This topic of shaming and comparison is relevant to everyone, not just mom's so it is a great choice of topic. The Deuteronomy passage makes me think of the times people in our lives point out God at work in the moments we are living. For instance, it was common, at one time for a friend to say, when something you needed was given at just the right time, "Do you see how God provided for us here?" or when out for a walk, "Look at those flowers! God's creation is so beautiful". In all circumstances it was normal to bring God into the conversation.

38:15 this was so great to listen in on! A note though: your husbands aren't babysitting, they're parenting. It's wonderful having equal partners who are loving and involved parents :)

Your cousin is very beautiful and down to earth. Would love to see more of her in videos.

Bring Jayne back! She gave a great perspective to Mom shaming!

Please continue with this platform. Young ladies as well as the older generation need to hear how we can hold to our modesty upbringing and not conform to worldly shaming. As a grandmother and mother to four children, I believe in mothers being homemakers. I know it is not choice for many but working mothers need encouragement as well. Again, thank you for this episode and best wishes on the future videos.

Megan, your cousin’s humility is beautiful. You can tell she is anointed by God. Thanks for bringing her on, this was a great idea!

I love Jayna’s comment about choosing to take her advice from the moms that she can see are doing something that works/ how the parenting tips they recommend pan out for them in everyday life. And basically that you don’t have to be perfect to be a good mom.

I am a retired labor/delivery nurse. What that nurse told you was completely unprofessional & out of line. No way should she have even brought that up to you. She couldve been fired for that.

Yessss! Super pumped about this! What a blessing this is for many Mommas like myself! Thank you for doing this! Can’t wait for more!!!!

Loved “honey I’m homemaker” ! can’t wait for the next one! And my super power is encouraging exploration in my kids worlds and imaginations !

I'm not even halfway through and I already love the idea of turning it into series!!! ❤️

I really enjoyed listening to the chat. Jayna seems like a wonderful person.

Loved the chat and I am a grandma raising 4 precious grandchildren ages 6,8, 10 and 11. I feel that prick of needing to be consistent everyday. I love how down to earth you both are.

Being good at apologizing is SUCH a blessing! I agree, it’s the best way to teach our kiddos what repentance looks like and how to offer forgiveness etc. Mom of 2 boys ages 6 and 4 here too-I’m inspired to go play with them more. On that note…I’m off to play! 💖

I love this video so much!! Jayna is such a sweet lady! Please feel free to do more of these!!

I love this mom chat, and I see the benefit of these conversations here. Thank you! Keep them coming!

Ooh! Honey, I’m homemaker is a great idea! I loved the first ‘episode’ ♥️

@@Codababy lease don't feel that way as I'm sure you are creative, everyone I believe is maybe just in different ways. Creative can show in how you play a game, cook, play with children, organize your life, help others, craft, the way you explain things, time management, so so many other ways that we are all creative. Creative has many many definitions. Enjoy your day!

I love this mom chat idea! Your cousin was so much fun. I do hope you continue them.

What a fun, witty title for this new venture. I enjoyed coming along for this mom-chat!

SUCH a lovely visit! Enjoyed visiting with you both and looking forward to more!

Please please please continue to do this as a series. So uplifting and encouraging after a rough week where I feel I’ve fallen so short as a Mama. Thank you 💕

This is so awesome 🤩. Even for a grandma like myself! It’s nice to see some wholesome young mom content in this ever crazy world!

I’m currently in Lancaster for a singing gig and all I can think is MEGAN LIVES HERE!! ❤️ Thanks for your intentional content! My mother superpower is communication

Loved this chat with you and Jayna! ❤️

Aw, this was such a wonderful video! I loved getting to know Jayna! And what a pretty name! She has a very sweet spirit, like you, Megan. I hope you all do lots more of these episodes. When you were talking about comparison and being shamed over not being a better mom, etc., it made me think of my friend who is feeling such guilt over not having done all she feels she should have through the years in mentoring her children, teaching them about the Lord, etc. I reminded her that more lessons are caught than taught, and all these years she HAS been mentoring them by living out a Christian life in front of them, mistakes and all. Our kids need to see that we fail, and they need to see how we handle those failures. Having to go back and tell them we are sorry keeps us humble. I have had to apologize to our dear son countless times through the years, and all those moments have been live demonstrations of what the grace of God is all about and has strengthened our bond and relationship. God is so faithful to redeem all of our blunders and mistakes and make it all work together for not only our good but the good of our children, too. Keep up the great work, you two! And may God bless you both and your families!

Please keep this going! Love this! I'm a homemaker also. . . . + homeschool mom, youth leader . . . so much more! It's good to hear other lady about the same place talk life & keep God first!

