For a child to see how parents argue and work ik out is very healthy in my opinion. Children learn how to argue and learn that it is a normal part of life and not weard or stressfull.
Test
I wholeheartedly agree with this
I agree, seeing that you treat each other with respect even during disagreements is so important and how to have healthy arguments with no physical or psychological violence
Came here to say this same thing! It's not necessarily the arguing, but them seeing the two of you come to a solution or compromise is a wonderful way to show how to work out disagreements
I really agree I had a friend that never saw their parents fight and so when they were in a relationship and they were fighting because people fight she like thought that something was wrong with her like that their relationship was doomed because they argued about one little thing they had a disagreement but because their parents never showed her that that’s normal she thought it was like this weird and that you weren’t allowed to fight people who loved each other didn’t fight about stuff.
I was today years old when I learned or heard of the term Mennonite lol
Thank you for quite literally making me laugh out loud with Zach’s ceiling story. 😂 love you guys.
That was the funniest thing I've ever heard. I started crying how much i laughed 😂
You have no idea how much I needed this today. I was able to sit and work on some crochet christmas gifts and just contemplate my marriage. The part about disconnect and thanking each other for the things we take for granted hit me today! It's been hard to feel connected recently with being pregnant with our first and being terribly sick. Thank you for your words of wisdom and encouragement. God knew I needed this today!!
Hi Kayla congrats on soon becoming a mom. I am in the same situation!! It is soo hard to connect when you are feeling so sick during pregnancy. But I guess it is a good preparation for the time after we give birth 🥰🥰 You are not alone 🙂 I try to communicate a lot with my husband and tell him how I feel every day.
I wish you a great pregnancy and a beautiful birth!!!
Hey I hope the morning sickness is easing for you as the pregnancy goes on! Congrats on your first baby! :D
@@isabbygabbyorcrabby thank you! Unfortunately it wasn’t morning sickness that got me. 4 colds, the flu and Covid. All in the first 14 weeks. 😅 thank you for your encouragement’

I was studying Chinese and I don't know how I ended up here 😅❤❤❤
That's the miracle of social media 😀
But hey, you ended up somewhere really good, I often find myself watching the craziest stuff I am even not interessted in haha
We had the tiniest wedding. Parents, siblings & grandparents only. It was fantastic. I wouldn’t change that ever. Because all of those people are constants in our life. It was also a massive cost saver.
Love this video. Who else laughed at the part when they thanked each other? You 2 forever keep this kind of relationship and your marriage will just continue to get even stronger. I married my HS best friend. Our marriage is very much like yours from the beginning. Was together in HS, split and reconnected 6 years later. Total of 20 year's of pure happiness.... wish so many people would have these kinds of value, there wouldn't be so many failed marriages. Keep being wonderful role models for everyone that follows your channel. 😍🥰
This is my fave channel. I love living vicariously through you guys 💛
I love when y’all do these! This is how I found your UA-cam I got engaged and married this year and I’m 19 so I was seeking guidance. Watching your channel has given me so much clarity. I’m so thankful for you and your family God Bless y’all!❤️
Our 7 year anniversary was on the 28th of November. We only knew each other for 6 months when we got married. More in love than ever, we are so happy together! I was 25 and my husband 31 when we got married. Congrats guys!
Totally agree. Life brings new challenges with every season but that’s why we have to mindfully make a decision to keep putting in the effort.
love y’alls relationship so much!! it warms my heart to see your love for one another. my husband and I have been working on bettering our communication & intimacy etc and you guys truly represent the marriage we are working to create! amazing role models for others and your children!
ps I can’t believe people still ask if someone wants children, more children, etc. especially if they know said person has a history with miscarriage.
you NEVER know what someone is battling. when I had just had a loss, my in law asked when we were giving him a grandbaby. I fell apart.
don’t ask people this question.
whether they have kids already or not.
Aw. This was fun!
