You are doing it right. My husband is President and CEO of five banks in Dallas. I was a minimalist and much less stressed until we moved to a high end neighborhood and then the pressure started. I found myself trying to catch up with the Jones. Then we bought the largest home in the area and I’ve always done remodeling since I was 23 years old. Therefore, I have beautiful things, a massive home, and much I don’t need! I’m 57 now, and I feel very overwhelmed and am trying to part with some things to simplify. My kids are grown and one of them has sold everything he owned and is traveling the world for a year. My husband has not excepted this at all and considers my son a failure. On the contrary, my son is very intelligent and this is an amazing opportunity and learning experience for him. We did not do public school but private. I absolutely agree with you on home schooling. The public schools in this country are horrible. Your children are healthy, happy, and having the chance to BE A KID. I see these young people now who have nothing to look forward to as adults because the are so indulged. It is creating a very sad and spoiled generation. Thank God for people like yourself. I’m hoping you and your new book will influence other young couples. You are a breath of fresh air. I do hope YOU WILL READ THIS! In my heart, I know, if we had not lived so extravagantly, my children would be far better for it today. I know you will not get caught up in all that, as you are a very right thinking person. Kerp doing what you are doing and you will be the envy of most. Congratulations on the wonderful land and Farmhouse. I could see myself doing this! I love to sew as well and am I lover of all things blue and white. I apologize for this lengthy message but do hope you will take the time to read this. Oh, and I’m extremely organized like yourself. I guess I would be a crazy person if I were not at least organized. Can’t wait to see your new kitchen and get your book. Sincere best wishes, Lisa Lowe, Dallas, TX.
Lisa Lowe your son is not a failure for not running his life like his dad did . He will be fine I also live like 1.5 from you 😍
You absolutely have a real job, consider saying you’ve never had a “9 to 5 job.”
I love how you said Jesus is what's important!! 💜💜 I totally agree 💜💜💜🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Amen!
I was homeschooled and went to public school. Homeschooling was BY FAR more efficient, more enjoyable, and prepared me more in life and time management. Public school was fun but I also dealt with some unnecessary insecurities and unhealthy friendships because of it.
I’m such a huge fan of homeschooling and will be home schooling all of my children! It’s so customizable and there is so much more learning you can incorporate!
You’re such an inspiration!
Ellen Osborne Same! I plan on homeschooling our son, he’s 2 :) there’s so much I want him to experience.
So good to know from someone who was raised homeschooled. :)
Sarah Clutter I 100% agree! They get all the school knowledge they need but they also get to experience so much life! We also have a 2 year old son and one on the way! 😁
I was raised in public school, but am a retired homeschool mama. Our son began public school, but we pulled him out before his 5th grade year because the school he was going to was so rough and I was DONE was having to deal with the constant harassment he got from the other kids and his inability to appropriately handle it plus all the calls I was getting from the teachers, etc. We joined an active homeschool support group in our area and we never looked back.
I would love to hear more about your faith. I think the worlds hungry for it. You could share your testimony or start with a q and a and see where that leads. I’m so excited to hear more!
Wow, yes! I would love to hear you talk more about your faith!!! 🥰
Amen Lisa! Jesus is what is most important to everyone! Love to have you speak on Him more. Blessings from Oregon, Christine
Thank you for talking about Jesus! He is everything!!! Great video!
Amen! He is! 🙌❤️
Lisa, I was so glad you to hear you talk about your faith and how you want to incorporate it more into your UA-cam and blog projects. Go for it! You have a huge platform! God is giving you such a wonderful opportunity to share the Truth!
I was raised in a family of 10 and homeschooled. I definitely have a memory from high school of wanting to go to public school REALLY badly. And there were plenty of times I wished I didn't have so many siblings 😂 But as an adult (and especially as a mom) I'm so thankful for my unconventional upbringing! The sister I fought with the most growing up is now my best friend.
This is so great to hear! I know they may go through phases like that, but I think we all do!
I love Jesus, love Dave Ramsey, love antiques, love Cape Cod. So I think you’re pretty cool. You do fun videos and I’m a fan.
What you do is a real job. All that is involved in each video along with everything else you and your husband do each day is real work. I consider you both self employed.
