S3 E23: Who Knew Easter Could Be This Messy?

Did your Easter look more like chaos and chocolate-fueled meltdowns than a curated Instagram post? Good,you're in the right place.

We’re talking missed church, egg fights, and one mom wondering if ungrateful kids are part of the resurrection story. Meanwhile, influencers are out here staging gender reveals like it's the Oscars.

Then, 20-year-old Reese hops on with wisdom that’ll make you question your whole parenting strategy, in a good way. Her secret? Less control, more trust, and remembering that none of us has it figured out.

Moral of the story? It’s not that deep. Your kids don’t need perfect, they just need you.

00:00:24.701 --> 00:00:25.323
Welcome to Jerking Around.

00:00:25.323 --> 00:00:26.125

There's a mischievous.

00:00:27.027 --> 00:00:28.028
What's happening, melissa.

00:00:28.028 --> 00:00:29.071
It's something's weird.

00:00:29.071 --> 00:00:32.307
I know I was too busy jerking around to get set.

00:00:32.307 --> 00:00:34.404
Oh, the hairs are driving me crazy.

00:00:34.404 --> 00:00:35.328
I'm shedding so bad.

00:00:35.328 --> 00:00:36.841
My hair is so thin.

00:00:36.841 --> 00:00:39.046
Now we can talk about Easter, remember.

00:00:39.067 --> 00:00:40.331
Yeah, we did want to talk about that.

00:00:40.350 --> 00:00:42.973
Tell about your bad day I will I like your when you do that.

00:00:43.154 --> 00:00:45.314
I know I like when you just tell about your shitty life.

00:00:45.314 --> 00:00:46.895
You know cool.

00:00:53.356 --> 00:01:09.609
I wonder if, when people are listening see, it's great we have Reese here because she does listen, yeah, and it's like if they're just like she's in love with her, because, like when you're, when you're talking, I'm all and you're like the car's blue and I'm like, well then, I have a false sense of how funny I am.

00:01:10.072 --> 00:01:14.243
I'm going to hollywood next week, guys, because you've like inflated my ego.

00:01:14.243 --> 00:01:15.227
I think that's how you went.

00:01:15.227 --> 00:01:16.831
Well, I'm like no one's as funny as me.

00:01:16.831 --> 00:01:22.100
I just have you laughing at me constantly and like there's people way funnier, but like I don't think there is.

00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:24.245
You're so funny, yeah, so many people have said that to me.

00:01:24.245 --> 00:01:26.689
They're like I just laugh at the way you laugh at her.

00:01:26.689 --> 00:01:27.411
Yeah, and I'm all.

00:01:27.411 --> 00:01:32.010
Oh, no, I'm like I'm so funny and it's because of you I'm not.

00:01:32.010 --> 00:01:33.938
I do think you're so funny, thank you.

00:01:33.938 --> 00:01:36.623
Many people would agree yeah, I don't think it's like a false.

00:01:36.623 --> 00:01:38.325
That means a lot.

00:01:38.325 --> 00:01:40.468
Yeah, but I do think you're so funny, yeah.

00:01:40.748 --> 00:01:45.200
I do feel like it's giving me a false you know like, yeah, like you can, you made me think I could.

00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:47.546
Yeah, like I might have my own comedy show soon.

00:01:47.546 --> 00:01:50.721
I don't know, you wanted to, I did, but okay, let's dive in.

00:01:50.822 --> 00:01:52.045
Okay, welcome to jerking around.

00:01:52.045 --> 00:01:54.209
This is a real start, okay.

00:01:54.209 --> 00:01:57.962
So, brooke Raybird, oh, shoot, is that how I say?

00:01:58.024 --> 00:01:58.465
your name?

00:01:58.465 --> 00:01:58.924
I?

00:01:58.924 --> 00:02:01.010
I don't think so, but it's shutter baby.

00:02:01.010 --> 00:02:03.194
Yeah, and you cried.

00:02:03.320 --> 00:02:04.106
I got it's with the gender reveal, okay.

00:02:04.106 --> 00:02:05.659
So question yeah, and you cried, I cried With the gender reveal.

00:02:05.659 --> 00:02:05.980
Okay.

00:02:05.980 --> 00:02:07.207
So question for you, because I did want.

00:02:07.207 --> 00:02:09.379
Did you see I sent you one, did I send you a two?

00:02:09.379 --> 00:02:10.586
I watched the gender reveal.

00:02:10.586 --> 00:02:11.701
Did you see the?

00:02:11.701 --> 00:02:12.945
Did you see the nursery?

00:02:12.945 --> 00:02:15.801
No, okay, so she.

00:02:15.801 --> 00:02:19.230
So they didn't find out the gender Right and she had a boy.

00:02:19.230 --> 00:02:26.221
So, guys, we've talked about her.

00:02:26.221 --> 00:02:26.823
Four boys, one girl, remember.

00:02:26.823 --> 00:02:27.283
So it's mama five boys.

00:02:27.283 --> 00:02:28.366
She has her, her tagline ready.

00:02:28.366 --> 00:02:29.087
Yeah, mama, five boys.

00:02:29.087 --> 00:02:34.227
But, um, they showed her nursery is in her house and she wasn't allowed to see it and the lady, the designer, knew the sex.

00:02:34.227 --> 00:02:36.853
So, like they designed, it for the boy.

00:02:36.973 --> 00:02:42.604
But like when the cameras aren't rolling, you're 100% peaking at the nursery yeah, I was like there's no way on the planet.

00:02:42.574 --> 00:02:43.296
I'm not peeking at the nursery.

00:02:43.296 --> 00:02:43.556
No way on the planet, do you?

00:02:43.556 --> 00:02:44.455
I was like there's no way on the planet.

00:02:44.423 --> 00:02:45.228
I'm not peeking at the nursery to know what I'm having?

00:02:45.197 --> 00:02:45.391
No way on the planet.

00:02:45.391 --> 00:02:49.752
Do you think it was like we're not telling the world what we're having?

00:02:49.752 --> 00:02:53.830
But she did take a minute after she found out before she would post about it.

00:02:53.830 --> 00:02:57.770
And I do think you have always found out the sex, right?

00:02:57.770 --> 00:03:00.442
Yes, see, I have not found out the sex twice.

00:03:00.442 --> 00:03:07.951
My first two pregnancies I didn't, and with Hudson, my girl that actually has a boy name, I thought it was a boy the whole time.

00:03:07.951 --> 00:03:09.334
Yeah, so it was super weird.

00:03:09.334 --> 00:03:19.806
It was like it in your belly you don't like connect the whole time and then when she came out, everybody thought it was going to be a boy.

00:03:19.806 --> 00:03:21.548
So there was this moment where it was like, oh, it's a girl.

00:03:21.568 --> 00:03:22.408
It's a girl, yeah, and she has red hair.

00:03:22.429 --> 00:03:32.175
Like you're a little caught off guard, yeah, you're just like oh, you need a minute, so like I remember I would look at her in the middle of the night and it was like red and I'm like that's not Maddie, like it was just like it took time, yeah.

00:03:32.175 --> 00:03:41.745
So I feel like Brooke didn't like share that it was a boy for like a day and a half and I feel like she was like changing her attitude because then, yeah, she did this like voiceover.

00:03:41.925 --> 00:03:43.887
Well, I also think that influencers do this.

00:03:43.887 --> 00:03:46.849
They like wait to post things To build momentum.

00:03:46.849 --> 00:03:48.632
Yes, oh, I was dying to know 100%.

00:03:48.673 --> 00:03:51.034
Yeah, that's what I'm saying I was dying to know it worked like a charm.

00:03:51.034 --> 00:03:51.895
Oh, I was checking it.

00:03:51.895 --> 00:03:52.377
They all do that.

00:03:52.377 --> 00:03:54.426
I was checking it more than I was checking my bank account Exactly.

00:03:54.426 --> 00:03:55.109
They do that.

00:03:55.109 --> 00:03:59.508
They know that.

00:03:59.508 --> 00:04:00.890
It was a play by play.

00:04:00.890 --> 00:04:01.573
If you're showing, you're going.

00:04:01.573 --> 00:04:05.240
She's eating ice, she's getting an epidural, but then you need a day.

00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:08.508
They showed her pushing with her legs Right, but then you need time.

00:04:08.508 --> 00:04:09.211
No, it's fake.

00:04:09.211 --> 00:04:11.319
Yeah, see, I fall right into it every time.

00:04:21.487 --> 00:04:22.608
No, it's like I would do that too if I was.

00:04:22.608 --> 00:04:23.367
You know, I know.

00:04:23.367 --> 00:04:23.769
So she has a boy.

00:04:23.769 --> 00:04:24.269
So now she my language.

00:04:24.269 --> 00:04:25.269
I'm like I'm going to be Brooke.

00:04:25.269 --> 00:04:28.672
Yeah, you know, but I haven't woken up at 5 yet, but I'm still thinking about it.

00:04:28.911 --> 00:04:31.254
She worked out the day she delivered.

00:04:31.254 --> 00:04:31.494
I know.

00:04:32.154 --> 00:04:32.954
I can't get over it.

00:04:32.954 --> 00:04:33.776
I think it's great, though.

00:04:33.776 --> 00:04:35.317
So do you not Like I?

00:04:35.317 --> 00:04:35.916
Just buy into it.

00:04:46.860 --> 00:04:47.663
Wait a long time Like what's going on?

00:04:47.663 --> 00:04:48.146
Why are you working out?

00:04:48.146 --> 00:04:48.649
It's so weird to me.

00:04:48.649 --> 00:04:49.733
I believe all these people and you think I'm an idiot.

