I’m going back today and rewatching all the Aunt Linda videos you’ve posted and your parents videos. Such precious memories. Linda was an angel on earth and now in Heaven.

Ugh me too. I'm going back and rewatching all the vlogs that have aunt linda in them. Makes me so sad that she is gone

Goodbyes are hard for most, but Aunt Linda about broke my heart. I love how your parents are always so patient…like parents, to her. 💜

The thing that makes me the most sad is that Ruby's family is never there for the most important things. Those grandchildren are missing out on everything.

I love how you and your whole family love Aunt Linda! When Joel (Mark) softly said to Linda "bye sweetie", I just melted. You all are so tender and firm in your love for your sweet Aunt Linda! How wonderful!

Just rewatching this video again! Lincoln's request for breakfast i grew up having them called Whale's Eyes! OMG the kids are all so young looking - what a difference your mum and dad must have seen when they saw them all again in person.

I'm just binging all of Aunt Linda's videos ❤

The way your mother looks at Aunt Linda and treats her is truly precious and a testament to who she is. Your Dad as well but there is someone amazing about a mother’s understanding heart, to meet a person where they are at and for Aunt Linda that is 5 years old and that statement showed that your Moms heart was breaking at the thought of leaving a 5 year old Linda. I can’t wait to see the reunion video!!!!

I love re watching this. So loving and sweet on SO MANY levels!!! My heart just swells knowing that I got to know her, only if by video!

Bonnie, I think we should all send Aunt Linda a post card from where we’re at and a little note. It could be something we could do to help keep her busy while you’re parents are gone. Such a sweet video💕

It's these family gatherings that I love the most. It's so sad that ALL the grown kids are not there. It really breaks my heart.

I have a brother with special needs and he is my older brother but he depends on us like he is 7. I cry every time I go on a trip when I leave him behind even for a week. I can’t imagine 2 years. I love your parents, aunt Linda and your whole family! So beautiful 😍

Oh my heart aches for Aunt Linda, but she's going to be well looked after 🤗💙🙏.

You have such a wonderful family. You can just feel the love through the screen. Thank you for sharing your life with us! ❤

What a sweet family vlog today! So sweet seeing all the cousins singing together and family time with Aunt Linda❤️❤️

This was a very heartfelt vlog! I got super teary-eyed! I felt like I was saying goodbye to one of my family members! I know you all will take very good care of Aunt Linda and have awesome memories with her while your mom and dad are gone on their mission! 💜

had to prepare myself to come watch this, ive been so emotional lately having to find a new home. i knew i was gonna CRY like a baby watching you guys say goodbye.

We called them toad in a hole. Or eggs in a basket. It is so sweet to see how aunt Linda was saying about to your parents I even got teary-eyed over that

What a fantastic family going away get together for Bonnie's parents..2 years away from the family is a long time. I absolutely love your aunt Linda, she is so sweet. This was a wonderful get together for everyone. 💖🥰

I cried like a baby watching aunt Linda saying goodbye. Such a sweet moment! I'm glad you guys record those moments, they are very special!

Bonnie I never comment, but I am a longtime viewer. I absolutely adore your mom and dad. What a legacy they have created. Thank you for sharing these tender moments with us. I will continue to lift your parents up in prayer as they prepare and leave for their mission. Good and faithful servants of the Lord. That is who they are. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

May this time apart be blessed with health and sweet memories to keep the spirit alive. ❤️ It’s sad not to see the Franke kids with their cousins. Best wishes to Chad and Jennifer on their mission!

Living only 3 hours away..i thought of coming to the farewell...as I love your family so much..and I have tender heart for missionary work..with a boy preparing for a mission as we speak..but I know that it is also sacred family time and I am so grateful that you guys chose to share it. I love the song the grands sang also...Love from Burley Idaho!!

Bonnie this vlog made me want to hug every single one of you! 💜

🌸One of the sweetest video’s. Sending hugs prayers and kindness with lots of smiles.👍🏼💗🙏🏼🌸 We love you Aunt Linda!

