hi colleen! i’m an architect major in college right now and here’s the answer to your slanted room question. even “flat” roofs have to be slightly slated for water runoff (otherwise your roof will cave in from rain damage). sometimes when houses get older and the foundation is settling you can start to see that slant more and more. hope this helps!
Gen X here. I'm so excited to see how your kids turn out. Having parents that play with you and engage in your world is a marvel to me. I know everyone is saying Gen Z is soft, idk about that. But I think your Gen A kids are going to be kind, funny, creative and confident adults. I'm excited to watch that develop.
Honestly, I hate that question - “what would you 10 years ago think of you today?”. Let’s be real…over 10 years our goals, desires, priorities, our definition of “exciting”, what we think we should be proud of…those things will all change drastically, especially if we are maturing and growing as people. While I get being bummed that some things changed, or some goals weren’t achieved, impressing a more immature, less thoughtful version of ourselves is a pretty silly goal. You’re in a new phase of your life that 10 years ago you couldn’t have even imagined. Give yourself the grace to realize that this is what this phase of life looks like for you, and remember that even if you’re missing some things from a previous phase, you don’t have any clue what your next chapter looks like! Desires that live in our souls have a way of coming back around, even when we least expect it.
The Colleen from right now is SO STRONG. You should definitely be proud of her. Not many people could go through what you've gone through and come back. It was so brave of you to start filming again. I would never have that strength or self confidence. You are amazing, Colleen. Keep doing everything you want to do and don't worry about what anyone thinks. I'm here to tell you that we love and believe in you. Also, you are a rockstar of a mom. I WISH I would have been half as good of a mother to my children. The "mom guilt" is real. Anyway, be proud of yourself and your beautiful life ❤
YES PLEASE do another swiftie video! Can we vote for first impressions of ✌🏼 album and would love to know an update after you digested all the songs and lyrics! ❤❤❤
You've always been hard on yourself, Colleen. I have been following your career/family for so long that I (and my family) refer to you as my friend Colleen. You've ALWAYS been an amazing, caring, talented, funny, inspiring, loving, empathetic, and generous person. Everyone has regrets, but I think your younger self would be in awe of what an incredibly strong person you've had to be and not lose yourself in the muck. And through all the crap, GIRL, we love you.
i do have a story about the source of certain insecurities, for anyone who cares: 1) my naturally curly hair… when i was in elementary school my mom would put mousse in my hair before i went to school, so it looked wet and curly pretty much all day. i was constantly getting comments about how weird it was that my hair always looked wet. 2) my stomach… let me preface this part by saying i’m very active and not overweight by any means, and at the point in this story i was especially skinny and I didn’t have much muscle. anyway so i used to do gymnastics, and we wear leotards at practice. i had this “trick” that i used to do where i would purposely stick out my stomach and the other girls thought it was pretty cool. i knew it looked like i had a really big stomach when i did this, so i made sure everyone knew i was doing it on purpose. anyway one day one of my teammates asked why i was purposely sticking out my stomach, even though i wasn’t. i had a stomach ache and i (at the age of 8) wasn’t focusing on “sucking in” my stomach, and this girl thought i was purposely making my stomach look big. ever since then i’ve been especially conscious about how my stomach looks. anyways thanks for reading if you did 😊
I’m going through a lot in my life right now but when I watch your videos I forget what I’m going through and I feel happy and even smiling thankyou for sharing your vlogs maybe it feels like a job to you but to us it feels like a safe place to be here on ur channel Colleen forever🫶🏻❤️
Here’s my favourite poem I think you’ll like, about cleaning less and enjoying life instead. It’s called Dust If You Must by Rose Milligan. Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better To paint a picture, or write a letter, Bake a cake, or plant a seed; Ponder the difference between want and need? Dust if you must, but there's not much time, With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb; Music to hear, and books to read; Friends to cherish, and life to lead. Dust if you must, but the world's out there With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair; A flutter of snow, a shower of rain, This day will not come around again. Dust if you must, but bear in mind, Old age will come and it's not kind. And when you go (and go you must) You, yourself, will make more dust.
