This video has got to be one of the most honest, heartfelt story of your life with Nolan. It truly felt like chatting with a friend and baring your true feelings. He seems to be such a good man. You truly are blessed that your beautiful boy seems to have both your and Nolans personalities. Thank you for sharing and I'm praying that your road to feeling less anxious is clear.

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you kindly. It means a lot that you care. God bless!

[@jolenewynn1671]

What a beautiful story. Gods hand is evident in every part of your journey. Dont worry about your weight. Your health and being able to eat is more important after what you have been thru. Just make small changes as slow and steady makes progress . Have a wonderful trip. Happy Birthday to Nolan!

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you kindly!

[@grechelleferreira3560]

Happy Birthday Nolan🎂 As blessed as you feel to have Nolan as your husband I am certain he feels blessed to have you as his wife♥️

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you!

[@judydenham2110]

Your comment about your weight really touched me so I want to share something that happened to my daughter. She and her husband have been married for almost 20 years (later this month) and she is definitely not the same weight she was when they got married. She has given birth to my 3 grandsons, battled diabetes and other health issues and quite frankly just gotten older. One day recently I noticed that my son-in-law was staring at her and my daughter asked him "what are you staring at?" and he replied "you". She said "why?" and his response: "because you're so beautiful". So when he tells you that you are more beautiful now, believe him. He is seeing not your "outside body" but who you are. Love your videos.

[@theMennoniteMom]

That's so beautiful! She's got a gem! Thanks for sharing that with me!

[@judydenham2110]

@@theMennoniteMom that she does - and I have the best son--in-law! God bless you and your family. BTW I could watch Xander all day long - he just makes me smile.

[@peterwhite9261]

Great story. One can tell he is a good husband and father. Happy Birthday to him

[@grandmashomemade9204]

Happy birthday Nolan hope its a wonderful day.

[@texasoutlook60]

God is so incredibility awesome!! Stories like these are so revealing of God's love for His children. Thank you for sharing!! Blessings ~~Sidney Anne Happy Birthday Nolan!!!

[@theMennoniteMom]

Yes He is!

[@emilyhoover3411]

How he takes care of you......!!! Made a lump form in my throat 🥰 my husband loves me unconditionally as well! Happy birthday to the birthday boy! 😉 My brother is in Alaska right now fishing too...

[@theMennoniteMom]

Yes he does! So glad to hear you have a keeper as well. (: interesting your brother is here!

[@deborahryan2654]

Your transparency is so endearing, and we appreciate this lovely tribute to Nolan. Hope you catch lots of halibut in Alaska!

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you kindly!

[@jewelssylva3738]

I am a lot like you in nature & health issues. God gave me a man who seemed to understand me, & even when he didn't he'd be patient. He did hard physical labor & yet I can remember him coming home, tossing his keys on the table & pitching in. He passed away but I had a treasure many people never find; I was loved with a deep unconditional love. For that I am eternally grateful. I'm glad that you are grateful for God blessing you with Nolan ☺️.

[@HomesteadingChicks]

Thank you for this! You helped me remember some good qualities in my husband as well. Happy Birthday Nolan!

[@Elle-1156]

Your husband realizes what a beautiful person to are both inside and out. Enjoy your vacation.

[@conniekreider6414]

I just watched this video for the first! Your honesty touches hearts! Don’t stop. I love the way you look to God❣️

[@sandrarandazzo5172]

Nolan sounds like the Best God could have given you. Happy Birthday Nolan🎂

[@t.j.sanders4213]

I enjoyed hearing your story. It made me reminisce about my husband and me. Too had anxiety and asked for a sign.. We've known each other for 29 years married 19. He tells me I'm more beautiful now than when we first started dating. ( I'm over weight have graying hair and wrinkles starting 😒). As we experience life together our love and respect for each other deepens. Keeping the Lord first in our marriage has been what has helped us through the hard times. I love him more now than ever. God bless you and a Very Happy Birthday to Nolan!!🎂🎉

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thanks for sharing! Do glad you have a wonderful marriage!

[@rhondalcouch]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NOLAN!!! Enjoy your trip with the family.

