I have never experienced/felt the gift of true friendship. I, too, am a mother of 4, but different, as I am divorced. I have raised all my children completely alone and without support, much less family or the help of their father. Although I have a giving nature, I find it often taken advantage of. Seeing this video made me feel terribly lonely and a little sad, but also hopeful that I can experience this one day. No one should have to go through life as I have had to, but I'm incredibly thankful for the love of my children. Everyone deserves a friend. Try to be one if you can.

I notice so many comments that express envy about Ellen's life --- you CAN create your dream life too! We all come from different circumstances, but I think it's pretty clear that Ellen has worked hard to have the life that she has, friendships included!

@daphnelattimer9952

I'm so thankful for you comment! Much like Ellen, I've worked hard in my own right. If you look at the sacrifices that mothers and women from different circumstances, as you call them, have had to make, you would be blown away at their level of hard work. If you stepped out of your comfort and into their world, you would admire them too and possibly even more. Idea: Maybe you could help another mother create her dream life under her own circumstances if she's not working hard enough in your eyes. If you could stand up for Ellen's success, what's preventing you from helping another woman or other women? It would be much better received as opposed to implying they are not working hard enough. Be a friend if you can...or if you dare. Step into the mess or stand in the gap for another woman. I think you may find we ALL work hard and are worth admiration.

No, not everyone is born with the same skill set, even social skills. I don't have friends from high school because my family moved in 8th grade. I was from a lower income bracket than everyone else and no one accepted me. Plus I was a little weird, not gonna lie. Nothing crazy, but didn't quite fit in. My friends from elementary school drifted away. So how will I ever have friends from high school? I'm in my 30s now. You can't create something that isn't there.

While I know no is perfect,Andrew seems like such a blessing from God when it comes to being a dad and a husband.

Oh my goodness we can leave comments? When did this become a thing on your channel!? Yay! I love your videos and been watching for years. Love the way you edit and it definitely inspires me! I want to homeschool my daughter too and would love to see more videos when you can! Also loving the podcast!!! God bless you and your family 🙏

I loved every bit of this video, nothing but pure joy and happiness. Even though I am watching this at 12:00 am, this video has really brightened my day. I love when women/moms can get together, enjoy life and be free!!! ❤️

Wow I am so glad we can talk about your videos. Congratulations Ellen on inspiring everyone, and your hard work! Hope you had a wonderful visit with friends, that is so special.

Gosh I pray for a group of friends like this! This vlog was great it was like a mix of the show working moms and friends lol idk that’s just the vibe I got.

Now I can see what one living their best life means...treasure the moments as they are precious... wishing I didn't have my social anxiety disorder more than ever after watching this!

I literally was transported back to high! So crazy I miss the fun times! I know you and I only hung out here and there but keslie and Sabrina were my besties in high school and seeing them so happy and just living life just melted my heart! I’m glad you ladies got to have a week together, I enjoyed watching all the laughs and smiles ❤️

@@stitches318 you are right. I changed the comment just in case it could affect her. I think she has shared many times she is from Cali, and has shared when she is visiting her hometown with specific places. The high school we went to was actually not located close to most the kids that went to the school. It was a private school so many kids drove far to go there. But just to be safe I deleted it. I would never want to be responsible for something bad happening to her family or cause such things.

Sabrina you’re so pretty! All your friends are! I relate to the calmness of Sabrina.

Thank you for the video Ellen, it looked amazing! I would love to visit Hawaii and Maui one day! :) and to anyone who feels lonely when watching this video, PLEASE take in account that this is a business for KZreadrs to show off their life from mostly the good sides and this is not a true representation of a life. Even if Ellen has these friends and a supportive partner, we as an audience has no idea of what goes on behind closed doors. I found that when I used Instagram less for example, that I stopped being as jealous of others cause I gave more time to my own life instead of watching someone else's. All the strength to the single parents out there (my mother raised me and my brothers all by herself), you are strong and loved!