00:04:49.733 --> 00:04:51.942
I know I feel like the truth is somewhere in the middle, you know, yeah.

00:04:52.184 --> 00:04:52.485
Anyways.

00:04:52.485 --> 00:04:58.125
So now she's posting without makeup because she doesn't want people to think that she's that kind of mom.

00:04:58.125 --> 00:05:00.230
She wants to level it out for the moms.

00:05:00.411 --> 00:05:01.901
She wants to be like authentic.

00:05:01.901 --> 00:05:04.827
She's saying, yeah, like I have a newborn, I'm not putting red lipstick on.

00:05:04.827 --> 00:05:06.190
She wants to be like authentic.

00:05:06.211 --> 00:05:08.937
She's saying yeah, like, hey, like, I have a newborn, I'm not putting red lipstick on.

00:05:08.937 --> 00:05:09.216
Yes, gotcha.

00:05:09.216 --> 00:05:11.697
She got on and said that yeah, before the nursery reveal.

00:05:11.697 --> 00:05:14.163
She said, just so you know, I got a full night's sleep the first night, so I got up and got ready, but I want you to know I'm not doing that.

00:05:18.543 --> 00:05:19.564
I'm enjoying the baby face.

00:05:19.564 --> 00:05:20.324
Yeah Well, be like.

00:05:20.324 --> 00:05:22.706
Why are you getting ready Like it's not real?

00:05:22.706 --> 00:05:24.927
She doesn't have the hate comments that we have.

00:05:24.947 --> 00:05:25.809
Totally she's.

00:05:25.809 --> 00:05:28.250
I know I was all.

00:05:28.250 --> 00:05:29.250
Let's see what Brooke has.

00:05:29.250 --> 00:05:33.675
It's probably like you know, you're ugly too and it was all.

00:05:33.675 --> 00:05:37.757
Thank you, brooke, and I was all what the it's not the same.

00:05:37.778 --> 00:05:39.040
It's not the same at all we posted like a.

00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:43.665
So our other posts were like anti-men, which were not anti-man, were pro-man.

00:05:43.665 --> 00:05:51.663
So then finally, there was a pro-man one, and then the people got on and they're like digging yourself out of the grave like they were still mad.

00:05:51.663 --> 00:05:54.454
They're like oh yeah, because your earlier comment.

00:05:54.454 --> 00:06:01.019
Now you're digging yourself out of the grave and that is all they hate us on tiktok, but it's fine, yeah, it's not made for tiktok.

00:06:01.019 --> 00:06:02.384
No, it's there for young kids.

00:06:02.865 --> 00:06:10.028
I'm not a tToker, so young kids don't like as much, not going to be inappropriate, but anyways, brooke, so I've been watching the Kardashians.

00:06:10.028 --> 00:06:11.206
Did you watch the last season?

00:06:11.206 --> 00:06:12.822
I watched half of it.

00:06:12.822 --> 00:06:16.490
Yeah, it's kind of boring, like really boring, and it's so fake.

00:06:16.490 --> 00:06:22.168
They're all producers and I'm like you're editing everything you're putting out, but Courtney's so into being a mom.

00:06:22.168 --> 00:06:23.028
It's kind of nice.

00:06:23.028 --> 00:06:24.711
Yeah, she's my favorite.

00:06:24.711 --> 00:06:26.714
Yeah, she's very into being a mom, very into.

00:06:26.714 --> 00:06:29.927
But it's a little weird like the whole co-sleeping.

00:06:30.709 --> 00:06:41.687
I don't think it's weird In like the world, that's like how you sleep, like in the whole world, like the only culture that does sleep training is Americans, Really, yeah, so what do you think about that?

00:06:41.848 --> 00:06:42.750
I don't think it's natural.

00:06:42.750 --> 00:06:44.091
Why are you doing your shake your head?

00:06:44.091 --> 00:06:44.932
You're Americans.

00:06:44.932 --> 00:06:45.913
Yeah, what's wrong?

00:06:45.913 --> 00:06:46.615
What do you mean?

00:06:46.615 --> 00:06:47.964
You think you're supposed to sleep with your kid in your bed?

00:06:47.964 --> 00:06:48.949
Oh, don't clip this.

00:06:49.019 --> 00:06:50.764
I'm going to get like death threats.

00:06:50.764 --> 00:06:52.391
You know, wait, you do.

00:06:52.391 --> 00:06:55.088
No, I think we've never co-slept.

00:06:55.088 --> 00:07:07.970
I've saying like newborns, they need that, this they I read this thing that said they wake up startled.

00:07:07.970 --> 00:07:09.074
They don't sleep as good when they're not near you.

00:07:09.074 --> 00:07:12.343
They need to be hearing your sounds, smelling your smells, all those things to sleep.

00:07:12.343 --> 00:07:16.612
But yeah, every culture, animals, everything.

00:07:16.612 --> 00:07:19.245
They sleep with the mom for like a long time.

00:07:19.245 --> 00:07:24.382
So that's why the kids are crying and they're like oh, self-soothe and it's.

00:07:24.382 --> 00:07:26.221
They're not even self-soothing, they're just.

00:07:26.221 --> 00:07:28.327
They learn to like just deal with it.

00:07:28.327 --> 00:07:31.225
Yeah, so if you were to go back, would you co-sleep?

00:07:31.225 --> 00:07:32.610
I wouldn't be against it.

00:07:32.610 --> 00:07:36.290
I don't know, ben, is we're not like sleep kids in the bed?

00:07:36.290 --> 00:07:43.685
We've never had a kid in the bed, see, I've never had a next to the bed, but in like its own thing.

00:07:43.685 --> 00:07:43.946
Why?

00:07:43.966 --> 00:07:45.947
don't you have him in the bed because so many freaky things go on?

00:07:45.947 --> 00:07:46.728
Yeah, exactly.

00:07:46.827 --> 00:07:48.850
I'm a get your popcorn kids, you know?

00:07:49.490 --> 00:07:51.192
Remember, didn't you say, Fox was watching once?

00:07:51.192 --> 00:07:52.773
No, what the hell.

00:07:53.613 --> 00:07:57.357
That's like abuse, like that's wrong, that's like I'm going to jail.

00:07:57.357 --> 00:08:06.401
Thank you, you know, I think it did happen.

00:08:06.401 --> 00:08:06.923
No, the dogs, he was little.

00:08:06.923 --> 00:08:07.766
The dogs, no, the dogs in the back and play.

00:08:07.786 --> 00:08:09.110
I remember no, yeah, he was like no, I don't remember that really.

00:08:09.130 --> 00:08:10.153
No, I don't think I made that up.

00:08:10.153 --> 00:08:19.586
I mean, I don't know, but that never happened for DCS, never happened like what it's like, fully wrong, fully illegal.

00:08:19.687 --> 00:08:20.088
Tell your sleep.

00:08:20.108 --> 00:08:22.970
Sleep story oh yeah, the sleep story.

00:08:22.970 --> 00:08:26.973
So bear my almost youngest 12.

00:08:26.973 --> 00:08:28.435
He sleepwalks.

00:08:28.435 --> 00:08:32.453
He's when he doesn't do it every night, but he's done it consistently.

00:08:32.453 --> 00:08:33.460
He's done it at friends houses.

00:08:33.460 --> 00:08:35.669
It's when he's overtired, do you think?

00:08:36.072 --> 00:08:40.787
our listeners hear you talking about bear and they think you're talking about no, but I do have a new fear of the bees.

00:08:40.888 --> 00:08:45.347
Did you see the bees attack the woman on the paloma hike right by her house Recently?

00:08:45.347 --> 00:08:47.302
I have a fear of that Every time I'm hiking.

00:08:47.302 --> 00:08:49.524
I told Jen and Kara I'm like I'm scared of the bees.

00:08:49.524 --> 00:08:51.827
Like I have a plan I lay on the ground.

00:08:51.827 --> 00:08:55.350
They can chase you for up to 200 yards Like it's crazy.

00:08:55.350 --> 00:08:56.544
So what does laying on the ground do?

00:08:56.544 --> 00:09:01.369
Well, if they're non-Afric, their nest gets too populated.

00:09:01.389 --> 00:09:01.989
Where do you read?

00:09:02.009 --> 00:09:03.549
this stuff, I just love to research.

00:09:03.610 --> 00:09:03.750
Like.

00:09:03.750 --> 00:09:04.811
What's your research, though?

00:09:04.811 --> 00:09:09.615
A lot of times it's like Instagram, no, like the internet, so you google how to not get stung by bees.

00:09:09.835 --> 00:09:13.038
Yeah, like they can chase you, they will chase you up to 200 yards.

00:09:13.038 --> 00:09:23.144
I read Um, that's like crazy, so, but like you can't and they'll wait for you, if you jump in water, they'll wait above the water.

00:09:23.144 --> 00:09:24.773
It's like, it's like crazy.

00:09:24.773 --> 00:09:26.200
So what happens is the hive gets over.

00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:27.426
So if you lay down, it's just fine.

00:09:27.426 --> 00:09:32.210
Well, if they're non-Africanized the ones that attack these people, they're saying we're Africanized.

00:09:32.210 --> 00:09:34.307
Those are the very aggressive, like killer bees.

00:09:34.307 --> 00:09:38.144
Yeah, so anyways, they attack these people, like all three of them.

00:09:38.144 --> 00:09:41.008
The guy had an EpiPen.

00:09:41.008 --> 00:09:45.092
I'm like thank goodness he had his EpiPen, but anyways, so, anyways, back to what?

00:09:45.113 --> 00:09:45.432
I was saying.

