Family of 12 in NYC ❤️🗽Day in the Life 🤍 Sunday on our way to church 🙌🏼
Our journey to and from church on a beautiful spring morning in New York City. I also show a little bit of our morning before we go to church. I was making a product video and the kids had fun helping me. Melody was wearing her boots instead of her tennis shoes so her feet hurt and daddy carried her on the way home.❤️ #largefamilylife

This family gives me so much hope.
Such a beautiful family, really inspires me to be a mother and homeschool my kids, you seem to be such a good mother and all your kids look genuinely happy :)) Love from a catholic girl from Portugal!!

So Higgledy Piggledy! No sit down roast chicken Sunday lunch round the table with pudding after that long journey to Church and back. I do admire the parents, I would have a nervous breakdown with 10 children on the subway hoping I hadn't lost one, but thank goodness they are delightful well controlled children. I enjoy watching and full marks for creating. a happy talented family.

Haha thank you! One day we might have roast chicken 😅 bean burritos for now. It’s cheaper❤️
I would love to see some 1 on 1 question and answer sessions with the older kids. These kids are so smart and talented, I’m sure they would have some amazing thoughts to share.

Love the worship music 🎉
I teared up while "eavesdropping" on the sermon and worship. Such a beautiful family! Beautiful kids! Found you only today through a YT shorts clip. And agree, *so impressed* with Pearl for writing a paper while walking (a feat I find difficult even while sitting comfortably 😅) Just, wow!!! Subscribed! 😁
Beautiful family 💞
Love to see everyone wave at the camera. Reminds me of my youth when my dad took movie film of us, and he always told us to wave. The more things change, the more they stay the same it seems.

I’m just amazed, well, at everything you do, but I’m amazed that you can come from CA to New England, a huge weather change, and your tiny kids walk around like it’s no thing!!! I realize this was a perfect weather day, but you’ve done Christmas, too. Maybe you’ve had your meltdowns… but me and my kids would be dying! Maybe it’s because I’m from Utah and we’re used to dry everything… My husband worked in NY for a year and a half, and the weather for me was so hard. Everything was hard, but the weather was crazy. Y’all are awesome!

We got to Kings church NYC. It’s a little more traditional than a lot of the churches here so it’s a good fit.❤️
Every time I use public transportation I feel like I need to go home and take a shower! I definitely wash my clothes and only have washable coats and sweaters! I hope your kids use sanitizer throughout their day because there are so many germs. The platforms make me nervous there are so many people that fall off each year. They should have safety rails that stay up until the trains stop!