Your love story is so beautiful as you both are. ❤️ Happy birthday to Nolan and 🙏 for you all

Thank you!

[@alfiesflower8218]

Hello, I feel the same as what another lady said, this conversation feels like I am sitting down with my dearest friend, over a cup of tea having a good old chin wag. Birthday greetings to Nolan. I really, really love your videos , I also think you are an amazing family, under know elusion that all is perfect all the time, but what I admire about you two is that you work together, it seams that the pair of you have never lost that respect for each other, you both treat each other with the love and kindness that you each deserve. Lovely, lovely people and lovely, lovely family. Have a great time in Alaska , it is one place that I would love to visit, but it’s abit far to hop on the bus from London, England . Keep safe and be lucky 💞💞💞

[@theMennoniteMom]

Your too kind and one never heard the expression "chin wag". 😅 must be a British term but I still rich that one away. I like it! Thanks for being here! Without folks like you I wouldn't be here. I am honored

[@debbieclark4056]

I know this was two years ago but I really loved this video and how you are speaking so highly of your husband is so wonderful to hear especially in today’s world. I also liked that you shared about your weight and your autoimmune disease and your weight gain. I’m a lot older than you 64 but I have had a lot of health issues during our 44 years of marriage and I always felt bad because of my health issues I had open heart at 55 and heart attack in 2019 then came down with autoimmune liver disease in 2021 and so been on high doses of prednisone which has caused moon face and weight I weigh more than I have ever in my life so it was so helpful that you shared your autoimmune struggles. We never know how much we can help someone by sharing our own experiences. I love listening to you I have two daughters in their 30’s and it is so good to hear young people with good heads on their shoulders as you and your husband have! God bless

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you for your encouragement! I'm sorry for the health issues you've gone thru and I can do relate to the weight thing. I've tried much to lose and it's extremely difficult for me. Sending hugs

[@janetlovesjesus100]

A beautiful testimony, of why, we can trust God, for our future. You hit the nail on the head. He is not perfect, but he is perfect for you. Praise the Lord 😘

[@melissatamer9193]

It is evident that Nolan is a wonderful Godly man. Happy Birthday Nolan. Enjoy Alaska.

What an awesome love story. Nolan is indeed very special. We can see that thru your videos. My husband was also sent to me from God. It's such a secured feeling know he is of God. God gives us the best. Thank you for sharing. Love your sweet family.

[@theMennoniteMom]

Praise God!

[@kendramiller3529]

Thank you for your honesty about your weight. I have fibromyalgia and have gained lots of weight since diagnosed. It's a horrible feeling when you think you can't control it. You are beautiful and you have a wonderful family!

[@theMennoniteMom]

I'm so sorry. I know the desperate feeling. It can almost plunge you it a depression. Hang in there!

[@lindaschneidewind8164]

What an amazing testament to your husband & your love for him. You are both so blessed to have each other. Loved this chatty type video.

Many blessings for many more happy years of great health & new adventures together. Thank you for sharing & I feel like a friend. Happy birthday to your wonderful husband. My husband is my blessing as well. 🤗❤️🇨🇦

[@hcleaner]

Loved your story! So interesting. Our God is a wonderful matchmaker. ❤️

[@Shannon.Hazleton]

I loved this. I love your candidness. We have so much in common - I also prayed for confirmation about my husband and asked that he would send me flowers - which I immediately regretted and wondered WHY had I prayed that… because I was living and teaching in Louisiana and he was living and studying in China! But sure enough, not long afterwards, I came home from teaching one day and a box of roses was on my porch! I didn’t even own a vase 😅… so after my shock; I had to run down to the store to buy one and while stopped at a red light, I remember clear as day the Father impressed on my heart “I gave you what you asked for- so don’t doubt any more.” ♥️

[@theMennoniteMom]

That's amazing! What a loving God we serve!

[@sharonchandler5080]

Happy Birthday Nolan! Hope you all have a wonderful time in Alaska.

