Life as a Mom to 10 | Large Family Life 

I’m a homeschool mom, pregnant with #9 right now and really find your channel encouraging and very relatable. I hate how everyone thinks I’m super mom and have it all together just because my kids comb their hair and wear clean, matching clothes and we make it to church on time -ish. I feel like I’m floundering and failing most of the time but you are always encouraging me to lean more on the Lord and brush off the silly comments that others make not knowing how hard yet how blessed this life we have chosen is.

I love how when you have a large family, you get to be all in as a wife, mom, homemaker and your heart doesnt have to be divided thinking you should do more somewhere else. Most people can imagine you are busy and doing a lot. And yes as you said, its a lot but its rewarding and fulfilling too.

Thank you for your video. I agree that it is so healthy to have a big family. I am an only child and recently found out I'm struggling with CPTSD and all the things they suggest to change in your life to help you, God has provided in my life already through having a big family. Without knowing it, God provided me with six sweet kiddos to heal me from my own childhood trauma, and it is also such a protective factor in my life. I also appreciate your husband saying, if it was easy, everyone would do it... that's really affirming. Sometimes with so much judgement from others on our life choices, I almost feel like i can't complain because I did choose this. Anyways, thank you! You are a Titus 2 woman who i hope to be like someday! Thank you for your encouragement! On a practical note, how do you make time for yourself (showers and daily self care) throughout the day/week? I have all littles, and it's such a challenge.

Unfortunately I will never have a large family. I like to watch your channel and dream what it would be like 😊! Also, I glean some helpful tips for the small family I do have. Thank you Lord.

This is sweet. I would want a large family, but I am not sure if I could do it. I can barely homeschool with just 3 children, let alone manage the home. My youngest will be a year old soon, and she still doesn't let me do read-alouds or verbalize lessons to my other two. She is always crying when it is time for me to teach the other kids, and she just won't have it. We do what we can during her 20 minute naps, but it just isn’t enough time. It causes us to get really behind in the school year. I just thought things would have gotten easier being past the needy newborn phase by now, but they haven't. My baby is so needy and for some reason hates when I am reading or even talking sometimes. I just can't imagine how you could homeschool all your kids despite being in the baby stage for so long with all of your kids. I also find it relatable when you mentioned being up late washing dishes. It is 12:45am for me right now, and I finally finished washing the dishes. When the baby is asleep is the only time I can! 😅 I appreciate the honesty about how hard it is. I get so overwhelmed and really needed the encouragement.

Thanks for sharing, I was an only child and now I have 3 kids and long to have a big family so this was fun to listen too!

Thank you, it was interesting to hear you share a bit more about yourself and how it is to parent 10 children. You are an inspiration and I'm so glad I found your channel a few months ago.

Beautiful thoughts on the unexpected blessings!

I really enjoyed this video! We are still growing our family and starting to tip into the larger family dimanics with baby nr 5(first boy!!) due in October. I always say our lives are beautiful chaos and having lots of kids is like herding cats😂 absolutely love it!! Just wish first trimesters were easier😂

I loved this! I’m a mom of a growing large family and I have found a lot of what you shared to be true! I just finished a book called Hannah’s Children: Women Quietly Defying the Birth Dearth and it’s a wonderful book that I think you would really enjoy. It blessed my heart immensely.

I am a new subscriber and I enjoy your channel so much. Thank you for sharing your life with us..We are christians as well...God bless you and your beautiful family...Sherri-Payette Idaho

Thank you! I enjoyed the last point you made about the challenge being a blessing. That makes a lot of sense and I have experienced that in my own life.

I love watching your videos! Your family is so beautiful and I very much relate to the blessings that the challenges of parenthood bring. ❤

This was great. Thank you for giving us a look into what it’s like having a big family.

I loved this! Your family is such a blessing to those around you. You are making a difference!

You have such a beautiful family! God bless you

This is very helpful as someone who feels called to have a larger than most family (we currently have four, we would love many more). Curious if you remember where your tank top is from? The color is beautiful.