00:09:45.894 --> 00:09:58.071
So Bear wakes up in the middle of the night and I just happen to wake up to go to the bathroom and then I hear him coming in my room crying and he's like asleep, but he's frantic and he cries and usually he has to pee and that's what wakes him up.

00:09:58.071 --> 00:10:02.133
So I usually just walk him to go pee and then he pees and then he walks right back to bed.

00:10:02.133 --> 00:10:08.436
Well, he pees and then he's like I had a bad dream and I'm like okay, and he's like I have a bloody nose.

00:10:08.436 --> 00:10:09.495
He doesn't have a bloody nose.

00:10:09.495 --> 00:10:11.317
He's like I have a bloody nose and he's going.

00:10:11.317 --> 00:10:24.270
I just think I snorted, but he's going and he's like I have a bloody nose and I'm like nose is just stuff.

00:10:24.270 --> 00:10:25.932
He's like do you have that thing like flow?

00:10:25.932 --> 00:10:28.735
Nays, so I'm sifting with my light trying to find the flow.

00:10:28.735 --> 00:10:31.466
Nays, so he's like crying very, come into your room.

00:10:31.466 --> 00:10:33.549
Yes, he's crying very loudly.

00:10:33.549 --> 00:10:34.231
So I don't.

00:10:34.231 --> 00:10:38.043
Him and Fox share a room so I don't want to take him back to his room because he's gonna wake Fox up.

00:10:38.043 --> 00:10:40.547
So I sit him on the couch and I'm like bear, wake up.

00:10:40.547 --> 00:10:41.889
And I try, you try, waking them up.

00:10:41.928 --> 00:10:48.322
They say don't wake a sleepwalker because it can like, startle them and I don't know what can happen, Like I don't know they can their heart stop, I don't know.

00:10:48.322 --> 00:10:49.988
They say, don't wake them.

00:10:49.988 --> 00:10:52.041
But I'm like okay, bear, wake up.

00:10:52.041 --> 00:10:54.543
I'm getting done with it now it's, it's escalating, it's going on.

00:10:54.543 --> 00:10:55.884
For now we're on like five to.

00:10:55.884 --> 00:11:05.880
So I'm like, okay, I'm giving him the flow, nays, Okay.

00:11:05.900 --> 00:11:11.969
So I walk him back to his room and he's screaming Like my nose, my nose, I can't breathe.

00:11:11.969 --> 00:11:19.629
So I'm trying to cover his mouth because, like Fox is sleeping and I'm like bear, shh, I'm going to throw you in the pool.

00:11:19.629 --> 00:11:21.145
I'm trying to like, scare him straight.

00:11:21.145 --> 00:11:22.067
You know, I'm like, scare him straight.

00:11:22.067 --> 00:11:24.028
You know, I'm like bear, I'm gonna throw you in the pool to wake him up.

00:11:24.028 --> 00:11:25.850
And he's like so I'm covering his mouth.

00:11:25.850 --> 00:11:26.851
And then he starts are you like?

00:11:26.851 --> 00:11:28.714
Aggressively, like is he like fighting you?

00:11:28.714 --> 00:11:30.154
Yeah, he's fighting and he's frantic.

00:11:30.154 --> 00:11:33.245
So I'm like bear, so I'm clasping, I'm like trying to cover his mouth.

00:11:33.245 --> 00:11:35.634
And then he's like you're trying to kill me.

00:11:35.634 --> 00:11:37.139
And he starts screaming.

00:11:37.139 --> 00:11:39.764
I'm trying to kill him and I'm like oh my gosh.

00:11:39.764 --> 00:11:41.307
So then I'm like am I trying to kill him?

00:11:41.488 --> 00:11:45.235
Like I mean, I'm not so did you keep covering his mouth?

00:11:45.235 --> 00:11:47.347
Well, I'm like shh shh Fox is sleeping.

00:11:47.620 --> 00:11:49.207
And then I'm like stop, stop.

00:11:49.207 --> 00:11:54.820
So I'm covering his mouth and he's like you're trying to kill me and I'm like I'm not trying to kill you, but I might if you don't stop.

00:11:54.820 --> 00:12:00.086
Is anyone waking up at this?

00:12:00.086 --> 00:12:00.847
No, finally, calm down.

00:12:00.847 --> 00:12:04.253
Finally he's like he woke up and then I'm like go to bed.

00:12:04.253 --> 00:12:04.693
Go to bed.

00:12:04.693 --> 00:12:07.865
And he's like alright, and he's crying and I'm like go to bed, so I just leave.

00:12:07.865 --> 00:12:12.326
And then the next morning I'm like Bear, do you remember me saying me trying to cover your mouth because you were screaming?

00:12:12.326 --> 00:12:18.985
You kept saying I was trying to kill you and he's like no, he had no recollection.

00:12:19.187 --> 00:12:20.028
Does he do it?

00:12:20.028 --> 00:12:20.128
A?

00:12:20.128 --> 00:12:28.447
Our like eight hour layover in the airport on the way to the Bahamas, he, we had to sleep on the airport floor and then he woke up and he was sleepwalking and he was like.

00:12:28.447 --> 00:12:37.797
He like woke up in the airport and then he was like, and he just like kept walking around, going and we were like bear.

00:12:37.797 --> 00:12:49.346
So weird and but like the way you do, yeah, and it was like okay, bear, and it's kind of annoying that we're not, we're not, we've been dealing with this for so many years.

00:12:49.386 --> 00:12:55.494
So we're not like nice about it anymore, we're like knock it off, you know, because we're like desensitized to it.

00:12:55.494 --> 00:13:05.945
So he like talking to people and he's like and he's just looking around and people are probably like this guy's like what you know, and I'm like lay down, you know.

00:13:05.945 --> 00:13:06.807
So what does he do?

00:13:06.807 --> 00:13:07.989
He just like he woke up.

00:13:07.989 --> 00:13:11.341
He like sits right up and he's like does he lay down?

00:13:11.341 --> 00:13:15.711
No, he's like, and then he'll walk and like he's asleep.

00:13:15.831 --> 00:13:17.763
It's weird and you just have to lean him.

00:13:17.842 --> 00:13:18.686
I'm like do you need to pee?

00:13:18.686 --> 00:13:19.908
It's usually he has to pee.

00:13:19.908 --> 00:13:27.024
That wakes him up, but he's like asleep because he's so tired oh, that's so funny but he's done it at people's houses just like he's.

00:13:27.024 --> 00:13:29.650
He our friends Jeff and Julie, he spent the night there.

00:13:29.650 --> 00:13:33.048
He's like yeah, bear just woke up screaming, you know, it's like so awkward.

00:13:33.048 --> 00:13:34.792
I'm like I'm sorry what did they do?

00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:35.663
has he ever done it?

00:13:35.702 --> 00:13:40.039
your house no yeah, I'm like he just has to pee, just lead him to the bathroom.

00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:41.683
You know, jeff, lead him to the bathroom.

00:13:41.683 --> 00:13:42.365
I think so I can.

00:13:42.365 --> 00:13:43.067
I can't remember.

00:13:43.067 --> 00:13:46.924
Oh, that's so funny, but like he'll pee in like a random place, like he doesn't know where he is.

00:13:46.924 --> 00:13:49.166
You know, yeah, has he peed in the corner of your house?

00:13:49.166 --> 00:13:50.865
I feel like he has.

00:13:50.865 --> 00:13:51.969
Yeah, oh, were you so mad?

00:13:51.969 --> 00:13:59.292
Yeah, and we just have to lead him like over here, bud, you know, did he pee?

00:13:59.292 --> 00:14:00.572
All that's crazy.

00:14:00.732 --> 00:14:02.874
So anyways, so Easter it wasn't that great of a story.

00:14:02.874 --> 00:14:03.375
It was funny.

00:14:03.375 --> 00:14:05.416
I mean it's concerning and funny all together.

00:14:05.436 --> 00:14:08.278
Yeah, but I wasn't trying to kill him, like it's so, jerry's out.

00:14:08.561 --> 00:14:10.559
But like he thought that and he's like, yeah, I had a dream.

00:14:10.559 --> 00:14:27.162
Well, yeah, when someone's covering your mouth like it's normal, like you're like, how dare you think that you know what was your Easter?

00:14:27.162 --> 00:14:27.664
Like, yeah, it was good.

00:14:27.664 --> 00:14:27.966
How was yours?

00:14:27.985 --> 00:14:28.929
no, yours wasn't good no, we had a rough morning.

00:14:28.929 --> 00:14:35.629
Yeah, yeah, well, and I was gonna say well, this was like one of those things where Instagram everyone's posting like the Easter pick, happy Easter.

00:14:35.629 --> 00:14:38.041
Their siblings are all loving each other.

00:14:38.041 --> 00:14:40.667
Yeah, um, you know like we.

00:14:40.667 --> 00:14:47.791
Well, it started off rough the night before because it was a last minute Easter basket and so Ben didn't want me going to Target 10 o'clock at night by myself.

00:14:47.791 --> 00:14:52.078
Yeah, so he's like I'll go with you, but then I don't like when he's a part of the things.

00:14:52.078 --> 00:14:53.956
Yeah, because then he's like really mad about the money.

00:14:53.956 --> 00:14:56.027
Yeah, he's like this is ridiculous.

00:14:56.027 --> 00:14:57.566
I'm all, it's a candy bar.

00:14:57.566 --> 00:14:58.028
You know.

00:14:58.220 --> 00:15:02.554
So does he not like?

00:15:02.554 --> 00:15:04.764
Do you ever get like whoa, you spent this much at target?

00:15:04.764 --> 00:15:07.232
Or he doesn't really use my credit card and he doesn't know.

00:15:07.232 --> 00:15:08.797
He doesn't always know he never knows.