Having grown up a homeschool child from a family of seven children, I can attest that homeschooling was the best way to grow up. I do not regret being homeschooled one moment. My parents were always there for us. Also as far as education and socialization, we have grown up to be much more functional adults than most of our public school friends. Of course my parents were very involved at church and in our community, and we had no shortage of friends in the neighborhood who we played with after school. I don’t I feel like we missed out on anything. In fact from my observation we had a much better education, and opportunities, because of the setting of our homeschooling. We started college at 16 and had an associates degree by the time we graduated high school. Homeschooling, if you are willing to become a home teacher, is amazing. It’s not for everyone, but if you love to learn and to share that with your children it is a wonderful opportunity to create an even greater bond with your children.
Thank you Lisa for all you share on your channel, you have given me so many great ideas.
I totally get it...but you soooooo had a real adult job after graduating college.. being a wife and mother. There are no vacations, no sick time, no 15 minute breaks.It's 24/7-365...and it's awesome! it's not the choice I made but I so admire the women that do :)!
Oh I completely agree with you there! The job I did have was super demanding no doubt. ;)
Thank you for acknowledging how hard some of us work at home. It’s also very difficult to work outside of the home & still manage a household. We women are a tough group who know how to get things done!
Thank you for saying this ❤
tracey jackson I appreciate this comment! It frustrates me that many feminists push the idea that women working outside the home like the man is somehow superior to at-home moms. True feminism should be elevating at-home moms to be EQUALLY important & valued as men who have full time jobs. As a SAHM who has worked from home too, I sometimes wish I could clock in to a job where I get paid, respected, promoted, & could clock out at night. It would be easier than being at home with my 6 little ones many days! Many moms don’t get the true value of being a SAHM (which is sad), yet our mothers do so much for society & the health & well-being of ALL children inside their homes & in their communities. It’s sad that so many don’t see the value in motherhood or feel like less of a woman because they choose to stay home & not be the main breadwinner. We should all love & support each other as mothers, regardless of our professional resume differences. We as women are so much more than that. Thank you to all the mothers who love & care for your loved ones & the children around you. I appreciate you all...job or not. 💗💗💗💗
“Theology of the Home”
I really think you made the most of your graduation, now you are an outstanding bussiness women! And a very caring mom!
I am 72 years old and have been married 44 years - I do not wear a wedding ring - I love my husband (most of the time). Think home school is great - I worked when my son was in school so was not able to do it - he is how in his 30's. Your kids will be fine!!
This is so sweet ;.;
As someone who went to public school and was homeschooled, let me say you won't regret homeschooling your kids! Also, when I tell people I was homeschooled they usually see it as a positive thing. God bless!
So good to know!
Lisa, This was you at your most endearing! Happy Mother's Day!🌹
Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers' here in the comments too!🌹 Konstance
Thank you so much Konstance!
Love your calm vibes 🙂
John Piper is a favorite here as well! Thanks for sharing this. I love that you value motherhood and display so well living passionately and fulfilled as a mother. Something that breaks my heart about our current culture is the growing disregard for motherhood- like having children dumbs down your life- when nothing could be further from the truth! ☺️ When does the book release?
My semi grown homeschoolers(ages 17, almost 20,23) now realize how lucky they were and how great their homeschool years were. It was very easy for both of the olders to transition into college.
Would love to here more about your Christian walk! Watching other video I thought you were Christian, so am I! Our children went to Christian school until it got too expensive then we started to homeschool. Now being grownups, they are happy we homeschooled them. We had 6 children. 3 girls, 3 boys! 🤗❤
Great video! I look forward to seeing how you incorporate your faith more into your channel. I always love your content.
Your views on schooling are so refreshing!
I think you are an awesome mom, Happy mother's Day!🌹I think the way you're raising your kids is truly in line with God's plan for family. Being able to have the freedom to explore their gifts and talents, being curious and pursuing many different interests will help their confidence, and find their God given purpose. I homeschooled my kids when they were younger during the most formative years. Great job to you and Luke. Enjoy the precious tender years, time does fly by❣
Nice to see you! You brighten my day!
