I love seeing a vlogger with a home and lifestyle more like mine. It seems like everyone has become so unrelatable with these expensive homes, high-end furniture, ridiculous food budgets, etc. It's discouraging for us “regular folks.”
I agree! A lot of creators become unreliable because they start making a lot of money. Not saying they shouldn’t spend it and have nice things. People spend a lot of unnecessary money that makes people with less feel like they are kinda wasteful. I get it! It’s nice to see people more like you. Thank you for watching have a good week.
Oh my goodness! All that breast milk! And here I was driving myself crazy trying to make enough for my baby. That is such a blessing to so many babies and mamas. I am in absolute awe of women that can do this so effortlessly. Thanks for sharing the love.
9 months pregnant and homeless? I am in awe of your strength, God Bless you! I love you keep it real. May life bring you joy and security (something those of us who had food or housing insecurity appreciate).
Thank you may God bless you and your family as well. It was time of testaments for sure we made it through with prayer and talking to other people and working it out with what we had. Scary time glad it is over.
Several years ago I found myself in a situation I never imagined. I was not feeling safe and homeless until I could get into a new living situation. I found out fast how many “friends” were actually not. And out of the woodwork those new friends who were real. Lessons learned. And boundaries in place. Thanks for sharing your story!
Thank you for sharing your testimony. My husband and I went through a hard time like you. No job, no family support, broken down car and a baby on the way. But God got us through it all. I pray that if you get any negative feedback, just ignore it. Your story will encourage more people than you know.😊
Absolutely negative comments won’t stop me from sharing my life or story no worries there. Life is hard and God is faithful throughout it all. Thank you so much for your comment and encouragement! I’m glad you came out of your tough time. It really makes you realize a lot of things when you come out on the other side.
Noelle this is the first time I have ever left a comment on a video. I live half a world away and have a totally different life, low income (always have been) being the main thing we have in common, but your feelings of gratitude for what you have resonates so much and it's so great to find someone creating honest and down to earth content like this. So much love to you and your family and thank you for sharing your life.
Gratitude is something I want to always practice! It’s one of the most important values to have. Looking at your life and rejoice for all of the blessings makes me very happy. Thank you for watching and all your support truly!
I am a grandmother, Retired doula, Lactation consultant, and Women and Infants RN. You are lovely and I enjoy watching your film. Your home is very warm and welcoming. Many blessing to you and your lovely family. !!!!
I loved hearing your story. We had to stay with family a few years ago while my husband looked for a job, and it was probably the worst year of my life. My boys were constantly compared to my SIL’s quiet, sweet nieces, they had to sleep on couches for a lot of that time, and weren’t allowed to do their favorite things (LEGOs and forts) because the messes stressed my SIL out too much. And so much more. We were absolutely thrilled to be able to buy our first house after that, to be in our own space again, and excited to fix it up. We’ve done a ton to it, but six years and another baby later, it’s feeling tight and I’m not as grateful as I should be. So your video about how grateful you are to have a stable home was a great reminder that has really stuck with me since I first watched this video a few weeks ago.
I’m in tears. I have a wonderful support network, both parents, siblings. I don’t know what I would do without their emotional and mental support. I also lean on Jesus, heavily. Praying and praising him is like meditation. God bless you and your little family. I truly love watching your videos. Please keep sharing, you are a true inspiration. Love and hugs!
Hello! I know I couldn’t hold the tears back while recording. Many details I didn’t even touch on very hard to talk about. Having God and a support system is key to life I find. Priceless they truly are. Prayer and worship can give you so much strength and resilience it’s unreal at times. Thank you much for watching and for your kind words. 🙏🏽
Thank you for your realness. All you see on social media nowadays is everyone “perfect lives”. Your channel is so refreshing and your rawness is why you’re one of my favorite UA-camrs. So happy you guys made it through. Always look forward to your content.❤❤
Thank you girl you’re always very pleasant to talk to. Love seeing your beautiful face pop up on any platform. I love your ig! I always just want to share my actual life. What is the point of trying to be this perfect person. That’s always weird to me. We made it through that hard time and are doing much better. Thank you for watching. 🫶🏽🫶🏽
You are such a blessing to your family. They eat such good food. And it is made with love. All the attention, hugs and attention helps them feel loved and feel good abt themselves and that is so helpful to be productive adults.
100% my main and only priority is really my family and how I can best serve and support them. All the hugs and kisses , snuggles very important to children development. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽
Thank you so much for sharing . You are a true inspiration. Yes have no village both parents deceased no family on my own and I get brain dig constantly. I thought it was just me . Thank you❤❤
Nope not just you you’re not alone! I’m so sorry for all your losses. I can’t imagine the challenges you face on a day to day! Just know you’re never alone. Thank you for watching 😘
I loved hearing your testimony. Slowing down and remembering how blessed we are while watching all the consumerism is something I need to do more often. I have healthy babies, food in the refrigerator and a roof over our heads. Thank you
I feel like so many can relate to this story especially right now in these times!! I have a similar story and although we are not “on top” right now, we have a home filled with books and children and Gods provision has been bountiful in every need we’ve had. God bless you, sister!
Amen to your comment. God is amazing and having a lot of money does not mean you’re not rich by any means. Children , love , support , food , a roof over your head makes anyone rich beyond money amount. Thank you so much for watching.
I just found your channel this morning through your latest video, but lemme tell you… I’ve been binging your channel all day!! So thankful for your down to earth content❤❤ Please keep sharing!!🙏🙏
I admire your homemaking skills and tenacity to be a wife and mother while doing it so graciously! I'm on my homemaking journey as well and so glad I found another content creator as yourself to look up to before hubby and I have children. Praying for you and your beautiful family, God bless xx 🤎
Good luck to you on your homemaking journey. It’s great to start before having children. It makes it way easier to get the skills down before hand. I didn’t have that. I learned as I went into motherhood. Thank you so much for watching.
Another UA-cam homemaker here. ❤Just subscribed, those bagels look so good! Despite all the hardships, it’s such a blessing that you and your husband made it through all that together.
It’s a blessing to be able to share my story with people who understand the struggle. I need to come over to your channel and support! Thank you for watching 🤎🫶🏽
@ Yes, it is! I’ve been in similar circumstances in my life, haven’t shared my whole story. The internet is a scary place, but worth it if it makes people feel less alone. 😌
Im six months recent homeless still have a thrive to work great spirit at the library now. So your first video i saw shocked me at thinking your normal until your channel shows your story. Believe me you are awesome and courageous and a mom. Much love. oh and im 33 yrs so i feel you lol
Gently, I say this, to hear family members require money or feeling you are staying too long, for helping out, is hard to hear. Empathy, compassion are not to be seen in these ones. Yes, family should bear one another's burdens in such a dire time. God is faithful, keep relying and trusting in Him, He does not fail us. In Joy
Noelle, I find it appalling that you were forsaken by your own family members! I cannot imagine how that made you feel when your family was at its lowest point. I have no words for this type of abandonment. But…I pray that you do not allow your heart to harden against them. What people seem to forget is that there is a thin line between wealth and destitution. Someday, everyone will need some sort of help. People who are “money conscious”, more concerned with what you own them, than with recognizing the need they could provide, may one day realize they seriously need help. That is when their previous actions will smack them in the face of their own realities. I am a new”subbie” to your channel, I am so proud of your choices and achievements notwithstanding, your honesty. I am a 70 year-old Hispanic mama and the nana of 10 grands. Your mama did a wonderful job of raising a daughter with the heart of Jesus. If she had not, you would be in a different place today, instead in of living the glorious life you have developed for yourself and your family. I am assured that you, in turn, will pass these attributes along to the next generation. By the way, I have also lived a low income life. But, God always provided a way for me to keep everything together and be able to help others when they were in need. It all comes down to prioritizing what is most important. Keep doing things your way. It is your blessing, your comfort, and your peace of mind. Heaven on earth and you have the eyes to recognize it. God bless you and those around you🙏🏽🥰🙏🏽. Nana from Texas💋
Thank you for sharing such a personal devastating time in your life with us. Life is hard and we have to keep going and do our best. You've come a long way and now you have a beautiful family and a beautiful home. So happy for you!!! Money maybe tight but what else can you need when you have your little family !??! Extra cash would be nice of course but hon, you and your husband have created something some will never have. Very proud of where you were and where you are now ❤💕
Raw cookie dough and raw brownie batter🤤😅 Found your channel last night and I love it! I love the realness. I love your voice and your giggle😊 I love the way you film and your voice over. I love the content!! And what a testimony! Thanks for your vulnerability and truth. This is what I need to hear today❤ My new favorite channel😍 Gonna binge watch ya God bless🤍
All the glory to God and family. I’m grateful we came out of those hard times. I’m very happy now and don’t take things for granted! Thank you for watching!
