I’m with the gal who said she has no questions but just loves to hear your heart…. And a little controversy 😜

@GraceandGrit Год назад

You’ve come to the right place 🙌🏻

@herhomemakingheart Год назад

I really do want to go back to your older homeschool videos and see how your days were! I always love your q & a videos!

@robdebl2414 Год назад

Love the video! Thanks!:)

@herhomemakingheart Год назад

Thank you for saying that about Christian colleges! Yes!!!

@Kay-rf3fp 11 месяцев назад

The job thing is so true. We are blessed that my husband has his own business that our kids can actually work for him so it doesnt conflict with any plans.

@cassandracriswell4539 Год назад

Completely agree about the school funding. It will come with strings and we want autonomy! Agreed with all your various answers and always enjoy hearing you answer them. You speak so confidently with grace as well!

@Rofamily6 Год назад

Wonderful Q&A. One thing I wish my parents did differently, growing up in a strong Christian home, was the dating scene. They allowed it and even encouraged it. I really believe now, as a wife and a mom of nine, that saving the teen years for focus on practical life skills and growing emotionally, not dating, growing in the Lord, preparing your heart and life to "date", which in my opinion should be only towards marriage. It is so vital and one way that we can protect our kids. The Bible speaks of love not being "aroused or awakened, until it so desires". As believers we speak of saving intimacy with our spouse, however the intamacy of hearts is also so important, not to be given away as teens, who cannot marry, so dating would be just for "fun". Which most of the time is not.

@steffa648 Год назад

This is such a great response!! I totally agree with you on this one! The point of dating is marriage. When they are teens just be friends and do things in groups.

@ct620 Год назад

The comment “eternity is longer than now”. Wow loved it

@bshows14 Год назад

Thank you for the last question. I was saved when I was 16, but I didn't understand what walking with God meant and the Christian life until after my mom passed away in 2021. I have recommitted my life at 40 years old. My children are older..16 and 13. I have apologized to them for not having an active church life for most of their growing up. God was always a part of our household and praying and understanding His blessings, but I didn't emphasize the importance of reading the scriptures and understand the word until recently myself. I have prayed that God would forgive me of that and that there is still time for both of my kids to see the change in me while they are living at home.

@nettynette8697 Год назад

Agree 100% with your views on school choice laws. Free money from the govnt isn't free. There are always strings attached. I also like to be left alone. 😉

@rebeccainspiringhope4357 Год назад

Loved your advice to the new Christian mom! What a measured, loving response! ❤

@natalya9123 Год назад

Love your conviction!! Thanks for continuing to be here for us moms coming behind you ♥️

@lorimiller7261 Год назад

Great chat ! My husband stood firm too with his company and they never followed through with the mandatory vax ! Praise God ❤

@asawade10 Год назад

Mom of 8 here and have been homeschooling since 2005. Love and appreciate how you boldly honor the Lord and point others to Christ. So thankful for the example you've been through the platform He's given you. Thank you. Praying for you and appreciate all you boldly share about.

@Rofamily6 Год назад

I also agree with you on preparing our children for whatever road the Lord leads them on. However, I think it is a lost Biblical art in teaching our girls to be keepers of their homes. Before God it's the highest, most beautiful calling, before man, the lowest. Even if our girls do not marry, they are equipped, and love to make their home or the space, werever they may be in the world, beautiful and serving others proiority.

@threearrows6906 Год назад

YES on your school choice answer!!

@ktidesmith Год назад

Whew! I'm so glad someone asked that last question. My stepdaughter who is a teenager moved in with us full time last year, and I'm SO happy about it, because it's a MUCH better environment. But her adjusting to the way my husband and I live and our rules has been difficult! Thanks for the advice and encouragement!

@laurenreichow5427 Год назад

Where is the “love” button instead of “like”???!!! Girl! You speak soooo much truth! I loved every single thing you said here!! You are SO my people!! Praying for you always! Thank you as usual for sharing your heart!

@GraceandGrit Год назад

Thanks for loving on me!

@kristenransom9698 Год назад

Agree with you 100% on school & Tex laws! I’d rather to be left alone.

@steffa648 Год назад

Hello I am the one that asked the question about aiming your daughters either to be career women or homemakers. Of course there’s only so much I could type in the Instagram chat box. I guess I should follow it up with are you at least guiding your daughters and questioning them on things to consider in choosing a career path? Do they want to get married? Do they want children? Do they have a desire to be home once they have children? These are all conversations I am sure you will want to have with your daughters before they leave the home. Also what is your take on Titus 2:3-5? I believe this passage to be literal. Not saying a woman can’t make money from home or something, but her priority is the home, and most women desire marriage and children. We need more godly, older women teaching us younger women to love our husbands and love our children and being a worker at home. I have witnessed personally the detriment of mothers leaving their homes in pursuit of career and it is not pretty! Both the marriage and the children’s souls suffer!

@howowen4519 Год назад

For future Q&A please. For those of us who have neurodivergent learners, how is it suggested to use the good and the beautiful language arts? You have strong convictions of learning, but for these students those just don’t work and G&B doesn’t have anything, that I’ve found, on their website to assist in this.

