if you want lighthouses you should travel to Atlantic Canada. Nova Scotia's Peggy's Cove is so iconic and a huge tourist attraction in rural NS. Prince Edward Island is surrounded by beaches and lighthouse too.
Aliesja Foster That sounds so beautiful and somewhere I'd love to visit! But there's a gorgeous lighthouse where I live in San Diego where E + J could visit too, and then they could go hang gliding near La Jolla. After that, I'm sure there's thousands of people here who'd love to hear Jared play his guitar! But I'd still love to visit your special part of Canada!
Congratulations, Ellie and Jared. I've been a silent viewer for the past year absorbing all the overflowing kindness, love and compassion you two have for people. I haven't left any comment to any of your videos until now. I believe, the culmination of all your charity work may only be fully recognized by the future pregnancies and kids that will be conceived and born through your IVF grants, but hey, receiving an award for your act of generosity does, too! 😄 My warmest, warmest congratulations! May God bless you more that you may be blessings to more people! Regards to Jackson and Calvin! 👨👩👦👦
Hopefully now you will be inspired to leave more comments! I was always kind of scared to comment on UA-cam videos for some reason, until I started my own channel!
Marc Daryl Mateo Great comment Marc! Please leave more! You are articulate and very well spoken and I agree with what you said! Ellie and Jared are a blessing to all of us and for them to share a glimpse into their lives and of Jackson's and Calvin's is enriching to their viewers. So please continue to share your thoughts Marc, because they are valuable. I was shy to share mine at first too, but then you get used to it. Everyone has valuable things to say!
Beautifully said! Ellie and Jared you are wonderful people, It just must be such an awesome feeling to be able to help someone to the extent of your generosity! Congratulations to you both!
@Marc: What a kind loving comment! When a couple has the oppty for IVF it gives them hope...which is a precious thing.I suffered for infertility for six years. Fortunately one cycle of fertility injections worked for me. Grateful. Always.
🎈 Congrats! You guys totally deserve the Award! You really are such an inspiration and have changed and will continue to change the lives of so many! 🎈
Cullen & Katie I had a faucet like that. It drove me crazy! The only haunted thing about it was when it hit the bottom of the dumpster I threw it in! I just think those faucets have a propensity for turning on by itself when the mechanics of it start to loosen up.
I cannot believe you guys are in this situation. You guys deserve everything and more for this act of kindness. This is the most beautiful thing I've EVER seen in my entire life. I just want to cry. You guys will be remembered for this beautiful gift, hope you're having a great day ❤👶🏼
I'm glad she didn't let that support group get to her in a negative way, instead she turned it into a positive and made an impact on others in a great way!
Oh Ellie & Jared. This brought me to tears! The first video I saw of yours years ago was the phone call when you found out you were pregnant with Jackson. You two truly are an inspiration to couples like us who are struggling to get the family we want so desperately. Maybe it's the fertility meds, but this made me super emotional. Thank you for having the courage to share your journey ❤
They are so inspiring! I get teary eyed every time I think of the amazing work they did. And one of the families just found out they are pregnant!!! I wish there were more people in the world like E&J. :) Prayers for you and your journey!!
could not ask for better role models! this is so amazing and you guys deserve it so much. thank you for being such a good inspiration to be a better human. grateful that i found you years ago! so happy. congratulations and much love from germany.
I'm so glad you guys decided to call to get Calvin checked for T1D! I also thought about T1D but didn't want to overstep/cause alarm. Those mama intuitions are there for a reason and you know Calvin the best in order to get those intuitions. congratulations on the award! you guys are beyond amazing and do such wonderful things for others. Thank you for spreading awareness and kindness!
What a true act of selflessness. To not just stop after you were able to have a baby, but to go out of your way to help someone else also receive such a special gift. You guys inspire me to be a better person every day.
Congratulations Ellie & Jared on your award! I was crying when the speaker was introducing you guys. You ARE an inspiration to many of us and I am excited that more people were introduced to your giving and compassionate hearts. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.
Congratulations! You both absolutely deserve that award. I get so emotional every time I share your story with people and talk about how kind and generous the two of you are. You are truly an inspiration. And Ellie, as far as wanting to see a lighthouse; I'm sure there are plenty of places you could go to see one but Maine during the summer time is something you have to see. Lots of beautiful locations with the most amazing lighthouses! Congratulations again, thank you for being you and sharing your lives with all of us.