00:15:09.219 --> 00:15:12.053
So he was there seeing I like do all christmas on my credit card.

00:15:12.053 --> 00:15:13.619
He's like how much are we spending on christmas?

00:15:13.619 --> 00:15:15.192
I'll do a little on the joint account.

00:15:15.192 --> 00:15:16.875
Yeah, just to like act like it's christmas.

00:15:16.875 --> 00:15:20.171
Yeah, like oh, because if I nothing, he'd be like well, where'd that?

00:15:20.171 --> 00:15:20.792
You know?

00:15:20.871 --> 00:15:21.874
ferrari come from.

00:15:21.874 --> 00:15:22.794
No, I'm just kidding.

00:15:22.794 --> 00:15:26.740
So your credit card is separate, not so it's seeming like you have two separate lives.

00:15:26.740 --> 00:15:31.130
It's like your work account, but you don't write it off for work, you just use it as personal yeah.

00:15:31.171 --> 00:15:33.337
So I have a personal credit card that he doesn't see.

00:15:33.337 --> 00:15:37.538
He has access to it, but he doesn't really check it and I'll put like work stuff or whatever.

00:15:37.538 --> 00:15:41.193
So then do you pay that with your own money, like your work, yes, or your?

00:15:41.434 --> 00:15:42.375
money with both.

00:15:42.375 --> 00:15:46.844
So when you make that payment, isn't he like whoa well, like, so I'll book.

00:15:46.844 --> 00:15:51.557
I mean, I'm just saying kyle knows if there's anything spent that's how I am.

00:15:51.698 --> 00:15:51.999
I'm all.

00:15:51.999 --> 00:15:52.600
What's this?

00:15:53.022 --> 00:15:56.736
yeah, literally last night before bed, we had to go over target and then what was this?

00:15:56.878 --> 00:16:00.856
I'm the kyle and I'm just like oh yeah, so no.

00:16:01.077 --> 00:16:05.052
So my work card so if you pay, make a payment on the credit card, he's not like what was that payment for?

00:16:05.533 --> 00:16:14.273
oh I'm like hey, we, I bought the plane tickets like he doesn't know, like what things cost, because I get well that's like.

00:16:14.293 --> 00:16:15.676
Kyle, I plan all the travel.

00:16:15.676 --> 00:16:21.740
So I'll be like, hey, this like the flights or like excursions or whatever, and then you'll move money.

00:16:21.740 --> 00:16:26.777
So I'll be like, hey, I need to make like a credit card payment, I need like five thousand dollars to pay it, and he doesn't know that.

00:16:26.777 --> 00:16:31.254
Like I went to abercrombie and like you know, it works great.

00:16:31.254 --> 00:16:33.139
You know, yeah, your other tickets were high.

00:16:33.139 --> 00:16:34.201
Yeah, that's what I do.

00:16:34.201 --> 00:16:37.678
I'm like, oh, I was a fortune, you know, and then I was all booking it with points, you know.

00:16:37.678 --> 00:16:44.504
You know, no money battles are, yeah, real and I'm not advising this.

00:16:44.884 --> 00:16:47.450
This is not advice, this is not what Dave Ramsey says.

00:16:47.490 --> 00:17:05.964
No, because I you know Dave's very communicative yeah and real and I'm not saying this works for everybody but this works for us um, but if we were also like I feel like I'm in touch with, like I always feel like I can pay it with my work account if needed.

00:17:05.964 --> 00:17:09.734
It's not like I'm just putting anything on there and like, oh, shoot, you know.

00:17:09.734 --> 00:17:13.191
So, anyways, I buy the Christmas presents on there, so the Easter.

00:17:13.191 --> 00:17:13.933
So he comes with me.

00:17:13.933 --> 00:17:16.181
He's being like a Scrooge.

00:17:16.181 --> 00:17:19.952
So I was like trying to decide what gift cards is their older?

00:17:19.952 --> 00:17:26.782
So I got him each a gift card and like I didn't know what to get Bear, I got Fox Fortnite gift card and then I was like grabbing it for bear.

00:17:26.782 --> 00:17:29.785
And then I was like I feel like bear won't like this and Ben's like it's fine, just get it.

00:17:29.785 --> 00:17:32.247
So I was kind of under the gun, so I got it.

00:17:32.247 --> 00:17:37.496
So the next morning bear woke up and I think he was disappointed about his gift card, but he was still sweet about it.

00:17:37.496 --> 00:17:39.821
He was just like, oh yeah.

00:17:39.821 --> 00:17:43.354
And so Ben was like these kids are ungrateful.

00:17:43.354 --> 00:17:44.816
He was like on the ungrateful train.

00:17:44.816 --> 00:17:45.436
So it's oh.

00:17:45.676 --> 00:17:46.498
The morning started off.

00:17:46.498 --> 00:17:50.804
We were supposed to go to sunrise service and ben always wakes up at 5 am every day.

00:17:50.804 --> 00:17:53.694
So I was like, hey, you gonna wake us up.

00:17:53.694 --> 00:17:59.557
Like I'm not double like I'll set my own alarm when we have like to go somewhere, but he usually has it.

00:17:59.557 --> 00:18:01.041
So he's like, yeah, I got it.

00:18:01.041 --> 00:18:03.409
He slept in, we all slept in.

00:18:03.409 --> 00:18:06.294
We missed sunrise service, so it started the easter off on like a.

00:18:06.294 --> 00:18:08.017
I was annoyed.

00:18:08.017 --> 00:18:12.023
So when I'm annoyed it's not the best, it's different, the vibe is different.

00:18:12.023 --> 00:18:14.578
It's it's like no one can get over it.

00:18:14.859 --> 00:18:19.480
I can't get over it, so no one's getting over it you know you want everyone to realize how much this ruined your day exactly.

00:18:19.560 --> 00:18:21.931
Yeah, so I was like this is really disappointing.

00:18:22.111 --> 00:18:29.221
You know, you said that yeah, as I'm drinking my coffee, I'm like looking at him yeah, I'm all well, geez.

00:18:29.701 --> 00:18:32.405
And he's like well, let's throw on sweats and be there in 10 minutes.

00:18:32.405 --> 00:18:36.179
I'm all, we're not throwing sweats on, like I was nasty to him.

00:18:36.179 --> 00:18:47.519
And then he's like sorry, honey, we went to bed at 11 o'clock, I was just tired and I'm all drinking my coffee, you know, and like, um, he's probably thinking quit drinking your coffee and we can make it, you jackass.

00:18:47.809 --> 00:18:51.076
That's probably what he's thinking, but he didn't say that because he knew better.

00:18:51.076 --> 00:18:55.032
So we missed the easter service.

00:18:55.032 --> 00:18:57.278
We had to go to the 8 30 that pushed our movie back.

00:18:57.278 --> 00:18:58.521
It was just like it was.

00:18:58.521 --> 00:19:00.576
And then the kids he felt like the kids weren't grateful.

00:19:00.576 --> 00:19:02.391
So then he's taking everything away from the kids.

00:19:02.791 --> 00:19:05.096
Oh, I hate that bear got a bunch of candy for his.

00:19:05.096 --> 00:19:09.506
He has an upcoming um school trip and he was all excited for candy on the bus.

00:19:09.506 --> 00:19:11.551
And he's like you're not having candy on the bus.

00:19:11.551 --> 00:19:13.117
I'm like why are we doing this right now?

00:19:13.117 --> 00:19:14.563
So then I'm mad at him.

00:19:14.563 --> 00:19:17.432
So then it like escalated to like a family fight.

00:19:17.432 --> 00:19:18.917
Everyone's mad at everybody.

00:19:18.917 --> 00:19:27.301
It was just like a really bad, like we should have been celebrating Easter and Jesus and all the things, and we were nasty.

00:19:27.301 --> 00:19:28.775
So then we went to church.

00:19:28.775 --> 00:19:29.738
It got a little better.

00:19:29.738 --> 00:19:36.900
Then we had an egg hunt and then it was fine.

00:19:36.900 --> 00:19:38.796
But some of the kids were disappointed.

00:19:38.796 --> 00:19:39.913
They didn't get the golden egg.

00:19:40.494 --> 00:19:41.416
Oh, is there one golden egg?

00:19:41.416 --> 00:19:42.460
There's one golden egg.

00:19:42.539 --> 00:19:43.001
Who gets it?

00:19:43.001 --> 00:19:45.921
Well, whoever finds it, oh yeah, what's?

00:19:45.961 --> 00:19:46.604
in the golden egg, who gets?

00:19:46.624 --> 00:19:47.105
it Well, whoever finds it.

00:19:47.125 --> 00:19:47.970
Oh yeah, what's in the golden egg Money?

00:19:48.770 --> 00:19:51.159
So it's like a dash, it's excited, yeah.

00:19:51.159 --> 00:19:52.655
So it was in the bottom of the pool.

00:19:52.655 --> 00:19:58.143
So Bear saw it, jumped in the bottom of the pool, got it Fully dressed, yes, okay.

00:19:58.143 --> 00:19:59.957
So then, yeah.

00:19:59.957 --> 00:20:02.994
So then it was like some people were disappointed.

00:20:02.994 --> 00:20:04.817
Then you're mad, they're disappointed, yeah.

00:20:04.817 --> 00:20:06.780
And then I'm thinking, oh, I should have done more.

00:20:06.941 --> 00:20:09.224
Like you know, I'm just like I want to make the memories.

00:20:09.710 --> 00:20:17.532
Yeah, this should have, and then Ben's like I can't believe there's a $50 bill in the Golden Egg, like you know, and it's just like I'm doing the shut, the fuck up, you know on.

