One of my favorite things is watching you do tasks in normal speed....not speeded up two or four times. It’s not only soothing with the music in the background but it’s inspiring me to take my time with homemaking and even turn it into a spiritual practice, doing whatever the task into a gift to the Lord. You are bringing peace to what can be a stressed season. Thank you for beautiful filming and editing...and I love your voice. 💕
🌻I agree, I take time when cleaning and it is calming. Eloquence in movements and not rushing makes a difference. I learned to slow down and there's less clumsiness. The water speed, your wiping speed and your overall speed going to and fro changes the atmosphere. It's those little things, thanks 👒
Oh, Nikki, if I could rate this video - I'd give it an A++! It was beautiful, informative, poignant and elegant. The moments spent with your baby girl in your kitchen while you cooked was especially sweet.
This was so great, especially the last few minutes! I use my planner and a few notebooks to match each year! I find that whatever I write down, gets done! I love being a wife and mom! My son is 19, and you are so right about the deeper truths as we intentionally spend quality time with them. He I a wonderful young man and a strong Believer. We get 1000 weeks to greatly impact our kids lives, before they head off to college. Not a LOT of time when you consider that by age one, we have used up 52 of our 1000 weeks! Thank you for using your channel to share the love of family and home! Your daughter is precious! 🙏🏽💞💗💕
Another lovely, creatively done video. I love my paper planners, they are a tool to help me handle my anxiousness. The rain, the teapot, the dog with the white face, the bubble gum, the girl that is almost too big to be carried...Nikki, you feed my soul. Thank you.
Thank you Carolyn! I love that you pick up on all those things, ESPECIALLY the bubble gum and yes, she's still asking to be picked up from time to time and how can I say no to my baby when I often don't get the loves I once did. I'm so happy to hear these feed your soul and appreciate you saying so!
Here 3 years later to have tea time with you, lol. In between tasks, decided to stop and prepare some tea anddrink it hearing you. I love this kind of videos, it feels like I'm having afternoon tea with a friend.
Oh nikki, this ending made me tear up! My Boy is 1,5 years old and i‘m already so sad that he‘ll be grown up faster than i imagine. Lovely Video! Thank you
Absolutely true❤️ We as parents are the best example for our children. I often think that Our family, our husband, children and home are our Mission Field and our Ministry. Showing the Love of God through our actions. We may not be able to control what’s beyond our home, but we can control how we run our home and the love we show and how we make our children feel❤️ You’re an amazing mommy and your children are bless to have you❤️ Thank you for sharing!!
Although I am single, without children, I spend time cleaning and showing love to my home because I and my two fur babies, reap so many rewards. It's an important psychological part of caring for myself. I love the china!! Much love and many blessings xxx
Nikki, this video was so precious at the end. My baby girl turns 14 today and I have so much I still want to share with her! Thanks for the Inspiration!
Hi Nikko, I love your video that I can see a woman do the chores so elegant. You swipe the floor by dancing step which makes me feel good. So inspiring video! Beautiful and wonderful!
I was just watching your video while meal planning and painting my nails and then heard my name! How fun! I do love the community of women here. I am a planner and love using planners. They help me be so much more productive. The past few years I have used a Rifle planner and they are pretty and functional. I recently got a new planner though from Erin Condren and I do love it. It has more room to incorporate my whole life into it such as my regular scheduling and also my exercise schedule and eating plan, finances and budgeting, my gratitude journal and meal planning. I love that I can combine all those things into one beautiful place. I customized it just to how I like.
Thank you for your comment! That's great you found a planner with everything you are looking for! Customizing it makes it feel so special and one-of-a-kind!
I use Bullet Journal... I fits me better! I can change it as I go and it relax me to create all my pages and decorations! P.S. was nursing my baby and she falled a sleep while you were speaking! Yai! She's a dream fighter!! Thank you!
On planners: I like the Russell and Hazel planner from The Container Store because you can put whichever sections you want in it. I have monthly sections and then I have grid paper in the back which is my favorite combination.