Love this video!!! Fellow homeschool mama here! I love hearing how homeschooling looks in your home! So comforting to a fellow homeschool mama. We are very relaxed here in our home as well. Thanks for sharing this!! 💗
I love how proud you are of being a mother. I loved raising my daughter to. I loved being her mother. I also love how proud you are if your Christian faith.
I love playing these videos while I'm doing things. Like I just swept the floor and watered plants while I listened to your q and a. It was great!
Enjoyed hearing a little more about how you homeschool. We love being a homeschool family too! Also really love hearing more about your faith
I loved homeschooling my children! My youngest graduates this year. I love to see and hear of other young moms homeschooling. Keep up the good work.
I love that you are just you. You stand tall and proud and are filled with so much love. We all strive for it but come up short at times. You are satisfied and remain true to yourself and your family. So much love I can feel all the way over here. Thank you.
I homeschool and it’s so
Encouraging to hear from other moms! So excited about your book! That’s awesome!
Great answer to the how you raise your kids/when they grow up!
You are so correct about kids in their early 20’s. It doesn’t matter how you bring them up, they’ll analyze it. Then when they have kids you even get apologies lol.
Robert Morris is amazing. He’s my online church. Thank you for sharing your relationship with the Lord.
I pray you continue to seek God’s will in your life and many blessings cover your life. Thank you for your videos and all you do. You brighten so many people’s day.
When I homeschooled my older 2 children we had lots of structure. Our youngest born 10 years after the older 2. Started homeschooling 6th grade thru 9th. She set her schedule had more freedom to excel on what she was interested in. Her passion was writing. She did her best work from 10 pm to around 1 am. She also read the whole syllabus for required reading for Jr high thru High school. Staying up all night.
Fun to get to know you better after watching you for awhile. Love that you said you want to find a way to share your faith in your brand that is is more important than what you share on you channel...AMEN!! In the end, it really is all that matters. Still love your channel and the simplicity of life you share.
I love the longer videos! Keep them coming! 💜
You also made me feel better about a few topics that you touched on like homeschooling, picky eaters and a few others!
Nice Q+A Lisa. Always enjoy
your videos. All the best and
kind greetings to your family.
Great Video! Enjoyed getting to know you more. Love your outlook on homeschooling, and Christianity.
My in laws are on Christian Health Care and he had a heart valve repair. I remember he told the hospital he was self pay, they set up a payment plan and a few months later Christian Health Care sent a check for the full amount. I'm interested to see what coverage is for your home birth, my medical insurance won't cover it. Keep us updated!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing your life with us. You have a beautiful family!
Lisa, you are my favorite youtube vlogger. (I don't really watch or love youtube to begin with). As a mama, myself, I so appreciate how down to earth and genuine you are. (well as much as youtube allows!) we have so much in common! thank you for sharing a bit of your life with us.
Was so blessed last night listening to your videos while cleaning the kitchen last night by myself. I got two young kids and I learned a lot listening to this video and the one talking about how you get things done with so many kids. And it hit home everything you said about your faith and the things that are most important! I'm glad I subscribed and I'm going to check and see if your book is out yet.
A simple gold wedding band would be lovely.
Lisa you are naturally beautiful.
You do not need diamonds, hair
extensions, silicon nails, or....
I also like to be free of adornments.
Always enjoy hearing more about you and your family. I love your approach on homeschool! I need to relax more and enjoy the homeschool process instead of stressing over it. 😳
Also, thanks for sharing more about your faith! I too attend a non-denomination church and just love focusing on learning Gods word. 🤗
Loved this video. Fascinating in every way!!!
Loved, loved, loved your answer to your conventional schooling question! We homeschool our five too, maybe they will be the cool trendy ones🤣
I love your channel ❤
Thank you, for all your share with us.
I can't wait till you cook again.
I had Christian Healthcare as well. Never had to use it but it was wonderful being able to help others who did. Love the family photos, Lisa. Thanks for sharing. ~ blessings ~
I know that this is an old video, but I so relate to your feelings on jewelry! I love it that you embrace it and don't worry about wearing a "fake" ring. I sometimes feel self conscious of mine (also fake and very cheap), knowing that others take the price of engagement and wedding rings so seriously. This is really refreshing. My husband recently bought me a real gold ring with real emeralds, and I'm always so nervous about losing or damaging it!
