Welcome to The Frey Life daily vlogs! We are Peter & Mary, a married couple in our early 30's, showing the ups and downs of everyday life with #CysticFibrosis, a genetic lung disease that Mary was born with. In August 2019, Mary started a new CF medication that changed the trajectory of our future, and life has changed dramatically - including our son, Elijah, joining our family in December 2021. We also have an adorable standard poodle, Oliver, and a hairless sphynx cat, Harry. It's our hope that these videos can be an encouragement to to celebrate the little things in life and find joy amidst a world full of hard realities!

Mary I love watching you be a mother. I was just sharing with my youngest(21) the Frey life story of adoption and fostering. I believe the Lord has been directing us to look into fostering for short term emergency needs. I’m a nurse and my husband is a paramedic so infants and young children with health issues is where I feel we could help. We’ve raised 3 kids. Anyway we are praying and seeking the Lords guidance. Thank you Frey Life family.

I’ll include you in all my prayers 🙏🕯💛

@carebear802 11 месяцев назад

Somebody once referred to children as tiny world changer. I still love that. You now have 2 and such a blessing. You are doing so great with everything

@cindyspear86 11 месяцев назад

Going from one baby to 2 is a major change! Plus, your husband went back to working outside your home. Hang in there! Good to see you!

@teijaflink2226 11 месяцев назад

Is Peter working as a pastor?

@ivark56ofPA 11 месяцев назад

Pastor and I think administrator!!

@SensationalFinds 11 месяцев назад

I've watched you for years and it's literally like watching someone's real-life dream come true and beyond. Life is hard but it's beautiful and to see you be able to be a mother and family is better than any book or movie. His little mischievous smile is a sign of true toddlerhood! Nothing but love to you and your family❤

@wheelerbeauty84 11 месяцев назад

Mary, you were made to be a Mother! I love watching you be a Mother!! It is so beautiful!! You are a rockstar!! ❤❤❤

@MonicaRoy6156 11 месяцев назад

Frey family, one of your fellow RU-vidrs just found out she is at the end of her life with cancer. She has 2 young children and a loving husband. I am asking everyone that I follow to see if you can do a group prayer for her at your church. Her name is Jenny Apple. That’s also her RU-vid name. I love you all, and I’m happy to see how your journey has evolved into better health, and a growing family.

@speakthetruthever 11 месяцев назад

Yes watched her channel recently... so sad to know about how her daughter feels.. prayers for Jenny

@MarigoldsintheGarden 8 месяцев назад

Yes, I have been following Jenny from when she vloged about being a mother. 😢I still can’t believe that this is happening to her. It breaks my heart to see what she and her beautiful family are going through.

@melanie98d 11 месяцев назад

Eli drumming for his rock star Momma! You're doing great! The little bits you have been sharing are more than enough. Have a great weekend and pray Peter's sermon blesses everyone who hears it this Sunday.

@joannabrown2829 11 месяцев назад

So awesome watching you parent these lil boys. Elijah is getting so big

@boxerloverkz812 11 месяцев назад

You are doing so well managing the boys, the house, vlogging, etc. I am just in awe at how well Elijah can communicate with you via sign language. I am not sure if this would even be possible with a busy "toddler", but I would love to see all the words that he knows. When he was telling you about outside and swinging, I loved the excitement you had on your face.

@pianiannie4224 11 месяцев назад

Poor Ollie barking. He wanted out on the porch too! You are going to have to get Ollie a walking buddy until life catches up with you guys! You got a lot on your plate!

@denisejones1863 11 месяцев назад

Peter was such a good partner with taking morning with elijah and Ollie. Hopefully Mary can do the same. Maybe she can get a neighborhood youth to come and walk Ollie, or change the walk to evenings when Peter is home.

@Nelle4ever 11 месяцев назад

Ollie doesn't really bark, I think it was a neighbors dog we could hear in the clip outside.

@ivark56ofPA 11 месяцев назад

Oliver does sometimes barks just to get attention or to let outside When you guys are out on the porch and hes looking out from inside Locked up!!