My dad left the old colony church in his late teens. His family is still in it, but so thankful my Dad found peace and assurance of salvation. Thanks for sharing. I could relate on so many levels. My husband and I got married young as well and have no regrets but I did agree with you on dating at home. It’s too easy to watch a movie and get lazy. Those dating ideas were great. Maybe it’s time for bikes haha.
We are in our 30s now and though teens have their ups and downs, there’s a lot of fun and laughter and connecting in this stage of life. I have loved my 30s the most so far.
9th grade sweethearts here too! Just had a convo with our kids about how mommy and daddy’s relationship is the most important. They were initially offended 😂that my husband is my favorite person but we explained why it’s good for THEM when daddy is mommy’s favorite and mommy is daddy’s favorite.
Finishing my breakfast, grabbing a nice hot cup of coffee and watching you two talk while my children play and entertain themselves is the HIGHLIGHT of my morning.
8:34 I believe that if you hide "arguments" from kids it leads them to believe that relationships are easy-breezy things and that people don't have differences in opinion and what that ends up looking like later on in life, especially once they're with their partner. relationships are complex. Now being violent and passive aggressive in arguments in front of kids is different than having an intense discussion of different opinions on a whatever the subject may be.
i appreciate these videos and its lovely how loving you two are, it is nice to see a healthy relationship on UA-cam that holds good morals/values.
I love watching your channel :) I’m not married nor have children lol just a college student but I love thinking about my future and can see some similarities there!
Any question about baby #4 is going to make people wonder if you're pregnant, and i know it's silly to assume anything, but you moved on from that question very quickly 😆
What time stamp? I missed it 😆
@@elisabeth859 17:10
In regards to intimacy postpartum, I think it would be helpful to expand on this question in future Q&As by giving examples. Making time for each other and intentional time is something a lot of couples know to do, but don't know HOW to do - do you schedule sex? How do you prepare a distraction free environment physically/mentally? Do you have someone else watch the kids? Those kinds of details would be helpful to other couples who are trying to do the same thing x
This is a vanilla Christian family channel lol I doubt they’d dip in to that.
I’m still listening to Fit for a King, because it was never just a phase mom!!!!!! 😂
I want to be your friends haha! We have also been together since 14, we are also the same age, we also have only had each other, we ALSO did a California trip and redwoods and camped along the way! My husband is the same as yours. Selfless, full of love, doesn’t ever feel disconnected. Haha it’s like listening to our story! 🤣
I love how open you guys are even though you're introverts. ♥️ I really like how you mention you're christians and the time you spend on your believes but it's not to the extend that it's annoying or pushy. I personaly don't believe and i find your videos nice to watch. I especially like these videos because they make me think of my marriage and how i can do beter. We're having a bit of a rough time since the kids (2kids, age 9months and 2y) and i think it's because we put them first, always. While you suggest to put you husband first. ♥️
If you’re “arguing” in healthy ways it can be positive for your children to see because you’re showing a healthy form of anger expression and conflict resolution. There’s nothing wrong with that.
Such love for you guys! Rocking my 2 month old boy while watching your channel brings me peace and I don’t feel nearly as lonely in this journey as a first time mom. Feels like visiting friends :)
One of the biggest reasons I love your channel is because, not only do I like you guys, but you are riiiight ahead of me in your season of life. My husband and I have been married 5 years this month, and are expecting our third child. We also have dealt with mc, we homeschool, we’re Christians, just a lot in common.
I love seeing Eloise the most of your kids in a way, because my oldest is just a couple months older than Theo, I believe. So it’s our next chapter with our oldest. It always excites me. 😊
So weird, I was just thinking about the idea of arguing in front of your kids or better put; having conflict/disagreement in front of your kids and how I think it’s really important for them to see it and like you said see it resolved which is the most important part in doing it in front of them. I think it’s important for children to see how conflict should be rightly handled and it’s even a chance to act out repentance and the way of forgiveness.