00:20:17.613 --> 00:20:21.576
Easter in my head.

00:20:21.576 --> 00:20:26.839
I'm all uh, was probably just still reeling from getting yelled at all morning, I don't know.

00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:30.583
So anyways, we finally, at 6.40 at night, went and saw our movie.

00:20:30.583 --> 00:20:37.228
We were supposed to see the movie in the morning, it got postponed to the night and the whole time we didn't get a picture at church, and everyone's getting the church picture.

00:20:37.228 --> 00:20:40.414
So I was like, oh, we're a loser family, you know, you're feeling that.

00:20:41.195 --> 00:20:46.462
And then, and then we finally went to the movie at 6 o'clock at night and then it changed everything.

00:20:46.462 --> 00:20:48.144
It was the king of kings.

00:20:48.144 --> 00:20:48.766
It was so good.

00:20:48.766 --> 00:20:51.198
And then I was like, yeah, that's the true meaning.

00:20:51.198 --> 00:20:56.417
And then after the movie we were all in the best mood and I was like it's just a shame though, the whole day.

00:20:56.417 --> 00:21:01.200
Yeah, it was like we were all kind of irritable with each other and then my kids were mad.

00:21:01.200 --> 00:21:03.922
We weren't going to hang out at your house with your kids.

00:21:03.922 --> 00:21:06.443
It was just kind of like an ungrateful vibe.

00:21:06.443 --> 00:21:08.385
Yeah, but they didn't mean to be ungrateful.

00:21:08.385 --> 00:21:09.146
And then Ben was mad.

00:21:09.146 --> 00:21:09.807
They were ungrateful.

00:21:09.807 --> 00:21:10.951
Do you think that?

00:21:11.031 --> 00:21:11.432
as a kid?

00:21:11.432 --> 00:21:15.261
Did you put pressure on those holidays Like ever on Easter?

00:21:15.261 --> 00:21:17.882
Were you ever like this sucks compared to what other people are doing?

00:21:17.882 --> 00:21:20.973
Or do you think without social media, we didn't know what anybody was doing?

00:21:21.074 --> 00:21:22.739
No, I was bopping around to 10 houses.

00:21:22.739 --> 00:21:23.441
It was horrible.

00:21:23.441 --> 00:21:27.971
Yeah, bopping around to 10 houses, it was horrible.

00:21:27.971 --> 00:21:28.693
Yeah, but you didn't like compare it.

00:21:28.693 --> 00:21:29.013
No, yeah, totally.

00:21:29.013 --> 00:21:34.392
But I think when you see, like me, seeing the church pictures, like everyone's family, all I love you, I'm all well.

00:21:34.392 --> 00:21:36.876
My siblings were punching each other earlier, so that's fun.

00:21:36.876 --> 00:21:37.719
Yeah, totally.

00:21:38.221 --> 00:21:42.960
I know this is such a topic about Instagram because Reese was just talking to Hudson about this today.

00:21:42.960 --> 00:21:49.464
So I feel like I just want to pivot and bring this in because I want her opinion on, yeah, what it's like from her perspective.

00:21:49.464 --> 00:21:52.432
Yeah, so, let's, let's introduce her, okay, okay.

00:21:52.432 --> 00:21:54.657
So today we have a special guest.

00:21:54.657 --> 00:21:57.653
We brought her in for half of it because I want her opinion on stuff.

00:21:57.653 --> 00:22:01.586
She's looks like a model, she's a good girl, she's my cousin.

00:22:01.586 --> 00:22:02.691
We're obsessed with her.

00:22:02.691 --> 00:22:03.172
We're obsessed with her.

00:22:03.172 --> 00:22:04.596
Yeah, she and I are like so obsessed with her every day she'll send her.

00:22:04.596 --> 00:22:06.142
Yeah, it is Tisha and I are like so obsessed with her every day.

00:22:06.142 --> 00:22:09.650
She'll send us pictures sometimes, or we find them, and then Tisha makes it her screensaver.

00:22:09.750 --> 00:22:11.938
I told her is this weird, if this is my lock screen?

00:22:12.179 --> 00:22:17.797
Yeah, but what the thing is about Reese why I think she's an asset to the podcast is she has a really good family.

00:22:17.797 --> 00:22:22.661
I'm not saying it because it's part of her aunt like I'm home.

00:22:22.661 --> 00:22:25.563
So she's a whole turf which is our family.

00:22:25.563 --> 00:22:27.584
But her parents are really special.

00:22:27.584 --> 00:22:28.224
They're different.

00:22:28.224 --> 00:22:28.805
They're.

00:22:28.805 --> 00:22:30.866
All of her siblings are just great people.

00:22:30.866 --> 00:22:32.111
All of her cousins are great people.

00:22:32.111 --> 00:22:36.962
It's just like a different perspective on how her parents raised her to be like a good girl.

00:22:37.391 --> 00:22:42.883
Successful athlete makes good choices like if my kid turns out like this, I'm beside myself.

00:22:42.903 --> 00:22:53.917
So I want to get her perspective on like parenting and making good choices, making bad choices, instagram, so I was going to save it, but now that we're talking about it yeah, I'm curious if she's ever had that from the kids perspective.

00:22:53.917 --> 00:22:58.577
Yeah, so we're going to bring Reese Holtorf on and we'll post a picture so you can see her body.

00:22:58.738 --> 00:23:02.334
Yeah, I know it's oh, you can have the pillow.

00:23:02.334 --> 00:23:03.055
No, you can have it.

00:23:03.055 --> 00:23:04.217
No, most of them will grab you another.

00:23:04.217 --> 00:23:04.999
We like the pillow.

00:23:04.999 --> 00:23:05.680
It's like a comfort.

00:23:05.700 --> 00:23:07.804
It's like a comfort, like a blankie.

00:23:07.804 --> 00:23:11.451
Yeah, you feel like on display very isn't it weird?

00:23:11.451 --> 00:23:13.657
No, as soon as you're under the lights, it's intimidating.

00:23:13.657 --> 00:23:15.021
Yeah, just talk to us.

00:23:15.171 --> 00:23:15.633
I know it's awful.

00:23:15.633 --> 00:23:19.230
I know I'm like sweating every time the real, my hair looks horrible anyways.

00:23:19.731 --> 00:23:20.011
Okay.

00:23:20.011 --> 00:23:21.614
So easter, so we'll dive in.

00:23:21.614 --> 00:23:23.016
We're gonna talk to race more, but I'm curious.

00:23:23.016 --> 00:23:23.557
Her opinion.

00:23:23.557 --> 00:23:27.201
Yeah, when kids are growing up, do they, especially if they don't have instagram?

00:23:27.201 --> 00:23:28.542
Do kids have?

00:23:28.763 --> 00:23:34.987
Like, I was telling you this is the dumbest thing, but I always hide eggs and then the kids are jerks about the eggs.

00:23:34.987 --> 00:23:36.712
They're pissed about having to find all the eggs.

00:23:36.712 --> 00:23:37.935
Your kids, yes, yeah.

00:23:37.935 --> 00:23:39.961
So then this year we only did one golden egg.

00:23:39.961 --> 00:23:42.595
We did do it for all of them, equal money.

00:23:42.595 --> 00:23:44.397
But that's bonnie, everything's equal.

00:23:44.397 --> 00:23:45.760
Yeah, you know so.

00:23:45.760 --> 00:23:46.603
But then they were mad.

00:23:46.603 --> 00:23:48.714
It was only one egg and I'm like this is so stupid.

00:23:48.714 --> 00:23:50.259
Every year you're annoyed.

00:23:50.259 --> 00:23:51.301
You have to find the eggs.

00:23:51.301 --> 00:23:52.732
It's like you think you have to clean up.

00:23:52.732 --> 00:23:54.960
They were jerks last year so I didn't do the eggs.

00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:59.711
But then I'm like do they care because they're comparing to other people that have an egg hunt, or do they really care?

00:23:59.711 --> 00:24:00.131
I don't know.

00:24:00.131 --> 00:24:05.739
So, like, growing up, like Reese, tell us what your Easter was like this year and let's see if you had any issues.

00:24:05.739 --> 00:24:07.821
I feel like your family is Pleasantville.

00:24:07.842 --> 00:24:09.924
Though I know it's annoying, they all love each other.

00:24:09.924 --> 00:24:11.808
I know, were they punching each other five minutes?

00:24:11.828 --> 00:24:13.096
No, and they're all so nice to each other.

00:24:13.096 --> 00:24:15.509
Her siblings, they're all nice to each other, but it's different.

00:24:22.198 --> 00:24:23.038
They're all supportive.

00:24:23.058 --> 00:24:24.801
You do yeah Over like silly things.

00:24:24.862 --> 00:24:27.365
But then we're like what are we doing?

00:24:27.365 --> 00:24:28.365
Like seriously, what are we doing?

00:24:28.365 --> 00:24:29.153
Why are we fighting over?

00:24:29.173 --> 00:24:32.555
you're wearing my shirt Like really yeah, oh, my girls are fighting about that every day right now.

00:24:32.555 --> 00:24:32.996
That's the thing.

00:24:33.017 --> 00:24:33.858
I fought with my sister.

00:24:33.878 --> 00:24:34.259
It's normal.

00:24:42.276 --> 00:24:43.317
Yeah, they're really nasty about it too.

00:24:43.817 --> 00:24:45.739
I feel like it's different between each sibling.

00:24:45.739 --> 00:24:48.180
Like me and Riley fought throughout all of high school.

00:24:48.180 --> 00:24:55.685
We would drive together and she would like the air turned all the way out hot and I'm sweating because I tried on 20 different outfits because I had my outfits and I'm like, please turn the air conditioning on.

