Oh, Emily, you are so real…makes this Maw-Maw’s heart happy and sad at the same time! I remember those days…I had 3 kiddos, too. They turned out beautifully, are successful, Godly parents, and still want to spend time with us! I wasn’t always the mom I needed to be, but thank goodness kids are so resilient-even on the bad days! God bless you, my dear…all will survive! ❤. Cindi (from WV).
No, you don’t make me too sad…just reminds me of the hard days, as a mom. I look back on them as my season(s) of growth, too! They are necessary and important! 🩷
Good morning…love your video today, I remember the pronged thing in the flower Ikebana bowl is called a frog, I have a larger one that is separate. I remember my mother arranging flowers ant small branches like that? Your kids are adorable especially the little one…love how he seems to talk to the camera….in his own language🥰
Adorable kids 🥰 I spotted that flower frog when you first pulled that bowl out! I was like wow a flower frog! Also I found an alabaster lamp about 8 months ago at Goodwill. It was something that caught my eye and I thought I need to buy this and it’s only 9.99. Got it home and did google lens on it and wow 😮 I scored! It’s beautiful. I’m manifesting you will find one out in the wild too!
My back aches thinking about you carrying a baby while shopping. Brave to have those little hands around the breakables but he responds so nicely to your requests.
Oh my goodness I went to TheFox Mercantile in September when I was in Bradenton beach for my bff’s birthday. It is an adorable little spot with the cutest treasures and I loved just hanging out in the garden having coffee and a bite to eat. I hope they have recovered from the storms.❤
I'm happy to hear that!! So far nothing has popped up and it's been 8 days. 😭 our soil is like sand since we are so close to the beach so I am nervous even with the good soil we mixed in
Here you go! God has created me to do Him some definite service. He has committed some work to me which He has not committed to another. I have my mission. I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next. I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons. He has not created me for naught. I shall do good; I shall do His work. I shall be an angel of peace, a preacher of truth in my own place, while not intending it if I do but keep His commandments. Therefore, I will trust Him, whatever I am, I can never be thrown away. If I am in sickness, my sickness may serve Him, in perplexity, my perplexity may serve Him. If I am in sorrow, my sorrow may serve Him. He does nothing in vain. He knows what He is about. He may take away my friends. He may throw me among strangers. He may make me feel desolate, make my spirits sink, hide my future from me. Still, He knows what He is about.” ― John Henry Newman
Awww! Too bad someone from the store wouldn't have helped you to the car with your purchases! Next time, ask! Those baskets were great! Lovely yard with the Theotokos statue! Admiring it!
You're probably right! I could have but was pretty wiped out after all that haha and thank you. She is actually plastic 🤫 but I love her design and she was affordable 🤍 my parents bought her for me!
Emily, I love your statue of the Blessed Mother. It doesn’t seem too heavy as I watch you move it. Is that true? Will you share the source? Thanks and blessings!
Good morning Emily! I think your outside space looks beautiful & you've done a great job! I don't have a infant but i am raising a 3 & 5yr old, the oldest being in kindergarten. And at my age, I'm the grandma, its tough! I just don't have the energy i once had, and physically, I don't have the strength i once had! Plus, we're trying to re-program, if you will, these babies. Coming from no real structure, eat & sleep whenever they wanted, no real discipline. Don't get me wrong, their mom loves them & is a good mom, but with her not working, they just didn't have no time frames & are spoiled very rotten i should say! But its been tough, especially having a child 24/7 with NO breaks! But with strength from the Lord, I'll be Ok! I want to see that they have the best chance in life, and teach them about the Lord. I've seen the cactus set somewhere, can't remember where, but it was in a Good Will somewhere! Oh that old enamel ware pot with the lid, loved that! I want to collect more pieces, preferably with the red stripe, those are the ones my old granny had! I want them for decor only of course!😊 Loved that wood no! But I would probably stain it then wax it down with antiquing wax to make it look old. Love the pottery piece with the spiky flower frog! Hey, i understand! Its Ok tho, better to find a piece of trail mix than a used tissue or something like that!🤢😄 Great haul! Lots of pretty pieces for candles! Enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing! Pray you have A blessed week!🙏🏻
You are such a good mom. You never got frustrated with your kids and even had an engaged conversation while you browsed. ❤
It's taken practice and I'm far from perfect but thank you ❤️

Thank you Cindi!! It's a season of lots of growth for me ❤️ I hope I don't make you too sad though 🫠 you are encouraging me!