I have been going though a touch time recently in so many ways and I genuinely made me feel so much better when u said things can get better and how much you speak about god. I know I need to lean on him rn thank you so much for inspiring me!
Anyone who sees this pray for me and my family as well cause we are struggling with not having a village because both sides of my husband and I’s family haven’t been respecting boundaries. I’m praying for restoration of our families.
Praying for you and your family mama! Family situations and can tough I know this to well. Asking God to mend relationships for you all. Keep your head up! Never loose hope. I’m so glad my video could bring you any kind of peace. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽🙌🏽
I live In The Bahamas and prices are extremely high on everything since covid , im happy I ran up on your channel. I appreciate you sharing your real life!! God Bless your Family and Home ❤
Loved this REAL video… need more real videos online. Basically inspired me to make bagels for the first time this week. Thanks for sharing your story ❤
So much respect!!! to you and your family. So many things you said in this story is so true especially about family and people who say they are there for you but truly are not. Recently these past few years my eyes have been opened to those people. Thank you for sharing!
Yeah unfortunately a lot of people that you thought would ever be there for you won’t be and that’s a hard truth. That’s why I keep my circle very small these days because the reality of that all. It’s sad. People don’t want to be inconvenienced to help someone they claim to love. Mindfulness always when you think about the company you keep whether family or friends.
Been staying at an extended stay hotel in TN after moving from NY, after being evicted. Weve been here for a month already. Just a week or so after moving here we found out im pregnant.. we will have 3 children, 2 years old and younger come Spring. Our vehicle wont fit all of us. Waiting for financial breakthroughs from The Most High. Grateful that we have somewhere comfortable to live for now although we are technically homeless. And grateful for a full stomach every day, all by The Most Highs grace and mercy
I’m sorry you’re having a harder time right now. I will be praying for your family. Congratulations on your pregnancy. Things will get better keep making your next moves. The Lord will provide. Keep hope!
I just stumbled across your video. Love it already, instant subscribe. FTM of a 5 month old, doing the low income homemaking. The second you said don’t let anyone tell you holding your baby will spoil them, I’m like yep I like her ❤❤ your story is so inspiring. I’m sorry all that happened to you, I can’t imagine. Especially being pregnant. I definitely get the want to nest and can’t because of your living situation, we are moving into our own place next month and I’m so excited and ready!
Yes girl hold that baby! Very good for them and us! We definitely went through a hard time. It made us a lot stronger though. I’m grateful for the experience. All I wanted to do was nest during that time. Congratulations on your new place. May you make it cozy and filled with memories to remember forever. Thank you for your support 🫶🏽
Thanks for posting this, as a mom of two under two who had to go back to work and struggling with feeling secure as a mom. This housing market is crazy smh I’m over rent and America at this point
Yeah I completely understand the frustration. It is not an easy time out here to buy a house or even food at this point. Just know your enough and your children will love you as long as you love them and give them your attention and time. Have a great day.
I loved hearing your story! It’s nice to know the background of a UA-cam content creator. Your videos have such a comforting quality. The bagels, bread, and meatloaf all looked exceptionally delicious!!! ❤❤
I think it’s nice to hear people’s background that you spend time watching for sure. I love making yummy things for the family brings me lots of joy to see them enjoy it. Thank you for watching 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Recently discovered your channel and have been watching all your videos! You’re voice is so calming, I love having it in the background while i’m in the kitchen ☺️💕
Welcome! Thank you for watching my videos! Always feel like my voice is so raspy 😅 I love that you have it playing while In the kitchen. Like we are cooking together.
"The luxury of time" wowwww girl that got me! Its not easy for us either financially right now, but I'm grateful for how God keeps showing up for us in unexpected ways. I try to remind myself how rich I am outside of money and count my blessings that way. So what you said about the luxury of time is so on point and a great reminder! Thank you for sharing your story, God bless you and your family!
Hun you are very rich beyond what money can really give you! Never forget that! Time is such a huge luxury I never want to take for granted. We can’t get it back. Thank you much for watching and more videos to come. God is so good and always there. 🙏🏽
I’m glad you’ve crossed that mountain! And now have a beautiful story to share with others. Wow! The bread, the bagels my goodness! Looks amazing! Your O’Brien’s grocery bags have me thinking of the first city I lived in CA and where I was married & had kids! Love the central valley❤! Love Modesto!
A week after watching this a family member kicked me and my daughter out of their house, not even for money issues but because they didn’t like the fact that I didn’t allow them to chastise my daughter the way they wanted to. I know that God will provide so I’m not stressed but it was a blessing to hear your testimony and gives me another layer of hope so thank you for sharing! There’s power and healing in transparency and vulnerability! In the midst of all of this, God is still GOOD! That is what is keeping me going. I have my moments of stress and doubt but without Jesus I would not be able to weather this storm that’s for certain! ❤
God is good keep your faith. You will be fine don’t give up. I know this time is difficult 😣 keep praying and making the steps to better your situation. Don’t forget about local resources for help.
I agree! Maybe telling my story is what I was meant to do. It felt right so I did! I’m glad I told some of it. Still much more to write on this journey of life to come.
Can’t wait to try some of your recipes! I’ve recently started my homemade bread journey, only made bread, buns, and pizza dough. Excited to try bagels.
Welcome thank you for subbing! I want to full on homestead one day definitely a dream of mine. I’m really glad you are enjoying my channel. Thank you for the support. 🙌🏽😅
I was watching this while doing a workout, and mid sweat it still gave me chills listening to you describe coming home to your new apartment after giving birth to your child! I love your videos and hearing your story. You're doing great ❤
Really that warms my heart. Thank you so much for following along and listening to my story. It was a hard time that I’m grateful for going through and making it out doing better. Thank you again for watching. 🤎🤎🤎
There is nothing worse than having a horrible situation being caused by someone else. It’s awful. When this happens, we have to lean on God. Especially when life doesn’t make sense. But you made it through. Love your home. So cute. Blessings. ♥️
Hey Noelle :) recently started watching your videos and love your content. I can definitely relate to your journey. So, as a Brit, I'll put you out of your misery. Worcestershire sauce is pronouced "wooster sauce". The town of Worcester, where the sauce originated, is pronouced "wooster" and most Brits drop the shire for the sauce as well. You could pronounce it "Woostersheer sauce" but "Wooster" works just as well x
@@noellecasey it's okay 😂 England has loads of places and names where they are pronounced differently than they are spelled. I can definitely understand why it's a tongue twister
Exciting! No matter the number of subs or views I’m thankful to be here and have such a sweet audience. Thank you for watching. Hope you have a good week. 🫶🏽
Aww you’re such a strong mama! Thank you for sharing your story. Similarly, we had to break our lease a month and a half early because we couldn’t pay rent and my husbands job was no longer having the work he needed to get a commission check which we relied on for bills. We had to move in with my family for 4 months into 1 bedroom with our 3 kids. Thankfully this October, we found a rent house that a member of my grandparents church rented to us for a great price and didn’t have to pay an app fee or anything! Blessings.🙏🏻
3,000 views in 18 hours and counting! This proves your story is touching thousands of lives as we speak. I can listen to you speak all day! If you had a podcast, your girl would be tuning in daily! I wish I could show you the impact your videos have had on my life and growth as a stay at home working mom. What a triumphant story you have Noë!! You are such a beautiful spirit! Keep being the blessing you are to your family!! XOXO from Jax, Florida! 🌴
Made me tear up Jax very sweet. All I hope for when making videos I can do something for someone. I would love to visit Florida one day. Thank you for watching as always and your support doesn’t go unnoticed. I appreciate you. 🤎🤎🤎🤎
Thank you for sharing your story, it's not easy to share it with the world. You were blessed and god was by your side to help you. I haven't commented before, but I watch your videos and I adore you and your family.
