I’m so sorry I forgot to link the mascara!! It’s Bite Beauty!

[@MichelleH_]

Came here for that! Thank you Bonnie!!!!!

[@tristaburns4236]

Thank you!!

[@alishab1853]

The way you parent and the way Ruby parents are polar opposites and I love it! You are a wonderful mama and I love how patient you are and the gentle parenting is something I do also. You are a breath of fresh air!

[@hillary0813]

This is why I started following your sweet family. I love your mom advice, it helps me not feel alone in walking through this chapter. Its been my favorite chapter so far, but also the hardest, but also the most rewarding!! It's so hard but having others like you talk about it makes me feel better as a mom of littles. Thank you for always being real, especially when you get backlash for it. Prayers for a safe school year for you and your kids!

[@mariams9375]

Bonnie we NEED that kind of advice! Sooo many moms are struggling right now with parenting their little ones and we need honest helpful advice like that. Gentle parenting is hard and gets lonely! Hearing from someone who has been through it is so helpful, PLEASE do more of this. love!

[@katewells759]

Yes!!! ♥️

[@ariaXP1]

YES!!

[@nat2gr18]

Finally some mom advice!!!I have always liked the way you discipline and teach your kids and they have turned out so nice!!!People used to criticise you in the comments I remember that and I know that you were hesitant to talk about this kind of stuff so thank you,keep doing it

[@holliehoner1289]

Just sitting at my desk at work trying not to cry, it goes by so fast when your in the thick of raising em you don't know when its going to end. Now I've got a freshman and Junior in highschool getting to see the kind and good people they are turning out to be, made all these hard times worth it. Best advice my mom ever gave me "just got to love them through it"

[@loripeck4805]

This hit me in the feels as my only, started her senior year this week 😪 I hope I've raised her to be a valuable part of society. She is my life's work.

[@portraitsbym8331]

I agree with everyone saying the advice is so needed. There’s so much out there and to have someone remind us with younger ones that being steady pays off…it just does something for my soul. My favorite part was Olivia saying “it was worth it because it was cute” haha! Yes girl!

[@tigerpaws12961]

Bonnie, my DREAM would be if you had a parenting podcast!!! 😍 My late teen years/early 20’s we’re spent watching you raise the kids and now I have a 3 month old of my own. You parent just like I want to and now I literally get to see what my son will become if I uphold the same standards as you did! I want that. As someone who also works in the public school system, I get to see first hand kids that were raised to respect their parents/adults and kids that weren’t. It’s takes work, but it is possible. And I’m so thankful you have shared how you did it with your kids. Love you always!

[@ComfortingGrace]

I just love your mom heart. I appreciate your advice. I have one son who will be 9 in December. He is my life work as well, and it is such amazing, joyful, challenging, rewarding, frustrating work! It is the most important job on Earth! God bless you! ❤️

[@katej.1659]

And someday, when your kids are all grown up, they will tell you thank you mom for how good you raised us. Look at us, we are good, kind and hard working people and that's all you and how you raised us. I was raised in the same way and I told my mom that many times. You are a great mom bonnie!

[@trinanguyen5083]

My heart melted... I wish I had the same childhood as your kids are having right now. Cannot stop srying. You can't imagine how nuch joy, happines and emotions your family brings everyday. Thank you so much! ❤

[@evynnmaloney]

You are such a good mom, Bonnie. Praying for your family as kids start the new school year ❤️

[@Jennys5800]

Can’t tell you how much I needed to hear that mom advice. I have a 16 month old and am starting now to kindly teach him ❤️

[@PinkBox82]

Never noticed how much Cody looks and is like Joel 😁 - awesome all kids are back in school! 🥰

[@rachelpartridge3639]

Bonnie, I’ve watched you since I was a teenager. Now I’m a mom with 2 young babies/toddlers. It’s so draining and I’m constantly looking for advice. I didn’t click on this video expecting to hear exactly what I needed to. Thank you💗💗💗

[@ginnytinkler6315]

Needed to hear this. Days can be so tough when you feel like no one is listening. It's good to hear from other moms to know it's normal and that it does pay off eventually.

[@andreajimenez4736]

A 22 minute vlog?! Just what I needed this morning while getting ready 🎉

[@sarasshutters6987]

Bonnie it made my day to hear your mom advice. Thank you so much. You don’t know how much I needed to hear this.

[@omaopa6923]

The eye role from Cody at 25/26 seconds 😂

[@Jackieelizmiller]

Thank you for the mom chat. I’m in the thick of it with a four year old and a nine month old. 😅 I’m in survival mode a lot and it seems like the repetition is just never ending with discipline. But I know it will be easier one day. This vlog hit this momma in all the feels. Thanks for being a friend Bonnie 😘🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@millzb8169]

Oddly, I feel like I needed one more summer of watching your red brick house summer. I cried in thankfulness with you at the beginning. And I for one LOVED your mom advice while changing sheets. And GO Lincoln reading those words so quickly. It's a blessing to have reading come so naturally!