Great video!! Love hearing about your life! You remind me a lot of my daughter...you are beautiful & I love seeing all the new “happenings” at your HOME!
Thank you for sharing this information with your viewers! Love all your content, you're definitely an inspiration! (I'm a Catholic mama over here, woop woop!)
My homeschool seems soooo similar in structure😊 You are such an inspiration. God bless!
I'd love to hear your testimony. Thank you for sharing your faith.
I don't think I am that brave.
Farmhouse on Boone the more you do it the easier it gets🥰🥰🥰😘
bbbgrl1 true but maybe in front of 2 or 3 people.
Farmhouse on Boone i know! It took me forever. 🥰
@@FarmhouseonBoone sharing your testimony is a personal thing and I think it's something that is easier to do once you've built a relationship with someone. You can't (and aren't expected to) build intimate relationships with all of your followers. No pressure and only share what you're comfortable with.
Lisa love this! Happy Mother’s Day Weekend ❤️
Would love to hear more on homesteading! Looking forward to your first book!!
I just started following your channel recently (love, by the way!) so I’ve been watching a lot of your past videos. I couldn’t help but chuckle a little when you were talking about your children maybe getting mad at you for not schooling in some weird way. Now look at where the schooling situation is these days! We are going into our third year of homeschooling but I’m seeing SO many families moving over to homeschooling. Our homeschooling kids will totally be on trend! 😂
I am exactly the same as you when it comes to jewellery!
Thank you for speaking so candidly about your life, family, marriage and everything in between. To me you are a breath of fresh air. You remind me of my younger self when my 5 children were small :). Great job!
Love this Q&A, I feel like I’ve gotten to know you and your philosophies so much more and I love hearing them! Such a cool home life experience you are creating and giving your family!
Love your Q&A video. Thank you for sharing with your viewers. You are a blessing 🙏💙
Love watching all your videos!!! So homie, cosy and smart!!!
I was homeschooled for most of my school life, but I also attended a small public charter school for middle school, and another for parts of high school. There were even times when I was hybrid (homeschool for most classes but also enrolled in several outside courses including one at my high school -- they allowed me to take just one class there, and it was awesome!). My parents revisited the choice with us every year and allowed us the freedom to continue homeschool or attend outside classes, depending on our comfort level and also based on whether we needed supplementary assistance.
For example, I always needed extra help with math -- it did not come easily to me but it's a necessary subject to learn. So when my parents realized that our homeschooling wasn't sufficient for my learning style in that particular subject, they tried other options. We got me a tutor for a couple years, and I also took math classes at the high school even while being homeschooled.
I really REALLY appreciate the approach they took where it didn't have to be ONLY homeschool or ONLY public school. We always had a choice, and I still consider myself a homeschool kid since that was my predominant experience throughout. I had no trouble acclimating between the two "worlds" because I was raised with a loving foundation and had a great support system (family relationships, friends from church, and friends from my homeschool co-op) to rely upon which made it MUCH easier to handle the ups and downs of the public school social scene. 😜 I always had a sense that there was much more to life beyond just the nuclear popularity contest -- and even that wasn't too extreme in the smaller schools my parents chose.
Homeschooling gave me countless incredible advantages for life, one of the greatest being my ability to teach myself anything I want to learn. And spending all those years at home with family gave me such deeper and closer relationships with all my siblings than what I typically see from friends who grew up divided into ages/grades for most of their growing up years. I couldn't be more grateful for all the benefits that this arrangement provided.
I definitely went through a short phase in my teen years where I was convinced that my family was "dysfunctional" and a bit too awkwardly weird and counter-culture, haha! But like you said, Lisa, we all go through that and it was very short-lived for me. I find it amusing, looking back. My family is very close to this day and not a one of my siblings regrets all that homeschooling and family time we got to enjoy.