May Gods Blessings overtake you and your family. Truly God has kept you and better days ahead. God bless✝️🙏🏻❤️. You are an inspiration to others. Never give up. Keep your Faith in God!
Buy a box of clear gloves like the ones in restaurants or school cafeterias you can order a box of 500 or as many as you need. If you use one pair 3 or 4 times a day you probably need to buy in bulk. If you run out of gloves. You can use clean plastic bags or even zip lock bags. Or as a last resort.keep saran wrap in your pantry.
I just found your channel, and this was my first video. Thank you for sharing your journey. Ive been in similar situations over 2 decades my husband and i have been together and often times we had no support other then my parents and it was so hard. Youre doing an incredible job and thank you for blessing us with your journey and reminding us all there will be light again 🩷
Hello welcome! Yeah these kind of situations are hard and not fun. We made it through to the light very grateful everything worked out. Thank you for your sweet comment and for watching 🥰🥰🥰
Wow don’t know how I ended up in your channel but I’m so glad I did, all I can say is wow, your testimony really touched me, thank you for doing what you do is definitely needed, God bless you and your family always, Blessings
I’m really glad to hear that it touched you I hope my story encourages someone to keep going through all the tough stuff. Thank you so much for watching.
I just want to say thank you from one mother who has been through the gamut and let me tell you we could swap some tough stories but I tell you this much faith Uber fear God does hear you and especially a mom I am 55 years old next month and I have raised my son as a single mom low-income and I hear you about scraping go into soup kitchens and standing in lines in the snow God hears you don't ever give up when you feel like you hit the gsounds God will lift you thank you so very much for being real and sharing your story And I'm sure there are many other women that would have stories similar that are silent but thank you for being the voice to all the silent Mother's that couldn't tell their story God bless you and your family from one mum to another God is good
Thank you for watching! God is very good and will lift you in struggle. I thought it was important to tell my story to encourage someone going through a hard time.
I’m actually tearing up at the end of your video because knowing everything you went through and I hear you thinking up way to help your friend that is pregnant and making extra food for your friends while breastfeeding for baby and making extra breast milk for moms… just to know there are others out there who is an angel and I feel like I can relate for you . I’m not working either and money is very tight so I know the feeling of scrambling thinking up ideas on what to do next for different situations. It’s also not easy because you have a family that relies on you. Sorry for everything you guys went through with various landlords and going from place to place. But guess what God is making a way for you and everyone hit rock bottom some time or another. I would love to have you as a friend personally because you are perfect in my eyes. I don’t have any friends at all actually. I’m definitely trying the cookies out. My kids and hubby love chocolate chip cookies. Till next time ❤
Very sweet comment thank you! I love giving to people for sure. I feel God calls us to do so when we can do it. I know money can be tight I love to see how far I can make it spread. I give all the glory to the Lord and how far we have come. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. 🤎
Don’t be afraid to add an Amazon wish list link in the description. Plenty of us viewers would like to send essentials or things y’all want/need! ❤ this is an amazing community please let us help creators like you that deserve it!
Very sweet! Watching my videos and just being here apart of this lovely community is more than enough. Mind blown from all the love and support. Thank you 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Im so happy that things are getting on track for you and your family 😊 you are an amazing mum ❤ sending love and blessing your way for a wonderful future for you and your family.
I’ve had a similar experience with being a renter. I pushed for a lease for two or three years. Finally got it but my place switched ownership also. Unreal that they charged you $500 a month more. Insane. I’m so sorry you had to go thru that and while in your end of pregnancy. Sending you all the best wishes for getting to have the life you hope for. I so so understand. You are young but I’ve been there. So sorry your family wasn’t there for you also. You are smart to get all the help you can get. All in one room in the hotel sounds like the most stressful time ever. There are angels among us and I’m not religious but just kind people do exist out there and family isn’t always those you are blood related to but also those you share resources with. The reality is that people who have resources don’t share and ppl like us end up struggling under water from time to time. Recycling gro store bags is my thing too. You making bagels is hard work. Good job! Snuggling your baby is THE best. Give her a snuggle from me, 58 yr old woman who just loves babies. Wish I lived nearby and could help you with sitting. I miss having babies around. Hang in there and hope your bagels were amazing. Ps you can use oatmeal if you are out of breadcrumbs. My mom used to use them for meatloaf. Also if you have bbq sauce, sometimes that’s good in meatloaf. I do it like you did and add a little ketchup to the mix. I also do a Turkey meatloaf with some parmesean in it and same other ingredients like eggs milk ital seasoning garlic and I see you know the bbq sauce trick also. Lol. You are coming from my same groove in life. Sweet of you to bring your friend some cookies also. Very cool and you are a very kind and giving lady. Your children are lovely and so is your cooking. Yum. Take care of yourself as lovingly as you do your family and friends. Sending a big hug from just out of Seattle. ❤
Hello! Your comment was so heart warming! Thank you for the great read. I love the oat meal trick for meatloaf great to know. Unfortunately family isn’t always there when you need them for sure and it is sad. I love all the baby cuddles. I basically hold her and love on her all day. What a privilege it is to be a mom. Thank you again for watching and your great comment.
I just found your channel and it is such a blessing. My story is similar to yours, I got married young at 25 my husband was 31. I wasn't working then kept getting contract after contract. He was able to maintain a steady job but recently quit. We had times of plenty and little with both of us getting breakthroughs along the way. One thing that kept us is being able to live by my in-laws rent and bill free, through it all. I'm so incredibly grateful and now my husband and I are finally able to have a car for use. We don't have kids yet but keep pushing with the hopes of creating a better future so that we can afford to give our future children the best !
Thank you so much for sharing your story, I’m sending you lots of blessings and positive energy. It’s so comforting knowing you’re going through similar challenges and coming out stronger. Keep believing in the good that’s ahead! 🙏🏽
Just wow thank you sooo much for sharing so many similarities in your story & tonight I was a bit down got My 2 year old & 2 month old down but had to tidy up & do dishes & your video started off with dishes & I put it to play when I started washing them. I was homeless up until the day my 2 month old was born I had just signed the lease & we were about to move in the day my daughter was born so after they released us from the hospital we finally moved in. It was a very terrifying time my mom & sister also turned their backs to us & we had no where to go & also with an eviction now on my record it was very hard to find an apartment . & I also was crying in the office for families in need when they told me they couldn’t extend my 1 month hotel stay I cried & worried what I would do pregnant & with my 2 year old & prayed but was so hurt & worried they not only didn’t extend my stay but kept telling me i had to tell them where I was going or they would have to call child protective services. Thankfully they were never called & we got help in a shelter then everything worked out so quickly in the end within 2 months we got the keys to our new home. However the eviction was 1 year & 3 months before we finally got the keys & we stayed in different places in that time not bad places but felt so rocky. Thank you for sharing started watching your channel when my 2 year old was a few months old. We hadn’t had the eviction yet & was a stay at home mom & I was so grateful like you to bring my newborn into our own home BabyWearing & breastfeeding in peace. God Bless your family 🤍
First of all thank you for sharing your story! This kind of situation is extremely scary specially with children. I’m sorry you had to go through something so similar to what we had to go through. I’m really glad you are doing better. Congratulations on your new life and baby! Thank you for watching 🫶🏽
New subscriber here :) Just wanted to make the suggestion of mixing your meat loaf mixture in your kitchenaid, that way you dont have to touch the meat. Worcestershire is pronounced wooster sheer :) Thank you for sharing your story 💕 You are a sweet friend to make yummy food for a new mom. It is a blessing to all the sweet babies who receive your breast milk, too. You are such a kind and giving woman. God bless ❤
Welcome! Thank you for the meat loaf suggestion that’s a great way never thought of that! I always have a hard time pronouncing that sauce. It’s delicious in food however. I love to give to others when and I’m where I can! Thank you for your comment and for watching! Hope you’re having a good week!
