VLOG/ a parenting first- the emergency room

[@melaniepierce6827]

When you’re not sure what to say just your presence and service is probably the best thing you can give. Jobs “friends” best thing they did for him was sit in silence with him

[@esperanzamadrid5728]

I don’t know why seeing Alethea so grown up literally made me tear up 😩 just made me think how fast time went and how pretty soon that will be my little baby girl 😣😭

[@shannonm2005]

Milena, I can’t thank the lord and you enough for your content. I always say this but it adds context, I’m a very busy, full time working, single mom. I also have severe ADHD. It’s very hard for me after a 10 hour work day or on the weekends to stay on task or stay on the clock or not want to just rest the whole time and be idle. Your videos give me so much inspiration and support to help me to keep my home clean and feel so much worship towards the lord while I’m doing it. You help me to calibrate my skills as a mother and as a Christian and I just value what you provide so much. Watching your videos is equivalent to taking medication for me, if not better, because you are such a great role model and your thought processes on things help to shift my perspective and focus on what matters and why. I was raised by very abusive, dysfunctional people (no hate towards my parents they did the best they could with what they had and I don’t fault them) but learning to run a home, have a relationship with the Lord, or show gratitude was not something I was shown in life or instilled with as a child. I’m so grateful for the opportunities to see these things in action and learn how to apply them to my own life. Thank you, thank you, thank you. (From a fellow Michigander 🙋🏻‍♀️)🤍

[@anniegarate740]

My dog has just died about half an hour ago and watching your video has made me very calm and at peace ( also praying helped ) after crying quite a lot. Thank you for the light you are

[@madisonmclendon7191]

bless you sweet girl. still miss my Bawnie too (she looked like yours!) but thanking the Lord for sisters in Christ who encourage us.

[@sunshinegyal]

So glad your precious child is back home ♥️ Praise the Lord!

[@MilenaCiciotti]

thank you so much 🥺 YES praise the Lord!!!

[@KrystalNicole172]

I am LOVING this new style of videos. So authentic, pure, simple, and raw. KZbin needs more of this, the world needs more of this. Milena, keep this content up! 🫶🏼

[@camryngrabeal3453]

Just finished up watching ALL of your videos... I had hundreds to catch up on, haha!! Your videos are my favorite part of my week. Thank you for being such a light as a young mama. I have watched you since before you were married, and it has been so neat to watch the Lord grow and mature you! Praying for your sweet family.

[@luzarnebotha8763]

Ah its so beautiful to see you and Jordan so affectionate and playful with each other, God bless your marriage🤍

[@jmac4095]

Milena! Can you make a video on cooking for your family/ meal ideas? A year into marriage + new baby and struggling with not wanting to cook :(

[@MilenaCiciotti]

I plan on doing that + a grocery haul very soon ☺️

[@kayc34]

Emergencies with littles can be so scary! My baby is 2 months old and has already been to the ER 3 times 😩. But so thankful God is faithful and always takes care of His children! So glad your little is recovering!

[@thecozystitchco]

Hi Milena! May you please do a week in what you cook? I love your meals! 💖

[@isabellalacy9901]

Ahh Milena! Thank you for being such a light and an inspiration! I look up to you so much and I love how you teach your children to be good stewards of God’s kingdom. Ilysm and I hope you’re having an amazing day 💕

[@nancylain4981]

Not you and Aletha having matching claw clips I’m crying. She’s grown so much!!.

[@kiasfishies]

Love all your videos!! I would love to see your filming set up/ how you film in different locations and what you use type advice :)

[@destinyh122]

YES please to your updated grocery haul and meal planning!! ❤️

[@cierrawilliams-swartz1768]

Can you do an updated date night video? Ideas, schedules for kids that day, still every sunday, etc? My husband and I are in that stage now as our youngest is now a toddler and we want to incorporate more date nights.

[@alexismaewaterman]

Would love an updated grocery haul!! Also the clip of the family hug, Alethea wearing a claw clip looks just like you, how cute🥺🥺❤️

[@jarie9689]

Ok, video idea! Fridge tour video??? Including favorite products??

