    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 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.

    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.

    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.

    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. 😊

    He is right, you don't. Ever beautiful you are!!!!! So are all those 8 and hubby!

    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

    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! ❤

    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.

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.❤

    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.

    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.

    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!
