The two of you are the best. I just love the way you talk about your life and family. You are honest sharing your thoughts and family and it is like being with family. I am 80 and I so appreciate a real family to enjoy. Thank you and God be with you.
My daughter hit her head on her beds headboard when she was 3 years old.......it bled sooooooooo much. We went to emergency and due to the fact it was highschool football season we had to wait thru all their injuries,,,,,,,until I got upset! My husband passed out first in the ER room when she was being wrapped up for stitches and then I passed out when the stitches started.She came out 10 minutes later happy as can be because they gave her .....her first candy sucker! Thank GOD nothing like this ever happened again and now she is a doctor!
Tori you are so lucky to have Zach as a husband and father. He’s an awesome man. You two were meant to be together, soul mates! Tori you’re great and you look beautiful today and you seem rejuvenated. I see a change in you. The trip was good for you❤
I agree so much. Zach and Tori are such great parents. And a great couple. It’s funny they are so much younger than me but I am learning so much from them. I love watching raising heights. Hoping this continues for years, I want to follow their kids growing up. They are going to be such great kids
You guys are awesome. I don’t often comment but I am so impressed with the how lucky you are to have each other. Zach, you are one heck of a husband and father. Listening to your podcasts, you can tell how intelligent and well spoken you both are. I am so glad Jackson is okay. All the best to your family.🥰
My son had the same thing happen when he was 4. He climbed up to sit on the back of the couch when my back was turned, and he fell back and hit his head on the brick fireplace. Scary but did what needed to be done right away. I appreciate & identify with Zach's instinct to get done what needs to get done before exploring my emotions about it later. Solution-oriented, yeah! I think I get that primarily from my Mom (who panics about other things), and also my Dad. Good job, both of you!!
I luv watching you guys smile and laugh while chatting with each other. Tori you’re beautiful. I luv your hair and nails. I’m glad that you had fun at Disneyland. Haters are jealous of you. Ignore their hate. You’re a wonderful person and a wonderful parent. I’m sorry that Jackson hurt his head. I’m glad he only had to get three staples.
Ignore the hate quotes. Just because you had the means to go & allow you to enjoy yourself, they are just jealous, they are unhappy & don't want you to love life.God bless you.
Tori and Zach, I am always so entertained listening to you both. I laugh and listen to your stories every single week. What a great couple. And wonderful family..
My husband and I love going to disney by ourselves, and we are old. But we also love going with grandkids when they can go. We love it. Don't feel guilty, don't let anyone bring you down. People should keep negative opinions to themselves, sheesh.
I'm so happy you had a great time Tori. Was it for modeling clothes or business learning or...? Zach, you're awesome for being a single parent for a wee bit and having energy to spare. Thank God Jackson's OK hoping Jackson can play. Love this podcast so much❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
I haven't even finished listening yet, but I am very much someone to avoid the ER if I can. The first time one of my kids had to get stitches, my husband was freaking out, and I was dismissive, so I asked the pediatricians nurse on call on the phone, and she told me that if it looks like you could put the thin part of a quarter in the gap, it definitely needs stitches. This was one of the best pieces of advice I have ever gotten in determining if stitches are needed. It is really easy to freak out bc of the amount of blood but it has a lot more to do with the actual injury. Y'all did great!