[@leiahbowling5798]

God is faithful! I love seeing his light shine though you! ❤

[@MilenaCiciotti]

He surely is- it's truly truly allllll Him 🤎

[@jenestes2099]

My youngest out of 5 my last child just turned 4 and today in the shower i found myself crying thinking of how life is constantly around time the clock time to wake up time to get the kids off to school time for this time for that don’t get me wrong I’m so grateful I just pray that time would slow down I feel like today time is flying by so very quickly my children are growing so fast before my eyes and with work life and so on I feel as if I’m missing so much 😢

[@prettyholisticmama]

Okay sold - I'm organizing my playroom today 😂 thanks for the inspo! Prayers for complete healing ❤ xx

[@marysmiles17]

Any recommendations for small homes lacking a playroom? My girls have a small cabinet that our tv sits on that contains their toys, and I stack a few books to the side. Our art space is our dining room table. Your play area is such a goal of mine!

[@mollysho9423]

Love that you talk about everything from God to momming to recipes! Great content!

[@haleymarlow9586]

Would you consider doing a video all about the things you’ve done differently sleep/ schedule wise with your third? I know you mentioned it in your stories but would love something in depth!

[@jade8107]

This content is everything I need and more! God bless you and your family 🥰😌

[@jesicanicole5218]

I know you don't like showing your kiddos so just letting you know that you can see your little girls when Jordan snaps his fingers for the grocery haul. Love you videos they help me be a better homemaker for my family and bring me so much closer to the Lord thank you

[@Katie-kf5pv]

Yes to the updated grocery/dinner videos!

[@baileynichols6531]

I am so in love with you and your family, Milena🤍🤍 thank you for showing us what godly motherhood is!

[@racheleschmidt]

Please do a grocery haul!! You make healthy eating so easy! I need all the tips 😅

[@spninja8]

Lots of love to you all Milena ❤ love your wholesome family 😊 take care.

[@cecilischermerhorn]

an updated what I eat in a week or meal plan would be so great! ideas are so hard to think of every week especially with keeping a strict budget

[@gavriellarayanne452]

Can you do an updated list of toys per age groups?? I’m a new mama & I’d love to be able to ask for Christmas gifts for an 8 Mo old 🫶🏼🤍

[@hayleymartinez8363]

Love your videos 🤍 I would love a video ok biblical boundaries! Specifically with families/ holidays with families with kids. I’m someone who tends to people please but I have such a hard time knowing if these boundaries and reasonable but mostly biblical. I would LOVE to know what you do and your perspective.

[@Christina_Sanchez1316Vlogs]

You are such a beautiful woman and you have a beautiful soul. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

[@MilenaCiciotti]

Thank you so much for your prayers 🤍

[@bjg972]

Love this type of vlog❤ Glad your baby is ok !!

[@carmenspiers7332]

Milena, you are so blessed to have a husband who helps carry the mental load. How have you gotten to this point in your relationship? The topic is such a strain for so many women. I’d love a podcast or something on that topic if you haven’t already.

[@kaarinamiller3999]

I remember them talking about it in podcasts in the past!!

[@laney7776]

Something about y'all living in the midwest (I am from Wisconsin) makes your videos feel so homey and familiar. Seeing the karigold butter in your fridge warms my heart! :)

[@liveinspired20]

Can you please share how you workout and what you eat to stay in shape after babies :)

[@HiimShailyn]

I love when you post. I always leave the video feeling so encouraged. I deleted social media outside of KZbin & Lemon8 and I got an embroidery kit to learn to keep myself off my phone. Thanks to you! I’m so excited about it😊 4:49

[@janegreer238]

Always love watching your videos! ❤ Hope you all are doing good!

[@MilenaCiciotti]

Thank you for being here, sister 🤎

[@goose7574]

Spray N Wash or Shout stain remover can be a great alternative for carpet/upholstery stains.

