Happy Mother’s Day, Jennica!! 💐 You have raised (and still are, don’t worry Momma that part never ends😉) one incredible young lady who is so responsible, funny, polite, and KIND! Thank you for sharing your journey with us. ❤

[@JennicaandAnnica]

Oh girlie, my oldest (23) is getting married in a matter of days, my 19 year old is starting his 2nd year of college and my youngest baby child just turned 18 and is graduating!!! This Momma is NOT ok 😂😢 so many new journeys. But blessed that they are all including me on their new journeys. Happy belated Mother’s Day 💖💚💛

[@lisawfriday]

The Mom/Daughter relationship becomes stronger once they turn 18 and even stronger when they turn 21. It’s a relationship that builds over a lifetime. But this season of life also allows her to grow as her person and you to grow as your person and also allows some branching out for both of you. Looking forward to seeing where the seasons lead you both 🫶🏻

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!! 🤍🌷 sending you so much love, light, and great sourdough vibes ✨🤣

[@laurieslifeessentials]

This video inspired some random observations for me on this mother's day, so I thought I'd share. You are so overwhelmed at the beginning, by the unbelievably incredible amount of love you feel when they come into the world! You spend years agonizing over how to raise them properly, focusing on every minute detail, and struggling with all that comes with that. Then one day you realize, miraculously, that you are there. You have done it. Their childhood, is over. Then this whole other emotion overwhelms you. 🥰 There is no moment on earth more bittersweet. It is then that you realize. Motherhood is not any one moment. It's ALL the moments. The ones that brought you there. And the ones yet to come.

[@JennicaandAnnica]

all the moments ❤

[@TiffanySuggs1]

I started watching your channel when AJ was 13 and I had just became a mama. Now I’m a mama to two kiddos with one on the way. Seriously crazy how fast they grow. Its literally you blink and theyr’e grown 🥲

Jennica, i love your vulnerability and genuineness. I am also a single mom and have been since she was 6 months. I’m also an emotional mom like you. I’m also devoted to my daughter with dating on the back burner. Seeing you both grow and your lives blossom gives me so much hope and light. I am so excited for your next chapter in life and i am looking forward to watching it all! Wishing you so much happiness, guidance and success! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Sarah-Mae-Andrews]

So excited for this next chapter for you both! I had my car in Brooklyn with me for the first year or so and it was sooo helpful with the transition to living in NY. Just having the ability to go where I wanted when I wanted and not feel… trapped? lol. That said, it got super expensive and I sold it a few months ago and now I have a different sense of freedom. Also taking your time to look for your first apartment in/around NY is so helpful too. Hopefully by looking more towards the fall, you’ll have an easier (and cheaper) time lol.

[@tiffanystrattan]

I have watched this video 3 times and kept thinking what am I’m going to comment about motherhood. I feel like I know what you’re going through but not really because my daughter is only 3 years old and I can’t imagine her being 18. She is my whole world. We spend 24/7 together so I can’t imagine being away from her when she gets older. I know you and Annica have such a great relationship that it will get stronger and she’ll always want/need her mama. I can’t wait to see what all the more adventures you girls go on! ❤

I 💯understand what you are going through I felt the same when my son turned 18 we were a lot like you and Annica and somehow with God’s help I made through him growing up and moving out, he moved out and came back home a few times. Now he is married and I am a grandma and it is extremely incredible just keep taking care of yourself and living a good life you will get through it!! God bless!

[@kacinungester5401]

My first baby turned 18 last year. But he also left home two weeks after h.s. graduation at 17 and went to navy boot camp and turned 18 the day he graduated boot camp. My last baby will b 18 in August. You are so proud of the good humans you raised and excited to have you back as a person. But sometimes it's hard and sad and lonely...it's a day to day thing

its truly so bittersweet!

If safety is a concern. I would suggest having her sign up for some self defense classes. I took one in college and it really opened my eyes to safety tips and how to protect yourself. Honestly it’s a class many young adults should take.