00:24:55.705 --> 00:24:57.267
We would fight the whole way to school.

00:24:57.267 --> 00:25:05.737
So I feel like it's different each sibling, but I feel like once you get almost out of high school, it's like you're friends with your siblings, like it's not.

00:25:05.737 --> 00:25:09.961
They're not your sister, they're not your brother yeah, and like even now that I'm older, it's like Reed's my friend.

00:25:09.961 --> 00:25:13.506
Like, yeah, I can yell at him, but like he's my like friend like, yeah, so she has four.

00:25:13.685 --> 00:25:15.953
There's four of them yeah, so there's three girls and one boy.

00:25:15.953 --> 00:25:18.400
Yes, and you're second.

00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:19.823
Yeah, yes, and your.

00:25:19.823 --> 00:25:21.211

Yes, riley's 22, riley, and Riley's the one that married Noah.00:25:25.621 --> 00:25:28.236


That dated seven years, and we talked about how they waited until they were married.00:25:28.236 --> 00:25:29.251


Yes, so that's Riley.00:25:29.251 --> 00:25:35.048


And then there's Reese, and then Reagan's two years younger yes, reagan's a senior in high school and then Reed as a freshman in high school.00:25:35.067 --> 00:25:36.010


Three years, yeah, yeah.00:25:36.010 --> 00:25:38.519


So two, two, three, yeah, yeah, yeah.00:25:38.519 --> 00:25:51.957


So, like it's usually just me, ma will host something which is our grandma, my dad's mom.00:25:51.957 --> 00:25:57.836


But this year we went to our my mom's mom's house on Saturday night so that everyone could make it and we just all ate, and then we did like a little game and the game Incorporated like gifts or candy.00:25:57.836 --> 00:25:58.939


It was like super fun.00:25:58.939 --> 00:26:00.324


We were me my plan date Mimi.00:26:00.464 --> 00:26:01.950

Should we just like?00:26:02.611 --> 00:26:08.923


You had a bounce, a ping-pong ball, a cupcake holder and then, whatever number you got, you basically picked the matching prize.00:26:09.390 --> 00:26:11.681


And it was like candy or like $2.00:26:11.681 --> 00:26:12.885


How'd she know to do that?00:26:12.967 --> 00:26:31.166


See, I should have done it again, as you're getting older, do you feel like those things are still just as fun, like, do you love, like the little things that like parents do to make things special for the kids, or do you feel like it doesn't matter now that you're older, I mean, it's not really fun but it's tradition, yeah, so it's like, oh, like it's easter, like it's just a tradition what we do I feel like my kids are really starting to lean into the tradition.00:26:31.207 --> 00:26:32.630


Yeah, I thought they didn't care about.00:26:32.650 --> 00:26:34.294


We talked about that, remember on the phone.00:26:34.294 --> 00:26:36.780


Yeah, remember I was walking.00:26:36.780 --> 00:26:38.751


No, we remember we talked about the ski trip and stuff.00:26:38.751 --> 00:26:40.474


Yeah, oh yeah, I feel like the sunrise.00:26:40.515 --> 00:26:41.316


They've always yelled about it.00:26:41.316 --> 00:26:44.401


This year they're like we're going to sunrise yeah you care.00:26:44.422 --> 00:26:50.137


Yes, I feel like it's a tradition behind it, not like the actual game or the two dollars and it's like the nostalgia.00:26:50.618 --> 00:26:54.945


Mimi, yes, always does the game she'll don't shut, yeah, she'll usually do something always different.00:26:54.945 --> 00:26:56.011


Yeah, they're always different.00:26:56.071 --> 00:27:01.751


Some game, some small thing, like whether it's an easter hunt or an egg hunt or a little game, like she always plans different things.00:27:01.751 --> 00:27:02.393


That's cute.00:27:02.393 --> 00:27:12.771


And then Sunday we went to sunrise service we always that's usually the service we go to and then we went over to Meemaw's for like a later lunch and that's where everyone met over there and we ate.00:27:12.771 --> 00:27:17.383


And then we did an Easter egg hunt and we each get to find yes, but it's even so.00:27:17.403 --> 00:27:20.434


we each find nine regular eggs and one golden egg.00:27:20.434 --> 00:27:23.138


You only get one golden egg, but there's a golden egg for everyone.00:27:23.480 --> 00:27:27.205


Maybe that's where I went wrong with the one golden egg, but like life's just not fair.00:27:27.289 --> 00:27:28.996


See, I think only one person should get the golden egg.00:27:29.036 --> 00:27:29.679


That's what I mean.00:27:30.471 --> 00:27:38.157


I'm like, if you're going to make eight, golden eggs with 50 bucks put all that money in one golden egg and hide it so hard, and whoever finds it gets it.00:27:38.157 --> 00:27:38.900


That's what I thought.00:27:39.040 --> 00:27:39.741


I don't think it's that.00:27:39.741 --> 00:27:47.511


I don't think you can lose.00:27:47.511 --> 00:27:51.144


Sometimes there is one winner, yeah, in life, and then sometimes, like, because it's family, yeah, I think it gets more like yeah, you know, like yeah.00:27:51.164 --> 00:27:56.943


Oh, like I'd be pissed if Reagan found the golden egg right, well, that, yeah, and that happened so what's in the golden egg?00:27:56.943 --> 00:27:59.451


Uh, there was 25 dollars in the golden egg.00:27:59.471 --> 00:28:02.098


That's really great she does all that and still hides nine eggs.00:28:02.098 --> 00:28:04.113


Yes, she and you guys are all old.00:28:04.212 --> 00:28:10.960


Yeah, so they have the regular eggs, just have quarters in them, and you know this every year, yes, and then the golden egg has cash and she like hides them.00:28:10.960 --> 00:28:13.577


My mom and Stacy hid them this year.00:28:13.577 --> 00:28:15.432


So they're like guys turn around, like don't look.00:28:15.673 --> 00:28:20.941


And they still do, and they hide them out back, see I wonder if that's so.00:28:21.000 --> 00:28:22.903


I get to go find nine quarters.00:28:23.064 --> 00:28:31.217


It's just, you love the traditions, I do feel like we're both big on traditions Because we didn't have many, yeah, and we work to make traditions even with each other at the kids you know?00:28:31.237 --> 00:28:34.378


Yeah, I just feel like you know you're going to do it, tisha has a tradition.00:28:34.829 --> 00:28:35.432


Yeah, I'm all.00:28:35.432 --> 00:28:36.698


I'm going to kill your tradition.00:28:37.190 --> 00:28:42.675


Like it's so weird, I'm all next year.00:28:42.675 --> 00:28:43.916


Your kids are going to be a part of it.00:28:43.997 --> 00:28:47.800


And look, she just laughs at you.00:28:47.901 --> 00:28:51.585


It's serious and I'm funny and it's not funny, it's stupid.00:28:51.585 --> 00:28:53.993


Nobody's laughing, nobody's laughing.00:28:53.993 --> 00:28:55.763


It's not like I don't even know what you're laughing at right now.00:28:55.763 --> 00:29:01.942


I know it's like thanks, ruth isn't invited back because she makes me feel not funny, no, but like I'm being real.00:29:11.970 --> 00:29:12.211


What are?00:29:12.211 --> 00:29:14.415


I think she's so funny, like everywhere I'm out there like it's like I'm never sick of it.00:29:14.415 --> 00:29:15.659


It's weird, it's like it's a lesbian, but okay, it's fine.00:29:15.659 --> 00:29:16.019


This is helpful.00:29:16.019 --> 00:29:18.555


I like all this because Bonnie, my mother-in-law, is wonderful.00:29:18.555 --> 00:29:19.781


She always does such cute things.00:29:19.781 --> 00:29:22.311


Yeah, and like now that I'm getting older, I'm like crap.00:29:22.311 --> 00:29:23.855


I was an adult.00:29:23.855 --> 00:29:26.679


I don't know why I said it like that, but adult I'm like crap.00:29:26.679 --> 00:29:27.079


I was an adult.00:29:27.099 --> 00:29:36.576


I don't know why I said it like that yeah, adult, I'm a Adult, but continue, I was an adult and we sold to Kyle's and we got to find the egg and I thought it was like so fun.00:29:36.576 --> 00:29:41.536


Yeah, I love my family, but we didn't do that stuff growing up, Right, but I kind of tend to be like that.00:29:41.536 --> 00:29:49.998


I'm like eh, you, I'm like eh, you know like kind of how my family was, yeah, but like I love how Bonnie is, so it's like big shoes to follow, because I'm like Bonnie still makes it cute.00:29:49.998 --> 00:29:51.556


She still did an egg hunt for everyone.00:29:51.556 --> 00:29:56.173


She's cute, yeah, and everyone had a basket with the bathing suit and like you're right, it's a tradition of it.00:29:56.173 --> 00:29:58.614


That's cute.00:29:58.614 --> 00:30:03.096


So do you guys ever, does your mom ever yell no?00:30:03.416 --> 00:30:04.337


My mom doesn't yell.00:30:04.337 --> 00:30:07.440


If she does yell, no Guys, she can't say the word pissed.00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:12.323


So when she's pissed off, she'll be like I'm so peaced right now, like you guys are peacing me off.00:30:12.323 --> 00:30:14.105


Do you just laugh?00:30:14.144 --> 00:30:14.944


I just laugh.00:30:14.944 --> 00:30:15.865


She never cusses, huh.00:30:15.905 --> 00:30:19.327


No, but when she does, it's hilarious, we all just laugh at her.00:30:19.387 --> 00:30:20.690


Yeah, you.00:30:21.791 --> 00:30:24.557


The other day, crystal, we were on the phone and then I was.00:30:25.058 --> 00:30:26.161