I find the times I don’t feel great but apply myself to reap exponential benefits. I’m sorry it was a rough day, I’m so proud that you all persevered.
Yes!! Thank you ❤️
I love the progress on your garden. The patience and inclusion you have with your boys is so endearing. God bless.
Thank you so much!
Love the small nativity scene perfect for a little frame. I can just picture it on the windowsill above your kitchen sink.
I can't wait to find a frame for it!!
Love the John Henry Newman quotes-He has not created me for naught ❤and He does nothing in vain❤
It's so beautiful put!
Jasmine is looking great on the trellis!

Aw I'm so glad you've been!!! They got hit so hard. I followed along on their rebuilding process on Instagram but they lost SO much 🥲
Ikebaba vase! I just found a good sized one while out thrifting. So pretty.
I love it! Can't wait to try arranging in it
Loved the yard work project.
Thank you! Was satisfying
Just love you and your channel .

What about putting a candle in that yellow ceramic bowl too, that would be beautiful!
Oh that would be LOVELY! Thank you for this ideas
Flower frog!

I love the glassware. I'm currently getting into candle-making too. I've been drawn to thick cut glass. Yula, South Africa ❤❤❤.
Oh that sounds so beautiful!!!

Garden is looking great. Your garden is always a work in process. That’s the best part. Enjoy.

Direct sow flowers such as cosmos, zinnias, marigolds, gomphrena , are easy to grow. Hope they do good for you. Great video.
I'm happy to hear that!! So far nothing has popped up and it's been 8 days. 😭 our soil is like sand since we are so close to the beach so I am nervous even with the good soil we mixed in

I love this quote so much 🙌
It's so beautiful put!
Beautiful thrift hall
Thank you! 🤗
I always enjoy your videos!!
I appreciate that!
I follow Ashely and Dino too!
That are wonderful!!
My thrift stores are no way has good has yours. You got some really good pieces
This one is particularly good in my area!!!
Awww! Too bad someone from the store wouldn't have helped you to the car with your purchases! Next time, ask! Those baskets were great! Lovely yard with the Theotokos statue! Admiring it!
You're probably right! I could have but was pretty wiped out after all that haha and thank you. She is actually plastic 🤫 but I love her design and she was affordable 🤍 my parents bought her for me!
Greetings from Dallas! Love your channel! Could you please provide the link for the shop where you bought the Nativity scene card. Thank you 🙏
Yes! It's in the description
That footed glass container looks like a Spooner to me...
I had to look up what a spooner glass was! I think you are right!
Nice haul! If I couldn't thrift, my house would not be decorated! Your little Benji has such a cute voice. ( not sure of the spelling of his name 🙃)
Haha same!! And you got it right 🥰
But in the beginning of vlog you had a wicker shade in your hand lol
At 19.22
I didn't like the one at the thrift store. Something about the texture 🤷🏻♀️
Go back & get the wicker shade! It'll grow on you. Grab those baskets too.
Emily, I love your statue of the Blessed Mother. It doesn’t seem too heavy as I watch you move it. Is that true? Will you share the source? Thanks and blessings!
Isn't she beautiful! She's actually made of plastic. But I just love the design of her. Here's the link. rstyle.me/+9qdw8_gvuJeckyLr9ZI5VQ
Can you guys believe these prices and pieces??
❤
🤗
How fun will that be to make candles! I’ve always wanted to but I’ve never done it!!
I hope I can give you some inspiration!