I love how your mom & dad just adore aunt Linda makes my heart happy

I love Aunt Linda, this video brought me so many emotions, I love how pure hearted the whole family is and how real the videos are, reminds me of my family and how lucky I am, goodbyes are not easy at any age but Aunt Linda held it together so well 💖

This is so sweet. I hate goodbyes but it’s sweet to see your family love so hard. That song is also the most tender. My uncle wrote it and it has a special place in my heart 💜

The tear’s 🥰 such a beautiful family I love when all of you get together ❤️❤️ wish you mom and dad the best on there trip and safe travels ❤️

Whenever there is something emotional with Aunt Linda I start to cry. This isn’t even my family and I could feel these strong emotions of love.

That was so sad for Linda and your parents. To her two years will seem like a lifetime. Thanks Bonnie for taking over loving and caring for her.

The way you share and explain your faith is so encouraging. Aunt Linda is so very fortunate to be in such a beautiful family. Your parents are awesome folks❤️. I don’t know why I’m so sad that they are leaving when as a subscriber I technically get to go with them….lol. Continued blessings.

This was a touching video, I love Aunt Linda as I have said before you know your going to have one good laugh.. (the present part was the laugh)

We called those toast and egg concoctions, “eggs in a basket,” or “shipwrecked eggs.” I loved the love expressed in the way Aunt Linda said her goodbyes while your parents go on their mission. So sweet. Thank you for sharing these moments with us!

A lovely Video Bonnie. Sad but lovely. Cannot help but imagine the weight of responsibility you kids are feeling right now, praying to keep Aunt Linda safe and well over the next two years.

Although it’s sad seeing your parents go on a mission for two years, you will see them again. I also know it’s sad with all that’s going on between 8 passengers and the rest of your family. We are all think of you ❤️

Aunt Linda, God bless her Bonnie, she's so lucky to have a loving family like all of you. Excited about your parent's adventure!! And of course your new build!!❤🇨🇮😘🙏❤️

That was so touching to watch them say goodbye to Aunty Linda . I have such a soft spot for her.💖💕💋

Love Lincolns singing ❤️ Seeing your family come together for your parents mission trip is absolutely beautiful ❤️

Goosebump’s and teary eyed over here 🥹❤️

This was a pretty emotional vlog. I just adore Aunt Linda, and I cried at their goodbye. It’s also very sad that some are missing. Thanks for sharing guys. So much love!

What a special vlog. Your parents are so blessed with so many grandchildren. Thanks for sharing.

Goodmorning Hollien family wow those shoes are so cute.Awww this is so emotional it made me cry when Aunt Linda is saying goodbye.I always love these family get together volgs .These are the beautiful and precious memories. ❤️❤️

What a wonderful video to watch. All of y'all are so precious of a family.......

Love how you all take care of your Aunt Linda! Goodbyes are hard we aren't guaranteed tommorow.

That was so sweet man. That farewell just turned up my tear taps.

I can’t stop the tears Love you all so much

What a very touching video. I feel like I know all of you guys personally.All of you are such a dear,caring family.

Such a wonderful video! I love your family dynamic. So much love in this video. So special ❤️

This is wonderful, Bonnie!😊💙💙💙💙💙💙👍. Your parents are so incredible to you with love, strength and happiness.💙🌈🌷💖👍

I love what a fun mom you are Bonnie! Jumping on the trampoline with the kids!! They will always remember that. I loved when my mom did stuff with me when I was a kid!

Loved the Vlog I love Aunt Linda so much I’m going to miss grandma and grandpa so much I’m crying like a baby

Goodness I had tears in my eyes up until Aunt Linda’s “presents” comment and then I laughed with you. She is such a joy. I know yall will take excellent care of her.

This reminded me of the 2 times that I had to say goodbye to my grandparents when they served 2 missions 1991-1993 and 1996-1998. I still have all the letters they wrote me while on there missions in a box I read them at least 3-4 times a year. Seeing Bonnie and Grandma Griffiths crying got to me at the end.

My heart aches for Linda and you all. I know how tough this will be but also can’t seem to help think about the what ifs while their gone and what could happen and how sad it would make me to think that would’ve been their final goodbye. Praying nothing bad happens while they are gone and in 2 years time you all can have a very happy reunion !