Very excited for more of this! Enjoyed combing through things I do, that I could consider my mom superpower. 😊

So fun listening to this! When Jayna started talking about her business making robes it made me realize I had bought one for myself a few years ago and one for my mom last Mother’s Day! So sweet to put a face and personality to the person who made the robe I wear often!

This was needed on so many levels! That you both for being so genuine. I have 4 boys and completely understand the situation your cousin was talking about 😅

I also have a son around your cousins sons age so I can TOTALLY relate!! 💙💙 On the "giving in for extra food or giving in, in general"

Yes, do more of these. Loved these sit down conversations with Jaina. ☺️

This was so fun! Loved Jayne (her jumper was so cute!) and the fun chatting style of the video. I felt like i was having an afternoon with two friends. Mom super power is probably doing fun outings and things with my kids. I love taking them places and exploring new experiences with them!

I absolutely enjoyed this video, I hope it will become a regular feature!!

I’ve been watching your channel for a long time now, I’m from the UK, I’m a Christian but I’m not a Mum and so while I can’t relate to your motherhood experiences so much of this chat resonated with me anyway! I really enjoyed this and felt so much like a conversation I might have with friends! Thanks Megan and Jayna for sharing and exemplifying your Christianity.

This was very encouraging! would definitely love to have more of these mom chats!

Loved this thank you for your cousin for coming on!

I really enjoyed seeing you two together! It was very fun to watch! Great idea! I look forward to more!! 😁

Love having another perspective! Great conversation!

I love the " living out the Gospel" !!!! Looking forward to the next one!

Id say the biggest superpower for parents/couples is apologize to each other and the kids if it happened in front of someone make sure they see or tell them that you apologized.

Loved the Holy Spirit v mum shaming comparison. You put something so easily felt, so easily remedied. It touched me so much that I had to replay and write it down!

Loved it! Jayna’s personality is so much like yours. Bubbly & fun. You go girls!

My super power is to include humor in our family life.

Would love to see you continue this!!!! Your videos and this is such an inspiration!!!! I’m also a stay at home Mennonite mom that struggles with all of this!!! And would love to see moms or people in general lift each other up!!!!!

I loved this podcast, talk, whatever you call it between you and your cousin! She is so sweet! It was fun and interesting listening to both of you! Looking forward to the next one!

This should totally be a series!!

Loved it and I’m not even a mom!!! Please turn it into a podcast! Your cousin was so lovely!

Very much enjoyed your chat. It was very fun and enlightening. We can all be great moms or nana, in those seasons of life. I'm in nana season. I love learning from you and other precious women of faith.

Please bring Jayna back. I loved watching the two of you together.

Such a wonderful video. A true blessing!! Thank you for including your cousin. She was such an encouragement. Apologizing as a super power- fantastic. It reminded me of what I passed on to our boys, modeling repentance. Blessings to you both.

This “podcast” or whatever you’d like to call it was very encouraging. I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to see y’all get even more comfortable and dive into more topics ❤

I love this! 💛 One thing I appreciated about the conversation on strengths is how some of those things could be seen as weaknesses but if you switch the perspective, it can be your strength. Sometimes I feel like I apologize too much but that can actually be a good thing if I'm doing it from a place of intentional humility. I loved this video!

Megan, it is so funny that you talk about the things people are able to get done during the week and that it “pricks” you, but that is how I feel about you! I feel like you are able to get so much done during the day and I have been reevaluating my life to see how I can do more around the house while still with my daughter.

I loved this! 😍 I felt the way Jayna did with my C-sections, I felt that I had failed and had to come to the realization that I was so grateful to have babies now a days where medical intervention would allow my babies to arrive safely!!! God's plan was the absolute best for me and my children! I appreciate her willingness to be so open and honest!

I love this! How fun! Can’t wait for the next one.

I LOVED IT!!! OH YEAH! I've been wanting to see a conversation with you and other Mennonite moms for a long while now. Do MORE!! Your cousin is very sweet and super authentic like you are Megan. All I ask is that you turn the title sign horizontal. My OCD was flaring like crazy! Lol!

I think this was the most edifying video you’ve made. Love it!

Loved this! Looking forward to seeing more of Jayna with you🤍

Oh my!!! I had so much fun watching it!!! Thank y’all to bring so much joy to my cleaning afternoon

Absolutely loved this! Hope to see more in the future!

What a lovely conversation between two lovely cousins. How blessed to have such sweet family live near you.

I loved this! I can not wait for more of these! Your cousin is just as sweet and beautiful as you!!

I absolutely loved this!!!!! Y’all have got to keep this up🤍🤍

I LOVED this! I’m a Christian mom with three little ones and I related soooo much to this! I had a c-section with my first who was breeched and also had a miscarriage in 2021, then had my third kid last year… I also help my husband with his business, so I’m a busy mom trying to navigate and raise my children for The Lord in these crazy times! Loved the relatable chat and the encouragement! ❤️

Love this. Looking forward to more videos like this in the future!