[@bonniehoellein]

It feels this being our last back to school here!

[@allisongonzales6053]

Yes!! I needed this. I’m struggling so bad right now getting my kids to listen. This week has been so much better!!

[@Angelina-sn1pz]

I love everything you had to say. I have 3 kids all ages 4 and under and boy is it tough! So many hard moments but in the midst of all the crazy there is still so much good. I tell myself all the time I’m going to miss them being so young and innocent.

[@allysonlawson6948]

Bonnie I needed that mom advice today like no other. From the bottom of my heart THANKYOU 🙌🏼🖤

[@foodandfoilsm8176]

Love you Bonnie! That advice is so important!! I was not raised that way and want to do better for my future children! You are soooo right!

[@akordek85]

Late to the vlog today, had a busy day! I so appreciate you mom advice! As a foster mom of kids of all ages I have watched you for 7 years now since you were pregnant with Lincoln! I've taken advice from your parenting without you even realizing you were giving it, I appreciate you Bonnie for that!❤️❤️

[@nevsgreens]

bonnie i love that you give mom advice because when im a mommy i know ill think of you, not only that but for moms like mine that are learning how to b a mom all over again or just not the best with the “mom” label, i know theres women out there that you do help

[@sharonl3597]

I love your vlogs, your parenting style and your advice. So refreshing. Thank you

[@patriciadurham815]

Hi Totally agree with you on mattress cover especially a quilted one Gives the bed a high end feel plus keeps mattress clean Happy back to school for the kids

[@michellemwells7775]

You have done a great job at raising your kids Bonnie 💜 glad the kids had a good first day wish them all the best for this school year 💚❤️

[@emilee_lewanick]

As a mom of two young children I really appreciate your advice! Children are our life’s work; you are absolutely right! I just love this and you ♥️

[@Kathykath123]

You are exactly what I inspire to be as a mother, thanks for sharing your advice with us.

[@rachelledelong9037]

This mama is on the struggle bus and your mama advice today hit home amd I needed this so much 😭❤

[@rebeccawoodbixler9536]

Bonnie, that was great parenting advice. As a full time mother who has already raised her children, I sure do wish more mothers would follow your advice. They would be surprised what independent, thoughtful and confident children they would raise. ✨

[@ShilohShepherdmom]

Oh Bonnie, yourlaughing about how quickly you got over your kids going back to school made me laugh out loud. Yaaas! Right there with you.

[@lucy6487]

I needed to hear that advice on being a mother. I’m 23 and have a almost 2 year old and I’m pregnant with my 2nd. He’s such a handful and it’s hard to know how to teach him how to behave at such a young age. Thankyou 😊

[@julieroode3731]

oh my goodness bonnie, i freaking love you so much

[@dananderson3243]

I needed to hear about talking to your children! Im in the rough patch with a wuld 2 year old 🥰 Thank you for sharing what you did and I think I'll implement that to how i teach my lil man.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@lizlund7091]

You have fabulous kids! I’m sure they have their moments but you and Joel are raising amazing people! On another note, I still can’t believe your house has not sold. It’s so cute and well maintained! ❤️

[@louiseelleningram1639]

You taught your kids the way I taught my daughter. We have a great relationship. You deserve a great mummy badge to wear xxx

[@brandonjarmanofficial]

I loved this video so so much. I could watch it all over again. Love spending time with you all!

[@tonyablack3902]

It was so nice to hear advice with being a first time mom.

[@kaitr6957]

My absolute favorite kind of vlogs! I just love you and your family 💗

[@alexisnicole3813]

I needed the mom advice because I have been struggling with exactly what you said!! Love your videos!!

[@Kpmomof4]

Love you Bonnie! Really enjoyed this vlog so much 😘🥰

[@rosamarinalopez9231]

Holy cow! I really needed to hear this. I know exactly how you felt. I’m in the thick of it with a one year old and three year old. It’s been a little harder on me because of my osteoarthritis, back issues. My in-laws have been so hard because they claim I’m a terrible parent and too strict.

[@EllieKinard]

My kids are 5 & 6 right now and we have definitely entered a new stage with them where they are pushing back more right now BUT also somehow listening more as well. I definitely feel like a vail has been lifted from me and I am less exhausted and want to be with them more. I'm excited for this new stage of elementary kids!

[@emilymitchell7013]

I really needed your mom advice!! I have a 2 year old who can run me ragged sometimes, you are so right I still need to teach him before I can be upset that he’s not listening

[@mom2boys86]

I love when your honest Bonnie, you have a great personality!