Happy Mother’s Day Jennica! Hope it was a fabulous one! I’m honestly in the same boat parenting wise 😂 My daughter is graduating High School this upcoming Friday 🎉 She will be turning 18 in October and I’ve had more than a few breakdowns than I care to admit 😂 It’s like they’re growing so fast in so many ways but secretly loving them still needing us as well….Maybe I’m selfish or just southern I want to keep my “Baby” with me for as long as possible too 😂 I wasn’t a teen mom but still a young mom (24) and a single mom to boot. I’ll be 42 in June and feel kinda lost with the thought of being an empty nester like who am I without being a mom 😂 Just gotta push through I guess 😂 It’s hard out here 😂

My boys are 27 and 24 and still live at home. I also have my 89 yr old mom living with us. I’m ready for them all to move out

[@pvm0708]

At this point i dont think your mom will be moving out if you know what i mean 😅. Also, coming from a 28 ( almost 29) year old daughter who still lives at home with her parents, extend your grown kids some grace. I obviously don't know the situation and what them still living at home means but, assuming that they are taking the necessary steps to better themselves ( whether that'd be studying or working) so that they can be independent in the future, all they need is support cause in today's day and age where even a one bedroom apartment can be unaffordable at times, sometimes living at home can be the only option. I'm not here to dismiss your feelings and, again, i dont know your situation at all so i could be way off line apart from the fact that it is completely natural for parents to want to have their space at some point again in their life ( it is the circle of life after all) but i'm just speaking from the grown child's perspective. It ain't easy for us either. At all. We already feel so behind in life as it is, can't wait to have our independence at some point and can even feel like we're disturbing by still being at home. If on top of that you add that your mom can't wait to have you out it can truly be a punch in the gut.

[@eileenseaman3393]

@@pvm0708 I am very aware of how living expenses are out of control. I have never asked my boys to leave ( unless they give me a disrespectful attitude which is rare ) and then I just throw the whole you can get your own apartment or house at anytime you feel you need to have your own place. They can afford it. They both have good jobs. I also am doing all the laundry, cleaning, yard work, + driving my mom to all her doctors appointments and social gatherings so I feel I earn the right to say they have my blessing to get their own place at those times and I don’t say it harshly. They do live a great life here. I am in my 60’s, retired after running my own business to take care of my mom so I do say it loosely I’m ready to be an empty nester. I’m glad you are still able to live at home too. I will never throw my kids out and even joke that one day if they find someone and want a family they’ll all still be living with me.

[@autumnruiz8788]

Not a mom here, but a daughter with a close relationship with her momma 🙋🏻‍♀️ I’m 24 and I moved out 2 years ago. You said the part that her childhood is ending, and maybe it does feel like that but truly I didn’t feel like an adult until about a year ago at 23. And even now I still call my mom for help and harass her all the time because I just feel like hanging out with her haha. At 18 I couldn’t afford to move out because it was too expensive so I stayed until 22 when I happened to find a great apartment out of nowhere and it wasn’t planned at all, I probably would have stayed home even longer. Also touching quickly on where to move in the NY area, if you want a parking spot then you probably won’t have any luck in any of the boroughs except maybe Brooklyn or Staten Island. If you go to New Jersey, you would maybe have some luck in Hoboken to still feel like you live in the city while only having to hop on a quick train to nyc. I live further in NJ in a town that gives the Georgetown feel and I know you love that, and I also live like literally on the train station so from me it’s a 45min ride to nyc. But then I feel like that defeats the purpose of saying you want to live in the city LOL

My daughter will be 24 next week. She is married and is pregnant with her second baby. I worry more now that she is an adult than I EVER did when she was a child. Parents have more control and decision making veto before age 18. Now I have to hope my adult child makes the right decisions for herself and my grandson. She was a good kid and she is an amazing adult and mother but the worry is always there. As Lorelei Gilmore says (paraphrasing) you don’t have your mom card when they are adults.

[@angelaluna258]

Happy Mother’s Day Jennica! I know how hard it is to have them be adults now. We spend their whole lives helping them grow and learn and get frustrated at times. Then when we realize they are adults and ready to take on the world, we wish it was easier. You’re right we are concerned about the other people not them.