I love the Tools for Wisdom planner. There is a section for goal planning each month. The vertical layout for each day helps me to organize my thoughts and also to remember what I plan.
I love your videos you are such an inspiration ,I love cleaning too and you make it look so graceful .I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and happy new year .Love from Australia
Lovely video, Nikki! Especially loved the cuddle at the end with Aria!😍💕Your Ross teapot is so feminine and dainty. I've been using and loving the classic Moleskin journal. Once I started bullet journaling, I fell in love and there was no turning back for me. 😂
New subscriber here. I was in Jennifer’s recent video along with you and other beautiful ladies, and I’m so glad I found you! This video was beautiful, relaxing, and informative. Great job ❤️
Just today I ordered an Inkwell Press disc bound planner for 2020. It is a weekly spread, but also has undated daily pages for those busy days I want to time block.
How do you take care of your pleated skirt? Do you wash it in the washing machine or by hands? Do you iron it? I love it, and had before but couldn't iron pleats.
I wash my skirts on delicate and hang dry them. The pleated ones are polyester and seem to have a permanent crease so there is no ironing necessary, it's perfect to me.
I need to get an apron im always worried about ruining my clothes whenever im doing the dishes or cooking. New Subbie here. would love if we could support each other.
I handed my children a chocolate cake and mint icing. It was for birthdays, homemade and filled with love. There must be days when you are sad, or the weather has been awful. I am in a SAD season. How do you get out of this horrible funky feeling? Enjoyed this, hugs from a dark Canada.
That's so thoughtful of you to do for them! There are times I am sad and days when I feel everything is going wrong and the world is against me, times when I feel less than motivated or lack creativity. I have learned in these moments I don't express my true feelings well through words but through the use of visuals and music. If you listen and look carefully, my videos, the parts that are beyond the words, tell my story and lay my truth bare. I find if I create, no matter how good or bad I believe it to be, this helps me work through my feelings while also having a focus of helping others and most importantly, casting my cares on the Lord. I hope this helps.
@@TheLadyoftheHouse I am a very visual person, so I should use that time to create.Thank you. Sometimes it takes someone on the outside to help with advice. Again thank you...hugs
Morning Nikki. Like you, I have a newer kitchen suite that includes induction cooktop. As a result was the purchase of proper cookware. What I haven’t been able to find due to very limited to chain store shopping here, is a tea kettle that works on the induction. May I ask where you got yours? I really like the style. Also, have you tried Good Earth Tea, original blend with or without caffeine? My favorite and found only online. Enjoy your day!🌹
How nice! I found my tea kettle at Ross and they still have lovely styles similar to mine. The lines are so beautiful to me. I was so surprised to see it worked with induction but very happy about that because our previous pots didn't. I haven't tried that kind, thank you for letting me know!
Inspired by Nikki , morning, and thank you for your tea kettle information. This will sound silly but when in doubt about about induction cookware... if a kitchen magnet doesn’t stay on... If interested, here’s a link to the tea website: www.goodearth.com/ 😊
Thank you for sharing your insights. Your videos are wholesome and so beautiful. I like both your tea pot set & Apron that you got at Ross. Can you share what brand the apron is? Maybe I can find one online... Thank you for sharing!💖
This why I subscribed to you...your videos are just so relaxing, so elegant...Can I have the link of the music in the beginning of your video please? Thank you to give us such motivation and kindness💝
LivingOnADime.com has a planner called the "Get It Together, People!" planner. I like that it has lists that can be checked off for all areas of Home/Life Management: Appointments, Cleaning, both monthly and daily; Menu planning, tear-out shopping lists, Financial section for paying off debt pay-off, and Budgeting. It has a pocket on the inside front cover for receipts or notes, whatever; It has positive sayings on each page to help with positivity, which I like too. There's a video on You-Tube where she shows all the pages and how to use each page.
The planners I am using are the Recollections Faith -Find the beauty in all things and The Life Agenda Let's make today beautiful for 2020. I love all the planners you have.
Yes Amanda, as Laura said I studied for many years, most of my childhood and majored in it at college. Later I taught. I loved it! Thank you for your kindness🌹