I plan to implement the same approach with my own children: strong preference for homeschooling but with an open mind towards a need or desire for public school experiences, especially in the higher grades which are harder to teach and learn. I personally feel that if someone is planning to homeschool for awhile but not the whole school career, it would preferable to do the homeschooling on the earlier side, while they're still younger and really benefit from a home environment for learning. As they get older, they will retain that early foundation even while entering the "outside world" of school. Also, just to be clear, we did not "stay home" the entire time! We went on very frequent field trips and also got to watch our parents handle everyday life experiences such as purchasing a new vehicle or planning and preparing a meal. We also stayed involved in several strong social circles (including the homeschool group I mentioned and the church family). Overall, I believe our experience was priceless and made us who we are today. I hope my "Homeschool Testimony" will encourage you, Lisa, as well as anyone else interested enough to read this long-winded comment of mine. 😄 I don't think homeschool is the "only way", but I definitely believe it's one of the best ways. Basic essence of my approach is that you customize it for each child, each year, and make sure it's always what will meet their needs best. And it definitely sounds like you do that, which makes me very happy! I loved homeschooling and highly recommend it, provided that everyone involved is up for the task and benefiting from the process. It's wonderful. ❤️
Yay! Another q and a! I hope you do share more of your faith in this platform. If it’s something so important to you, it should be shared! 😁💛 I Hope you get horses one day. That would be so awesome! They are beautiful animals!
Lisa, the video was not long at all! You made it so interesting that I wished it was longer! You are such an inspiration !!
You are an inspiration to me. I’m 68 Mom of 5 and grandma to 12 and Great Grandmother to 2. You get me moving and thinking. I wish I had your brains when I was starting out.❤️
So fun to come back and watch this! I'm doing your blog course right now and you've been incredibly helpful and inspiring. thank you so much!
Oh I’m so happy to hear that!
So interesting! Love your different slant on topics 😊
Thankful for you and the things you share!
I've started watching you this last year and I think these are the videos I've liked the best. I love how you are very humble and honest. You are an inspiration to me. Thankyou.
Wow beautifully said ! I’m so happy I came across your channel dear sister. Yes exactly the only thing that matters in this life is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. God bless you for coming out of Roman Catholicism. As I came from an Irish Catholic family myself, I have come out of darkness and into the marvelous light simply by surrendering my life to Jesus not a church, or a pastor, or a Pope; but simply to Jesus Himself. I read His word daily and obey what it says.
I praise Him everyday for changing my nature and lifting all my addictions and burdens. He is the true and LIVING God May all people come to know Him in SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH, before it’s too late.
Enjoyed the Q&A, Lisa. ☺️👍🏻💖
THIS WAS AMAZING! Thank you! We are so similar but a "few years" apart! hahaha I LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Glory to God!! Can't wait for all the good things to come!!!
On traveling with so many children, Jordan Page from Fun Cheap or Free, here on UA-cam, has a video about cheap traveling with kids. I used one of the websites she recommends and got a plane ticket to Nashville for 1/2 of the price I had checked on earlier. It was AWESOME! :)
Loved this video, Lisa! I have a lot of respect for the way you live life so intentionally. I think that’s one reason you have so many followers. It’s inspiring. I love listening to Patrick Madrid on the Relevant Radio app. You might enjoy him, too:)
That’s great! I go to church with Patrick Madrid.
It’s fascinating hearing about your life with your lovely family! Kind regards to you all from Penny in Liverpool 🇬🇧😊💕
I’m with you about the diamond wedding ring thing. I’ve never cared about having a big rock sticking up on my finger since I’m constantly working with my hands. So I wear a nice wide sterling silver band and that’s it. I love other pieces of jewelry but can;t bring myself to spend money on expensive pieces. I love making my own most of all.
Lovely to hear about you Lisa. Especially about your faith! Just want to share with anyone reading this I found an awesome pastor and apologist here on UA-cam, his name is Mike Winger...such a lovely guy!
John Piper is great! Thanks for the fun Q&A
Thank you for sharing about your faith!!! ❤️❤️ Liked this video a lot!
Your "job" is 24/7 and qualifies as a real adult job. Your home is rightly ordered and this site is pretty cool. Keep the videos coming, it's very encouraging
Thank you for sharing Lis!