Mom, this is so embarrassing.00:30:26.161 --> 00:30:30.516


I had someone else's kid with me in the car, oh, and I didn't even know the girl that well.00:30:30.516 --> 00:30:31.799


So it was like really awkward.00:30:31.799 --> 00:30:35.080


My brother was already flipping my kids off at the game.00:30:35.080 --> 00:30:38.833


Oh gosh, all this went on with the poor girl that was with us and I apologized to her ten times.00:30:38.833 --> 00:30:42.076


Yeah, so we're finally alone in the car and I'm almost home.00:30:42.076 --> 00:30:42.998


Nothing bad's going to happen.00:30:43.077 --> 00:30:45.400


And I'm talking to her on speaker, which I'm not a speaker girl.00:30:45.400 --> 00:30:48.584


I always tell people do not put me on speaker, you never know what's coming out.00:30:48.584 --> 00:30:58.554


So all of a sudden my two boys are fighting and then all of a sudden, I hear a loud crash and then screaming.00:30:58.554 --> 00:30:59.914


It was like a pitch scream OK.00:31:00.056 --> 00:31:01.037


Yes, so I'm like.00:31:01.136 --> 00:31:02.198


I thought someone broke their arm.00:31:02.238 --> 00:31:03.199


So I'm like I just hung up.00:31:03.259 --> 00:31:03.699


I'm like who's her?00:31:03.699 --> 00:31:07.542


And so she just hung up like mid, so I'm like Miss Tisha gets a little frustrated sometimes.00:31:08.223 --> 00:31:09.125


I'm sorry about that.00:31:09.125 --> 00:31:09.805


I'm all.00:31:09.805 --> 00:31:10.625


That's my best friend.00:31:10.625 --> 00:31:10.965


I'm sorry.00:31:10.965 --> 00:31:11.626


I was on the phone with her.00:31:11.626 --> 00:31:13.772


She doesn't really talk like that.00:31:14.474 --> 00:31:15.397


I got to work on it.00:31:15.397 --> 00:31:16.240


I can't cuss.00:31:20.682 --> 00:31:21.523


It's so trash.00:31:21.523 --> 00:31:24.346


Well, what you said in the car was what About the half off?00:31:25.385 --> 00:31:29.127


Oh my God, no see, I just don't like it.00:31:29.490 --> 00:31:30.516


Yeah, I feel like it.00:31:30.971 --> 00:31:37.862


I don't want to be trashy though I don't think you're trashy at all, but I do think our kids do mirror what we do, yeah.00:31:37.862 --> 00:31:39.897


So I do think it's like like this is dumb.00:31:50.309 --> 00:31:51.971


But when I'm driving and texting, my kids are gonna drive and text.00:31:51.971 --> 00:31:52.662


Yeah, they do what we do, not what we say not to do.00:31:52.662 --> 00:31:53.701


So I do think like if you want your kids not to cuss, it's probably good, you don't.00:31:53.701 --> 00:31:54.910


Yes, you know what I mean because they do what we do, so yours are gonna have sex wings.00:31:54.910 --> 00:31:55.721


I don't do that, I'm just kidding.00:31:55.881 --> 00:31:56.582


I'm not into that.00:31:56.761 --> 00:32:06.000


I do think a lot of it has to do with how you were raised, because, like I see, like I know people who cuss all the time, who are my age and it's like you look at their parents and their parents are dropping F-bombs every other word.00:32:06.320 --> 00:32:07.321


And I don't think you cuss a lot.00:32:07.402 --> 00:32:11.089


It's when I'm mad, I can't hold it and I need to work on that.00:32:11.089 --> 00:32:13.699


No, but I think sometimes it's like you gotta let it out.00:32:14.431 --> 00:32:17.039


And sometimes it's justified by like oh shoot, I've gone too far.00:32:17.039 --> 00:32:22.596


But like I think yeah, I think I don't know my brother cusses.00:32:22.596 --> 00:32:25.468


Like yeah, people cuss.00:32:25.669 --> 00:32:25.909


Yeah.00:32:25.929 --> 00:32:32.488


Kids cuss, yeah, yeah, yeah, see, like, yeah, but like not bad, but like they do cuss.00:32:32.488 --> 00:32:34.874


Yeah, my kids cuss because he cusses, you know.00:32:34.874 --> 00:32:39.164


Yeah, like it's like, it's like you're around, well, and that's something I'm going through with Reed right now.00:32:39.204 --> 00:32:45.733


It's like he's now that he's in high school and he's surrounded by he's on the baseball team Like clearly they all are cussing, dropping F-bombs all the time.00:32:45.733 --> 00:32:49.859


And then, like, when we're around the baseball guys, I'll hear him say something and I'm like what are you doing?00:32:49.859 --> 00:32:50.941


And it's like out of character.00:32:51.085 --> 00:32:52.612


Yes, and I'm like don't talk like that.00:32:52.644 --> 00:32:55.510


And then I sent him a Bible verse about like watching your tongue the other day.00:32:59.767 --> 00:33:02.808


He's like this was really good.00:33:02.848 --> 00:33:04.430


Thank you, love you.00:33:04.430 --> 00:33:06.832


Like I can't even say it, say it please.00:33:06.832 --> 00:33:10.673


Ken paid CJ $30 last night to do her report.00:33:10.673 --> 00:33:12.474


Fully did it.00:33:12.474 --> 00:33:14.895


She didn't even sit there.00:33:14.895 --> 00:33:17.317


She's like I'm going to go watch my show.00:33:17.317 --> 00:33:23.121


I'm like and I let it happen, like it's horrible but like that's a life skill.00:33:23.121 --> 00:33:25.742


If you can't do something, find someone who can.00:33:25.742 --> 00:33:26.063


I agree.00:33:27.484 --> 00:33:28.311


I do that all the time.00:33:28.311 --> 00:33:28.855


It's their own money.00:33:28.855 --> 00:33:29.179


Yeah, totally.00:33:29.179 --> 00:33:29.944


I don't think it's that horrible.00:33:29.944 --> 00:33:32.814


But no, they're really cute and you're really cute to each other.00:33:32.814 --> 00:33:34.108


You're not nasty to each other.00:33:34.128 --> 00:33:36.830


Yeah, I mean, we get nasty, like me, and Reagan get after it.00:33:39.587 --> 00:33:43.632


Yeah, I remember when you were younger it was like you would battle like fist fight.00:33:43.632 --> 00:33:47.056


Yes, I've never seen them be anything but loving to each other.00:33:47.056 --> 00:33:49.298


No, I think they like I've never heard.00:33:49.298 --> 00:33:54.874


So her parents were high school sweethearts they got married, like how old were they?00:33:55.015 --> 00:33:56.238


my mom was 21.00:33:56.258 --> 00:34:09.367


I'm pretty sure she had riley around 22 or 23 yeah, they were high school sweethearts from like freshman year yes, my mom was 14 or 15 when she met my dad, yeah, as well as her aunt and uncles, were all high school sweethearts that married their high school sweetheart.00:34:09.547 --> 00:34:12.987


So question so I and your older sister married her high school sweetheart.00:34:12.987 --> 00:34:18.849


So do you feel like a pressure to meet the one in high school and did you feel that to meet the one and get married?00:34:19.188 --> 00:34:29.967


No, oh that's good, Because I was like I don't know, I don't feel like you have to, like you're not going to always marry your high school sweetheart, and like, so I just went.00:34:29.967 --> 00:34:31.371


I'm going through a breakup right now.00:34:31.371 --> 00:34:33.438


Um, I'm two months into being broken up with which?00:34:33.438 --> 00:34:34.902

Look at you yeah.00:34:36.005 --> 00:34:37.893


The people are going to be like banging down yeah.00:34:39.184 --> 00:34:40.949


We'll post your snap below.00:34:40.949 --> 00:34:43.096


Exactly Good girl too.00:34:43.255 --> 00:34:43.617


Yeah.00:34:43.617 --> 00:34:56.389


He was my first boyfriend and we dated, so I didn't have my first kiss till junior year.00:34:56.389 --> 00:34:58.172


I was kind of, I love that yeah, so I was going into my summer of junior year.00:34:58.193 --> 00:35:01.721


I was old, but I love that but then it was meaningful and with the right person.00:35:01.721 --> 00:35:02.782


No, it wasn't with Jackson.00:35:02.782 --> 00:35:03.485


Oh, edit, edit it never works.00:35:03.485 --> 00:35:06.235


But okay, okay, so, yeah, so it wasn't.00:35:06.235 --> 00:35:07.219


Was it meaningful after all that?00:35:07.219 --> 00:35:08.605


No, I had my first kiss.00:35:08.605 --> 00:35:09.206


It was stupid.00:35:09.206 --> 00:35:10.652


He was like were you feeling pressured?00:35:10.652 --> 00:35:11.554


Like I haven't kissed yet?00:35:11.554 --> 00:35:13.989


Oh no, I didn't care, oh good because I could have.00:35:14.411 --> 00:35:17.708


Yeah, I just like, I don't know, I was weird, I was like once you wait that long.00:35:17.708 --> 00:35:20.679


I feel like it's like yeah, and so then I kissed this dude.00:35:20.679 --> 00:35:24.510


He was no so stupid, and from then I kind of went a little.00:35:24.510 --> 00:35:26.514


I'm like oh, I had one, like now I can kiss some people.00:35:26.514 --> 00:35:29.139


So then you have a rule about the hands tell us about that rule.00:35:29.159 --> 00:35:30.682