Thank you for being so open with YOUR support group - your subscribers. You guys are so deserving of this award and I think it's a beautiful testament to your humble and generous nature! Truly inspirational!
I have tears in my eyes watching this. Ellie and Jared, you have changed millions of people's lives, not to mention, you have practically helped give 7 couples children, and all of this was because you were brave enough to share your journey to having Jackson. You have made such an impact over these last 4+ years, where most people dream for 4+ years about changing the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and congratulations on an award well-deserved.
You guys definitely deserve this award!! Knowing you did all these acts of kindness without recognition creates an even more reason for you to get this award!!
This video has made me cry both happy and sad tears. My heart just yearns for mothers and children i always say "if every person for one day would be positive and uplift just one person that, that day would forever change the would'. Watching your videos/life and how you find whether big or little the situation you always find joy and peace about how it ended. i'll never know if you have seen this but Thank you for being real, thank you for taking the time to bless people through youtube and all over the world.
I had to cry when ellie had tears in her eyes after getting the award. you guys are so wonderful. I am sending all the best wishes to you from Germany.
Jared you do play in front of a large crowd,every time you play on here with your dad you play for over 1 million people. So proud of you guys. Congratulations.
This video made me very emotional. Seeing Ellie hold the award made me cry. You two bring such a light to the world. I am so thankful I came across Calvins birth video just a few months after he was born and haven't missed a video since. Congratulations on your success. I wish you the best of luck when you start to grow your family. ❤
well deserved Ellie and Jared you have inspired all of us to do something good for someone. I love watching you because of all the positive you bring. love you congratulations!
I am still young, and I might not be able to comprehend the adult life yet, but I am getting close. You guys have set a perfect example of what a good family looks like. Happy, fun, loving, and inspiring. I want to congratulate you on your award, you were truly deserving. And I want to thank you for inspiring and putting smiles on all 1 million subscribers. Thank You
I totally recommend sky diving, it is so much fun! A group of friends and I went literally hours after we graduated college, and I would love to do it again. Glad you all had a fun night out and congratulations!
I don't comment a lot because your channel is so big but I just have to say how proud I am of the two of you, you are making a difference. I'm also glad someone mentioned diabetes because that's what I was thinking. I'm chronically ill and have been to many doctors and I totally get what you're saying about almost having to prove something before it will be considered to be looked into....keep on keeping on! God Bless and Congratulations!
Them presenting that award to you both made me cry, it was very touching!!! Ellie & Jared I wish I could tell you how much it means for me that you share your daily lives with us all your positivity your kindness and the love you have to give is amazing, I love you guys 😊 your hearts are enormous ❤️
May or may not have started crying when you guys were walking across the stage accepting your award! You are such a beautiful couple both inside and out! Thank you for being such a positive and inspiring example for so many, we love you!!
I recently had my 20th surgery and that surgery was a tumor removal that was on my uterus and left ovary that led to them having to remove it so things like this makes me smile that you guys are giving the opportunity to people like me who don't have it so easy. Thank you so much.
When the award was given to you "I teared up" 😢 just reminded me of the time I lost my baby boy Zachary Aaron he was stillborn 👼🏼 7-14-12 he would be 5 this yr. I miss him so much but...thank you for caring for all these ppl enough to give like you have, its amazingly a true picture of love, caring & a selfless act of true kindness, you two are such humble ppl to care for couples that's has faced problems such as these...thanks Jared & Ellie 💖 "a heart of giving is the best" 💝
You guys truly deserved that award. Your infectious generosity and kindness really goes such a long way and you've given families the miracle and beautiful gift of starting a family of their own from simply sharing your kind hearts with us. You guys should both feel so, so proud of yourselves for the amazing impact that you've had on so many people's lives every single day. You are incredibly kind, caring, giving, inspirational and this world truly needs more people like yourselves to bring more inspiration and light into it.
