8:24 is my favorite "Buy ferns" (I think that's what she's saying), the way she tilts her head, smiles, and says it in that sweet tone. 8:19 is my second favorite "Mommy, I'm Fern". Jessa has caught so many amazing moments of her kids on tape. She is so lucky. If these videos are any indication, her kids are so well loved. They will have no problems making it in life. Love produces confidence & validation. We should all look to Jessa as an example. Jessa is a real mother.
