    Its nice that you let Henry fill the bird feeder himself, even if they spill a bit its nice for kids to get the chance to be independant.

      @@tracigresham7164 dont worry I fully understand why it's easier to just do it yourself. You dont always feel like cleaning up the mess they're going to make after it gets dumped everywhere 😅 No judgement

    Oh my goodness.. such great ideas! Gifts for everyone to enjoy.. we love thinking outside the box.. and books are perfect gifts!
    My children love books and they are now teens..
    That squirrel was a hoot! And spurgeon filming had us cracking up.. reminded me of old home movies!.. 😊

      I might add we have 4 older children out of the home and we adopted 3 babies who now are.. 15 14 and 11..but they all loved reading time always. We are currently doing the Hobbit.

    I think Spurgeon displayed wonderful character traits as he watched his brother get all these gifts as he watched on the sidelines. That’s very difficult at that age!

    Henry’s speech is getting better, my son had the same issues. We just slowed down our speech and enunciated for him and made him practice words he struggled with. He will grow out of it!

    • @Amval_
      @Amval_ 4 роки тому +2

      AMYforHIM it’s more than a certificate lol
      It’s credentials, stress, and so much more but worth it at the end lol

    • @AMYforHIM
      @AMYforHIM 4 роки тому +6

      Valeria Mosqueda my husband has been a public school teacher for 25 years, so I’m aware of the process. A “teaching certificate” is the formal term in our state after you get your degree, sit for your licensure exam and ultimately obtain your state teaching license. That just seemed like an awful lot to put down when I was just wondering if Ben thought about teaching in a professional setting. Hopefully Ben/Jessa knew what I meant.

    • @Amval_

    Happy Birthday Henry! Jessa, I love the respect and love in your home and the honest appreciation your children have for each gift no matter how small. They appreciate the wonders of the world and time with you and each other as well as the joy of a Saturday morning donut with Dad as a treat. They work together well and help you as well as look out for their baby sister. Families like yours are rare in this day and age. I look forward to your videos and treasure the smiles and glimpses of your life you share. I know it isn't always easy for you, but you make it look that way. I keep your family in my prayers that you always have the joy you feel right now with these little treasures you are capturing in these videos known as Spurgeon, Henry, and Ivy.💖

    Great video! Happy Birthday to Henry. I really enjoyed watching this. The boys are so smart and funny, and you and Ben seem to be excellent parents. I love the gift a day idea! Spurgeon knows his sharks! We feed the birds a lot here too and the baffle is the only way we've found to keep the squirrels away. That and the squirrel buster bird feeder (but that's rather spendy).

You guys are wonderful parents and I love watching your sweet family grow. God bless you!