Congratulations you two on receiving this special award! It amazes me how two people like yourselves can do something so big for someone in need. You guys are so caring and humble for doing something that had had such a profound outcome on not one couple struggling with infertility, but six. Your videos were the reason why I started watching you in the first place shedding light on my husband and I's own struggles with infertility and struggling to get pregnant the last three years. So I just want to say a little thanks to you two for doing what you do. You have helped not only me getting through this difficult journey, but others too.
Huge Congratulations! This made me cry tears of joy. You two are an amazing couple and inspiration to so many. My son and daughter in law have suffered 4 miscarriages trying to start their family. Prayers for all the couples struggling to start their family. Wanda in PA
Those blue paintings with the silhouettes of the couples were mine 💕❤️️💕 I'm honored you shared it with your viewers! You are an amazing couple with such big hearts and you absolutely deserved that award! Xoxo
I totally started to cry when you guys won! You guys inspire me more than anything (or anyone). You inspire me to make a difference and you inspire me to look at life in a different way. I couldn't thank you enough! Love you with all my heart!!!💖
Tears of pride and joy and just complete admiration for you, as your names were announced over the microphone. I can't even congratulate you enough on your hard work. Your blood, sweat and tears have made more of an impact than anyone could have imagined. Thank you
Congratulations on your award. What you all did was so very selfless. Your selflessness made those other people look in their own heart and hear the call. You all deserve the award. That is so very cool. Thank you for sharing.
Congratulations on the award! It couldn't have gone to a better couple who shows so much love to their viewers. By the way you guys look incredible, and I love Ellie's dress!
I have type 1 diabetes! It's always better to get it checked earlier! Don't worry about people judging you, I didn't get diagnosed until I was 9 and I'm 22 now. It would be much easier if he was diagnosed earlier although I pray he doesn't have it!
I actually work at an infertility center! It is such a blessing & so rewarding being able to work there. I LOVE MY JOB! Being able to help people form their family like yours is one of the best feelings. You guys are AMAZING!!!
They are two of the most moral, grounded, caring humams ever. They are inspiring as they show how to live your life and care and look out for other people in the world. Some of my family don't watch UA-cam but watch their videos as they view them as the most caring normal people and really enjoy watching them grow and inspire many many individuals. Both of them are amazing individuals and they are raising Jackson and Calvin to be the same. You both really deverse this award.
Dear Ellie and Jared, Congratulations! I am watching you (from Belgium) for about 2 years and you inspire me every single day! You are such an example of bravery! Your children, parents and family are also incredible. What I like the most about you is that you're so honest and authentic. Thank you so much for sharing all that with us! and I wish you all the best! Gladys
Beautiful. As someone who struggled with infertility, and now has 2 adopted daughters, one bio son and another one coming in june, I am so amazed by you both and your willingness to help others struggling with infertility. Every story is different, but at the end of the day, we all feel the same pain, and infertility is something that changes your life. Bless you both!
Congratulations to you both! You are so worthy of that award and YOU make me want to be a better person! Thank you for your hard work and dedication to this cause.
Congratulations on the award guys! You deserve this award so much!! We are so blessed to be recipients of an IVF grants and we love you two so much for giving us the opportunity to start our family 😀🙏🏽♥️
Love your hearts 💕 you all are such a sweet loving family! I would have loved to have such a sweet support group after I had my daughter at 24 weeks gestation. Yes she is well and alive (4 yrs old) but we still deal with complications from her early birth that can be very scary at times to this day. I've had people upset with me worrying about her because she is home and well but those that have never experienced what we went through just do not understand. Just a little tip- When Penny runs off with the kids toys maybe command her to "drop it" my dogs respond well to this command when they try to run off with my kids things.
I can honestly say you two have changed my life and I can't even fathom how many peoples lives you have touched. Keep doing what you are doing and never change, just keep growing!