I'm convinced that people with blue eyes see colors differently! I remember seeing something on this many years ago but I think it has to do with how much light gets through the eye my husband and I often see colors differently but my children all with my dark eyes see the same as I
The future is yours, make it what you want. Someone sent me this the other day because of some issues I’m having. It said “The most powerful beings in the world, are the ones that have endured the most” …… I’m trying to reap that power from all the trauma and you can too. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Colleen, I’m a Kindergarten teacher. The markers that you were using looked fun. If you google “paint sticks” you might like to try those. They are a mess free way to “paint” things and they dry super quick. From one crafty girly to another💕
Ttq: have you ever thought about using some of the rocks you have tumbled and putting them in the bottom of a fish tank for your kids?? I think they would love the fish tank and it would have your special touch to it❤️
Thanks for the shout-out Colleen! So is that a no on singing Who Will Save Your Soul? 😊 I am sorry for that woman who made you feel bad about yourself when you were younger. How ugly of her, I wonder how insecure one would have to be in order to make a child feel insecure and bad about themselves.
Hey Colleen! I think that if the younger version of yourself was watching yourself right now, they would be proud of yourself for your strength in moving forward and finding joy in the place you are right now. It’s a place we all find ourselves, in fact, it’s the place most of us also are. The middle place. Love to you from a fellow middle placer. May we continue to find our joy.
Tortilla Talk: I also suffer from a lot of the same mental health issues as you (severe anxiety, skin picking, depression, and ADHD). I’ve been on medication for years and tried cognitive-behavioral therapy but nothing ever completely worked for me. I recently found a new therapist who specializes in EMDR therapy, which “involves moving your eyes a specific way while you process traumatic memories,” especially childhood memories. I’m curious if you’ve tried EMDR therapy or other types of therapy besides CBT and what types have helped you the most? Hope you’re doing well!
With the beach footage from that vlog, I really loved the slow motion rock hunting with the dramatic music!! I know you said you didn’t mean to put it in slo mo but it honestly looked so cool!! 🪨 🌊
PLEASE DO TTPD PART TWOOOO!!! I need it bc I’m obsessed and I need someone to obsess over it with me. I don’t care if it’s 13 hrs long I’ll still watch ever second🥺🫶🏻
We are the same age, and I tell my boyfriend pretty much about each vlog you post. I feel like we are best friends as I talk about you. Just remember you are AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL! SWEET! CARING! FUNNY! ENTERTAINING! AND ONE OF THE BEST BEST BEST MOMS OUT THERE!
My introduction to Jewel was when I got a book at the book fair with her on the cover. I still have the book to this day. So random, because I don't care about biographies, but that's the book I chose. Ha My favorite song of hers now is, '1am (Good Day)'.
Please Be proud of yourself and how you have come thru your last year. You have inspired me to keep my chin up. Your 10 year ago self should be so proud of you as a person as I know your family, friends and supporters are!!
For the first time in a long time seeing someone react to a "how would past you feel about now you?" Being so RAW is everything. Thank you. Because I think so many of us reminisce and get hung up on what ifs. And missed opportunities but it doesn't mean we aren't grateful for what we are or where we've been or what we have. Its just not what we planned. And it's okay to think that to an extent thats disappointing.
I have a friend that will claim that blue color is purple. It's like a royal blue/indigo. I guess you can get away with calling it indigo, and indigo is a cross between blue and purple. But I'm with you, it's blue, and I think it's interesting (and weird) that some people will call it purple.
Everyone sees color a little bit differently. I had a full on existential crisis when I figured out that it is fully possible that someone thinks blue the as the hue I would call green but we'll never know because they have learned that it's blue. Color as we know it is just a social construct and it honestly blows my mind.