Hello I’m new to your channel and I find your story to be very emotional and also inspiring. I can relate to your story because I went through something similar. And I didn’t have family support either but me and my husband kept our faith in the Lord that we would get through it and we did. We’ve been married 29 yrs and are truly blessed. We don’t have crazy money and still live in an apartment but working towards buying a home. But I get it it is on God’s time not ours and we are ok with that. Still working hard towards our dreams. God bless
Keep working towards your goal of buying a house. It will happen in Gods time. Thank you so much for watching my video. Welcome to the channel and this sweet community! 🫶🏽
We use what we have at hand when proofing pur bread! I’ve seen some use shower caps, which is also cleaver since the edge grip on to the bowl. I use my grandma’s old kitchen linnen towels that she used for her baking over the years. It feels nice and reminds me of her and lovely times spent baking and being in the kitchen with her and grandpa (my grandpa used to bake bread and as a child when they would babysit me some weekends and during weeks in the summer when my parents worked, I would love to just observe my grandparents ”dance” in the kitchen when they would cook food together or grandma would cook food and grandpa would make bread). Lol, I would get slices of apple and set the table. Seeing your way of doing different tasks rminds me of that time.
Tearing up! How beautiful are these memories you have of them! I love how you have kitchen towels from her. I would forever cherish those. Very sweet. I miss my grandma. Incredibly valuable to our lives. The wisdom , Beauty , love they bring to our lives is irreplaceable. Thank you so much for sharing with me. I’m really glad my channel could remind you of them. Have a great week. 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Thanks for sharing, im currently going through a hard time financially and with accomadation changes and uncertainty, so this video came at a perfect time for me ❤
I’m really sorry you’re going through a hard time. It will make you stronger when you come out of it. Keep pushing through. I’m glad to hear that my story can give some kind of peace and encouragement. That was my goal even if it was just one person that I could make feel better. Because I know it’s hard. Thank you for watching ☺️
God blessed you in your time of need so that you can do the same through your channel. I just found you today and I love it, love seeing that sweet baby girl. I'm gonna sub so I can get those yummy recipes. Your story reminded me to not take things for granted ❤❤❤
Im sorry for what you went through. I have not been through something so intense but I did go through a hard patch before having my son. My husbands family asked to move in with us to a new place we were gonna rent. We agreed to help them out. Worst mistake of my life. I cannot forgive them for everything they did to me. I simply cannot. We are on our own now and I can’t be more happy. I thought this day would never come!
I’m sorry to hear that! What a shame on them they were not good to you when you wanted to help. I’m sure you will be blessed for it though. I’m glad you are happier now. Thank you for watching! 🥰
I'm in the season of life and the stress took it out of me. I'm trying to keep my eyes on the Lord!! However it's hard in ur darkest times. I don't know if I would of been able to have gone Thur it! I'm a big big I need to be alone and everyone away from me when I'm stressed or going Thur it !! Thank u for this tho think I needed this today !! Homemaking use to give me peace but now I have to find it in the everyday.. Just have to keep my eyes on the Lord!! Again thank you!!!
Keep praying girl it will get better and you will pull through. It’s hard I know. I understand needing alone time when life is stressful. Hang in there! Thank you for watching 😘
I highly want you show us how to organize \ put your kids clothes I’m really struggling my kids don’t have closet in their room so I put their clothes in ours closet I m really love how you manage your home and I’m learning from you 😊
Well to be honest I do a no fold system now for the kids where I let them fold if they want to and have them put their clothes in their dresser space we all share. Makes life way easier when you learn to let go of some stuff as a mom that’s not actually important. Lighting the load feels really good!
Because I find my kids unfold all the clothes anyway to play dress up or get dressed for the day so why fold them to begin with it took me years to come to this realization and I wish I did it way sooner. I do the same for the babies clothes.
I love seeing a vlogger with a home and lifestyle more like mine. It seems like everyone has become so unrelatable with these expensive homes, high-end furniture, ridiculous food budgets, etc. It's discouraging for us “regular folks.”
I agree! A lot of creators become unreliable because they start making a lot of money. Not saying they shouldn’t spend it and have nice things. People spend a lot of unnecessary money that makes people with less feel like they are kinda wasteful. I get it! It’s nice to see people more like you. Thank you for watching have a good week.
Yes!
Totally agree.
So true, it is sad that some value the materialism and lack of substance seen in media these days.
I love she's just like a normal , everyday person . SHE'S REAL !!!!
Oh my goodness! All that breast milk! And here I was driving myself crazy trying to make enough for my baby. That is such a blessing to so many babies and mamas. I am in absolute awe of women that can do this so effortlessly. Thanks for sharing the love.
A lot of breast milk! I’m honored to be able to donate it all to families in need! 🥰
9 months pregnant and homeless? I am in awe of your strength, God Bless you! I love you keep it real. May life bring you joy and security (something those of us who had food or housing insecurity appreciate).
Thank you may God bless you and your family as well. It was time of testaments for sure we made it through with prayer and talking to other people and working it out with what we had. Scary time glad it is over.
Several years ago I found myself in a situation I never imagined. I was not feeling safe and homeless until I could get into a new living situation. I found out fast how many “friends” were actually not. And out of the woodwork those new friends who were real. Lessons learned. And boundaries in place. Thanks for sharing your story!
Life struggles definitely show you who your people actually are most of the time you’re not related to them. Unfortunately
gurl hearing your testimony, you’re so RICH in life!!! your marriage, your babies, your home, the food you can make! such a blessing 💛
I’m blessed beyond measure! Who needs a ton of money it’s all about the priceless goods that make life any kind of special. 😊
Most definitely...that's what I'll definitely call *"Rich"* 🤗🥹🥰 Beautiful
Thank you for sharing your testimony. My husband and I went through a hard time like you. No job, no family support, broken down car and a baby on the way. But God got us through it all. I pray that if you get any negative feedback, just ignore it. Your story will encourage more people than you know.😊
Absolutely negative comments won’t stop me from sharing my life or story no worries there. Life is hard and God is faithful throughout it all. Thank you so much for your comment and encouragement! I’m glad you came out of your tough time. It really makes you realize a lot of things when you come out on the other side.
Good for you! Lean into Jesus. He is faithful and strong.
Noelle this is the first time I have ever left a comment on a video. I live half a world away and have a totally different life, low income (always have been) being the main thing we have in common, but your feelings of gratitude for what you have resonates so much and it's so great to find someone creating honest and down to earth content like this. So much love to you and your family and thank you for sharing your life.
Gratitude is something I want to always practice! It’s one of the most important values to have. Looking at your life and rejoice for all of the blessings makes me very happy. Thank you for watching and all your support truly!