Happy Belated Birthday Nolan! It is a privilege to get peeks into your life like this. My husband and yours were cut from the same cloth. Despite my moodiness as I'm battling a intense RA flare plus have a summer cold, he takes care of me (and everything else) and tells me I'm beautiful. So glad to hear you're feeling better!

My dearest i have related to you since the beggining since ive watched you...however, when you mentioned the weight thing...i definitely felt in your shoes. Also....i have decided to go to a mennonite church this sunday for the first time. I am a jamaican christian and I run my own bible study etc online...however, the anabaptist mennonite community has been spiritually calling me for a few years and I am ready to embark with the strength of the lord. Blessins my sister.

[@lovinazimmerman8478]

Happy belated Birthday Nolan. I hope you had a wonderful time in Alaska . Janine, what a beautiful love story. I enjoy it so much when you share this part of your life. Yes, you are blessed with a wonderful husband n friend. My husband was always good about listening to me n he never deprived me of anything. But today I miss the conversations we used to have n us also traveling, unfortunately those no longer exist. With his dementia it hasn’t been like it once was. I do miss us talking n remembering this or that. I’m not complaining I’m thankful each day that God gives me another day with him. As our vowels were said for sickness n in health. Now I’m going down the bunny hole LOL. I could sit n listen to you all day. I can’t wait till your return from Alaska to share your memories n pictures. Your a beautiful person inside n out n I’m so happy I found your channel. Take care my friend n don’t be so hard on yourself. God’s Blessings to you n your wonderful family. ♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🎂🌟

[@theMennoniteMom]

Thank you! I'm sorry your husband has dementia. I can only imagine the trials that come with that and grief on your part as well. Good for you for loving him when through the hard times. Hugs!

Hello Mennonite Mom, Many thanks for sharing your beautiful true love story - one that can only be blessed and is blessed by Abba! But I confess that you do drive a real hard bargain with Abba, for you are not only satisfied with red roses but that you have to have not 1 but 2 dozen red roses! I am very happy for both you and Nolan, and a very Happy Birthday to Nolan today, and for marrying a most beautiful wife, both on the inside and outside. Just to say that Zander is the most blessed little boy to have the most loving parents ever! PTGL Amen Amen!

I o love to hear your story each time you tell it. I think it’s because you let God do the driving. You hit the nail on the head, when we date, it is saying we can see a future with that person.

[@annetteelder-clark505]

As a single Mom, I think I appreciate your marriage and the love you share almost as much as your family. I remember being in love and hope that someday I will be in love again. Until then I will wrap myself in God's love and celebrate other people's wonderful relationships. As things will ebb & flow thru the years, hope you will always be open to change but steadfast in your love for each other and for the Lord. My folks have been married for 59 years & are still growing and going strong. Wish that for you too. 🙂💜

[@theMennoniteMom]

I'm sorry you're a single mom. 😔 I can imagine how difficult that can be at times. Sending hugs your way!!

I am so glad that you fasted and prayed. If not, you may have missed out on not only a great man, but the RIGHT man! 😌 “Fasting and prayer can help develop within us courage and confidence.

[@allsaintsacademy9344]

You are such a beautiful lovely person... I love watching your vlogs, you give to truth to so many aspects of self and life. God Bless you and your marriage. Also if I might just say... please trust the view of your husband. Our bodies go through phases in life, women are under so much pressure to not accept the phases that perhaps God intends for us to endure. You need to trust the sight in the image to that your husband sees you as God does so see you. My late husband was always so good to me too in those phases of life... he always said to me, "I love the phases of your body because I get to experience you anew, and I know anew will always be constant" We must align our image of self with God's sight, perhaps when we accept this then we will start to reflect the imprint of self that we see as beautiful in his absolute. Much love and respect. You are a precious soul.

[@lindasmialek6341]

Happy Birthday Nolan and enjoy your trip!

[@jackiea3222]

You are such a sweetheart...I love your story. I too met my husband on a blind date on Friday the 13th and immediately had the same experience...the voice said...this is who you will marry.... His name is Jim, the only Jim I ever dated...and would you believe that playing house as a child my husband’s name was always Jim. We just celebrated our 50th in May. One more thing, you deserve each other because you are BOTH SO SPECIAL