I love how Linda made sure to get in how she wants her gift 😂😂

Oh, Bonnie!! Thank you for sharing! It was good to watch all the family! Wish Ruby and her family had been there. They were the only ones missing. It was good to see Beau and Emily . Their kids are getting so big!! Take care. ♥️

Sweetest video ever! Such a loving family💟

I cried watching Aunt Linda say goodbye to your parents. So much love ❤️ I cry at mission farewells too 🫂

Watching aunt Linda say goodbye bye made me cry like a baby I feel for her I know it must be hard but she's in good hands for the next 2 years with Bonnie and all the kinds

I was crying 😢 not because it was sad but because y’all are such great family to see. Watching all of you for so many years most of us feel like we are part of the family in some way.

I look forward to your videos, as well as your parents and siblings videos. You guys are one amazing family🥰🥰

I don't cry at videos but this made me cry. You have such a lovely family

Heaeing the kids singing was so precious. My heart hurts for Aunt Linda although I know she'll be in good hands. Sending love from Wilsonville Oregon

Rewatching, because it came up in my feed today. I just wanted to say that I miss these kinds of vlogs. ❤️

I love aunt Linda and how sweet your parents are with her. I'll pray she has an easy time with your parents mission. It always cracks me up how she calls Joel Mark and everyone else does to her. I'm actually going to miss your backyard when you move, it's so perfect. Lincoln grew up so much, I always think of him as the baby and watching him singing with all his cousins he looked like one of the big boys.

I loved hearing the kids sing 🥰

seeing julies little baby in your shoes was the cutest, they were in such good condition too !! looking back at the picture of you when you were a baby, those shoes were a spotlight lol

I sobbed. Love your family.

I am seeing you and your sisters videos lately. I feel like they are going to fill the gap when your parents are on their mission. Please keep making them. I will enjoy seeing your family grow. 💜😊

Enjoy those beautiful moments with your children playing together outside. Mine are all grown up, and it makes me smile as well as a little sad watching your beautiful family together. Wanting those moments with mine again so badly ❤️

This was so sweet ♥️

I have a hard time saying good by to my family after visits. It’s not easy for anyone so I can only imagine how aunt Linda feels. I stared to cry watching up you all saying good by , I’m sure your parents are greatly appreciated that they can count on you all to look after her while they are gone. Bonnie you have a beautiful loving family . I’m sure we will be seeing Aunt Linda soon. 🙏❤️

Such a sweet video!! Love your family values ❤️

Bonnie and Joel your children are precious! You have a beautiful famy💕

Knowing that they might not see Linda again makes me so sad but seeing the family wave goodbye makes me think of the family waiting to wave hello from the other side …. Even more tears. What a beautiful family.

Oh my this broke my heart

I cried watching such a nice goodbye. Safe travels on your mission. On a side note I think Lincoln looks like a young Chad.

I love all of you guys so much and I hope that you are all having a wonderful day today ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Aunt Linda has such a beautiful spirt. Her capacity to love is endless ♥️ 💓 ❤️ she will be well cared for by you guys 💗💗💗 your parents are such wonderful examples on how to care for someone who has developmental disabilities. She is always given grace, dignity and safe independence ❤️

Bonnie you are going to do such a wonderful job taking care of Aunt Linda. I love your big heart ❤️

Such a wonderful moment and for Grandpa & Grandma Griffiths you both are good souls God will definitely Bless your journey. 😍

Hi Bonnie Joel family...,, from England this was a sad but happy also.aunt Linda is such a sweetheart..you are a amazing family xx👍💕🌞🌞🌞

I really liked what your mom said about aunt Linda. I love your family for the way you are treating aunt Linda ..I am a mother of a child with ADHD and I know who much love they need from the family ... your parents are gem ..lastly your expressions looked so much like Elliee in last 5 mins of vlog .we love your family it's a stress buster for me on some hard days

Growing up a good friend of mine actually had an Aunt Linda that was mentally challenged she thought I was an extra Affair child I laugh about it now she passed away when I was 32 and I'm 65 now she was so special she loved everybody and she loved her presents so every time I see Aunt Linda on your video it reminds me of her thank you I'd really loved her. God bless you guys and love you

This was bittersweet❤️ I have never been with out my parents for years only for maybe a few weeks but I hope they do okay where there going.

Crying like a baby! Bless Aunt Linda and your parents!

Such love - what a wonderful family
