🏠 From Fixer-Upper to DREAM HOME: A Progress Tour of My Midcentury-Modern House

[@CozyCloudASMR]

Idk if you mentioned before that your mother gifted you the down payment. It made me emotional. That gift has so much sacrifice, discipline, and love attached to it. God bless your family 💜

[@GirlandTheWord]

It certainly does, and we appreciate it wholeheartedly ❤️ Thank you for your blessings 🙏🏼

[@miamivacation]

I guess all the Asian parents will do this. House is the most important thing for them ，they always say buy a house ，don't rent a house❤

[@arosete3512]

I know several Filipino families who have helped their kids with house down payment. They work so hard and want their kids to get ahead. You are blessed.

[@ttth225]

​@@arosete3512 Not my parents unfortunately 🤷🏻‍♀️ they did not save any money, just spent everything on things that they can show off to their peers

[@JustPassingBy_Yolo]

Your mom is such a blessing. I definitely want to save up for my kids and gift them financially when they get married and start their new life. It'll definitely help start their life together as one. Love love.

[@debrap947]

Your Mom is such a blessing in so many ways! Sounds like some people are very jealous of the amazing gift from your mother, but it is her money to do with whatever she pleases. Your home is looking beautiful, congratulations.

[@tjpaison]

Anh, I’ve been a follower of yours & your corgi from when you were back at your LA apartment. I haven’t been in your page for a while until yesterday. I’m so impressed with your home & the renovations you & your hubby have done. God is good. Thank you 🙏 for loving our Lord Jesus Christ & sharing everything you do with the world. God bless. P.S I love your style, it’s so wholesome. And your Mum is truly a blessing. 🙏❤️✝️❤️

[@GirlandTheWord]

Thank you so much! ❤️🙏🏼

[@kimdkus]

That house is a blessing from your Heavenly Father! You’ve been faithful to Him so He blessed you!

[@wilsonfamily322]

I have been following your journey for years. I love how you give God all the glory! I am proud for you and your family for your hard work and dedication to this project for the future generations. You brought a little peace into my life during the pandemic...and now are a blessing bringing clarity to my sometimes chaotic mind. May God continue to bless you. From Dallas, TX.

[@GirlandTheWord]

❤️❤️❤️

[@virginiabrayton7362]

How beautiful that your mom worked so hard for you. That’s what moms do. It’s called love. That she gifted the money to you is your personal and family business. She must have been so excited to finally give you this gift. Never feel guilty. I love that you shared this story with us. God is always good. Your videos are lovely and fill me with calmness. ❤

[@PrettyLilSmile]

That is absolutely beautiful and truly brought tears to my eyes. I know you've spoken about the differences you and your mother have had in the past and that is just a prime example of how love, God's love, conquers all. I'm so glad she was able to bless you both in a way that would help you bless others!

[@GirlandTheWord]

Amen ❤️🙏🏼

[@mateta.pagdanganan5134]

The story about your mom brought me to tears. My parents have also been incredibly generous with me, especially during this last year as I've been trying to heal from chronic illnesses. So grateful for this and the other ways they have invested in me over the years. God is so good, and parents who love the Lord are such an amazing gift.

[@lilzayahlomula5388]

Ahn, your home is so beautiful! I especially was touched by the story of your sweet mother, what a beautiful picture of sacrificial love.

[@carolines3953]

Hi Anh, I recently happened across your videos and I’ve been loving them. I’m a stay at home mama of four little kiddos and watching your videos is such a treat and inspiration amidst the (sometimes) chaos of raising up small children. I love how you interweave scripture into what you share. 💕

[@Kelly_Tang]

You did an amazing job renovating your space! It’s so cozy and beautiful ❤

[@lisaw3153]

Amazing!! Congrats! love all your designs enjoy your beautiful new home

[@dianebaker5243]

[@geensjc]

I am so happy for you to see your dream home come to life! I remember following you back in your apartment days and it’s truly great to see your journey. Absolutely beautiful home! Thank you for continuing to share with us 🙏🏾

[@GirlandTheWord]

Thank you so much! ❤️❤️

[@jillianpolanco23]

Wow I loved what you said about your mother. It really touched my heart immensely. Reminds me of the verse in the Bible where it states that the Godly leave an inheritance to their children. I believe this is both spiritual and physical.

[@naromiesbeninche6975]

Congratulations 🎉 Your mom is awesome! God is good! It's been a minute since I watched the channel

[@meep9683]

looooooool the landline in the bathroom!!! I would never.

