You are not a failure sister you are an AMAZING MOTHER! You are doing A GREAT JOB! Love you sister and prayers for you through it all!
You are so sweet! Thanks for the encouragement. I appreciate the prayers ❤️
I just recently found your channel and you are NOT a failure! You’ve been given a heavy yoke to carry at a very young age. I’m impressed with your faith, courage, and outlook on things. Will be keeping you in prayers! 💕
I appreciate that so much ♥️ thank you!
You are not a failure! You’re doing the best you can. Don’t let the enemy beat you up. He’s a liar! I don’t have a super tidy home either. If you’re getting food on the table for your little ones, you’re doing great! ❤ We are all in this struggle of life together. Praying for you! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much! That means a lot. Some days I’m too hard on myself.
I just discovered your channel so I don't really know you super well, but I just wanted to say - I totally understand your frustrations and feelings with yourself, but at the same time, as an outsider, I see that you have Hashimoto's and are carrying the burden of child-rearing and housekeeping alone. Recently, my husband and I were both sick, one after the other. I had to do everything - all the chauffering, cooking, cleaning, nursing, etc. while he was sick, and then he did the same when I was sick. We both agreed that for the 3 days we each had to do that... we were exhausted!!! It's EXHAUSTING to do all the things. I have the greatest admiration in the world for people who are parenting alone. So much respect. I vote for when you get a full-time job, if that's what you decide, that you put some money in your budget for housekeeping help. Even if it's just someone to clean your bathroom and kitchen once a month. I know you don't need a stranger on the internet telling you what to do, but if you were my friend IRL, that's totally what I would recommend. 💖💖
Thank you so much for your kind words! That’s actually a good idea! I tend to hate asking for help but I’m learning that I need to sometimes! I have to remind myself that my life looks a bit different than the ideal - I shouldn’t judge myself by other standards. Thank you 😊
Sherlock is a gorgeous dog. I know you enjoy having him around! I love having cows for neighbors. They don't drive fast (haha!), and sometimes they serenade you as you walk by. What makes you think other moms "have it all together?" Their social media posts? Those are staged. I don't see you as a failure at all. You're a kind, smart, sweet person.
Sherlock definitely keeps things interesting! He is still in the wild puppy stage lol.
I definitely have to remind myself that social media only shows a fraction of peoples lives. I guess I struggle with comparing myself to others. Thank you for your words of encouragement ❤️
You are not a failure! You're doing the best you can! Please don't compare yourself to other moms. Other moms aren't in your situation, other mom's don't have it all together even if they appear to. I can totally relate about being messy and frustrated with myself for not being more tidy. It's a struggle for sure! I also have pure O OCD so I totally get it. Btw thanks so much for showing Sherlock! He is so stinking cute and BEAUTIFUL! Such a smart choice getting a collie! ❤ Loving your videos! God bless.
Thank you so much for the encouragement. It’s helpful to realize that others can relate to my issues too. I really appreciate this!
@@bethanybringsbooks You're welcome! You're doing better than you think you are! Being a mom is hard, being a single mom is crazy, whole other level hard. ❤((Hugs))
Thank you for sharing your heart with us. I've been catching up on your videos while working out. Thanks for being my workout buddy!
Also, you are amazing. You do SO much on your own while dealing with an autoimmune condition!
Aww thank you!
I really appreciate the encouragement!
I agree about the heavy kissing that these Christian books have. And how is that keeping our minds pure and on things above? 🤷♀️
I completely agree with you about the heavy kissing in "Clean books". I'm not a fan. I have the Narnia books I need read them. I haven't even started yet lol.
I am really enjoying the series!
I know what you mean about the heavy kissing and then nothing happening after....it doesn't seem realistic sometimes cuz I feel like real people would have a hard time stopping once it got to a certain point...🤔🙂
Agreed!
Regarding your kisses rant, what's so weird to me is that some Christian books kind of do that. Like, why? I don't get it.
Prince Caspian is one of my least favorite of the Narnia books (as in one I favorite the least. They're all my favorite, really).
If you like stolen artwork mystery books, have you tried Erica Vetch's Thorndike and Swann mystery series? Book one is an art mystery.
Yes, some Christian books do that too! I have the Erica Vetsch Series but I haven’t read it. I need to!