@oursweetiebirdshome Год назад

Yes! School choice laws are so important! ❤👏

@amydavis8319 Год назад

As a mom of 3 girls I really appreciated what you had to say about not raising girls to fill a particular role as adults. We also believe in raising our girls to be able to make responsible and godly choices on their own as adults and that God's sovereignty will be accomplished in their lives. 💓

@sarahc4361 Год назад

Thank you Ashlee for all of your wisdom and encouragement ❤

@myshaharmon6808 Год назад

I 100% agree with you Ashlee on the mom/teacher relationship. The expectation is love and respect no matter what we are doing. That is actually something that I drilled into them since they were small children. No matter who you come in contact with in life you should treat all people with love and kindness, and as they got older I added respect into that mantra. It is about their personal character and not about the role of the person they are in contact with at that moment.

@amberleggio335 Год назад

You do not need to pick and look at colleges so early!!!!!!! Good choice mama. We looked the summer before Senior year. But also know their are plenty of online options too, trades and other routes for each child to take.

@coffeeandcrayons Год назад

Love the answer about protecting your relationship. I feel absolutely the same way. Homeschooling makes our relationship so much stronger.

@mariyabaranova3240 Год назад

Thank you for your thoughts and example ❤

@valeriesearles3000 Год назад

@sarasali3077 Год назад

I just love your honesty!!

@worldofweeze Год назад

Thanks for sharing! I’ve told many people that the hardest part of staying home and homeschooling at the same time, is not being able to have complete thoughts without interruption. Continually praying for patience❤️

@brittanyengebretson7828 Год назад

Wow, what a video ❤. My girls are in middle school and your videos continue to remind me to cherish every stage and not look too far ahead. I needed your wisdom this morning, thanks so much for sharing

@priscillaramos3033 Год назад

So if you were leaving town for the weekend, when would you start to prepare??

Amen on school choice laws!

@cyndicopeland4113 Год назад

This was an awesome Q&A! There were quite a few different topics that I was curious to hear your answer about so I’m glad you made this! I recently found your channel and have been bingeing your content while doing chores because my husband and I feel strongly that homeschooling is the path God wants us to take. Our daughter is only about to turn two but getting the information before I start makes me feel much more prepared. Thank you for being willing to share your and your family’s life on the Internet for people like me to not feel alone❤🙏

@courtneylynn2544 Год назад

Love that you and your husband were ready to sacrifice so much (your husband's career, retirement package) to stand by your convictions. So needed, especially now!

@Soy_Jessica_ Год назад

@evelynthomley9424 Год назад

Spot on & well said! ❤

@KarenTaggart Год назад

Thanks so much for sharing Ashlee! I loved your answer to that last question. I was raised Catholic, but my whole adulthood until more recently was more…agnostic I guess you would say. For the past few years I’ve been on a journey to discover and learn everything I can about Christianity and faith and share that with my 12 y/o daughter. I’m struggling to figure out the best way to do that. We read books together and have done some Bible studies. But I’m not sure it’s “hitting home” yet. I’m open and honest with her that I’m learning right along with her. Any suggestions are very welcome! ❤️

@GraceandGrit Год назад

Just keep seeking, and reading and sharing! I have some books you may enjoy linked on my amazon page!

@meghannlopez3687 Год назад

Love the chat. I’m so glad your hubby was not forced. We were and had to sell our beautiful home and leave everything we knew to move across the country. God totally provided but it was very stressful and beautiful at the same time. Lots of trusting in The Lord. Also help from the state is never free. We lived in California and with all the charter schools they have slowly increased there reach into what was required. We also did it without financial help. It can be done. Thanks for sharing your perspective and heart!

@NikkiSchumacherOfficial Год назад

The same day our 3 month old died in the hospital, my husbands company fired him for not getting the you know what. They offered him his job back but we were done with them. Right after the funeral we left our community, sold our house and started traveling across the USA as he switched careers (something that travels). He makes more money than ever and we are about to buy a house for cash with the profit from the sale of our home. God has been faithful to sustain us. I do wish I hadn’t needed to leave every friend irl that I know while grieving and basically grieve all alone but God’s grace has been sufficient. He wanted me to rely solely on Him. It’s crazy how many had the same situation and ended up moving or nearly moving!

@kyleighhiles9733 Год назад

I’m glad you mentioned the heart palpitations and not taking medication for it. I recently started dealing with them after the Ohio train derailment. I’m assuming a combination of the chemical exposure and anxiety surrounding that whole situation. I had an ekg which showed an irregular heartbeat and then had to wear a monitor for 48 hours. It showed normal sinus rhythm but tachycardia. Now I have a follow up appt next week and they want to talk about starting meds. I do not want to do meds…I’m going to tell them I am starting a magnesium supplement and limiting caffeine and I want to see if it improves now that we are away from Toxic Town. Please pray for me to be bold at my appt and not let them push me around. I obviously want to do what is best, but don’t want to deal with side effects of meds if I can manage without it.