I can so relate to Jayna! I have boys and the neighbors are quick to let me know there opinion and while I wanna be respectful to there concerns I also don’t wanna wrap them in a bubble. It really matters the tone and the way a person confronts the issue.

I enjoyed this! Megan I like how you say to your kids that they can do “one more fun thing” before you leave. I think the sounds much nicer than reminding them that they have only 5 minutes left. Especially if they don’t have a concept of time. I love hearing how other moms parent. We learn from each other and we can take one or two things from everyone I think. I’m interested to hear what it was like for someone to be adopted into a Mennonite family. Sounds like an interesting story if your cousin is willing to share. Good luck with this new series.

I love this! I've always wished you had a podcast since you are interesting to listen to! I hope you continue this series!

Loved this! Hope y’all collaborate again. Thanks for providing solid, uplifting content. 😊

I loved this episode so much! Great conversation! Laughed a lot!

Best video! Cousins Conversation was beautiful. Sharing stories of concerns and successes are how we learn. A suggestion to a fair way to help someone is to ask how they could do better now or next time. As you say - Tomorrow is a new day! God Bless❤️

I was just able to watch this all the way through and it really resonated with me. I'm so excited to catch up on the series. My mom superpower would be giving my undivided attention to my kids.

Oh Jayna so sorry you were shamed....i had 4 c sections! Bless your heart!. You two look so much a like..boys are definitely active...you're a good mom!

You ladies are adorable. My two children are 17 and 19 so I'm at a different place. I'm enjoying spending more quality time/chats with them, helping them prepare for adulthood. It's wonderful to see how intentional you ladies are. I really didn't think of all these things when I was a young mom. My son was a bit of a toddler terrorist and I was just trying to survive...lol. My daughter was born 23 months later so I had my hands full. Sometimes I think we should have kids in our 50's. We know more and have more patience! Anyway, just loved this segment. I hope it continues. I still learn things. Blessings to you both! 😀

Megan what a great idea to have your cousin on ...im from the south and we dont talk that fast down here ....so when you are excited i can hardly keep up !🤪

I'm not on Instagram or fb. I used to be, but I feel much better without it. Not that I think social media is bad, but for me, I feel better without it.

Really enjoyed this! Hope you can do more! This is how I know the meals of the day to go.... Breakfast, brunch, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, supper, and midnight snack. Doesn't mean that you have to eat all the meals but that's the order I'm familiar with.

You ladies are so sweet and I completely agree with everything you discussed. I'm originally from York, PA so I grew up around your culture although I wasn't part of it. I'd like to think of us as great friends if I ever lived there again. I'd love to see you guys more. I just enjoyed listening to you two chat as I worked today. My husband always brags on how smart our daughter is and then brags on me and how awesome of a mom I am because I spend a lot of time with them and explain things to them so they understand. It's helped them to learn so quickly and see more of the world around them. They are especially curious about animals and nature right now which has been so fun. And I'm learning too because they ask me things I don't really know much about.

This was a fun video. I liked the discussion about shaming vs. convicting.

I love this chatty format! It reminds me of Dawn the Minimal Mom's videos with her sister Diana - we need these positive examples of female friendship, as well as the encouragement you give.

This is so fun ! Loved listening to you two ❤️

You two are just like sisters ❤️ sweetest conversation!

I actually enjoyed this talk very much!! I will be here waiting for the next mom talk🌷🌸🌹🙏🏼

Currently battling hyperemisis graviderum with my 2nd pregnancy and so I listen to alot of podcasts to pass the time but most aren't believers or uplifting content so I loved this chat! Honestly would watch it as often as you post it!! KZread needs more family podcast style videos.

I’ve enjoyed this chat time so much. Thank you. It’s “dinner” in our home. When you go to a restaurant, you get a dinner menu, not a supper menu.😁

I can SO relate to your comment about being scared of having a distant or nonexistent relationship with your kids when they’re grown. That’s something that is on my mind a lot as I decide what things to make time for in a day/ week. It has also influenced the decisions I make regarding family size and spacing between kids.

Love it 🥰 Can’t wait for the next one and would love to hear more about the adoption! I am one of those too! God bless both of you as you continue living for Him and nurturing your little “lambs” for Him 💕

I just love you two!! I live in central Kentucky and we say “dinner” for lunch and “supper” for …. supper. 😂

Adorable! You girls are so sweet. I’m 67 and I have 2 daughters in-law that are so much like you. Thank you for being so open about your faith. How do people survive the world we are in today if they do not know the Lord. Love from Tennessee.