[@allorashae]

Literally in the beginning, mama mode turned on when you called Linc’s name and asked him how much 😂!! My mom is the same way lol!! Good luck this year kids! Y’all have amazing parents. Be amazing and may God cover each of your schools, teachers, family, friends, etc! Each day you walk out of your homes into the schools, I pray you each walk out of those schools and make it back home safely ❤️ much love from SC

[@CL-km7rj]

Loved this, I have a 2 1/2 and 7 month old and.... wow it's hard! This was great advice Bonnie, I needed to hear this ❤

[@KayeCarterTV]

Lady is sweetest and cutes fur baby ever…🐶Sending hugs prayers and kindness with lots of smiles. You and Joel are such good parents. 🙏🏼💖🙏🏼

[@shirlrebert4469]

Oh those years are hard but cherish every minute time passes so quickly and before you know it you're a grandmother which is glorious not stressful like mothering

[@brittanyperry7842]

I needed to hear this. I have a 15 month old and a baby on the way. It’s a lot, but so good to hear that the effort and work does pay off! Thank you ❤️ Side note - Boston is a mini Joel!!!!

[@joyneville265]

They do start listening and it seems like it happens in a flash! All of the sudden they grow up! Mine all of the sudden are 19, 17, and 14.❤

[@jessicaouvrard1926]

I needed to hear this! Love you Bonnie

[@cassidylowe4453]

Seriously thank you for sharing your advice.

[@eastynlong9809]

As someone who doesn’t have kids yet, I appreciate you sharing your words of wisdom because I will remember your words in years to come. And no need to apologize for what you say on the internet! People are going to always find something to talk about so just say what you want Bonnie because it is honestly benefiting more people than it is not. So THANK YOU💛

[@karisabutler]

As a tumbling instructor that double back flip was impressive! I hope that he is in some sort of gymnastics class. 😊

[@Lauren-yx5hc]

I love to see how you love your kids. ♥️

[@RedneckJessi]

I absolutely adore you Bonnie!

[@meganscot5562]

I can tell you’re having the time of your life with the kids back to school! Lol everyone needs a break

[@sandymac2950]

Dying over Olivia’s outfit! She’s just darling

[@Chelsiej12]

I love your mom advice! Are there any books that you found really helpful as you’ve been raising your kids? I love what I’ve seen of your parenting style and your kids behave so well. I’m just so impressed with your family and love watching you guys!

[@savannahmullis4860]

I need your encouragement today I’m in the toddler phase with two kids who don’t listen to dang thing I say. Lol!! Thanks for the peep talk today to just keep swimming!

[@janearmbrecht6312]

The mom advice is my favorite ❤

[@jenniferrowland5355]

I 100% agree with your parenting advice. We did the same with our 3 boys. We always taught them to say yes mam, and yes sir. And we would say it to our kids and other parent. And I ALWAYS talked to them like they understood me. Even when they were babies.

[@robinnieto2703]

Thanks for the great advice! Where were you when I had young children, I needed that wisdom.

[@urhvearts]

Your an AMAZING mom, I love watching your videos! 🌷🌷

[@barbhawkinson659]

Bonnie I totally agree with you about starting to teach children when they are babies and yes consistency is the key...and the hardest part 😊 I love it when kids are so out of control that the parents call Super Nanny Jo to come do something with their terrible kids. Jo watches the situation for a couple hrs and then sits the parents down and let's them know the kids aren't the problem the parents are 😆 You can't blame a 3 yr old that has never been taught or even worse an out of control teenager. Hopefully what you shared will help somebody. Happy you found that avacado! 😊

[@brianamgg]

stop this makes me feel so old😭 I remember when Lincoln was a baby!! have a great school year!

[@txtort1]

I remember cute little Boston a few years ago on the first day- he was so concerned that the teacher wouldn't know how to say his name properly! And now he's so grown up! Where did the time go?! Glad they all had a great first day 😊

[@thecavisfam3]

Yea and hemade her spell it Bostin 🥲🥲

[@stoofboo]

Bonnie was cracking me up during the sheet segment… she was hiiiigh energy

[@Debbywithy]

Prayers for a great & SAFE school year.

[@andrealongobardi2757]

Can we just talk about Olivia’s hair…….GORGEOUS

[@MariaDejesus-kl9ey]

Wow the kids are so grown. Olivia is so beautiful. I'm glad to be part of all of your families blogs.

[@abigayle2711]

You guys are awesome and inspire so many people but I’m not sure if you uploaded this after but I started school on August 5th I hope everyone that’s seeing this has a great day!

[@spoostad]

Love this video. Love you moms content too. Beautiful family!