I am a grandmother, Retired doula, Lactation consultant, and Women and Infants RN. You are lovely and I enjoy watching your film. Your home is very warm and welcoming. Many blessing to you and your lovely family. !!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot to me!
I loved hearing your story. We had to stay with family a few years ago while my husband looked for a job, and it was probably the worst year of my life. My boys were constantly compared to my SIL’s quiet, sweet nieces, they had to sleep on couches for a lot of that time, and weren’t allowed to do their favorite things (LEGOs and forts) because the messes stressed my SIL out too much. And so much more. We were absolutely thrilled to be able to buy our first house after that, to be in our own space again, and excited to fix it up. We’ve done a ton to it, but six years and another baby later, it’s feeling tight and I’m not as grateful as I should be. So your video about how grateful you are to have a stable home was a great reminder that has really stuck with me since I first watched this video a few weeks ago.
It is truly a blessing to have a stable home, thank you for sharing your story!
I’m in tears. I have a wonderful support network, both parents, siblings. I don’t know what I would do without their emotional and mental support. I also lean on Jesus, heavily. Praying and praising him is like meditation. God bless you and your little family. I truly love watching your videos. Please keep sharing, you are a true inspiration. Love and hugs!
Hello! I know I couldn’t hold the tears back while recording. Many details I didn’t even touch on very hard to talk about.
Having God and a support system is key to life I find. Priceless they truly are. Prayer and worship can give you so much strength and resilience it’s unreal at times. Thank you much for watching and for your kind words. 🙏🏽
Proverbs 31 woman indeed! May blessing continue to chase you down 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
What a compliment thank you. Working towards be more of a proverbs 31 women for sure. Appreciate the support. Have a good day.
Thank you for your realness. All you see on social media nowadays is everyone “perfect lives”. Your channel is so refreshing and your rawness is why you’re one of my favorite UA-camrs. So happy you guys made it through. Always look forward to your content.❤❤
Thank you girl you’re always very pleasant to talk to. Love seeing your beautiful face pop up on any platform. I love your ig! I always just want to share my actual life. What is the point of trying to be this perfect person. That’s always weird to me. We made it through that hard time and are doing much better. Thank you for watching. 🫶🏽🫶🏽
You are such a blessing to your family. They eat such good food. And it is made with love. All the attention, hugs and attention helps them feel loved and feel good abt themselves and that is so helpful to be productive adults.
100% my main and only priority is really my family and how I can best serve and support them. All the hugs and kisses , snuggles very important to children development. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽
Thank you so much for sharing . You are a true inspiration. Yes have no village both parents deceased no family on my own and I get brain dig constantly. I thought it was just me . Thank you❤❤
Nope not just you you’re not alone! I’m so sorry for all your losses. I can’t imagine the challenges you face on a day to day! Just know you’re never alone. Thank you for watching 😘
I'm so proud of you. You are a warrior and thankful for your testimony. ❤
Thank you so much for watching and your kind words. 🤎
I love your story, I have section 8 and im happy that now we live unashamed about accepting assistance
Don’t be ashamed for receiving help. Always do what’s best for your family thank you for watching! 🤎🤎🤎
Hey Noelle you're living proof that you don't need to be rich to be happy. I'm so with you. Love watching your videos.
I’m so glad you feel that way! Thank you for watching!
I loved hearing your testimony. Slowing down and remembering how blessed we are while watching all the consumerism is something I need to do more often. I have healthy babies, food in the refrigerator and a roof over our heads. Thank you
I feel like so many can relate to this story especially right now in these times!! I have a similar story and although we are not “on top” right now, we have a home filled with books and children and Gods provision has been bountiful in every need we’ve had. God bless you, sister!
Amen to your comment. God is amazing and having a lot of money does not mean you’re not rich by any means. Children , love , support , food , a roof over your head makes anyone rich beyond money amount. Thank you so much for watching.
I just found your channel this morning through your latest video, but lemme tell you… I’ve been binging your channel all day!! So thankful for your down to earth content❤❤ Please keep sharing!!🙏🙏
I’m thankful for you supporting and watching! I’m glad you love it! 🫶🏽
I admire your homemaking skills and tenacity to be a wife and mother while doing it so graciously! I'm on my homemaking journey as well and so glad I found another content creator as yourself to look up to before hubby and I have children. Praying for you and your beautiful family, God bless xx 🤎
Good luck to you on your homemaking journey. It’s great to start before having children. It makes it way easier to get the skills down before hand. I didn’t have that. I learned as I went into motherhood. Thank you so much for watching.
@@noellecasey thank you 🫶🏼
Another UA-cam homemaker here. ❤Just subscribed, those bagels look so good! Despite all the hardships, it’s such a blessing that you and your husband made it through all that together.
It’s a blessing to be able to share my story with people who understand the struggle. I need to come over to your channel and support! Thank you for watching 🤎🫶🏽
@ Yes, it is! I’ve been in similar circumstances in my life, haven’t shared my whole story. The internet is a scary place, but worth it if it makes people feel less alone. 😌
Im six months recent homeless still have a thrive to work great spirit at the library now. So your first video i saw shocked me at thinking your normal until your channel shows your story. Believe me you are awesome and courageous and a mom. Much love. oh and im 33 yrs so i feel you lol
I am so sorry you are going through this but I know you will get through it! It takes so much strength to keep going. Never give up 🫶🏽🤎
Gently, I say this, to hear family members require money or feeling you are staying too long, for helping out, is hard to hear. Empathy, compassion are not to be seen in these ones. Yes, family should bear one another's burdens in such a dire time. God is faithful, keep relying and trusting in Him, He does not fail us. In Joy
Yeah I agree completely! God is faithful and will pull you through hard times! Thank you much for watching 🙏🏽🤎
N
Noelle, I find it appalling that you were forsaken by your own family members! I cannot imagine how that made you feel when your family was at its lowest point. I have no words for this type of abandonment. But…I pray that you do not allow your heart to harden against them. What people seem to forget is that there is a thin line between wealth and destitution. Someday, everyone will need some sort of help. People who are “money conscious”, more concerned with what you own them, than with recognizing the need they could provide, may one day realize they seriously need help. That is when their previous actions will smack them in the face of their own realities. I am a new”subbie” to your channel, I am so proud of your choices and achievements notwithstanding, your honesty. I am a 70 year-old Hispanic mama and the nana of 10 grands. Your mama did a wonderful job of raising a daughter with the heart of Jesus. If she had not, you would be in a different place today, instead in of living the glorious life you have developed for yourself and your family. I am assured that you, in turn, will pass these attributes along to the next generation. By the way, I have also lived a low income life. But, God always provided a way for me to keep everything together and be able to help others when they were in need. It all comes down to prioritizing what is most important. Keep doing things your way. It is your blessing, your comfort, and your peace of mind. Heaven on earth and you have the eyes to recognize it. God bless you and those around you🙏🏽🥰🙏🏽. Nana from Texas💋
We overcome by our testimonies. Your channel will open many doors. It has bless me tremendously. Blessings 🙏🌹💖
Very glad to hear my channel brought you any kind of blessings that’s amazing. Thank you for watching 🙏🏽
Thank you for sharing such a personal devastating time in your life with us. Life is hard and we have to keep going and do our best. You've come a long way and now you have a beautiful family and a beautiful home. So happy for you!!! Money maybe tight but what else can you need when you have your little family !??! Extra cash would be nice of course but hon, you and your husband have created something some will never have. Very proud of where you were and where you are now ❤💕

Love your voice❤ ,making me take deeply pondering things around.
I appreciate your kind words. 🙏🏽
I have been going though a touch time recently in so many ways and I genuinely made me feel so much better when u said things can get better and how much you speak about god. I know I need to lean on him rn thank you so much for inspiring me!