When I see you about to cry Colleen it makes me want to cry 🥺 your so amazing and a wonderful person, it would be a dream to see you perform one day ❤️ I know performing will happen for you again your just taking a well deserved break, please don’t ever forget how brave, talented, kind, special and how important you are 💜
OMG. You just reminded me of a a story. So about Jewel. The other day when you played her I went to comment. And embarrassing as it could possibly be I guess the video had ended and went to the next video suggestion. It was a guy who does eating challenges, so he had only minutes before posted this video. And instead of commenting on a video when you were singing Jewel, I comment about how much I love Jewel. And that she is the best singer ever and on and on (ADHD spewing some lengthy story) completely believing I was commenting your video where I always comment lengthy stories...... 30 seconds later he responds, "wow, cool". Then shortly after comments "LOL". I was so embarrassed.🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Just thought I'd share since you reminded me by discussing Jewel. 14:31 My favorite song is Foolish Games. And I heard the opposite about her as a person. I heard she is incredibly nice and very genuine.
Dear Colleen, I just wanted to let you know this is how we know adults have always just been filtering what they think is a "beautiful kid". My youngest (Flynn's age) was standing next to me as I finished this video and he said, "oh, is that what she looked like as a kid?" I answered him, "yes," and he said, "Oh, that's nice!" His older sister came over to see (10) and she added, "oh, she was pretty."
TTQ- Are you going to craft with your sea glass? I think you’d come up with the most creative ways to use them and make them into something so incredible!!! Also, will you be doing a garden tour yet?? I’m so desperate to see all of your pretty flowers and trees! Love you!!
Hi! Fellow twin NICU mom here! My boys, Benny and Theo, were born 5 months after Maisy and Wesley. Your videos have helped get me through those rough twin pregnancy days and have honestly help prepare me for the heart shattering NICU days. Thank you for that! Anyways, TTQ… have you seen the Tik Toks of those picky pads?? I feel like you’d not only like to make those, but also they could help you and be a replacement for your picking behaviors? (This is the behavior analyst in me speaking.)
I see the glass as blue. Some people see blue and purple differently. I can’t understand someone thinking a jacaranda tree has blue flowers. They look purple to me. I had the same reaction to fireflies on my first trip to Ann Arbor during the summer. It was so cool!
Growing up in st Thomas usvi, I can remember the e first time seeing firefly’s and snow, I still cry seeing snow each year in Michigan and it reminds me of the first time every time!
The first time I was insecure was my dad and mom having a convo late at night, I was sneaking to the bathroom and I overheard my dad expressing how he was scared I’d become fat and all this and from then on yep I hid my body forever from my family and the world
I love your Lissie McGuire sweatshirt. I loved Lizzie McGuire when it was on Disney. I wish it would come back. Flynn is so cute and goofy. I love his giggles and laugh. It makes me smile.
I think you should be proud of yourself back then and now, you are one amazing human yes as a human we make mistakes. Don’t let anyone nor anything discourage you. Or make you feel less then. It’s ok to cry all the time!!❤❤❤
The opening with Flynn was the Flynn EART Day content I didn’t know I needed. Every time he got up close to the camera, I half expected him to say “BABE-EH! BABE-EH!” 😂
My 45th birthday is on Sunday and it would mean so much to me if you could possibly say happy birthday to me maybe next TTT?? Thank you so much for being YOU and just being such an AMAZING woman and mother!!! Love ya girl 💜💜💜
On April 20th my youngest great grandson turned 2, his papa(grandpa) turned 50 on the 22 nd. He's my 1st Born. My youngest grandson will be 21 on the 30th🎉 so many Birthday wishes this month.
I believe they are also called purple sails because there are purple ones as well. I saw some last year. They were mostly purple all over from what I remember. 💜💜💜
Nope nope nope! Do not go there... we all have journey's that grow us, 20 colleen knows nothing life puts in front of her, nor does present day colleen (and me) we grow and change and you ma'am are a beautiful example❤
Yes PLEASE record a reaction to the 2nd half of the Taylor Swift album! I so enjoyed watching your reaction in the first video! I think my favorite song overall is Albatross!
i like that comment about Colleen's corner and i kinda agree that ttq is a grown up version of that but i very much prefer how unedited and raw and a lot of times more vulnerable Colleen is on ttq.. it just seems like she's talking directly with us, like we're friends! i think that's how you build a connection with your audience ps: i love that Colleen is into Chappell Roan bc im a new fan too and im obsessed with herrrrr
Loved your correction/clarification/reframe of your thought process and emotions at the end. Now that is fucking growth. and you deserve that!
hi colleen! i’m an architect major in college right now and here’s the answer to your slanted room question. even “flat” roofs have to be slightly slated for water runoff (otherwise your roof will cave in from rain damage). sometimes when houses get older and the foundation is settling you can start to see that slant more and more. hope this helps!