@deniselovelace3075 11 месяцев назад

You are made to be a mom. You are so patient and deliberate with Elijah, on top of everything else. You are living one day at a time beautifully! It’s ok if you miss a vlog here or there. God bless you guys!❤

@brittySS 11 месяцев назад

So glad you're doing well Mary. I'm a viewer from Australia, I've watched your videos since 2015 and have admired how you've shown how you walk through tough parts of life with such grace. I was born with a physical disability called 'Spina Bifida' which affects my mobility & many other parts of my health. Its so encouraging to see someone else who also has health struggles remind us to always have faith in God for all the amazing things he does & will continue to do in our lives. God bless the Frey life

@nanettesohacki3597 11 месяцев назад

Don't worry about filming. Your health and your family +1 are what's important! ❤

@ivark56ofPA 11 месяцев назад

Your right family comes first before anything fliming episodes can come at later Time when unless there's something major going on in your lives then You want to share as random check in.. Futhmore its ok to take an extended vacation from vlogging everyone need a little private time once In awhile and you Won't get stressed out over it.if I had a choice I wouldn't Be doing it everyday only on occasion and once in awhile because its get Repetitive and would lead to bordom and lost views.. And decreased Subscribers..

@tdecker2937 11 месяцев назад

We can feel your gratitude for your life, just know that we share your gratitude! It is absolutely lovely to see your life now. ❤️

@jaimebh30 11 месяцев назад

I am good! Thankful for baby number 3 coming in October. I am sitting eating a dessert with a baby and toddler next to me sleeping, a dog at the bottom of the bed, and my husband sleeping on the far side of the bed. I keep thinking about how I will manage 3 with 2 under 2. I am very thankful for a happy home and full belly! I hope you and your family have a great week! You and Peter are doing great!

@rosebojorquez1237 11 месяцев назад

I remember years back having a toddler and a newborn 😊...its not easy, your day is full and very busy. Don't know how I did it, having a working husband and managing everything that goes into all the daily chores! You'll get through it! You're lucky to have people who want to lend a helping hand ❤❤

@mmmmlllljohn 11 месяцев назад

Elijah is beautiful and smart. So glad you have some help, Mary. Take care of your health and never put it on the back burner. May God bless your family! ❤️🇨🇦🙏

@donnanorris4733 11 месяцев назад

Eli says HI! Hi Elijah!

@maddieadams75 11 месяцев назад

I’m so happy for you guys. Elijah has shown you that you can conquer having a baby full time, and do it well. ❤❤

@kerrividler6571 11 месяцев назад

I’m watching from Queensland Australia in my hospital bed. Have had a week of treatment for Chronic pain and injections for Auto-Immune disease. I have seen you go through some really terrible and rough times and for you to get to here is an enormous achievement but it doesn’t mean that life isn’t as hard or, in some instances harder. You wouldn’t change it as you never thought you would have it but it does come at a cost. You are just amazing and a delight to watch transform through all of your struggles. Keep being you and keep being real xoxo

@ashleyjo53 11 месяцев назад

The cutest grin when you picked him up ❤️

@ekstitches 11 месяцев назад

I'm a little worried that I haven't seen a vlog in about a week. I am praying for you all that it's just because of normal life with two babies and a full time job that takes some getting used to. May God hold you in His hands and Grace x

@lenablanc7162 11 месяцев назад

You asked what we're doing. Don't want to let anyone down. But I'm just really sad. I follow two wonderful channels/families here on YT. And Sarah from one of the families (POG family) is in hospice and dying from cancer. And the other family (Jenny Apple) just got the news that her cancer progressed really bad and she might only have few months to live. And it's so heartbreaking. Everyone would be so appreciated who wants/could pray for them or give them love. Thank you. ❤

@JESUSisLORDBiblestudy-channel 11 месяцев назад

Just prayed for them... whether we live or die ..it is for God's glory..plus those who know and believe in Christ don't really die..they live even though they die - John 11. Cheer up sister

@speakthetruthever 11 месяцев назад

Yeah so sad about Jenny and her lil ones

@loreearter1263 11 месяцев назад

Oh, Elijah's cheeks!! I could just est them up!! So cute! You guys are such good parents!