Tough* ^
Anyone who sees this pray for me and my family as well cause we are struggling with not having a village because both sides of my husband and I’s family haven’t been respecting boundaries. I’m praying for restoration of our families.
Praying for you and your family mama! Family situations and can tough I know this to well. Asking God to mend relationships for you all. Keep your head up! Never loose hope. I’m so glad my video could bring you any kind of peace. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽🙌🏽
I live In The Bahamas and prices are extremely high on everything since covid , im happy I ran up on your channel. I appreciate you sharing your real life!! God Bless your Family and Home ❤
Ohh the Bahamas sounds beautiful. Everything is very expensive since 2020 happened for sure! Thank you for watching my video! 🥰
Loved this REAL video… need more real videos online. Basically inspired me to make bagels for the first time this week. Thanks for sharing your story ❤
That is awesome! I'm so happy I could inspire you to try something new! That’s what my channel is all about!
Proud of you & Your Family!! ThanGod we do not look like what we have been through!!!🖤💛
So much respect!!! to you and your family. So many things you said in this story is so true especially about family and people who say they are there for you but truly are not. Recently these past few years my eyes have been opened to those people. Thank you for sharing!
Yeah unfortunately a lot of people that you thought would ever be there for you won’t be and that’s a hard truth. That’s why I keep my circle very small these days because the reality of that all. It’s sad. People don’t want to be inconvenienced to help someone they claim to love. Mindfulness always when you think about the company you keep whether family or friends.
Very pretty young wise woman. God continue to bless all of you.
Very sweet thank you so much!
You give me so much inspiration Noelle!!!! I'd love to make breads like you !
I love to make all the breads obviously lol so fun lots more to share in the new year. Thank you for watching and enjoying!
You are a good person and friend also a Neighbor, you a blessing to someone in your neighborhood
Very sweet thank you for watching!
Bless you for sharing your story. The bagels looked delicious and YES, eat the cookie dough.
Thank you the bagels are great and yes eat the cookie dough lol
That's what i get for commenting before the video comes to an end. ALL the food looks delicious!!
Thank you! I love to make all the food!
Been staying at an extended stay hotel in TN after moving from NY, after being evicted. Weve been here for a month already. Just a week or so after moving here we found out im pregnant.. we will have 3 children, 2 years old and younger come Spring. Our vehicle wont fit all of us. Waiting for financial breakthroughs from The Most High. Grateful that we have somewhere comfortable to live for now although we are technically homeless. And grateful for a full stomach every day, all by The Most Highs grace and mercy
I’m sorry you’re having a harder time right now. I will be praying for your family. Congratulations on your pregnancy. Things will get better keep making your next moves. The Lord will provide. Keep hope!
@@noellecasey thank you ❤️ and yes He will
Your story is beautiful. Hardships and all is what makes us - thank you for sharing:)
I completely agree what a good way to put it! Thank you for listening and watching! 🫶🏽
I just stumbled across your video. Love it already, instant subscribe. FTM of a 5 month old, doing the low income homemaking. The second you said don’t let anyone tell you holding your baby will spoil them, I’m like yep I like her ❤❤ your story is so inspiring. I’m sorry all that happened to you, I can’t imagine. Especially being pregnant. I definitely get the want to nest and can’t because of your living situation, we are moving into our own place next month and I’m so excited and ready!
Yes girl hold that baby! Very good for them and us! We definitely went through a hard time. It made us a lot stronger though. I’m grateful for the experience. All I wanted to do was nest during that time. Congratulations on your new place. May you make it cozy and filled with memories to remember forever. Thank you for your support 🫶🏽
@@noellecasey ❤️❤️❤️
26:01 luxury of time, Amen.
Time is the biggest luxury. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽
Thanks for posting this, as a mom of two under two who had to go back to work and struggling with feeling secure as a mom. This housing market is crazy smh I’m over rent and America at this point
You are in my prayers. Jesus will bless you for your hard work. ❤
Yeah I completely understand the frustration. It is not an easy time out here to buy a house or even food at this point. Just know your enough and your children will love you as long as you love them and give them your attention and time. Have a great day.
I loved hearing your story! It’s nice to know the background of a UA-cam content creator. Your videos have such a comforting quality. The bagels, bread, and meatloaf all looked exceptionally delicious!!! ❤❤
I think it’s nice to hear people’s background that you spend time watching for sure. I love making yummy things for the family brings me lots of joy to see them enjoy it. Thank you for watching 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Recently discovered your channel and have been watching all your videos! You’re voice is so calming, I love having it in the background while i’m in the kitchen ☺️💕
Welcome! Thank you for watching my videos! Always feel like my voice is so raspy 😅 I love that you have it playing while In the kitchen. Like we are cooking together.
"The luxury of time" wowwww girl that got me! Its not easy for us either financially right now, but I'm grateful for how God keeps showing up for us in unexpected ways. I try to remind myself how rich I am outside of money and count my blessings that way. So what you said about the luxury of time is so on point and a great reminder! Thank you for sharing your story, God bless you and your family!
Hun you are very rich beyond what money can really give you! Never forget that! Time is such a huge luxury I never want to take for granted. We can’t get it back. Thank you much for watching and more videos to come. God is so good and always there. 🙏🏽
I’m glad you’ve crossed that mountain! And now have a beautiful story to share with others. Wow! The bread, the bagels my goodness! Looks amazing!
Your O’Brien’s grocery bags have me thinking of the first city I lived in CA and where I was married & had kids! Love the central valley❤! Love Modesto!
Thank you love my baked goods for sure my family enjoys them very much!
A week after watching this a family member kicked me and my daughter out of their house, not even for money issues but because they didn’t like the fact that I didn’t allow them to chastise my daughter the way they wanted to. I know that God will provide so I’m not stressed but it was a blessing to hear your testimony and gives me another layer of hope so thank you for sharing! There’s power and healing in transparency and vulnerability! In the midst of all of this, God is still GOOD! That is what is keeping me going. I have my moments of stress and doubt but without Jesus I would not be able to weather this storm that’s for certain! ❤
God is good keep your faith. You will be fine don’t give up. I know this time is difficult 😣 keep praying and making the steps to better your situation. Don’t forget about local resources for help.
My life is what it is today only because of god. I was homeless a home with no parents and money. Today I am blessed.
God is good yes he is. I’m really glad you made it through thank you for sharing! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
I like how you have your home 🏠 Decorate, it’s decorate like a farmhouse. That is so cool.
Thank you home is the best place.
Your test has become your testimony to inspire others. Thank you for sharing your story
I agree! Maybe telling my story is what I was meant to do. It felt right so I did! I’m glad I told some of it. Still much more to write on this journey of life to come.
So amazing!!!! May God continue to bless you & your family!! ❤
Thank you so much may God send blessings your way as well!
Can’t wait to try some of your recipes! I’ve recently started my homemade bread journey, only made bread, buns, and pizza dough. Excited to try bagels.
Bagels are so yum! You have a good start so far with the goods you have made. Keep going I enjoy making bread so much. Thank you for watching 🥯 🥖
Hi Noelle, new subscriber here.. SAHM and homesteader outside Boston. Your channel is great and this video is really inspiring 😊
Welcome thank you for subbing! I want to full on homestead one day definitely a dream of mine. I’m really glad you are enjoying my channel. Thank you for the support. 🙌🏽😅
i’m new to your channel i’m a single mom 👩🏾 and my kids are one grown and a 15 year old. i love home making content . i love 🧡 your cooking 🥘 recipes.
I love home making content as well. Love seeing how other women take care of their home. I’m glad you enjoy the recipes. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽
I was watching this while doing a workout, and mid sweat it still gave me chills listening to you describe coming home to your new apartment after giving birth to your child! I love your videos and hearing your story. You're doing great ❤
Really that warms my heart. Thank you so much for following along and listening to my story. It was a hard time that I’m grateful for going through and making it out doing better. Thank you again for watching. 🤎🤎🤎
There is nothing worse than having a horrible situation being caused by someone else. It’s awful. When this happens, we have to lean on God. Especially when life doesn’t make sense. But you made it through.