My kids were born in Anaheim. We had a business across the street from Disneyland. Back then, they would give 2 free passes plus some discount tickets for employees to us. So we took them there quite a bit. Depending on their age, I know that they only can handle what is age appropriate. As toddlers, they were just as happy to go to our local amusement park or the playground! Everything else was just crowds and lines and HOT (or raining). For most families now, it costs a fortune to go there! Especially to travel, hotels, meals and park passes can add up to a month's paycheck. Or more! So I get it, they are too young to go and appreciate it, since they can't experience it all. Tori grew up going, it's her happy place. My daughter is the same, she just went for her 40th birthday, for a week! I'm sure they will take them when they all can enjoy the experience. Zack and Tori, you're doing great! Parenting is very confusing, sometimes. I'm proud of you for owning up to your pits and peaks! ❤😊
So so impressed with you Tori for letting Jackson tell what happened to him, it’s assessing his memory if he might have been knocked out. Or have a concussion or whatever The staff can tell if he is talking ok. Eye movement is ok. Moving his head or limbs ect. Vomiting 🤮 or dizzy. Ect 2) as much as we don’t like to think of it. Parents do hurt their kids so that’s another reason they want to hear the child’s opinion at all times. So any parents around please let your child tell the story. It’s for a reason. They want to know if there r other problems. Even if the child starts crying when he tells what happened it’s ok, most nurses will say god you r so strong and brave. So thank you for telling me. Some staff will even make the parents leave the room if they keep interrupting. We want to hear what the child has to say. So parents let the child tell the story. Even Tori your little girl can talk and say what happened you might have to tell what she is trying to say but it’s important.
You guys r an awesome family.. always look 4ward 2 ur podcast.. ur very mature 4 ur ages, all things considered.. I always feel the joy, love & humor you 2 share, even when u r discussing potentially contentious things.. thanx 4 sharing ur journey..
The year Jess graduated high school school we were out at my in-laws for the party and Kaleb at 17 went riding a go cart. I started hearing someone saying he crashed. I looked his way and he's walking to us laughing his head off and blood running down his face. I was so thankful he just needed super glued. You would think as a nurse I wouldn't panic but lordy be. If he ever drove anything like that in the last 13 years no one tells me. Lol
Prayers 🙏 for your family ❤ I have never heard anyone else comment on this before, but little Josiah is the spitting image and personality of Amy's father ❤😂 The facial expressions, the look in his eyes....soooo cute to see❤
So happy you came up on my feed. Subscribed right away. The children are so much older than I saw you all last. Always loved the rapport the both of you share.
Your husband is a very smart man who knows what he is talking about when it comes to the kids listening to your husband have a lot of wisdom though God Amen 🙏
I hope Jackson is doing better. Prayers for a speedy recovery. Poor guy. I recently badly sprained and bruised my left ponky. Dogs leash training incident. Long story short it's still swollen and hurts almost three weeks later. I went into the er because I thought it was broken or at least dislocated. X-ray says just bad sprain and contusion.
You both are amazing, great parents and a great example of working together as a couple and parenting. I have followed you from day one. Thank you for keeping us in your lives.
Tori, I think it’s great that you went on a trip with a bunch of other gals. Zach is a wonderful husband in the way he supports what you do. Y’all are perfect together.
God bless y'all! Please ignore the haters, they're just miserable people with sad lives. In the same vein, don't get too caught up on positive comments either. Just worry about your family, and what God thinks. Y'all are just lovely! And yes... FACTS over feelings!
Praise God that Jackson is okay. Zach, Tori, yall are great parents! It shows and God is blessing yalls family! Zach I will listen to your soccer podcast even if I don't play or like soccer. Yalls channel is one of my favorite. Me and my husband are yalls age and have similar aged children. Yall and us both have a son that is 2 and named Josiah! Lol My Josiahs birthday is march 20th. Yalls Josiah is soo cute!! My oldest is 8 going on 9 and he is almost a black belt in taekwondo! That's our sport that we focus on is martial arts. He's been in Martial arts since he was 3! And now our Josiah will be joining in the spring! I'll have a white belt and a almost black belt kid in Martial Arts! I love it! Thanks for sharing yalls life through the good and bad it shows yall are real and aren't pretending to be someone yall aren't. Have a great weekend! ❤️
I always hated that thing where something happens and you can't decide whether to go to urgent or not. Loved the times where it was really clear - yes, let's go. Didn't love that we needed to go - but at least it was a clear decisions.