As a type 1 diabetic since 2010, and it's better to get it checked out. I am on my knees praying that he does not have type 1, because it is hard to say the least. I have been discharged from ICU yesterday due to infection.. Loads of love and strength to you.. ❤️
Watching this made me so proud of you guys. I've been watching your guys' videos for about 2 years now, and I'm so glad I clicked on your channel. You guys helped me overcome the struggles I faced, and helped me be grateful for the things I have. So thank you! You are very much appreciated
I just absolutely love you guys. I'm so glad you won that award.. you're beyond deserving. The encouragement alone that you give to others is just beautiful. I'm so glad I found you guys on UA-cam over 4 years ago. This road of infertility is a hard one but having people like you to look to for encouragement and as a hope, helps. We're starting our first IUI after our miscarriage, this month. I know it may sound weird but I enjoy looking back on your old videos.. seeing your positivity through your struggles is helping to remind me to stay positive as well. 💕
My heart is so, so happy watching this! I felt like I've won something too! Struggling with infertility for 2 years now, and when I started watching your vlogs, I felt like it wasn't so bad after all. We are still waiting for our time to come and I am very grateful for people like you, giving hope to people like us. I just hope that the Lord continue to bless you and your family so that you will continue to be a blessing to others.
You deserve that award so much, it's amazing to see a tiny part of this huge event in your lives. You both seriously make me want to be a better person every single day. What a blessing it is to know you both through a screen. 💜
You have given LIFE!! Is there really any better "gift" then that?! It goes beyond the AMAZING 15,000 $ you donated to make someone's dream come true... even though that is incredible and selfless! it seriously blows my heart up!!! Award well deserved! xo
I got teary eyes when you guys were receiving the award! Have been watching you for years and you have made difference in so many people's lives!! Amazing :) Congratulations Ellie and Jared! 😘💕👏👍🏻
You both definitely deserved this award especially showing the light of Christ through your kindness. The impression of your family has never been flashy nor prideful. So I hope as you continue to grow that His light will continue to shine through your family. Continue to be humble and don't stress out about the little things in life! Much love, from the Valenzuela Family
You guys are a huge inspiration to my family and me. My husband had years of infertility and got pregnant with our daughter in 2015 through IUI, and we just got pregnant on our own (like you guys) and I am currently 11 weeks. We are Mormon as well. I love watching your channel and your family!!!
You guys continue to give me hope through my infertility journey. There's so much support on UA-cam! Congratulations on the award, you absolutely deserve it!
Guys, come to Portland ME, and visit Joan and John while you are here, but visit Portland Headlight. It is GORGEOUS. It is one of the most highly photographed lighthouses in the U.S. There are old fort on the grounds where the kids can run and play. There is a playground, lush grass to run around on, and often there are food trucks and one sells AMAZING lobster rolls.
i got a little teary eyed when you guys accepted the award. i cant stress enough how much you two deserve the award! you two have been through so much yet you've stayed so positive and humble through it all. i love your family. congrats! :)
as if I cried as the award was announced, I find myself to be a little baby and always get emotinal watching your beautiful vlogs. love you guys so so so so much all day and each and everyday. please never change and keep making the biggest change in the community. You guys are abasolutely wonderfun.
Is it silly to say, I feel proud of Ellie and Jared? I've been with you since before Jackson! And I cannot believe how the years have flown by and how far you guys have come. Amazing.
You guys...your giving spirits, your tender hearts for those who are suffering through infertility, your generosity--you are providing SUCH a huge impact, and you bless so very many people, more than you'll ever know. Thank you all for all that you do--for sharing your days with us, for sharing your time and your gifts with others, for just being YOU. The Inspiration award was aptly named where you all are concerned, that's for sure!
Check out the Outer Banks of North Carolina! Beautiful lighthouses here, and full of history, the Wright brothers were able to make the first flight in Kitty Hawk.
I was just about to make the same suggestion! All of the lighthouses are interesting, but my favorites are Cape Lookout and Cape Hatteras. I think y'all would enjoy the wild horses too - either at Shackleford or Corolla.
Wow. Just wow. Is it weird to say I am proud of you? I am proud of this whole thing, community, that you have created, with all of us. You have set the standard for common, everyday, humanity and grace so high, and you keep raising the bar. I have been with you since before Jackson was born and this is just... so right. I am in tears writing this, and I cannot think of anyone else more deserving than you, to receive an award like this. Really, truly, amazing. Keep being you and do what you do
It is amazing to me that I have been watching from the very very beginning and to see where you two are today. Thank you endlessly for being an inspiration for us.
if you want lighthouses you should travel to Atlantic Canada. Nova Scotia's Peggy's Cove is so iconic and a huge tourist attraction in rural NS. Prince Edward Island is surrounded by beaches and lighthouse too.