Love your home. So cute. Blessings. ♥️
Leaning on God and family maybe friends is the only way to get through the hard times! Thank you so much for watching 🫶🏽
Hey Noelle :) recently started watching your videos and love your content. I can definitely relate to your journey.
So, as a Brit, I'll put you out of your misery. Worcestershire sauce is pronouced "wooster sauce". The town of Worcester, where the sauce originated, is pronouced "wooster" and most Brits drop the shire for the sauce as well. You could pronounce it "Woostersheer sauce" but "Wooster" works just as well x
Thank you so much for letting me know!!! It’s so hard to pronounce for me! 🤣
@@noellecasey it's okay 😂 England has loads of places and names where they are pronounced differently than they are spelled. I can definitely understand why it's a tongue twister
I’m so happy you’re gaining subscribers you totally deserve it! ❤
Exciting! No matter the number of subs or views I’m thankful to be here and have such a sweet audience. Thank you for watching. Hope you have a good week. 🫶🏽
Aww you’re such a strong mama! Thank you for sharing your story. Similarly, we had to break our lease a month and a half early because we couldn’t pay rent and my husbands job was no longer having the work he needed to get a commission check which we relied on for bills. We had to move in with my family for 4 months into 1 bedroom with our 3 kids. Thankfully this October, we found a rent house that a member of my grandparents church rented to us for a great price and didn’t have to pay an app fee or anything! Blessings.🙏🏻
I aspire to get to the homemaking level you are on! ❤
3,000 views in 18 hours and counting! This proves your story is touching thousands of lives as we speak. I can listen to you speak all day! If you had a podcast, your girl would be tuning in daily! I wish I could show you the impact your videos have had on my life and growth as a stay at home working mom. What a triumphant story you have Noë!! You are such a beautiful spirit! Keep being the blessing you are to your family!! XOXO from Jax, Florida! 🌴
Made me tear up Jax very sweet. All I hope for when making videos I can do something for someone. I would love to visit Florida one day. Thank you for watching as always and your support doesn’t go unnoticed. I appreciate you. 🤎🤎🤎🤎
Thank you for sharing your story, it's not easy to share it with the world. You were blessed and god was by your side to help you. I haven't commented before, but I watch your videos and I adore you and your family.

Buy a box of clear gloves like the ones in restaurants or school cafeterias you can order a box of 500 or as many as you need.
If you use one pair 3 or 4 times a day you probably need to buy in bulk.
If you run out of gloves. You can use clean plastic bags or even zip lock bags.
Or as a last resort.keep saran wrap in your pantry.
so happy you guys made it thru the dark times...prayin 4ya!!!
Thank you me too! God is good! 🫶🏽
I just found your channel, and this was my first video. Thank you for sharing your journey. Ive been in similar situations over 2 decades my husband and i have been together and often times we had no support other then my parents and it was so hard.
Youre doing an incredible job and thank you for blessing us with your journey and reminding us all there will be light again 🩷
Hello welcome! Yeah these kind of situations are hard and not fun. We made it through to the light very grateful everything worked out. Thank you for your sweet comment and for watching 🥰🥰🥰
You are so so strong
Yes he truly has been amazing I’m so grateful thank you for watching 🫶🏽
Wow don’t know how I ended up in your channel but I’m so glad I did, all I can say is wow, your testimony really touched me, thank you for doing what you do is definitely needed, God bless you and your family always, Blessings
I’m really glad to hear that it touched you I hope my story encourages someone to keep going through all the tough stuff. Thank you so much for watching.
I just want to say thank you from one mother who has been through the gamut and let me tell you we could swap some tough stories but I tell you this much faith Uber fear God does hear you and especially a mom I am 55 years old next month and I have raised my son as a single mom low-income and I hear you about scraping go into soup kitchens and standing in lines in the snow God hears you don't ever give up when you feel like you hit the gsounds God will lift you thank you so very much for being real and sharing your story And I'm sure there are many other women that would have stories similar that are silent but thank you for being the voice to all the silent Mother's that couldn't tell their story God bless you and your family from one mum to another God is good
Thank you for watching! God is very good and will lift you in struggle. I thought it was important to tell my story to encourage someone going through a hard time.
I loved this story, so glad all is well now. I’m glad you started this UA-cam channel. It’s always a joy to see you and your family thriving
😃👍🏽✌️❤️
I love this channel and community! It’s a great outlet for me! Thank you for watching and supporting me always! 🫶🏽🫶🏽
I’m actually tearing up at the end of your video because knowing everything you went through and I hear you thinking up way to help your friend that is pregnant and making extra food for your friends while breastfeeding for baby and making extra breast milk for moms… just to know there are others out there who is an angel and I feel like I can relate for you . I’m not working either and money is very tight so I know the feeling of scrambling thinking up ideas on what to do next for different situations. It’s also not easy because you have a family that relies on you. Sorry for everything you guys went through with various landlords and going from place to place. But guess what God is making a way for you and everyone hit rock bottom some time or another. I would love to have you as a friend personally because you are perfect in my eyes. I don’t have any friends at all actually. I’m definitely trying the cookies out. My kids and hubby love chocolate chip cookies. Till next time ❤
Very sweet comment thank you! I love giving to people for sure. I feel God calls us to do so when we can do it. I know money can be tight I love to see how far I can make it spread. I give all the glory to the Lord and how far we have come. Thank you for watching and supporting my channel. 🤎
Hello Noelle thank you for sharing your story! Love all your videos ❤
Thank you so much for watching and supporting my channel girly! 🤎🤎
Don’t be afraid to add an Amazon wish list link in the description. Plenty of us viewers would like to send essentials or things y’all want/need! ❤ this is an amazing community please let us help creators like you that deserve it!
Very sweet! Watching my videos and just being here apart of this lovely community is more than enough. Mind blown from all the love and support. Thank you 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Very kind of you to donate the excess breast milk to the babies who need it!
I feel honored to be able to donate my milk it’s great
Im so happy that things are getting on track for you and your family 😊 you are an amazing mum ❤
sending love and blessing your way for a wonderful future for you and your family.
Me too! I’m grateful that we made it through a really rough patch. Thank you for your kind words and for watching 🤎🤎
I’ve had a similar experience with being a renter. I pushed for a lease for two or three years. Finally got it but my place switched ownership also. Unreal that they charged you $500 a month more. Insane.
I’m so sorry you had to go thru that and while in your end of pregnancy. Sending you all the best wishes for getting to have the life you hope for. I so so understand. You are young but I’ve been there. So sorry your family wasn’t there for you also.
You are smart to get all the help you can get. All in one room in the hotel sounds like the most stressful time ever. There are angels among us and I’m not religious but just kind people do exist out there and family isn’t always those you are blood related to but also those you share resources with. The reality is that people who have resources don’t share and ppl like us end up struggling under water from time to time. Recycling gro store bags is my thing too. You making bagels is hard work. Good job! Snuggling your baby is THE best. Give her a snuggle from me, 58 yr old woman who just loves babies. Wish I lived nearby and could help you with sitting. I miss having babies around. Hang in there and hope your bagels were amazing.
Ps you can use oatmeal if you are out of breadcrumbs. My mom used to use them for meatloaf. Also if you have bbq sauce, sometimes that’s good in meatloaf. I do it like you did and add a little ketchup to the mix. I also do a Turkey meatloaf with some parmesean in it and same other ingredients like eggs milk ital seasoning garlic and I see you know the bbq sauce trick also. Lol. You are coming from my same groove in life. Sweet of you to bring your friend some cookies also. Very cool and you are a very kind and giving lady. Your children are lovely and so is your cooking. Yum. Take care of yourself as lovingly as you do your family and friends. Sending a big hug from just out of Seattle. ❤
Hello! Your comment was so heart warming! Thank you for the great read. I love the oat meal trick for meatloaf great to know. Unfortunately family isn’t always there when you need them for sure and it is sad.
