it for the upcoming year, and when you turn it over, you do the same for the schoolyear just finished up. One of the questions it asks on the front of it along with name, age, height, weight, etc, it asks the child “what do you want to be when you grow up”. So my grandson wrote, I want to be an influencer (just like Laura and her sisters are), and my granddaughter wanted her mom to write down “I want to be a real mom”. Lol. Her mom, my daughter in law and I and everyone who read this had a good laugh. Her mom said, what do you mean, a real mom, aren’t I a real mom to her (my daughter in law is an awesome mom). She replied yes, but she still wanted to be a real mom. So funny. Everyone who read or saw it on FBook had a good laugh about it. We still don’t know in her mind, what a “real” mom was. Maybe it’s one like Laura and Lisa, they are “real” moms, the real deal! ;)

    You are so wholesome Laura. I can listen to you talk all day about cooking and your kids, your housework, etc. I struggle to put on one meal per day and not sure how you do it 3 times per day with 7 kids, no less, uh! I guess the difference is you like cooking and I don’t. To me it’s a chore, I wish it wasn’t but it is what it is. You’re a good mom and wife Laura. Keep up the great job you’re doing. :)

    Always enjoy your videos. Nothing more important than the job of being a wife, mother and keeper of the home. I grocery shop about every 10 days. I make menus for several days, but they aren't designated any certain day. Some of easier for busy or something unexpected that comes up. I always shop my frig, freezer and pantry to see what I have left and what I need for the recipes I have planned.