When I watch you in the morning, I am less of a slob during the day LOL
That is so nice to hear, I'm happy these videos help!
ME, too!!!! 😂
You are a wonderful, elegant homemaker! And a lovely mom to your children. They are blessed to have you.
Thank you Karen!

It was so nice to hear you break this down, it really puts things into perspective! Thank you for your kind words Almetra and sharing about your son.
Nothing about me is "elegant" when I clean lol, but I love how patient you are when cleaning and graceful too:)
Thank you for saying that! It's something I continually work on.
This brought back a lot of good memories of when my girls would help with dinner.. So precious.
Thank you Kay!
Oh gosh, that ending moment with your daughter has me tearing up! So sweet.
so pleasant to glance upon during my sewing for grand daughters and listen to beautiful music
I'm so happy to hear that, thank you!
I enjoyed this, Nikki. The music was very soothing.❤
I'm so happy you enjoyed this!
I bought the Inkwell Press 360 classic. It works well for me. Such a sweet video. You share beautiful stories.
Thank you for sharing Denise and for your kind words!

Very well said, thank you for your lovely thoughts! I truly appreciate your kind words, they meant a lot to me!
The ending where you were embracing your daughter with warm tender nurturing love made me tear up. You’re such a great mother and homemaker.
Thank you for saying that. Our children add so much to our lives, especially if we stop and take in those moments with them.
So aesthetic. You have a lovely book collection.
Thank you kindly!
I always enjoy your videos. They capture motherhood in ways that makes you see how much each of us do in our homes.
I'm happy you feel my videos do that, what a compliment!
Although I am single, without children, I spend time cleaning and showing love to my home because I and my two fur babies, reap so many rewards. It's an important psychological part of caring for myself. I love the china!! Much love and many blessings xxx
That is time to truly enjoy even just for yourself and your animals. I agree with your thoughts, well said!
I wear an apron for everything! Even if I’m wearing something older. It kind of helps me be more efficient because I’m not worried about my clothing.
I know exactly what you’re talking about Leslie, that’s a great feeling!
Ah those hugs... so precious ❤❤❤
What an enjoyable video, Nikki! The end with you and Aria was so beautiful. I loved it xx
Thank you Jennifer! Seeing the ending helped me see her and what was going on in a different way.
Nikki, this video was so precious at the end. My baby girl turns 14 today and I have so much I still want to share with her! Thanks for the Inspiration!
Thank you Jennifer! Happy Birthday to your daughter!
My daughter and I enjoyed this video, Nikki. The ending was especially beautiful. Thank you as always for inspiring us.
Thank you Laura, I love knowing you watch together!
The ending of this video....priceless!
Thank you!
The best part was that hug with your daughter! 😘
I agree, those are my favorite!
Hi Nikko, I love your video that I can see a woman do the chores so elegant. You swipe the floor by dancing step which makes me feel good. So inspiring video! Beautiful and wonderful!

Ballet positions while you clean! Lovely , graceful and so inspiring!
Thank you!
The music is so beautiful, that made my day 😊

I've heard many love their Bullet Journal for relaxation purposes, almost like therapy. I'm happy to put baby to sleep ;)
This video was perfect💕 I plan to share this with my family...I am crying at the end. What an insightful statement this makes! Thank you, Nikki!🙏
I was crying too. Beautiful video.
Thank you Renee! I really appreciate you sharing this with others! My friend did a wonderful job arranging these closing words.

I forgot to list the ring binder planner I will be carrying in my purse. I need help! At least our habit is a lot of fun!
Nikki, just curious if you did ballet when you were younger? You move so gracefully while you clean😍☺️
Yes, she did, and she taught ballet as an adult. Isn't she just so graceful?
Laura B What a wonderful experience that must’ve been! I’ve loved ballet since I was little!!😍
Yes Amanda, as Laura said I studied for many years, most of my childhood and majored in it at college. Later I taught. I loved it! Thank you for your kindness🌹
Can't keep the beauty of it all to myself...
Thank you Barbara!