So glad I'm Australian.. not once paid for my dr all my hospital stays even private rooms ... with my crohnes .. all free my medication is only $7.90 after $350 it's free rest of the year ... We have the best medical system in the world. . Im so grateful.. I spent 3 months in a private room in hospital after my total colectomy... 50 and never once gave a cent to be in hospital.. I spend atleast 2 months a year in hospital and surgeries... wish every country had our system
I dislocated my pinky finger at the second knuckle during my sisters baby shower that I was hosting. I looked at it, thought I don’t have time to go to the hospital, grabbed it and jerked it back into place. 😂. Thats been almost 7 years. My pinky doesn’t bend exactly right but I wasn’t thinking about me it was all about my sister. You are exactly correct about putting priorities in the right order. ❤ y’all.
KIDDOS...at 68 I can tell you...relationships kind last a minute or a lifetime...true friendships are rare...the relationship between Y'all and your children and relatives when possible are all that matters ❤
Tori you’re damned if you do damned if you don’t - haters will hate regardless … just because you’re a parent doesn’t mean you can’t go on a trip without your kids.
You are both amazing, intelligent, loving parents. I just love watching your podcast. Your children are adorable beyond words. I love your family. 👏🇨🇦❤️
55 years ago, our Uncle brought my brothers and I a little 90 Kawasaki. One day my brother 10-12 Years old was riding the small motorcycle. It was out at the farm and there driveway was almost a mile. Our cousin who was 17-20 years old , was on the back of the bike and my brother was driving. Our cousin ask if he could drive the bike and my brother thought because cousin was older he must know how to drive. When they got up to the house our cousin crashed the bike. Everyone was worried about cousin ( who had a lot of medical history) . The hospital was an hour away. My brother went to my mom and said Mom I’m bleeding, at first mom said your cousin is hurt we are worried about him. My brother then said mom I was on the bike too. My mom was like where are you hurt. I think both was ok, but it was the crazy time.
Took my son to Disney at age 6 and he was so hot and miserable ... I really don't think he had much fun... because he was so grumpy it made it difficult for me to be into it. Later when it was time for my girls to go... I let their dad and aunts and uncles and cousins take them, and I stayed home... Just not into hearing so much complaining and too many people! I am very HAPPY that Tori enjoyed herself at least a bit and didn't have to contend with all that other stuff.
Love you guys. I agree the Healthcare in America is crazy expensive. We need something. I had 4 kids too, we was always at the doctors. I also was not the calm parent, so I was quick to go to the doc.😅😅😅
Fantastic episode today, I enjoyed it so much! You guys are so good at this together! Tori, I just found out that you’re or were a School Teacher, very interesting, Tori! No wonder you’re so patient! I love watching your show today! Thanks for sharing! I’m a big fan of Little People, Big World! I’ve been watching forever and a day! I was so sad , when your parents divorced Zach! Because I so much wanted it to work! But, sometimes things happen that’s out of the control of the children! I being divorced myself to with children! But, you guys are real good at this together! I’m now a Subscriber! Keep the episodes coming!
Mommies need time to decompress and rejuvenate their Spirit. Enjoy your life with family & friends. By the way, your hair is stunning! You’re so beautiful!! Looking forward to baby #4!
Awww. Staples are the worst. 3 kids, had 3 times with cuts and blood. 2 times with stitches. And 1 time staples. They were the worst because its hard to numb the skin when there is no fat. So my youngest daughter felt both staples. She remembers it to this day (15 now, she was 3 when it happened) she says she blacked out for a min because it hurt so bad.
Ouch ! Zach's thumb... It reminded me of my pinky toe injury. I was so happy frying up some chicken walked by little shelf unit in the living room and my toe was aiming the wrong direction 😮 adrenaline really kicked in because there was no pain .. panic yes but no pain... I went through options: ER, Urgent care or pop it back in if I could... I popped it back in. Had a meeting to get to so I was in heels that evening💃🏽
I hope J’s feeling better. That sounds painful. You see an injury happen, you are going to react. Is there a count on all of Jacob’s many injuries? I remember trebuchet and the and the dunk tank. I laughed at the tick in Michigan. Just pull it off and clean it.