I love all the baby cuddles. I basically hold her and love on her all day. What a privilege it is to be a mom. Thank you again for watching and your great comment.
Proud of you & Your Beautiful Family!! Thank God we do not look like what we have been through!!! Thank for the recipes 🖤💛
God is so very good! Thank you for watching 🤎🤎
So relatable. Thanks for another great video!
Of course I’m glad you like the videos more to come.
Love ❤️ your story ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ enjoyed myself and loved go see you cook 😋😋😋😋😋
I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!
I just found your channel and it is such a blessing. My story is similar to yours, I got married young at 25 my husband was 31. I wasn't working then kept getting contract after contract. He was able to maintain a steady job but recently quit. We had times of plenty and little with both of us getting breakthroughs along the way. One thing that kept us is being able to live by my in-laws rent and bill free, through it all. I'm so incredibly grateful and now my husband and I are finally able to have a car for use. We don't have kids yet but keep pushing with the hopes of creating a better future so that we can afford to give our future children the best !
Thank you so much for sharing your story, I’m sending you lots of blessings and positive energy. It’s so comforting knowing you’re going through similar challenges and coming out stronger. Keep believing in the good that’s ahead! 🙏🏽
Just wow thank you sooo much for sharing so many similarities in your story & tonight I was a bit down got My 2 year old & 2 month old down but had to tidy up & do dishes & your video started off with dishes & I put it to play when I started washing them. I was homeless up until the day my 2 month old was born I had just signed the lease & we were about to move in the day my daughter was born so after they released us from the hospital we finally moved in. It was a very terrifying time my mom & sister also turned their backs to us & we had no where to go & also with an eviction now on my record it was very hard to find an apartment . & I also was crying in the office for families in need when they told me they couldn’t extend my 1 month hotel stay I cried & worried what I would do pregnant & with my 2 year old & prayed but was so hurt & worried they not only didn’t extend my stay but kept telling me i had to tell them where I was going or they would have to call child protective services. Thankfully they were never called & we got help in a shelter then everything worked out so quickly in the end within 2 months we got the keys to our new home. However the eviction was 1 year & 3 months before we finally got the keys & we stayed in different places in that time not bad places but felt so rocky. Thank you for sharing started watching your channel when my 2 year old was a few months old. We hadn’t had the eviction yet & was a stay at home mom & I was so grateful like you to bring my newborn into our own home BabyWearing & breastfeeding in peace. God Bless your family 🤍
First of all thank you for sharing your story! This kind of situation is extremely scary specially with children. I’m sorry you had to go through something so similar to what we had to go through. I’m really glad you are doing better. Congratulations on your new life and baby! Thank you for watching 🫶🏽
I LOVE your videos and your message so much. (I hope you do a cookbook I'd snatch it right up ❤❤❤)
Aww thank you I would love to make one
Sleep deprived, affects memory. And ❤️ your taking care of many humans.
Yes very true! When you have new babies for the first year at least you’re sleep deprived! Thank you for watching 😊

Just wanted to make the suggestion of mixing your meat loaf mixture in your kitchenaid, that way you dont have to touch the meat.
Worcestershire is pronounced wooster sheer :)
Thank you for sharing your story 💕
You are a sweet friend to make yummy food for a new mom.
It is a blessing to all the sweet babies who receive your breast milk, too.
You are such a kind and giving woman. God bless ❤
Welcome! Thank you for the meat loaf suggestion that’s a great way never thought of that! I always have a hard time pronouncing that sauce. It’s delicious in food however. I love to give to others when and I’m where I can! Thank you for your comment and for watching! Hope you’re having a good week!
Hello I’m new to your channel and I find your story to be very emotional and also inspiring. I can relate to your story because I went through something similar. And I didn’t have family support either but me and my husband kept our faith in the Lord that we would get through it and we did. We’ve been married 29 yrs and are truly blessed. We don’t have crazy money and still live in an apartment but working towards buying a home. But I get it it is on God’s time not ours and we are ok with that. Still working hard towards our dreams. God bless
Keep working towards your goal of buying a house. It will happen in Gods time. Thank you so much for watching my video. Welcome to the channel and this sweet community! 🫶🏽
We use what we have at hand when proofing pur bread! I’ve seen some use shower caps, which is also cleaver since the edge grip on to the bowl.
I use my grandma’s old kitchen linnen towels that she used for her baking over the years. It feels nice and reminds me of her and lovely times spent baking and being in the kitchen with her and grandpa (my grandpa used to bake bread and as a child when they would babysit me some weekends and during weeks in the summer when my parents worked, I would love to just observe my grandparents ”dance” in the kitchen when they would cook food together or grandma would cook food and grandpa would make bread). Lol, I would get slices of apple and set the table. Seeing your way of doing different tasks rminds me of that time.
Tearing up! How beautiful are these memories you have of them! I love how you have kitchen towels from her. I would forever cherish those. Very sweet. I miss my grandma. Incredibly valuable to our lives. The wisdom , Beauty , love they bring to our lives is irreplaceable. Thank you so much for sharing with me. I’m really glad my channel could remind you of them. Have a great week. 🫶🏽🫶🏽
Thanks for sharing, im currently going through a hard time financially and with accomadation changes and uncertainty, so this video came at a perfect time for me ❤
I’m really sorry you’re going through a hard time. It will make you stronger when you come out of it. Keep pushing through. I’m glad to hear that my story can give some kind of peace and encouragement. That was my goal even if it was just one person that I could make feel better. Because I know it’s hard. Thank you for watching ☺️
Family should be there for one another during trying moments honestly
Yeah that’s what I always thought. Thank you for watching!
@@noellecasey it's well....God took you guys through that trying time!🙏

Im sorry for what you went through. I have not been through something so intense but I did go through a hard patch before having my son. My husbands family asked to move in with us to a new place we were gonna rent. We agreed to help them out. Worst mistake of my life. I cannot forgive them for everything they did to me. I simply cannot. We are on our own now and I can’t be more happy. I thought this day would never come!
I’m sorry to hear that! What a shame on them they were not good to you when you wanted to help. I’m sure you will be blessed for it though. I’m glad you are happier now. Thank you for watching! 🥰
New subscriber here ❤ currently binge watching
Welcome thank you for subbing! I hope you enjoy the videos 🤎🤎
@@noellecasey ❤️ definitely enjoyed them
I'm in the season of life and the stress took it out of me. I'm trying to keep my eyes on the Lord!! However it's hard in ur darkest times. I don't know if I would of been able to have gone Thur it! I'm a big big I need to be alone and everyone away from me when I'm stressed or going Thur it !! Thank u for this tho think I needed this today !! Homemaking use to give me peace but now I have to find it in the everyday.. Just have to keep my eyes on the Lord!! Again thank you!!!
Keep praying girl it will get better and you will pull through. It’s hard I know. I understand needing alone time when life is stressful. Hang in there! Thank you for watching 😘
I highly want you show us how to organize \ put your kids clothes I’m really struggling my kids don’t have closet in their room so I put their clothes in ours closet I m really love how you manage your home and I’m learning from you 😊
Well to be honest I do a no fold system now for the kids where I let them fold if they want to and have them put their clothes in their dresser space we all share. Makes life way easier when you learn to let go of some stuff as a mom that’s not actually important. Lighting the load feels really good!
Because I find my kids unfold all the clothes anyway to play dress up or get dressed for the day so why fold them to begin with it took me years to come to this realization and I wish I did it way sooner. I do the same for the babies clothes.