OMG PLEASE DO A TTPD PART 2 IVE BEEN WAITING FOR IT.
Same
Me too😢

PLEEEEEEASE film the 2nd half of TTPD!!! I loved watching you react to the first half! I have no swiftie friends so I felt less alone 😭

not me LOOOOOKING for the broccoli in your teeth 🤣
That sea glass is most definitely blue! My 10-year-old self was a brat. I’m sure your kids are and will continue to be proud of you!
YES PLEASE do another swiftie video! Can we vote for first impressions of ✌🏼 album and would love to know an update after you digested all the songs and lyrics! ❤❤❤
You are such an awesome mum - Flynn is a credit to you and Erik ❤
You've always been hard on yourself, Colleen. I have been following your career/family for so long that I (and my family) refer to you as my friend Colleen.

Seeing Flynn in the beginning setting up the whole Vlog with you is warming my heart way too much.
YESSS DO A REACTION OF THE SECOND HALF AGAIN OF TTPD!!! i loved the first video!!
Flynn is so adorable he’s so big can now believe we’re watching him grow up 🤍
I’m going through a lot in my life right now but when I watch your videos I forget what I’m going through and I feel happy and even smiling thankyou for sharing your vlogs maybe it feels like a job to you but to us it feels like a safe place to be here on ur channel Colleen forever🫶🏻❤️
At 2:54 the face Finn makes when he says "No one more day". Is so incredibly cute. Reminds me a lot of my 5 year old.
Here’s my favourite poem I think you’ll like, about cleaning less and enjoying life instead. It’s called Dust If You Must by Rose Milligan.
Dust if you must, but wouldn't it be better
To paint a picture, or write a letter,
Bake a cake, or plant a seed;
Ponder the difference between want and need?
Dust if you must, but there's not much time,
With rivers to swim, and mountains to climb;
Music to hear, and books to read;
Friends to cherish, and life to lead.
Dust if you must, but the world's out there
With the sun in your eyes, and the wind in your hair;
A flutter of snow, a shower of rain,
This day will not come around again.
Dust if you must, but bear in mind,
Old age will come and it's not kind.
And when you go (and go you must)
You, yourself, will make more dust.
just a stranger but i hope im a mum like you one day you're incredible 🩷🩷
I'm convinced that people with blue eyes see colors differently! I remember seeing something on this many years ago but I think it has to do with how much light gets through the eye my husband and I often see colors differently but my children all with my dark eyes see the same as I
I think you're right! I've had the same experience with my husband and son who have blue eyes, and mine are brown. So fascinating!
I need these paint pens!! I would love a vlog about all the kids craft supplies you have/like/use
The future is yours, make it what you want. Someone sent me this the other day because of some issues I’m having. It said “The most powerful beings in the world, are the ones that have endured the most” …… I’m trying to reap that power from all the trauma and you can too. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Colleen, I’m a Kindergarten teacher. The markers that you were using looked fun. If you google “paint sticks” you might like to try those. They are a mess free way to “paint” things and they dry super quick. From one crafty girly to another💕
This is the most well adjusted, joyful kid I think I've ever seen. Good job with the parenting!
Ttq: have you ever thought about using some of the rocks you have tumbled and putting them in the bottom of a fish tank for your kids?? I think they would love the fish tank and it would have your special touch to it❤️
Thats such a good idea! 😃
What a beautiful idea!
Thanks for the shout-out Colleen! So is that a no on singing Who Will Save Your Soul? 😊 I am sorry for that woman who made you feel bad about yourself when you were younger. How ugly of her, I wonder how insecure one would have to be in order to make a child feel insecure and bad about themselves.
Omg why isn’t more friends talking about how adorable Flynn is his little laugh is so cute and adorable
Chappell’s performance on the Colbert show sealed the deal for me and I became an instant fan!