Aliesja Foster That sounds so beautiful and somewhere I'd love to visit! But there's a gorgeous lighthouse where I live in San Diego where E + J could visit too, and then they could go hang gliding near La Jolla. After that, I'm sure there's thousands of people here who'd love to hear Jared play his guitar! But I'd still love to visit your special part of Canada!

I agree
Laura & Jeremy
Laura & Jeremy l agree ❤️🎉
Jared u play guitar in front of us 1,000,000
Laura & Jeremy They are such an amazing family ❤️
hahaha, that haunted faucet owned me! 😂 so amazing watching our kids watch old home videos that started because of youtube. 😊
I'd be replacing that faucet asap lol. Plus, I'd be nervous it'd start while you weren't home & flood your place.
Cullen & Katie I had a faucet like that. It drove me crazy! The only haunted thing about it was when it hit the bottom of the dumpster I threw it in! I just think those faucets have a propensity for turning on by itself when the mechanics of it start to loosen up.
hi hi
Cullen & Katie hey guys i watch your videos, just wanted to know what kind of baby monitor you use.
Vlogging is the best.:)
Jared! You have played in front of all of us! That's over 1 million people! 😉
Kelly Peeples true
Kelly Peeples So True!!
You guys are AMAZING people! Haven't even watched yet but you guys always blow me away with how caring and generous you are!! ❤️
20's 30's and a baby I agree ☝️
Completely agree! The best!
20's 30's and a baby I always see you love you
Totally agree! They are such a remarkable family 😄
20's 30's and a baby I SEE YOU EVERYWHERE!
I cannot believe you guys are in this situation. You guys deserve everything and more for this act of kindness. This is the most beautiful thing I've EVER seen in my entire life. I just want to cry. You guys will be remembered for this beautiful gift, hope you're having a great day ❤👶🏼
I'm glad she didn't let that support group get to her in a negative way, instead she turned it into a positive and made an impact on others in a great way!
Nikki Rose I was once in a support group like that. It defeats the purpose of what a group like that is there for.
I got so teary eyed! This was an incredible vlog. I'm having an egg retrieval next week, what you have done is amazing. You guys are the best!
Sarah P good luck!! Hopefully soon you will have a beautiful baby in your arms!!
Sarah P Good luck! Our prayers are with you! ❤️
Good luck Sarah!!! I hope it goes well!
Thank you so much!!
Awww, good luck!! God is in control!
Oh Ellie & Jared. This brought me to tears! The first video I saw of yours years ago was the phone call when you found out you were pregnant with Jackson.

What a true act of selflessness. To not just stop after you were able to have a baby, but to go out of your way to help someone else also receive such a special gift. You guys inspire me to be a better person every day.
Going to a lighthouse was on my bucket list and so my husband proposed to me on top of one :) Lighthouses are very special to me now.
Congratulations Ellie & Jared on your award! I was crying when the speaker was introducing you guys. You ARE an inspiration to many of us and I am excited that more people were introduced to your giving and compassionate hearts. Thank you for sharing your lives with us.

Seriously....need to stop watching these while I'm doing my makeup!!!! I have goosebumps and tears! Congratulations...very much deserved
Huge Congratulations! This made me cry tears of joy. You two are an amazing couple and inspiration to so many. My son and daughter in law have suffered 4 miscarriages trying to start their family. Prayers for all the couples struggling to start their family. Wanda in PA
Those blue paintings with the silhouettes of the couples were mine 💕❤️️💕 I'm honored you shared it with your viewers! You are an amazing couple with such big hearts and you absolutely deserved that award! Xoxo
I totally started to cry when you guys won! You guys inspire me more than anything (or anyone). You inspire me to make a difference and you inspire me to look at life in a different way. I couldn't thank you enough! Love you with all my heart!!!💖
You guys deserved that! =)
Tears of pride and joy and just complete admiration for you, as your names were announced over the microphone. I can't even congratulate you enough on your hard work. Your blood, sweat and tears have made more of an impact than anyone could have imagined. Thank you
who else saw Tyson and Ashley from Gardner Quad Squad? :) I love those guys
Congrats! Y'all totally deserve the award!