[@kamrinroybal3280]

I know it’s none of my business but are you going to share about the emergency room trip? I’m just wondering I guess I’m just nosy haha

[@payad4778]

Same… I thought that’s what the vlog was about.,. Based on the title and all 🙈

[@nancyfarkas3592]

I like that you didn't yell at your daughter for getting paint on the carpet. You talked to her calmly about it.

[@Meleannieliz]

Aw I’m so sorry. God bless you guys!

[@klb8559]

I never have more technical issues than when I’m trying to watch one of your videos. Wonder who’s trying to keep me from watching… 😑 Also, my cousin & I just finished up your Esther Study! We both also just finished The Bible Recap’s Chronological Bible Reading Plan, but your study allowed us to dive even deeper into the book. Thank you!

[@kikipereira4601]

You look the most beautiful without any makeup and your hair up in a messy bun

[@janvichetri745]

Prayers for the family

[@ambermum21]

Would LOVE a grocery/ meal video and thankful your little one is okay😊

[@mommyjaslynn]

My favorite KZbinr

[@jesusiskingofmyheart]

Love your videos! God bless you and your family Milena ♥

[@kirstenholsinger4623]

Can you do a video in your at home date night activities ☺️

[@janvichetri745]

Althea has grown up so much❤

[@gloriatrujillo5228]

Acetone for nail polish removes stains on carpets

[@paigemorris3214]

Love these videos. You’re one of the only people I watch anymore. Your videos make me more and more content being a home maker and motivated to keep prioritizing reading Gods word and teaching my kids about Jesus.

[@sydneyfoster8192]

Where is the organizer from that you store the toys in?

[@RandieArchuleta-zb8is]

I’m curious on who you listen to on podcasts?! I enjoy your videos and I can listen to you on repeat. Any other god followers and mommy duty podcasts you recommend?

[@kimbers1238]

It is so difficult knowing what to say. My sil miscarried and a friend had given her a book on the grief and she said i don't get it am i supposed to be upset? Ouch.

[@ohbrandyjune]

Can you link the recipe for the egg roll stir fry? I’m intrigued!

[@MilenaCiciotti]

it's in the description 😋

[@ohbrandyjune]

@@MilenaCiciotti thanks! I’m going to try it asap!! 😊

[@toriprice4752]

Is your family Catholic or Protestant/ non-denominational? Really curious about your church life if you don’t mind sharing! ❤

[@hugsforlove]

Love your videos❤

[@RJ-bj8ic]

💛💛💛💛💛

[@randimellies]

Is it just me or Milena doesn’t even mention the kids’ names anymore on top of never showing them? Of course she’s allowed to do whatever she wants but it’s just something I’ve noticed. It’s always “he, she, my oldest” etc. now!

[@Lionessshani]

Yes, she says she not trying to show their faces, but not saying their names is quite new for me. It is cool she's doing what's best for her and her family, but it does make it hard not knowing the names if someone is new to her channel. I hope this helps.

[@iamalexismarissa1209]

Are there Christian therapist’s on better help??

[@maraisreynolds9688]

0:30 to 0:57 and 21:40 is about the er trip

[@AHomesteadingHustle]

Milena this skirt is adorable!! Where can i find this?

[@yeskeslife1483]

I want to say she has it on her amazon storefront! I’d check there!☺️

[@MilenaCiciotti]

a similar one is linked in the description 🤎

Do you think Christmas trees come from pagan roots?

[@brittanymaloney2035]

Yes. Everything about Christmas, is Pagan.

[@snannismith]

❤

[@AlishaMorgan9]

No hate at all but how come you don’t show your children no more? Xx

[@alysiam3559]

Im sure it’s for privacy

[@lydiacollins9018]

She wants to protect their privacy since they are just children and don't consent to having their face and business spread over the internet

[@Lionessshani]

I know a few have answered, but she says she is not trying to show their faces, but not saying their names is quite new for me. It is cool she's doing what's best for her and her family, but it does make it hard not knowing the names if someone is new to her channel. I hope this helps.