Hey Colleen! I think that if the younger version of yourself was watching yourself right now, they would be proud of yourself for your strength in moving forward and finding joy in the place you are right now. It’s a place we all find ourselves, in fact, it’s the place most of us also are. The middle place. Love to you from a fellow middle placer. May we continue to find our joy.
I really enjoyed watching your reaction in real time for the first part of the album! I think you should do the same for part 2!
We need more Flynn content. He is adorable and makes me so happy
That craft would make an amazing Mother's Day gift for your mom!!!
Wow!! Flynn is so big!! I still remember him crawling and saying dardar. 🤯❤

I really liked listening to TTPD part one and would love to listen to TTPD the anthology with you ❤

Hello Colleen, Flynn is growing up! Good Afternoon! That flower pot is nice. Its nice to see you again.
You don't need the podcast lighting to be perfect. We love you just the way you are. ❤
You and Flynn singing together was adorable! Also please do a part 2 reaction to TTPD
Please Be proud of yourself and how you have come thru your last year. You have inspired me to keep my chin up. Your 10 year ago self should be so proud of you as a person as I know your family, friends and supporters are!!

I went rock searching at the beach for the first time and absolutely loved doing it ❤
When I see you about to cry Colleen it makes me want to cry 🥺 your so amazing and a wonderful person, it would be a dream to see you perform one day ❤️ I know performing will happen for you again your just taking a well deserved break, please don’t ever forget how brave, talented, kind, special and how important you are 💜
Right? I would love to go to a Colleen Cabaret Show!
I love you Colleen!
Erik can be management, but you are the talent we want to see.
Does Flynn know people eat snails?
I see blue jelly fish and blue glass…. 💙
OMG. You just reminded me of a a story. So about Jewel. The other day when you played her I went to comment. And embarrassing as it could possibly be I guess the video had ended and went to the next video suggestion. It was a guy who does eating challenges, so he had only minutes before posted this video.

I heard she is incredibly nice and very genuine.
That's happened to me before! Now, I ALWAYS pause the video while I comment 😂
Colleen you BETTER record your reactions again…I am looking out for that video every day
Flynn is such a little mini Colleen omg 😂❤❤❤
Dear Colleen, I just wanted to let you know this is how we know adults have always just been filtering what they think is a "beautiful kid". My youngest (Flynn's age) was standing next to me as I finished this video and he said, "oh, is that what she looked like as a kid?" I answered him, "yes," and he said, "Oh, that's nice!"

Also, will you be doing a garden tour yet?? I’m so desperate to see all of your pretty flowers and trees!
Love you!!
Hi! Fellow twin NICU mom here! My boys, Benny and Theo, were born 5 months after Maisy and Wesley. Your videos have helped get me through those rough twin pregnancy days and have honestly help prepare me for the heart shattering NICU days. Thank you for that! Anyways, TTQ… have you seen the Tik Toks of those picky pads?? I feel like you’d not only like to make those, but also they could help you and be a replacement for your picking behaviors? (This is the behavior analyst in me speaking.)
I see the glass as blue. Some people see blue and purple differently. I can’t understand someone thinking a jacaranda tree has blue flowers. They look purple to me.
I had the same reaction to fireflies on my first trip to Ann Arbor during the summer. It was so cool!
My fav song is down bad, i can do it with a broken heart, and MORE!!
YES please do a part 2 of listening to the second half of the album!!
Those sea creatures are totes blue. But I can see how the sea glass would be considered indigo which is a more purpley blue but still blue in my eyes
Growing up in st Thomas usvi, I can remember the e first time seeing firefly’s and snow, I still cry seeing snow each year in Michigan and it reminds me of the first time every time!
Colleen, you’ve MEET Taylor swift before?!! I stumbled upon that video from like 5 years ago. 2024 you would freak out!
The first time I was insecure was my dad and mom having a convo late at night, I was sneaking to the bathroom and I overheard my dad expressing how he was scared I’d become fat and all this and from then on yep I hid my body forever from my family and the world
I love your Lissie McGuire sweatshirt. I loved Lizzie McGuire when it was on Disney. I wish it would come back. Flynn is so cute and goofy. I love his giggles and laugh. It makes me smile.