[@GoogleUser-wx8mw]

So wonderful to see how well the home turned out. And really, you having a beautiful home to raise a family in takes nothing from the rest of us. Enjoy this gift from your mom so make her joyful; she is showing you the provision of the Lord for you. Congrats!

[@GirlandTheWord]

What a beautiful demonstration of the abundance mindset! Thank you for your blessings ❤️🙏🏼

[@pranali3061]

Parents love is unconditional 💓

[@ElegantlyPrecious]

❤🥹 thank you for sharing your story and the blessing from your mom. When parents love, nothing compares. ❤️

[@meghaghosh2545]

People judge you for having money. They also judge you for not having money. You deserve this. You deserve a good and beautiful life and family. And families are supposed to have each other's backs. So don't care about those snarky comments.

[@Isabel-wi5dq]

Absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing it with us. Wishing you both many happy times in your lovely, finished home.

[@tamimaahmed8821]

Mothers are amazing, we are so lucky to have them in our lives. Something similar happened to me; from my father when we bought our home, we are truly blessed. All praise be to God. Congratulations on your home.

[@jennyrakoto]

Bless you both ! You deserve this beautiful house and this beautiful life !Thank you for sharing with us and for your kindness !🙏💕

[@izzitempleton8047]

Anh, you really inspire me with each of your videos. You helped me so much when I was re-discovering my faith and now when I am figuring out how to live it out in this modern world. Congratulations on your home, and bless you and your mother - everything truly comes from love and you embody that in every way ❤

[@GirlandTheWord]

[@sashilaimchen4710]

Much love from Nagaland, India.. you are a blessing Anh

[@chinelguy3247]

Thank you for this video and may God bless your mother😇🤗

[@MsDieynaba]

Beautiful story for a beautiful home. 🙏🏾 There's an affirmation that I make that goes, 'generational curses are turned into generational blessings'. Your mother's story is a prime example of that, that despite the trauma she faced, she found peace and is setting up her descendants for success. They, in turn, will do the same for their own descendants, creating abundance for generations to come. 🤍 Also, it sucks that people are jealous of what you've achieved. Your blessing is yours by the leave of God. I believe He fashioned it according to His divine plan, so nothing on Earth can take it away from you. May He bless you, your house and your loved ones! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@AfricancoolChic]

Just amazing 👏 God bless you all.

[@suzanablank5809]

Such a beautiful legacy from your mum, amazing transformation, so happy for you, your hubby and yr mum in her new home/retired. Id only change in dinning room where fireplace and access to the yard was and create big window to enable light, and leave a door from gym to the yard too to access outdoors for yoga or mat exercises when weather permits. The rest is b e u t i f u l l. Love the prayer and board games corner too. Kitchen, pantry ans living space is a m a z i n g!

[@rebecacristian6155]

Thank you! I am so grateful for you. I love how you give the credit to God. There really are not many out there who do this. Also, i feel somewhat close to you for God made that we bith got married in the same month, same year, during pandemic situation. We are still waiting for God s perfect plan to give us a home to call ours. I felt so inspired to do the same as you with the home I ll call ours: to honour God and serve others through such a gift . Thank you once again!!

[@AnnieSpeaks]

What a blessing. Thanks for sharing.

Lovley home. Lovley Familie. I am with you since the beginning. And even though I am not Christian I enjoy your spiritual content. I find it healing and calming. Now that I have exams again.

[@GirlandTheWord]

I’m so glad you can find peace and comfort from my channel ❤️🙏🏼

[@natsie8561]

Thank you for making me believe that sometimes we have to trust in our own plan despite what other people say that makes us guilty. I am in the middle of struggling between trusting my own intuition about my relationship and what I have gained so far with my fiance in the process, however, people keep saying bad things about my decision to still keep my relationship and get married soon. Your video reminds me that sometimes others don't really know about our story and the process behind it, at the end of the day, trusting God and His path leads to the best decision and result which I do not regret.

[@ChrisRampersad]

Beautiful home

[@prkhumzicles]

Beautiful thumb nail. I clicked immediately because of it

[@swatipai168]

Your mom is another form of God in your life for all that she has done for you.

[@GirlandTheWord]

I know you must mean well, but parents are not gods and they should never be elevated to that level 🙏🏼 My mother has sacrificed a ton, no doubt, but like most immigrant parents, she has also struggled with her fair share of mental health burdens. It has taken us a long time to establish healthy boundaries and a functional, loving relationship. ❤️

[@cynthiajerore7548]

Your home 🏡 is beautiful