As someone who lives in a Mennonite area, it's hilarious to hear you say "noodles and cream gravy" 😅 i understand you say that since most of your viewers would have zero idea or kilkje and schmonfat 🤪
i just wanna say it seems like zach has gotten more comfortable with talking to the camera and it shows!! i LOVE hearing his side of things!!! ❤️❤️❤️ you guys are awesome :)
I think kids need to see that mum and dad do disagree and do argue but that you treat each other with respect even in an argument. Dealing with someone disagreeing with you and how you treat each other when something annoys you or you really don't like something or you just get frustrated and angry. Cause arguments will happen in your kids lives and it's important they know how to be treated and how to treat others while arguing.
Wow you guys, you figured it out. I commend you both. God being the center of your home✅ being only with each other intimately ✅, communicating, respecting, serving each other, like home renovations, laundry etc, ✅loving other.✅ As long as you both are a team those ups and downs of life can be climbed and achieve. I really enjoyed listening to you. 48 years ago my husband and I were very much like you both now. Christian’s, very young, with kids, house and here we are. Our love is stronger then ever and our grandkids are now our joy. God bless your beautiful family. Merry Christmas!
Laughing so hard at Zachs story!!!!
On a serious note, remembering to not let things eat at me that aren't a big deal and put my husband first are some goals I really need to work on :)
When I heard the part talking about embarassing stories, I couldn't help but think of William and his having the same wholesome goofiness as his dad and how lovely that is. Your family is so wholesome and your videos light up my day. God bless!
It’s so good for the world to see what a loving, healthy, real, Christ centered marriage looks like. The world is tearing apart the family structure. So it is good for others to see that the family, children and marriage is a wonderful blessing! :)
Sometimes I feel like I’m crazy we never had a problem after bsby
Zach and I listened to the same music in high school 😂
Maaan I wish my parents didn't bicker around me when I was little and I am not talking about small little arguments about stupid stuff I mean like huge massive fights throwing random inanimate objects around each other yelling out their lungs ,slamming their door etc. I think it really scared me as a child I just couldn't take it I mean my parents never hit each other but I would get so paranoid whenever my parents started fighting around each other because I knew that after they were done fighting they would start throwing their anger out on me
Oh my goodness, when you talk about Mennonites, I am also Mennonite! I have relatives, who I always call “old order Mennonites.” As they wear dresses and head coverings, but I also have some that wear just skirts and modest clothing with lace covering. And then there’s me, who is at a more… Modern church where you wear normal clothes just like you guys. So if anyone ever hears that I am a Mennonite, they ask where my horse and buggy is… I always have to correct them that that’s Amish (haha). but people automatically think that I should be looking a different way… Still a Christian, but just interesting thing and I get it😊
I cried laughing at Zach’s embarrassing story because the literal same exact thing happened to me. I was on the floor laughing but also crying and my husband (fiancé at the time) didn’t know whether to help or laugh, too. 😂😂😂
I’m so happy to hear I’m not the only one 😂😂😂 - Zach loeppky
Zach wanting to nap after all that talking is so relatable as an INFJ 😂
Perfect xx just about to cook dinner and love to videos while doing stuff around the house
All what I can say is you and your family is so sweet.
Stay blessed stay happy.🥰
I laughed so hard at the story of Zach jumping into the ceiling. My very tall husband knocks his head on things, like light fittings, because he never seems to see them, and I have no idea how he doesn't see them. I laugh so hard at him, and Zach's story reminded me of that. Thanks for the fun.
Why are you knocking Christian Metal? lol I take my 11 year old to Skillet concerts and I want to take him to Wage War soon. Not everyone speaks the same musical language but at least we all have something. :)
Thank you for sharing! There is something so special and sweet about your family. It’s very beautiful to see.
In 30 years I'll be almost 70. Let's not think that far ahead.
The fact that Zach listened to august burns red, for today and oh, sleeper makes SO MUCH SENSE. My husband and I are the same esp since we met at a metal show that he was playing guitar at 🤣🤣🤣 we’ve been together 13 years now. It brings the people together.