TTQ for Flynn: what do you want to be when you grow up?
My husband and I always see that color different. I see blue , he sees purple. 😂
I think you should be proud of yourself back then and now, you are one amazing human yes as a human we make mistakes. Don’t let anyone nor anything discourage you. Or make you feel less then. It’s ok to cry all the time!!❤❤❤
The opening with Flynn was the Flynn EART Day content I didn’t know I needed. Every time he got up close to the camera, I half expected him to say “BABE-EH! BABE-EH!” 😂
I know your kids are 2 and not 3 but PLEASE do the “song written by a 3 year old” thing with them!! AND AN UPDATED “MY FAMILY” VIDEOOOO k thanks💜
My 45th birthday is on Sunday and it would mean so much to me if you could possibly say happy birthday to me maybe next TTT?? Thank you so much for being YOU and just being such an AMAZING woman and mother!!! Love ya girl 💜💜💜
PLEASE make a video of your reaction to the second half of ttpd!! I love watching other swifties’ reactions! Love you lots!
I’ve been getting so many Ross ads on your videos now!! lol iconic
"today we have to play with cars, check on chickens, and we have to eat lunch" oh to be your child colleen
On April 20th my youngest great grandson turned 2, his papa(grandpa) turned 50 on the 22 nd. He's my 1st Born. My youngest grandson will be 21 on the 30th🎉 so many Birthday wishes this month.
I believe they are also called purple sails because there are purple ones as well. I saw some last year. They were mostly purple all over from what I remember. 💜💜💜
That blue glass and not-jellyfish are kind of Indigo Blue to me. I'd call it Blue. But it is close to Purple on the wheel.
I looove the Lizzie McGuire shirt! Where did you get that? 🤩 Also the hand flower is such a fun earth day craft
The blue sea creatures are actually indigo which is blue and purple colors mixed together. I know cuz I’m Indigo
My Grandmother from California was freaked out at the fire flies when she came to visit us on the East Coast.
Thats my favorite on her new album too! Will you do a review part 2?
Yes please do TTPD pt2!!
Looks like dark blue to me. I'm with you on it being blue not purple. Just a different, darker hue of blue.
tortilla talk question: react to the second half of TTPD with erik!!!!
Nope nope nope! Do not go there... we all have journey's that grow us, 20 colleen knows nothing life puts in front of her, nor does present day colleen (and me) we grow and change and you ma'am are a beautiful example❤
Omg please record yourself hearing it!! I cried!!
You should look up tumbled rock birdhouses! I think that would be a fun project to do with your rocks!
Flynn is SO SILLY AND CUTTEE AHHHH
Your kids would definitely be proud of who you are right now Colleen ❤
Omg that lady being mean to you enrages me!!!!! People are so mean and all my life even as an adult they say mean things!!
Yes PLEASE record a reaction to the 2nd half of the Taylor Swift album! I so enjoyed watching your reaction in the first video! I think my favorite song overall is Albatross!
I LOVE WAOLOM SO MUCH AHH!! LOVE THE ACCAPELLA FROM U AND FLYNN
More Taylor thoughts, rankings, and more PLEASE I loved listening to the album through your eyes
i like that comment about Colleen's corner and i kinda agree that ttq is a grown up version of that but i very much prefer how unedited and raw and a lot of times more vulnerable Colleen is on ttq.. it just seems like she's talking directly with us, like we're friends! i think that's how you build a connection with your audience
ps: i love that Colleen is into Chappell Roan bc im a new fan too and im obsessed with herrrrr
tortilla talk question: pleaseee do a video on your thoughts on eternal sunshine!!!
i grew up by the beach too I lived my entire life on an island in BC! but i have never ever ever seen those creatures in my life
Hi Colleen I am excited for tortilla talk Tuesday!
Colleen thank you so much for answering my question! 😊
tortilla talk question: do a tortilla talk with erik to make up for the podcast!
So sweet watching Flynn and you sing T Swift together!