@GraceandGrit Год назад

@heatherbenza5185 Год назад

Ugh lots of covid homeschoolers are really pushy about wanting money for homeschooling. I feel like they need to public school at home if they want that. I don’t want to jump through anyone’s hoops or be a slave to their schedule. 😅 Not sure if you’ve said what your husband does. Too late for my husband and I, but I’d definitely like my kids to know what jobs come with early retirement.

@lillyloveshome9055 Год назад

Amen!

@knrock5163 Год назад

Please consider researching magnesium supplements for your heart palpitations. Mine started post C. And us women often get told anxiety is the root cause of many conditions and we know deep down it's not. It's likely physiological. It's tricky because a symptom of Magnesium deficiency can be anxiety symptoms. Mine completely resolved with the RIGHT magnesium supplement ( there are multiple types). I do not go out of my way to make suggestions on you tube, but I've been watching you for years and feel like I would not be a good "friend" if I didn't say something... Just in case it was helpful ❤

@GraceandGrit Год назад

Yes I did look into that. Thankyou for sharing for others too

@bshows14 Год назад

I was having palpitations as well. The docs couldn't figure it out. I did research and figured out that it was related to anemia. Since getting that under control, they have gone away.

@gracegreenwell2657 Год назад

agree w/ you on the school choice question! AMEN! So have you visited any colleges yet? I would love to visit Italy & Ireland. Coffee shop and a good new book sounds good to me.

@AD-lc8pw Год назад

You are such an incredible and special woman Ashley may God bless you and your family. I was praying fo you throughout this entire video because such wisdom can only be a blessing from God. You truly have a personal relationship with him. May He always watch over you guys. You're such a wonder I find myself wondering about your store or rather childhood every time you speak. Bless you! Love from a homeschool mom in South Africa.

@Megan-qe6vk Год назад

We've agreed we won't accept any kind of funding toward homeschooling if that comes up. Accepting money means allowing this government to have a say over my children's education.

@MusingsofFamily Год назад

We held out until the very end regarding that "thing" too. I'm a nurse and my husband is in the military and a firefighter. It is truly by the grace of God that we lost NO jobs during that time. Looking back, it's nothing short of a miracle. I'm so glad we held out, but whew that was awful! 😅

@kindredkori2916 Год назад

Your shirt is giving me Smee vibes 😆 #Disneylife The color is great on you though! Praise God for allowing your husband to stand his ground and able to finish until retirement 🙌 I have some friends in the military whose husbands were forced out and they were so close to retirement.

@cristinap6394 Год назад

We have a special needs scholarship for our girls and there’s absolutely no strings. Same rules for homeschooling and it helps pay for sensory items and therapies. We’re here in Florida.

@melissacapps8453 Год назад

I AM SO GLAD YOU SAID THAT ABOUT YOUR TEEN’s JOB!! 😂 I am the same way. Yes I would love my 2 oldest to get a job but it ties us down. My family doesn’t get that.

@christybuchanan53 Год назад

I loved your response to the last question! Such truth! 👏🏻 Will you be utilizing any BJU Press materials in your homeschool next school year?

@GraceandGrit Год назад

Yes we will be!

@Toshacarter2011 Год назад

I appreciate your honesty and sharing your heart with us!!!! I messaged you in the past about the gaps you found in Teaching Textbook and we just finished up Teaching Textbooks and we’re gonna try Shormann. Just wondering have you ever tried the Shormann Science?

@stephanievoss5353 Год назад

Great Video! Curious how you use Notgrass history along with TG&TB language arts? Do your kids do the English credit portion of Notgrass too? Thank you for sharing your experiences and wisdom through your homeschool journey. You are such a blessing!!

I’m too concise. I once has a college professor tell me I was “terse”….. but I was just trying to stick to the facts because I was afraid if I ramble I’d sound like a clueless idiot! Haha

@priscillaramos3033 Год назад

You said you do not waste time.. I completely agree that you should not.. there's so much to get done..that's why i love your Get it done with me videos:) but I'm curious.. what do you think is a waste of time ?? I'm always looking for ways to be efficient.. and I'm always worried that I may be wasting time by taking too long at something.. you know?? For example, I need to make meals but could i be taking too long to make meals ??.. therefore, wasting time?

@homeschool.pray.repeat Год назад

Amen on the Christian college thoughts. They do exist, but just because they say “Christian” means nothing anymore.

@Season4Reason1 Год назад

Absolutely agree with you on the school choice laws. Taking government money means we have to follow government rules. The whole point of homeschooling is teaching our kids what we believe is correct. I fear government control and their dictating that we must teach LGBT or BLM or anything anti Christian. And so many are trying to push this in my state under the false pretense of school choice and homeschool families need tax breaks or funding too. Don’t fall for it!!

@GrowingPerfectly Год назад

I am not a quick answer person either if anything probably more lengthy lol 😂 I agree on tax break or help because it’s not what it seems at all. Got to love Hobby Lobby! Sadly, That is very true about “Christian” Schools 😢 breaks my heart