Love hearing about who you are as a person and sharing your faith :)
Just chiming in to say that I was homeschooled all the way up through highschool, and I loved it! We are now home schooling our young children. Now heading back to watch the rest of the Q and A 😊
I was homeschooled from 5th grade through high school and am homeschooling my children also!
Loved getting to know you and the family more! You'd love France Bayeux area so many historical places to see and decor you'd love!
Oh I am positive we would love that!
@@FarmhouseonBoone mom mm mm mm
Love your honesty and for being real,,,,,,
We also homeschooled our 3 youngest and we don't regret homeschooling at all.
Our children saw for themselves the benefits of homeschooling!
We did however send our oldest to a small Christian school, and I dont regret that either because he was 11 years old b4 we were blessed with more children, so he enjoyed the time spent interacting with his school friends.
I feel that was important for him ,and he loved school !
Now he is married and has 3 children and they plan to homeschool!🙂
God bless you and your growing family!
I commend you for your parenting style. Everything from your choice of education to not catering to a child's picky eating. It's very 70's style and much needs a comeback. Also, would love for you to share more about your faith, though personal, it's so important and helpful for others. I understand the not wearing jewelry too. It's one more thing to take on and off. You are super cool. ❤️✌🏼️ Happy Mother's Day!!!
I know this video is older but it’s just so nice to hear other moms talking about homeschooling. I never thought in a million years I would be the type of parent who could homeschool my kids, but with the help of one of my friends I’ve started because of the last two years. Even if none of that happened I believe I would’ve ended up homeschooling anyway because of what young children are being taught in school now. My daughter is in fourth grade and could hardly read at the beginning of the year, she refused to work with the teachers at school but as long as we continue to do language arts all summer while I’m on maternity leave she will be at a fifth grade reading level like she supposed to this year. I have prayed so much that we could find a way to catch her up and that answer to o ur prayers was homeschooling. Thank you for being such an encouragement for other parents.❤️❤️
Wonderful video! You are such an inspiration!
Love your videos! You are such an encouragement!
Loved this! You are always so real and this video makes me like you even more than I already. I feel like we’d be great fiends in real life!
Woot woot for the Rhode Island shoutout 🙌🏼 born and raised here!
My husband was homeschooled and I went to public school. He loved being homeschooled and is so grateful to his parents. After talking to him and his siblings and comparing our schooling experiences I have to say I'm pretty envious lol. I honestly can't see any negatives of it to be honest.
You get all your work done in a few hours and have so much freedom to play
You don't deal with mean teachers/bullying like I did
Less stress and learning is more fun (School was always extremely stressful for me. I remember having anxiety attacks even in elementary school).
You can get as much or as little socialization as your family desires. My husband was super involved in church/sports/co-ops/tons of fieldtrips with other homeschool families. (He honestly got just as much if not more more socialization than I did)
We will definitely be homeschooling our children!
Great as always! Always love your content. I just had a baby in Feb with CHM (Christian healthcare ministries), I am not sure if this is who you are with, but I only ended up paying $500 for our home birth, this included all prenatal visits, labwork, and ultrasounds, plus a visit to the hospital due to early contractions. This was my 5th home birth and the first time with CHM... Least amount I have ever paid....,.btw, Happy Mother's Day!
Oh, how awesome. I like listening to John Piper too! And I can't help but feel sad for when these great older pastors begin to say goodbye to us one by one...
Homeschooling is awesome! Keep up the good work!!!
Thank you for sharing a little about your faith...I am also a believer in Jesus and know that what we believe & do about eternity is more important than anything else in this life~ I look forward to more spiritual encouragement in your future videos!
I have been watching your UA-cam channel for over a year now...your content is interesting & nice. Thanks for all you share!🌼
It takes a tremendous amount of energy to create doesn't it. Looking forward to your book.
I get your stance on jewelry. I rarely wear any & when my husband & I got married, I insisted on a small white gold band with a CZ Stone. I wear it when I go out in public, but that’s the only time & only piece I wear. My ears are pierced, but I’ve not worn earrings in almost 10 yrs. I don’t even wear makeup that often anymore, though I do try to eat well & stay in shape for health reasons.
