Emily, you're an awesome Mum! I promise you're not a failure as a parent. I wish I'd had a Mum like you when I was small. Unfortunately, I grew up in a very dysfunctional family. I'm so glad Harrison, Wyn, Sawyer, Griffin, Posey & Lindy have you as their Mum.
Super day! Are their schools as great as their doctors up there? Any chance of moving up there if so? Love to see the progress of each child. Speech therapy and whatever is needed for each child. Super parents!
After what a lot of others said, I was expecting a problem with the video. I'm pleased that it worked fine for me. p.s. I'd also like to take this time to say that I adore ALL of your children! But.....Griffin had my heart right from the first time I subscribed to your channel. 💓

We also had the "feeling like a failure as parent" feeling today. We all have that feeling from time to time. But you guys are ROCKING IT. One thing I've learned is to just keep loving my kids. No matter how many mistakes I make (and I make a LOT), as long as they know I love them, "every little thing is gonna be alright." Take care.
WHAT eeg STAND FOR WHAT time his DOCTOR appointment HE Need his walker how many times WHAT Times DO YOU have TO come back TO THE hospital more test THIS HE HAVE A seziure DAY NEED to keep him over 🌙 IN THE hospital
Thank you for sharing your life with us. I’m getting ready to adopt two little ones from foster care. They both have special needs but the one year old boy’s needs are more severe. He may need a walker or a wheelchair, but at the moment he rolls across the floor to get what he wants. His condition can come with seizures, but I’m keeping my fingers crossed he doesn’t get them. Seeing you with Griffin highlights the struggles and joys of a special needs toddler and gives me an insight into what life may be like. You don’t make it seem easy, but you take some of the mystery and unknown out of the picture. You are one of the reasons I’m adopting this little boy. He deserves to be loved by a family as much as Griffin, no matter his disabilities. Thank you for the inspiration.
You guys do such a good job with Griffin. It is great that you’re so dedicated to meeting all his needs, and you handle all those doctor’s appointments so well. He really is doing well with using silverware, too. That is so great to see.
don't feel as if you have failed because the kids are cranky etc. I am 1 of 8 children (we are all grown up now) and there we days we all were at our worst and didn't get along with anyone and nothing was right with the world day. My mom who has been gone for 5 yrs now, would tell us figure it out or you all are going to bed, She would split us up into other rooms to hopefully chill us out.. You have to remember sometimes us kids need some alone time also. Hang in there your are doing fine.
sharon s I am so glad u told her this. This gives a lot of insight of what goes on with multiple kids when they are constantly together!!!! I hope she reads this!!!!
Family you r doing such a great job with your precious family. Can I ask why Griffin still has his pacifier. Does that make him more restful and comfy. Hope that wasn't a rude question blessings to each of you from New Zealand
I bet the kids were really tired (you did say they played o outside all day) and that is why they were fighting you at bed time. It shows that had a great busy day xx
My son Sullivan is 1 year seizure free on the 16th of this month and they started when he was 3 months old and after 2 failed meds keppra and phenomenal he was put on topamax and it’s worked for him twice daily now he’s been down to 1 time daily and it scared me he will seize again! His hopefully last eeg is Friday!
Omg he is doing so great !! I told you with your love and support he will continue to surprise you! I am so happy to see him walking with the walker and eating and behaving fantastic in a restaurant. . He is amazing !!
You and Will are so strong! Thank you for brightening every day you upload! I’ve been watching forever I’m not sure if you guys already tried this but would cbd be able to help his seizures?
Griffin has such a wonderful disposition you are doing such a good job don't ever second-guess yourself you are a good parent and you're handling this very well I think I know you're overwhelmed at times you and your family are in my prayers every day thanks for sharing your journey
Laura Podergois Yes!!!! THESE DR.'S were very crucial for Griffin & parents today!! I think they really helped take a load of relief off Emily & Will today. They really needed that to give them a boost!! I really wish they could always have these DR.'s all the time. Think they would feel so much better about Griffin's care!! Griffin did phenomenal today!!!!! GO GRIFFIN!!!!!!!!!
I love you guys praying for Griffin and you too Emily love watching you guys I have Epilepsy but haven't had a seizure in 20 years and I have been on Depakote and Lamictal since I was a little girl to control my Epilepsy I am 27 now and got my 1st job at Mc Alisters Deli
Video worked fine for me. Emily you are not a failure. You and Will do just fine parenting 6 young children. My hats off to you both. You both have a lot to handle and you are doing it. A parent who fails is a parent who quits. You guys give your all and then some to your littles. Much love and prayers for all of you.
You are an awesome mom! Try not to be so hard on yourself. Also, try a reward chart for bedtime (at least for older 2.) Also try staggering bed time? Put 2 younger down first, then twins, let 2 older have a little “alone” time. I know you all are looking to move. And a bigger house will help with bedtime. Also want to mention that since you are looking in the south, it is blazing hot here from April to about Nov. I don’t like the heat so it’s hard. But I hear you mention how hot it is right now and just want you to realize that where you are the snow may be a “pain” but where we are, the blazing hot summers (humidity, heat index, bad air, bugs) are a pain. This is in GA/SC.
I just wanted to add if I may....We live in Pennsylvania , the snow can be a real pain! The temperatures can get really cold! We don't live very far from where Emilee & Will live so I DO UNDERSTAND their issues with the winters in this "neck of the woods". 😉 My daughter has lived in North Carolina for about 7 years and absolutely hates the summer for the high heat,storms, tornados AND the winters . They do get some snow & ice storms in the winter. She says because NC has to borrow snow removal equipment from Virginia it can also be quite rough in the winter. One other thing I've been hearing is the cases of The Virus #19 is a lot worse in the southern states. I just thought this is worthy information as you decide your move. May God Bless you & keep you safe! 🙏🏻 💕
