  • It's day five and I'm enjoying my book, Crying in H-mart. We went to another library, got out new toys for a rotation, and I cooked.

    I could watch you cook all day, it’s so relaxing and gives me meal ideas as well.
    You and Alvin are wonderful parents, Alice is so adorable and so loved ❤
    Looking forward to tomorrow’s vlog.

    Love all your vlogs. Love Alice’s library dates. I love your honesty about the book. I felt your emotion as a mom of five young adults. When I read the book I felt the same way because in trying my hardest and wanting the best for my children they didn’t see it that way.

    Being a mom is like the hardest thing I have ever done. I feel like I am just constantly questioning everything I do 😂
    Also, I really like how you change out Alice's toys and just give her a few at a time. I wish I had done that because I'm sure my son was super overwhelmed with the massive toy box that was ever growing 😂😂😂

    • @thecozycommune
      @thecozycommune  3 місяці тому +1

      Being a mom is so hard! And yes I 💯 think a toy rotation is the best idea! It's so nice because Alice is always interested in the toys I put out, and clean up is a breeze!

    Being a mom is the hardest yet most rewarding part of my life. I had my son when I was 18 and he turns 17 this month and I still wonder if I’m doing a good job. We do the best we can and that’s all we can do. 🖤

    I love watching a fellow mom find time for herself and reading while also taking care of little ones! Also, I have been wanting to make my own yogurt in the instant pot but I am nervous my little and I won’t like it since we both like Greek yogurt

    • @thecozycommune

      I actually have a strainer so I can make Greek yogurt, and I use the whey for Alice's homemade formula, which is actually why I started making my yogurt!

    You are doing a great job with Alice. And a comment on you getting the book in day 4 about Housewives, your comment about loving staying home and always wanting that life is great and honestly what true feminism is…the choice to work or stay home when it is a possibility and no one being looked down on for their personal choice (or need to work). Love that. I am looking forward to your comments on that book.
    I also read/listened to the Willowbrook book and even knowing about the institution did not make it much better of a book. Your plot holes and repetitive nature comments were spot on.

    This is gonna sound weird but I love that you get so emotional when you talk about Alice and your relationship with her, esp given your experience in having her. It shows how much you love her. No one ever gets it right 💯 of the time... But you try your best and teach her right from wrong and to be kind. Sometimes I wonder if the basics are taught anymore 🤣.. I'm sure you and Alvin are doing just fine. She's a very happy baby. She's very smart.... and there's no question how loved she is. Love to you guys. ❤

    J that soup looked amazing! I just watched all your videos. I have missed seeing Alice. She is just becoming her own person. I saw where you cried about being a good Mom and have a great relationship with her. My advice is to teach her about Jesus. I know you read the bible. It's about raising your kids always with love. It doesn't mean its all rosie but you will never regret it. Proverbs 22:6. ❤
