    What a blessing it is watch your video/vlogs Kim. Tuesdays are special now as I look so forward to them each week. I am a Momma of five . Three girls and two boys. Faith, family and cooking, are all dear to my heart as well. I love thrifting, cleaning with natural products , gardening etc. so your videos always touch my heart and inspire me. You have such a precious family and I’m so excited for you with another sweet baby boy on the way. 💕

    I'm from Hawaii, we dont get much rain here. I love watching your videos! I admire you on so many levels! Just a suggestion from a mom of three boys. The saftey locks they have for the cabinets might be a thought when your little buddle of joy makes his debut. It will make your days a little less stressful and one less thing to pick up. Again just a suggestion. You are doing a phenomenal job as a mommy and a domestic engineer! Keep the vlogs coming please.

    Amazing greenhouse!! All those beautiful geraniums ❤️🫶 Thanks for sharing! I would agree with the others about a toy vacuum! One more old mom idea… have little man help you put the things away that he took out. I know it will take longer and it’s often just easier to do it yourself but that’s how they learn cause/effect 🫶❤️

    Callan reminds me of when my 12 year old was his age. She pulled everything out of the bottom cabinets flinging as fast as she could go. She would crawl into one of the cabinets and was singing , reading books, talking on her phone (AKA a pair of socks) or eating snacks with the door shut. Cleaned up every night at bed and rinse and repeat the next day. Those days go SO fast. Thank you for sharing your little family with us and bringing back such sweet memories.