I absolutely love you guys and really admire your family and relationship. These kinds of videos you do are always so insightful and I’m very grateful I get to watch you guys on here. One of my top favorite UA-cam families for sure! 🥰
Love you guys. We got married almost 2 years ago at 25/29 respectively. Now we have a newborn and a 16m old - and I look up to you guys so much. Really value your advice and thoughts. Thanks for this video! :)
Absolutely loved every part of this video ❤ being a mom of two it took me a few days to watch the whole thing and it literally made my whole week 🥲
Oh goodness the 30 year question - literally matched Zach’s face on that one. Like eshhhh 😅😅
Do the women still wear coverings in the church you guys grew up in?
hello , thank you for this video
Zach’s story at the end was so funny. I love these sit downs with the 2 of you. Thanks for doing this.
Ouch! That ceiling story 😮
I laughed so much 😂 love watching videos of y’all together ❤
You are so precious, precious, precious!!!!!😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗🤗
The end was the cherry on the cake 🍰! 😂😂😂
Noodles and cream gravy aka Kielkje and schmantfat 😅
Mmmhmmm 😋
It's interesting that you almost came to blows over love languages and got a brain injury jumping for joy. I must watch more of you people. 😂 Actually I came here looking for part 1 of the declutter series. I wanted to find it before watching the Dec 16 video.
But why can't he put his hand there in frame! LOL I love it. I have to remind my husband of this on business Zoom meeting though! Like honey....
we are members of Willowpark Church in Kelowna- even tho we r now in White Rock-and people always raise their hands/arms there......
I LOVE that you were interested for a while before dating. I married my high school sweetheart too. We went through a similar thing as you. I was engaged at 17 though we didn't marry until 20 and 21 because we were saving money and were bad with finances back then. We've been together 22 years, married 18, had kids when I was 23, 25, and now will birth the third at 39 (I know such a gap). Most of my family members married at 17-21, so no one cared in our family about how old we were while outsiders didn't get it.
Love bike rides!! It is fun to do that as a family too. I loved learning about you two. I am pretty new to your channel and am enjoying it. Happy 7 year anniversary!!! You gave great advice!! I agree. . marriage should be at the top and your kids are an extension of your marriage. Our kids love seeing how we are together. It is really important in an age where so many families fall apart.
Saw For Today live with my husband and kids when they were smaller haha. So cute. Josh Garrels is great.
It is funny because I am Mennonite! I was not raised in it. I started going to a Mennonite church about 9 or 10 years ago now.
My husband and I wish we eloped too since we wanted to marry earlier but my mom wouldn't let us elope because she wanted all her friends there (and she knows like 400 people)...
love your humour. take this comment in the hope it boosts your channel further, you deserve it for this hard work you're doing continuously!
It is fun to revaluate live languages . I think it's common for them to change throughout the years... I know for my husband and I, after almost 12 years of marriage we have actually kinda traded... Affection was huge for me when I was younger, now it's a big thing for him...
Have you guys ever heard of the band Lantern By Sea? They are a local band to where I live and they are still kinda small and they aren’t a ‘Christian band’ but they are Christian people in a band haha. Their music is very hopeful and beautiful. When you guys were talking about music I was reminded of them and I just felt like you guys might like them! They also just came out with a new Christmas song that’s so good. It’s a cover of ‘O Holy Night’ and it is so beautiful. (Also hi I love your channel and I have learned so much from your little family with every video, thank you for being a light and showing your children how to be a light that points to God.)
I don't feel comfortable sharing things that I want to buy with my husband because he is too controlling. It's just a really weak part in our marriage
Oh yeah, every time my husband and I hug our 3 year old RUNS to get in between us. It’s become a joke, but he loves it and also can’t stand not having attention for a moment. 🤣
I honestly love all your content but I love your stuff with Zack... You guys remind me of a younger version of myself and my husband 💕 we have been together over 15 years now and have three kids and we are genuinely happy with each other and the life we have built from age 20! God bless
When my husband and I share a kiss, our 3 year old daughter will come in between us and pretend she's going through a car wash lol She loves to join in just like your kids do.