[@MNB2014]

Love the parenting advice!! 😊

[@justinfelt748]

Happy Friday, Bonnie!😊😊😊😊😊😎☀💙💙💙💙💙🌈🌷💖💖💖💖💖💖👍. You're the funniest parent in the world with everything in between - The music stops while the dog went inside the school bus (no animals allowed😀😀), and Olivia is so excited to go back to school! YAY!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉. Also, did you hear the news yesterday? Queen Elizabeth the second had passed away.😢😢. The city of London and the whole world will miss her so much. Let's pray for the queen and honor her respects.🇺🇸💙🌈🌷🇬🇧🙏💜👍

[@paytenwerbecky6262]

Happy first day of school ❤️

[@abbiecookson9727]

I really love videos like this your such a brilliant family videos love when your KZbin notifications pop up

[@mommyduncan84]

Lol, Lady getting on the bus is hilarious ! Our 52lb Golden-doodle, Homer enjoys the bus as well. Our bus driver brings him a bone every morning 😊 Safe to say Homer looks forward to the bus each day far more than the kids 😆

[@debbiemorgan6701]

It's great parenting advice. I see so many argue with their children. I never have. If my children acted out in public we just left where we were. I feel like I have trained them as the Bible says. I always hated when school started. We enjoy our kiddos so much. My daughter and Granddaughters live next door. This year one moved into an apartment with roommates and the other started college and has to be in the dorm freshman year. It has been so hard. I miss them so much. Your children are such sweet kiddos with great manners. You and Joel have done an excellent job with them. I can tell that you enjoy being with them and they enjoy being with you. What a blessing that is to all of you. I am a retired teacher and I can tell you that is not the case with every family. God bless all of you!

[@britneybritt2012]

I’m so happy about your little rant about the Little’s. I needed to hear it I have a 12yr old, 10 yr old, and a 3 yr old and I’m exhausted!!! And here I am pregnant with baby number 4. I am just exhausted!!!

[@bethh1994]

I was cracking up during this whole video! 😂 You and Joel are so funny! 🥰

[@bethh1994]

Consistency is key for them to listen!! Give all the Mom advice please! 🤍

[@debbiealtman4572]

First day of school is the hardest for some of us. My son is 35. I like the way you taught your kids when they were younger and what you do now. Your kids are well behaved.

[@agaskin1820]

Good grief thanks for the advise! I have a 2 year old that is very strong willed. Hes always saying no and testing boundaries.

[@marisolfernandezmelo675]

Have a amazing school year

[@SamanthaSmith-mp6hq]

Thanks for making me cry. I am currently in the toddler phase so it’s been alittle rough. Learning to live in the moment

[@brendanightingale7563]

I’m going to miss your house!!! And that hibiscus 🌺 wow!!❤️

[@kri5t1]

I need that mum advice thankyou Bonnie xxx

[@kristinmaries1886]

Bonnie I love your videos ! I only use white sheets too ❤️

[@orlanoso9178]

Not a parent here, but can tell who is a good one when I see it...You are a good mom, so Joel is a good dad...great job...you guys are doing an excellent job as parents..bravo!

[@decoygarden7645]

Tiny pump hack! Rubberband around the pumper under thr spout! Works like a dream!! Grateful for you!

[@alehandracbvlogs4432]

It's 3:15pm here in Gainesville, GA 🍑 I laughed when you said it's just you and I and that guy until he gets lost 🤣🤣

[@debbliles1069]

Oh bonnie just wait! My husband is a contractor & i help when im feeling good! We have 2 girls & they are 19 & 17 every year of their lives we have instilled helping others, listening to others & you might be surprised! & showed them our team work & work ethic & this yeah oh my gosh girl they are both working our oldest moved out of state & I home schooled her 3&1/2 years of high school! She loved it! We went thru K12 best way ever!! Our baby girl is almost 17 works for a serving department in a living home for the elderly in a big facility! They shown us what they have been taught all through out this last 9 months & im crying cause its so true about our kids watching & hearing our every sound or action!!! I have a illness called crps & its very painful & for the last 12 years they have seen their daddy fight for me & care for me & they saw that & its naturally instilled in them! Our baby got a group together & had things that she didnt wear or use & gave it to a girl who needed it! Let me also say hold on to Olivia & cherish this next set of years cause they literally go warp speed!! Jr high goes fast but when high school hits & 1 day their a freshman & with out even thinking about it your at graduation! So hold on mama treasure each time they need mom talking where you just sit & listen & then it changes from talking to her to talking with her or them!! Thank you for being more open just ignore if its words you dont need to hear! This is what i noticed in our daughters a jr in high school & 1st year out of high school mamma here!! Have a beautiful day!!!🧡🌺🙏🏼🦋🧡

[@brooklynthomas1252]

Bonnie I needed that advice! As a mama of 4 boys I have been STRUGGLING.

[@kaylapugh9622]

Loved the Vlog
