How blessed are we that we have messes to clean and mouths to feed. You are doing a wonderful job as a mom and teaching your precious children as you go 😊❤
I admire and commend you for your candor and dedication to the cause. It is true that when you have less, “stuff”, you can get it together more quickly and you won’t have a lot of, “hoard”, for lack of a better word, in your way, but we unfortunately, don’t live in a minimalistic society and we find ourselves contributing to the congestion in our lives willingly until we realize that we’re in a traffic jam of our own doing. By this time, we have fallen in love with our possessions or better yet, deep like and have a love/hate relationship going on. The only way out is to either get rid of what you love, garage sale, pile it up or cast a blind eye to it. Over consumption is real just like overeating. We are living in a day and time where we eat with our eyes what our belly’s can’t accommodate. That’s why, “Hoarders” is so popular because this is the flip side of what’s to be if we keep consuming at the rate. I relate to you, I relate to them on some level because when you have to have everything, you wind up using nothing because it’s not accessible.
What you say is true. I used to keep a very clean house but at the end of 2021 I got very ill almost didn't make it. My recovery was very long. I was very embarrassed that I really could not clean my home during this time. Finally I came to my senses and stopped being hard on myself because I knew I would do it when I could.
Don’t worry about anyone else! You are living your life they are living theirs! Your requirements and demands are different and everybody handles life differently, so there’s no comparison sis! You continue to do what you need to do for you and your family the best way you know how and God will take you the rest of the way!❤ You do a great job cleaning!💖 I’m sure your babies are happy, so FORGET everybody else!
You did a good job and I like the way you talk, inspirational and motivating. That is my issue as well, just to get started, I go in freezing mode. With the kids, animals, husband in the house, it gets very cluttered and dirty fast and it's so overwelming to start over every day, alot gets left undone.
Thank you so much for this comment ❤️ you described my feelings, these are the exact words" going in freezing mode"😅 that's so true. Thank you for Sharing this comment. It's appreciated.
I enjoyed what you said about a messy home doesn't make you a bad person! So many get caught up in shame and guilt and comparisons... It isn't true and doesn't work! I appreciate the fact that you are so candid about this as a lot of women (some men as well) measure their effectiveness in this manner and there seems to be no shortage of folks to judge. The reassurance from a personality such as yours, with openness and pictures, tells a story that will help the one who is troubled in this way. That leads to hope, encouragement and action in some fashion and at some speed-- it depends upon the individual and her situation. Thank you for sharing as I am sure it helps so many of whom you may never even be aware. Sisterhood with a capital S!💞
I feel so encouraged reading your comment 🥰 You are so special, I really love your spirit. Thank you so much for watching and commenting on my videos. Your comments are so inspiring. I appreciate your words. Sisterhood with a capital S.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
It feels right to me to be supportive of other women as I discern their struggles and believe I have something of value to share. Or I see one who is doing something wonderful and want to say I see it! I try to do both in acceptable ways with right intentions. You surely deserve the attention! Appreciate your thoughts. ☺@@Doingitallformymentalhealth
This video is just what I needed! Your tips really spoke to me: “You’re getting up to make yourself feel better, not to clean,” “Be gentle with yourself, everyone’s house gets messy,” and “Just pick 2 things from your list and do those, you don’t have to get everything done right now.” I could feel the stress easing as I sat through the video. Then, to see your handsome boys all pitching in to help you with the empty boxes and clutter on the desk, and one even came over to get the baby off the countertop without prompting from you. Such nice, good kids! I’m so impressed! Many thanks for another awesome video!
Thank you so much! You made my day ,it feels amazing to know that the video is helpful to you. That is the most important part. I appreciate your comment, I let the boys read the comment, and they were very excited 😊 Thank you so much for watching ❤️
God bless you never feel guilty nobody is perfect do you be yourself love your videos you motivation helps a lot thank you for sharing happy new year.🥂🍾💐
I am happy to see you are teaching your sons to clean! I did the same with my sons! Boys/men need to be helping in every way in the household. Great job mommy💖🥰 Also, is that song by your kids? Dream it plan it? Great song💙
That's right, for them to be good husband, we need to raise good boy. "I tell them that :"It's not mommy's home. It's our home. We need to take care of it." Yes, the song is by my kids🥰 thank you so much for your comment dear. I appreciate it.💗
It is so refreshing to see a video with a real family!! Your four boys are beautiful, active and perfect. Enjoy every minute with them. I so appreciate that you include them & teach them to help around the house. I did the same when mine were young. We all live in the home & should contribute. Also encouraging to see a family who cooks & eats at home. Family life is messy 😂 but it is the best of times. You’re doing an amazing job 👏👏👏
Thank you so much. I am glad to know that you enjoyed watching. It's very encouraging. And I totally agree with what you said it's very helpful..thank you for leaving your comment.
