Bree is a doll. She is so sweet. When she said “I am already happy”. I almost cried. Such a precious little girl. You are an amazing mom and a great role model for me as a future mom.

[@DoughertyDozen]

Aw, thank you! You'll be a great mom to your little one 🧡🧡🧡

[@amielsegismar5497]

When Bree Said "I'm already happy" just makes me realize how contented and happy she is. And Watching Harlee being so lovely and brave. So much love for this Family ❤️❤️❤️ Love, from the Philippines 💖

The more I watch the more I just love how you interact with your children. You are so patient and loving to ALL of them, it's so sweet to watch!

[@melaniefraser8827]

I absolutely love the reality of this vlog; piles of laundry, stuff not tidied up from previous night. It’s a refreshing change from the perfection that a lot of people would have you believe is normal! What a lovely family ❤️

[@jaray7710]

Reality right?

[@kelicampbell1021]

Bree has to be one of the sweetest kiddos ❤️… She is just always so peppy and sweet!

[@DoughertyDozen]

It’s true. I truly admire her and her biological brother’s (Patrick) ability to keep a positive outlook no matter what life throws at you.

[@KH-df8fc]

They seem like such sweethearts

[@texasgirl5411]

Patricks smile is so genuine! He seems like such a kind soul. What a sweet sweet boy.

Bree she is always happy!!!!! Smiling and happy

[@pmmarie93]

Zoey and Nevaeh hugging close to the end is everything. I know Bree is older than Zoey, but not by much, so Nevaeh is like the big, big sister she's always wanted, and Zoey the little sister for Nevaeh.

I am amazed at how you have such a lovely calm manner with your children I’ve watched nearly every tape and I’ve never seen you at all hot tempered with the children you never show frustration I honour you both for your parenting.I’m a 73 yr old grandmother from Australia

[@truebluelozz]

Your face when Bree mentioned the boys. That was priceless

[@shellyjay346]

I looooooooovvvveee how you give all of your children choices! What a great Momma!!!💖😀 OMGEEEE, little Harlee, the shopper, already mimicking Momma and big brothers and sisters, being so thoughtful of what each person would like...are you kidding me😭😂😭 at her age, she would be expected to be all about her, but nope! Bless her little heart, I welled up with tears! It shows the parenting each kid gets from all of you, the mannerisms and gratitude, thoughtfulness, kindness it's all reflected so clearly!❤️🙌❤️ They are blessed to have yous, and clearly loved and guided to be a great next generation, thanks for that.

[@aliciaoisen2552]

Oh man. As a mom of 6, i know how important it is to not have favorites, and I adore all your kiddos, but that Jordan of yours pulls at these mommas heart strings! Hes so special

I wanna thank you, Alicia. Due to watching your videos I have learned to approach my tasks a lot calmer. I only have one child, but I found myself getting easily overwhelmed with activities I needed to accomplish. Watching you do all you do, seemingly calm, relaxed and steady, I figured there is NOOOO reason I can't approach any task in the same manner. Your videos and shorts are fun, and I love them for that. But for me, I've gained so much more🥰 So, Thank you so much❤ You have literally changed my life🥰 All the best Dougherty's🥰❤

My sons first day of kindergarten I remember like yesterday. He is 33 now. We went to the bus stop and we waited his bus he went to get on. First step he turned around and said you can now mom and I did like a baby lol. I cried when I put all three of my grand babies on the bus the first day too. My other two are in PreK and daycare with number 6 due in in 3 days. They live an hour away. I am gonna have to take a ride next year to my 4th one off to kindergarten for the first time and cry again lol. I am a crier happy sad it all gets to me.

I think I have watched this one vlog probably 20 times now. Alicia, EVERYONE OF YOUR KIDS IS AMAZING, and that just goes to show you and Josh and everyone in their lives are amazing human beings. I wish you had the time to film a vlog like this everyday. I know the comment section on KZbin can be seriously unkind, but to be completely honest most family vloggers use their kids in terrible ways. I have never seen you do or say anything I would consider terrible. You are a real Mom, with an amazing spirit and boundless energy. When you were driving Harlee to pre k, and she started singing about the flowers and you grabbed your sunglasses, I almost started crying. You are the ONLY family vlogger I watch and I am proud to say it!! Thank you!!!🧡🏵🧡🏵🧡

[@katherinegalli3162]

I absolutely love your channel. Ignore those who find fault with you. I think they have forgotten that you have a credential in special ed. and know what you are doing raising your children. I would like to tell those that criticize you to get a life of their own to talk about. I am a retired teacher of 40 years and am impressed that you took your skills and developed your KZbin channel in order to make way more money than teaching. Good for you! Keep up the positive vibes:)

[@DoughertyDozen]

Thank you.

[@Amy199.]

Well said!!

[@jcam5064]

The things they pick to criticize and make videos about are insane. Like I saw one title that said something about her changing her clocks to pretend to be up at 5 or 6 am. What would it matter what time she’s doing it, because she’s still doing it. She’s still keeping 12 children alive happy healthy and safe. It’s not like she’s living a double life of abusing the children off camera and putting on a show for profit, because it would be obvious by the children’s behavior.

I love your channel! You are an amazing mom! I can tell you love all of them so much! What an exciting life for all of you. I was thinking how you could wake up the kids easier without going up and down the stairs. How about an intercom system? When my little girl was in K, her first day was awful. When she was getting off the bus, she missed the last step. She nodded dived literally in between the bus and the curve. She broke her nose, bruised everywhere. But she never cried. I cried! But she never did.