Congratulations on your award. What you all did was so very selfless. Your selflessness made those other people look in their own heart and hear the call. You all deserve the award. That is so very cool. Thank you for sharing.
Congratulations on the award! It couldn't have gone to a better couple who shows so much love to their viewers. By the way you guys look incredible, and I love Ellie's dress!
Congratulations! No one is more deserving of the award. Such beautiful, humble, wonderful, caring and kind people. God continue to bless you! 🤗💚
I have type 1 diabetes! It's always better to get it checked earlier! Don't worry about people judging you, I didn't get diagnosed until I was 9 and I'm 22 now. It would be much easier if he was diagnosed earlier although I pray he doesn't have it!
I actually work at an infertility center! It is such a blessing & so rewarding being able to work there. I LOVE MY JOB! Being able to help people form their family like yours is one of the best feelings. You guys are AMAZING!!!
There is no one i can think that deserved that award more than you guys. Congratulations!
They are two of the most moral, grounded, caring humams ever. They are inspiring as they show how to live your life and care and look out for other people in the world. Some of my family don't watch UA-cam but watch their videos as they view them as the most caring normal people and really enjoy watching them grow and inspire many many individuals. Both of them are amazing individuals and they are raising Jackson and Calvin to be the same. You both really deverse this award.
Dear Ellie and Jared,
Congratulations! I am watching you (from Belgium) for about 2 years and you inspire me every single day! You are such an example of bravery! Your children, parents and family are also incredible. What I like the most about you is that you're so honest and authentic. Thank you so much for sharing all that with us! and I wish you all the best!

Beautiful. As someone who struggled with infertility, and now has 2 adopted daughters, one bio son and another one coming in june, I am so amazed by you both and your willingness to help others struggling with infertility. Every story is different, but at the end of the day, we all feel the same pain, and infertility is something that changes your life. Bless you both!
There is nobody more deserving of this award but Elle and Jared. Congratulations!!!
Congratulations to you both! You are so worthy of that award and YOU make me want to be a better person! Thank you for your hard work and dedication to this cause.
Much Love .. Hope you have A Wonderful Day !
Nico Alcock happy birthday!!
happy birthday 🎁
+Nico Alcock You said that like a few weeks ago. Lol
You guys made it possible for at least 7 precious souls to be born and that fills my heart with so much joy and and love.
Congratulations on the award guys! You deserve this award so much!! We are so blessed to be recipients of an IVF grants and we love you two so much for giving us the opportunity to start our family 😀🙏🏽♥️
Love your hearts 💕 you all are such a sweet loving family! I would have loved to have such a sweet support group after I had my daughter at 24 weeks gestation. Yes she is well and alive (4 yrs old) but we still deal with complications from her early birth that can be very scary at times to this day. I've had people upset with me worrying about her because she is home and well but those that have never experienced what we went through just do not understand.
Just a little tip- When Penny runs off with the kids toys maybe command her to "drop it" my dogs respond well to this command when they try to run off with my kids things.
I can honestly say you two have changed my life and I can't even fathom how many peoples lives you have touched. Keep doing what you are doing and never change, just keep growing!
As a type 1 diabetic since 2010, and it's better to get it checked out. I am on my knees praying that he does not have type 1, because it is hard to say the least. I have been discharged from ICU yesterday due to infection.. Loads of love and strength to you.. ❤️
Watching this made me so proud of you guys. I've been watching your guys' videos for about 2 years now, and I'm so glad I clicked on your channel. You guys helped me overcome the struggles I faced, and helped me be grateful for the things I have. So thank you! You are very much appreciated
I just absolutely love you guys. I'm so glad you won that award.. you're beyond deserving. The encouragement alone that you give to others is just beautiful. I'm so glad I found you guys on UA-cam over 4 years ago. This road of infertility is a hard one but having people like you to look to for encouragement and as a hope, helps. We're starting our first IUI after our miscarriage, this month. I know it may sound weird but I enjoy looking back on your old videos.. seeing your positivity through your struggles is helping to remind me to stay positive as well. 💕
Congratulations Ellie and Jerod. It brought tears just watching you receive the award. You are both great people
My heart is so, so happy watching this! I felt like I've won something too! Struggling with infertility for 2 years now, and when I started watching your vlogs, I felt like it wasn't so bad after all. We are still waiting for our time to come and I am very grateful for people like you, giving hope to people like us. I just hope that the Lord continue to bless you and your family so that you will continue to be a blessing to others.