You have definitely motivated me to organize my closet it’s a mess 🤣🤣. I agree with you my house does get messy but it’s extra messy during the week🤭. It amazes me how 2 adults can turn a house upside down Monday- Friday 🙄. It’s nice to see the boys helping out 💪🏾🫶🏾. 💙💙💙💙💙 the video Thank you as always see you in the next one😘😘😘.
Yay!🥰 I am glad to know that I motivated you to organize your closet.. It's so easy for a place to get messy. Hours of work can get messy in a few minutes. By me every day, I have a different reason why it's messy, 🤣. But I am getting there, and I am trying my best without stressing myself too much. Thank you so much for watching my dearest ❤️ I always see you in the next 😘 😘😘🥰😘😘🥰
Houses that get so messy simply have too much stuff in them. When we simplify our possessions there is less to manage which makes it much quicker to reset & clean.
Luckily we are all different 😉 I would rather have a cosy home where my children feel love and are not limited because everything needs to be white and empty. 🎉 😇 minimalism isn't for everyone
@gbk1t I honestly think that some houses have too much stuff in them but it's not the case for every home, sometimes the house is messy because we are simply living there, we are cooking, eating, children are playing etc...and things are not put away and we have to deal with the mess after. Thank you for watching ❤️
I’m so glad I found your channel you are an amazing woman! I’m cheering you on from the cold and dreary UK and looking forward to your next video - very motivating and encouraging thank you 🇬🇧 love the music and love those helpful boys x
Thank you so much, dear🙏🏽I appreciateyourcomment it'sso encouraging. You are, without any doubt, an amazing woman as well, I can say the same thing about you. Thank you so much for watching. Much Love from me to you ❤️
You did a good job cleaning and organizing the kitchen and dining room with the your sons. I like how it turned out and you didn’t give up on cleaning those areas. Thanks for sharing.
😊thank you. I don't change what is not broken. My stainless steel wool always works for me. It helps me keep my pans and pots shiny. That's all I need😁 Thank you so much for watching ❤️ I appreciate your comment.
It’s just me and my husband living I love to clean and I’m always cleaning and sometimes my house gets so messy 😂 I’m like how did we get here once you lived in your house it gets messy sometimes. Love your videos
I have 5 kids also, decluttering and labeling where everything goes has been a game changer for me! My house looked like a bomb went off in every room before that lol
I am older and I have some health issues. What I do is clean a little and take a break . Then I clean a little more as the day goes on and I get finished eventually through the day.
Can i ask a sily question? And please ignore my ignorance as i dont have a dishwasher, but why do you wash your dishes prior to placing them in the dishwasher. This is not directed at you personally as i see this on most cleaning videos.
😅 personally I don't really use my dishwasher a lot , I rarely use it because the dishwasher can't scrub my pots and sometimes it doesn't take all the dirt off the plates, I still have to help the dishwasher 🤣🤣 so I just wash them by hands. And you're not ignorant it's ok to ask🥰 nobody knows everything. Thank you for watching ❤️
@@Doingitallformymentalhealth thank you! And by the way I just got up and said I'm doing something good for ,e (and took the damn garbage out 😂 the same garbage I asked my kids to take out on their way out the door smh 😂)
The one on top of the stove came with the house, I purchased the small one so my kids can have easy access to the microwave, now they are much taller they can reach but few years back it wasn't easy for them. I still have 2 little ones, a 6 years old and a 3 years old, that's why I still keep the smaller microwave. Thank you for watching. I appreciate your comment.
I love that! Teaching them young. When my six kids were little I put plates and bowls in a drawer so they could reach and help with the dishes, years later they’re still down in a drawer. 😁
Sis it’s always good to have the boys helping you around in the house, that way when they get older and have their own responsibilities they already know what to do in the near future.
Thank you 😊 I needed the reminder -- I have to share your message.
You're welcome. I appreciate your comment it's very motivating.
Thank you so much for watching, and sharing your support is very much appreciated 😊 ☺️

Why do you have two microwaves? Great job cleaning!
The one on top of the stove came with the house, I purchased the small one so my kids can have easy access to the microwave, now they are much taller they can reach but few years back it wasn't easy for them.
I still have 2 little ones, a 6 years old and a 3 years old, that's why I still keep the smaller microwave.
