    The transparency from your husband in telling the story about how he met, fell in love and wanted to marry you is so refreshing!

    Josh is so sweet. I love that a man admits that he cries. In my eyes that makes them a strong person.
    Josh, you are worthy. God's plan is perfect and he coordinated your union with Kristen and with Him.
    God bless you both ❣️

    Yes wedding pictures please please! You two are such an inspiration to the rest of us so real and genuine thank you thank you for all your work that you do with your Channel! We mothers of large families that are devoted to staying home with them understand where you're coming from and so so appreciate you and all your wholesome loving christ-centered entertainment. I love binge watching your videos and look forward to seeing more when it's convenient for you and your family. I think of all the garbage that's out there that people binge watch if people only would take time to watch wholesome content like yours their whole thought process and lives would be changed forever.

I haven’t had any luck with linen’s and my size! Cotton and acrylic I have found as well a lot of ! Love all of your information about clothing! Now when I go to Goodwill I say oh this would look good on Kristen !

What a good way to share with others about your feelings from beginning to today. Given what is going on in the world now you portray an innocence that many just don't have....I don't know you or your past and it doesn't matter. It's all about today and what you do to show Christ in your life and especially to your children. God bless you both 🙏 ❤

    Two takeaways from this (cute) video:
    1) forget everything you think you've known so far on friendzone
    2) nobody knows what's on a woman's mind, just like the woman herself
    3) everybody knows what's on a man's mind, just like the man himself
    4) never give up hope on dating (looks like an advice for stalkers)
    5) horrible tatoos: please keep your elbow down
    6) horrible tatoos don't prevent you from charming a woman
    7) I'm confused by this dating story, but "Il mondo è bello perché è vario" = it takes all kinds.
    (ok, It's 7 not 2, yep!)

    Awww, Josh you are very sweet, never change the way you show your feelings about your wife. Your girls will learn not to settle for a man that loves them less than their dad loves their mom (if that makes any sense).
    I hope God keeps on blessing you both with a beautiful marriage and a loving family.

  • @JJandJPublishing
    @JJandJPublishing 2 роки тому +6

    Hi, Kristen, I found your channel almost a week ago, and my hubby can contest that I have watched you every day since! The love you and your husband have for each other, is so beautiful!!!
    In one of your 2021 videos, you mentioned that a large percentage of older women made up the majority of your viewership (that was then). I'm in that group, and I concur - your personality is captivating.
    As far as marriage is concerned, an equally yoked companionship is the foundation in which a family can thrive. Dr. Myles Monroe once said, "The father is not the head of the family, but the foundation." How right he was!
    My hubby of 43 years (next month) says wonderful things about me too, but when I look at the magnitude of how God has used him to provide for me and our 13 children - enabling me to be a domestic engineer and having home-schooled in the past for more than thirty years, I commend husbands like ours for being submissive to God to the calling of a simple life, and for the sacrifice wherever and whenever necessary to put family first, as a nurturer and protecter.
    Lastly, Kristen, I love that you were led to start this channel. What you have produced is entertainingly wholesome as well as informational and educational, my kind of jam, and I agree with your husband... you may be more than what he thought he deserved, but now after more than ten years of marriage, you are a reflection of each other! May the Lord, our God continue to bless your marriage and your family! 💌 Justine

    Love hearing the story of how you both met. I smiled almost the entire time while listening. My husband and I have a very similar story. Apparently my husband and I met twice before but it’s the third meeting that I actually remember. We became quick friends and then best friends. Long story short...lots of ups and downs and two boys that are eight years apart. We recently celebrated our 23rd anniversary and are looking forward to many more years together.

    Josh, I think you deserve Kristin every much as she deserves you. You two are the sweetest and if I ever decide to get into a relationship again one day (didn’t pick the right person to be stuck in an elevator with) then you two are what I’m looking at as a goal.

      You are right. He absolutely deserves someone like me! And, I'm not always a piece of cake either! haha!