@loreearter1263 11 месяцев назад

Eat them up!

@Nelle4ever 11 месяцев назад

I'm glad your getting help, Mary. I don't have kids but helped a friend with her kids. Two kids under two is a lot!

@smalltwngirl8643 11 месяцев назад

I adore your family!! Elijah brings so many smiles to my day! (In response to Elijah) ... please tell him... "HI!!!" FROM Andrea in Ohio!

@carolynlong9148 11 месяцев назад

I think you're doing a fantastic job taking care of two babies having chronic illness. I'm working full time at a day care this summer it has its challenges. I too suffer from chronic illness I suffer from Fibromyaliga and a blood disorder. Thanks for sharing God bless.

@alexisrivas307 11 месяцев назад

I just finished watching the blog. Today is Friday, July 21st at 3:48pm. I am sitting on a futon in our living room that acts as a couch, dining chairs, and a pull out bed. In front of me is our plastic folding dining table. and coffee table. I’m waiting for it to be 4:00pm so I can feed my retired guide dog and two cats. Then I have to take the dog out and scoop the litter box. Then finally I’ll load the dishwasher. By then my husband should almost be done washing a bunch of clothes and bedding at the laundry mat. That’s when the fun comes in… putting everything away. That’s the goal. Will it happen? Probably not. We can hope though. Have a good evening everyone.

@nim5687 11 месяцев назад

Your positivity is contagious! I have a nephew on trikafta and I love seeing how this drug has changed the lives of CF patients.

@dancing.with.adagio 11 месяцев назад

Wow, it's been awhile since I watched your vlogs. What a busy mama you are! But I gotta say, your face is glowing and you're looking so good! We had a mega hot day today, which definitely didn't help my POTS. I missed the program from our VBS tonight. This week has been super busy! Next item in the agenda is prepping to go north to visit my brother and his wife/family in the mission next week! ☺️

@carolynhall1302 11 месяцев назад

I am in awe of how well you are coping and that you are getting support from your community. I love seeing how happy and contented you are. I love how well Elijah can communicate with sign language, wish someone had taught me when my kids were babies!

@alexmaylef 11 месяцев назад

you’re handling it so gracefully!

@Judymontel 11 месяцев назад

Thank you for this video, Mary. I did indeed need the reminder to take the next step. And getting this glimpse into your life this way was also very encouraging and inspiring. Thank you also for being a role model for accepting help - so important to practice that!

@katherineadinolfe1617 11 месяцев назад

I'm so so happy for you and Peter, you wanted babies so badly, when I think about how you were when you got to North Carolina I was so afraid that we weren't going to have Mary but God has blessings for her and for Peter. I get it I totally get it, cuz with the pulmonary hypertension I wasn't getting diagnosed and it's been 10 years now since my surgery The God is giving me 13 more years thanks to technology like the medications that you and I both get they're very different but they are doing the job the kids are gorgeous even though we can't see the baby I know he's gorgeous and Elijah he's becoming such a little man congratulations again I can never tell you that enough, love Kathy from New York State. I just reposted the pictures of when my granddaughter and I were able to visit you all when Peter was preaching in Massachusetts that was a bucket list item to get to meet you all😂

@TheNelsonwx 11 месяцев назад

Hi Mary!! You are such a great mom. I know the two kiddos just love you and Peter so much. As for me just watching the summer go by, and full knowing that the Early start calendar in Milwaukee Public Schools is just around the corner. How sad, but we will be OK. I am happy you and Peter are doing well! ❤

@imogenoliver 11 месяцев назад

I’m so glad you guys have so much support and help, that’s really important, especially with foster care. This week I struggled to get my assignment draft in, it was really challenging just to stay interested in it and not just get completely overwhelmed ever even I just looked at it. Eventually though I fished it and the feedback was good and there isn’t that much I need to fix which is really nice. I decidedly learned the exact importance talking a bubble bath can have for my neurodivergent brain and the importance of resting and relaxing after finishing something really hard.