I disagree on letting things slide. Many women put SO much pressure on themselves to 'get back to norma' after baby... Do yourself a favour and give yourself time to adapt. Also, disagree that you need to clearly separate married life from family life. Especially with small kids, they will naturally be a part of your life! Also, they will grow up. You will have time without the kids at home. Just appreciate that time and stop trying so hard to get the 'pre-baby' arrangements back at all cost. Let it slide;).
You will have time after your kids grow up but you also need an identity after they grow up. You need to have a relationship with your spouse with and without kids. 😊
I think what they mean with the separating marriage and kids is you still need to make your relationship a priority. Because if you don’t hang out don’t talk don’t do all the things to have that relationship then your relationship is going to fall apart. So by time your kids are grown you are already divorced and no longer together. I think they mean they still want to be able to have that connection even with kids in their lives.
@@Gabrielle.Steele But family life is THE major factor that makes you talk about common things and solve problems together and so on. And also, you don't have children to just spend time as a childless couple. And where do you guys get that threat tone of voice "you would be divorced yada yada...". I know plenty of couples who never had the money or the possibility to leave their kids to someone and go on dates, and they worked long hours too, they are now lovely retired couples who cherish the memmories of their youth with their kids and each other. None of them "fought" for their relationship "despite" having kids. Give people some maturity credit.
@@miszk5690 you dont need money or whatever to go do things. Just some time to talk and hang out with your spouse. Sure talking about kids and having that common connection is normal obviously but if you and your spouse never talk then that’s obviously not good.
I’m LOLing at your use of “roof” instead of “ceiling”. 😂
You guys are a beautiful couple. I love your channel and your videos help me so much as a mama💖💖💖💖💖💖
OMG that is sooooo funny!!! The jumping into the ceiling
Also thank ls for sharing, you’re so genuine and it’s inspiring ❤
If love to hear more about your wife journey and also his husbands journey. I loved your last video on it
I love you guys and i want what you have some day by Gods grace.
What are noodles with cream gray?? That sounds good
“You like the cheers thing” dying
love all your videos where you’re real and yourselves, talking about Christianity too. learn so much from you guys that I hope to take into my future!
i understand it can be hard to create this content and have time away from the kids, home, and work but I LOVE these sit downs you do with your self and partner :) We love it, it’s casual it’s comfortable.
Thank you for making amazing content ❤️
Which love language test did you take?
I couldn’t stop laughing at Zach’s leap of joy😂😂
Oh my gosh, the story at the end made me laugh out loud. Your poor head Zach.
Cute 🥺🥺🥺
seeing you and zach laugh is so heartwarming, too cute
“Do you like the cheers thing today? 😃”Hahahahah
👌👍
This video was so wholesome and sweet🥹
I loved Zach’s story at the end. 😂
It is so enjoyable to see you two talk together ❤️
I love you guys,,, but I love metal 😂
❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️you are so cute❣️❣️❣️❣️
Josh garrels yes!!! Lol
This was good. 😊
Your so adorable 🥰
You should start a podcast !
I just love these!
Very cool❤🎉
As a Christian woman who is married to a non Christian watching these marriage q&as can make me so depressed . If anyone is thinking about getting married to someone outside of the Christian faith and don’t think it matters… it really really does.
Apart from the obvious, what do you feel is the difference?
@@nataliaciotucha4153 having Christ as the center in your home effects every aspect of life. Without having Christ as our living hope you are then hopeless . It effects mental health . It effects the way you treat your spouse your children your outlook, finances. The why behind what we do . Joy vs happiness there’s a lot that goes into it
Praying for you
❤❤❤❤