You deserve that award so much, it's amazing to see a tiny part of this huge event in your lives. You both seriously make me want to be a better person every single day. What a blessing it is to know you both through a screen. 💜
You have given LIFE!! Is there really any better "gift" then that?! It goes beyond the AMAZING 15,000 $ you donated to make someone's dream come true... even though that is incredible and selfless! it seriously blows my heart up!!! Award well deserved! xo
I got teary eyes when you guys were receiving the award! Have been watching you for years and you have made difference in so many people's lives!! Amazing :) Congratulations Ellie and Jared! 😘💕👏👍🏻
You both definitely deserved this award especially showing the light of Christ through your kindness. The impression of your family has never been flashy nor prideful. So I hope as you continue to grow that His light will continue to shine through your family. Continue to be humble and don't stress out about the little things in life! Much love, from the Valenzuela Family
You guys are a huge inspiration to my family and me. My husband had years of infertility and got pregnant with our daughter in 2015 through IUI, and we just got pregnant on our own (like you guys) and I am currently 11 weeks. We are Mormon as well. I love watching your channel and your family!!!
I got goosebumps listening to the award being presenting to you. You guys are truly amazing. Congratulations Ellie and Jared.
You guys continue to give me hope through my infertility journey. There's so much support on UA-cam! Congratulations on the award, you absolutely deserve it!
You people are so sweet what makes it even more beautiful is you are so young what a wonderful example to the youth of today!
Guys, come to Portland ME, and visit Joan and John while you are here, but visit Portland Headlight. It is GORGEOUS. It is one of the most highly photographed lighthouses in the U.S. There are old fort on the grounds where the kids can run and play. There is a playground, lush grass to run around on, and often there are food trucks and one sells AMAZING lobster rolls.

Congratulations Ellie and Jared you deserve this award. You both are amazing people.
Jared's reaction to the faucet is hilarious. Haha. 😂
Is it silly to say, I feel proud of Ellie and Jared? I've been with you since before Jackson! And I cannot believe how the years have flown by and how far you guys have come. Amazing.
You guys...your giving spirits, your tender hearts for those who are suffering through infertility, your generosity--you are providing SUCH a huge impact, and you bless so very many people, more than you'll ever know. Thank you all for all that you do--for sharing your days with us, for sharing your time and your gifts with others, for just being YOU. The Inspiration award was aptly named where you all are concerned, that's for sure!
I volunteer at UIRC and it's so fun to recognize so many people!!! Thanks for sharing this Ellie and Jared!
Check out the Outer Banks of North Carolina! Beautiful lighthouses here, and full of history, the Wright brothers were able to make the first flight in Kitty Hawk.
Liz Gragg, outer banks lighthouses and the area in general is amazing!
Liz Gragg yess!!! i live right outside of wilmington/Topsail. was just about the comment something about the outer banks. much a small world! so cool
Liz Gragg I've lived/live their my whole life I love it here definitely lots of history !!
I was just about to make the same suggestion! All of the lighthouses are interesting, but my favorites are Cape Lookout and Cape Hatteras. I think y'all would enjoy the wild horses too - either at Shackleford or Corolla.
Liz Gragg I definitely agree. I love North Carolina especially Outer Banks. My family and I go every year
... of course the tears start flowing.... You two are incredible people.
Wow. Just wow. Is it weird to say I am proud of you? I am proud of this whole thing, community, that you have created, with all of us. You have set the standard for common, everyday, humanity and grace so high, and you keep raising the bar. I have been with you since before Jackson was born and this is just... so right. I am in tears writing this, and I cannot think of anyone else more deserving than you, to receive an award like this. Really, truly, amazing. Keep being you and do what you do
Congratulations!!! You deserve the recognition. I cried when she announced you and told what you've done!!!
It is amazing to me that I have been watching from the very very beginning and to see where you two are today. Thank you endlessly for being an inspiration for us.