Yes, so my older sister, riley.00:35:30.762 --> 00:35:31.505


She gave us a rule.00:35:31.505 --> 00:35:35.300


She said in high school you get 10, you get 10 fingers to kiss people.00:35:35.300 --> 00:35:37.288


You can only have 10 kisses in the four years of high school.00:35:37.288 --> 00:35:38.833


Oh yeah, and you can't go past that.00:35:38.833 --> 00:35:39.335


You don't need to go.00:35:39.335 --> 00:35:40.505


And then, where did she get that?00:35:40.505 --> 00:35:49.539


Not from your mom, she just made that up because once I got to the age of like, oh I just have one they were each other's first kiss that's adorable.00:35:49.639 --> 00:35:50.726


Yeah, I love that.00:35:50.726 --> 00:35:51.949


So do you feel like thinking?00:35:51.989 --> 00:35:53.614


how much baggage they don't have for you.00:35:53.713 --> 00:35:54.615


Is that why you do?00:35:54.615 --> 00:35:55.186


You feel like that?00:35:55.186 --> 00:35:59.646


Obviously your parents, but you feel like having an older sister that'd be such a good example.00:35:59.646 --> 00:36:00.768


Like did that impact you?00:36:01.110 --> 00:36:01.851


I feel like it did.00:36:01.851 --> 00:36:04.126


But also Riley and her are very different and I think that's okay.00:36:04.126 --> 00:36:11.016


Yeah, so I think she like had Riley has had the most impact in my life for sure, like hands down, yeah, and and like multiple ways.00:36:11.016 --> 00:36:13.579


Um, like she's, I had a hard.00:36:13.579 --> 00:36:14.306


I hated high school.00:36:14.306 --> 00:36:17.675


I was not a high school person, had a hard upbringing throughout high school.00:36:17.675 --> 00:36:20.630


I was at O'Connor, transferred to Ridge, transferred back to O'Connor.00:36:20.630 --> 00:36:21.434


It was just a mess Like.00:36:21.494 --> 00:36:22.175


I didn't.00:36:31.905 --> 00:36:32.744


I wasn't a high school girl, I wasn't a friend group girl.00:36:32.744 --> 00:36:35.740


Like I didn't like going out, I was insecure, like I went through a lot and I feel like Riley is like the reason that like I, like I found joy in high school and like she helped me through all the that's like before school.00:36:35.740 --> 00:36:36.668


I remember this literally like it was yesterday, my freshman year.00:36:36.668 --> 00:36:41.307


We were sitting in the hallway waiting for the bell to ring and she was with all the softball girls and I was sitting next to her.00:36:41.307 --> 00:36:43.110


I was crying because I didn't like my outfit.00:36:43.110 --> 00:36:47.016


I'm literally sitting in the hallway with my sister crying and she was just hugging me.00:36:47.016 --> 00:36:51.166


She's like you look great, like, and it's like if I didn't have my sister there, I would be in the bathroom stall, like yeah.00:36:51.166 --> 00:36:55.036


So I think like Riley has shaped me a lot into who I am today.00:36:55.036 --> 00:37:03.045


But she is the one who came up with the 10 finger rule and then I had my first kiss, kissed nine people and then you did wait for real.00:37:03.166 --> 00:37:05.769


So did you know like I'm gonna go to nine and wait?00:37:05.769 --> 00:37:08.112


No, or did you just it just happened that way Okay.00:37:08.132 --> 00:37:08.572


It was weird.00:37:08.653 --> 00:37:08.793


Like.00:37:08.833 --> 00:37:10.175


I kissed my first I've.00:37:10.175 --> 00:37:13.739


Maybe there was eight and then Jackson was the ninth, or I need to stop saying his name.00:37:13.739 --> 00:37:16.690


It's fine, yeah, yeah, but yeah.00:37:16.690 --> 00:37:25.952


So then I started dating Jackson, my I started dating him my junior year relationship and then we just broke up two months ago.00:37:25.952 --> 00:37:33.094


Um, so I don't, I didn't feel ever pressured to marry my high school sweetheart or marry like marry him.00:37:33.134 --> 00:38:01.195


Like I thought if it's meant to be, it's going to be, and if clearly it wasn't, so yeah, and I think that's why I'm doing so well, and the breakup is like like you have a piece that it wasn't yeah, like if we were supposed to be dating right now, we would not be broken up like well, and what's cool for us who are and we talked about this last week, about how this next generation is so much better than what we think it is Like you didn't break up for any big reason Right, you know what I mean and you're holding strong, Like if I, was you going through a breakup like that, I wouldn't have been as strong as you're being.00:38:01.255 --> 00:38:09.277


At that age I would have been driving down to Tucson like every day, Like you love me, you don't know it, but you do, you know, like I would be a train wreck, yeah.00:38:09.697 --> 00:38:14.155


Or going out all the time and making not good choices, posting Like I'd be being an idiot.00:38:14.175 --> 00:38:14.317


Yeah.00:38:14.646 --> 00:38:18.454


And, like you're not doing any of those things, you're leaning into, like your business that you started.00:38:18.454 --> 00:38:20.047


You're leaning into your fitness.00:38:20.047 --> 00:38:22.329


You're leaning into going to church, diving into your.00:38:23.610 --> 00:38:24.331


Like a piece.00:38:24.331 --> 00:38:30.918


I feel like that's the biggest thing is you have a piece that like if we were meant to be together, we would, and we obviously aren't.00:38:30.918 --> 00:38:33.161


Like I did not have that piece with any boyfriend.00:38:34.684 --> 00:38:35.608


No, I was like we are meant to be.00:38:35.630 --> 00:38:37.860


I was like you don't know it, yet I'll kill you.00:38:38.987 --> 00:38:40.215


It's getting weird with the threats.00:38:40.659 --> 00:38:43.052


Like I'm concerned, she holds a knife up every time.00:38:49.746 --> 00:38:54.894


Yeah, I'm not, I'm never gonna hurt anybody and I'm not violent, and I am not.00:38:55.275 --> 00:38:56.056


It's so weird.00:38:56.918 --> 00:39:00.313


Go ahead though well, I definitely have like hard days, hard hours.00:39:00.333 --> 00:39:40.474


Like I remember I texted you last week and I just like when I write out my prayers and I just get so emotional because I feel like throughout the process like I I'm just doing my best to like forgive in my heart and like let go of what it was or how it is now and like know that like the last two and a half years, there was so much good that came from it and like I'm not gonna sit here and dwell on what it could have been or what it's not now or how things are going now, because it's like there's literally nothing I can do and like me being sad over the situation and like, yeah, I'm not like sad sometimes and it's okay to like feel those emotions and I miss him and whatever, but at the end of the day, like all I can do is move forward and like, yeah, learn what's next for me and like it's a very mature mindset, though it took me a long time to get to learn to let go of things I can't control.00:39:40.516 --> 00:39:41.846


I think that's like the biggest thing.00:39:41.846 --> 00:39:44.869


Even still, I still work on like I can't control that.00:39:44.869 --> 00:39:48.795


So it's not that deep Reese is who coined, it's not that deep Reese.00:39:48.934 --> 00:39:52.219


uses it in the correct context, not every five seconds.00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:54.807


It's like my whole family's done with it.00:39:54.807 --> 00:39:55.869


I'm like it's not that deep.00:39:55.869 --> 00:39:56.952


Do your homework, or don't?00:39:56.952 --> 00:39:57.672


It's not that deep.00:39:57.672 --> 00:39:59.016


And Maddie's like huh.00:39:59.016 --> 00:40:00.679


I'm like Get an F, it's not that deep.00:40:03.108 --> 00:40:03.889


Everything is in that deep.00:40:03.889 --> 00:40:10.829


I girls, so I feel like from the outside obviously I've known your family because of her, but I'm like not super close to your family.00:40:10.829 --> 00:40:12.594


So I've always known.00:40:12.594 --> 00:40:18.375


Your parents are amazing and like all the kids seem to be really good kids making good choices, doing good things.00:40:18.375 --> 00:40:22.012


But I never would have known that you weren't like happy in high school.00:40:22.012 --> 00:40:23.615


So that's like really interesting.00:40:23.615 --> 00:40:31.617


So do you feel like now that you're out of high school Cause I think that a lot of kids can relate to that Like do you feel like you're much happier now?00:40:31.617 --> 00:40:32.619


Oh, so much happier.00:40:32.920 --> 00:40:34.186


Right, it just wasn't your vibe.00:40:34.186 --> 00:40:52.021


No, I couldn't do the fakeness and I'm I'm a very real person, like I say it how it is, my emotions are all out in my heart, like I'm very and I just don't like the drama that's involved in high school, the friend groups, the comparing, like I just think high school is such a negative space and you're surrounded by nothing but negativity.00:40:52.264 --> 00:40:55.070


So did you have social media in high school?00:40:55.070 --> 00:40:57.757


Yeah, so do you feel like that had any?00:40:57.757 --> 00:40:59.909


Did that impact one way or the other?00:40:59.909 --> 00:41:00.650


At all or not?00:41:00.650 --> 00:41:01.733


Didn't affect it at all?00:41:01.753 --> 00:41:02.235


Yeah for sure.00:41:02.235 --> 00:41:03.666


I think everyone's going to go through their like.00:41:03.666 --> 00:41:08.193


Everyone has their own high school experience, so this is just my experience, because some people could love it and think it's so positive.00:41:08.213 --> 00:41:19.449


Well, no, I loved mine and Ben hated his, so yes, Um, but I do think that social media cause I would have FOMO all the time, like fear of missing out, like I was always like, oh, I wasn't invited, or oh and I didn't think.00:41:19.449 --> 00:41:22.032


I don't think until like my junior senior year and like now.00:41:22.032 --> 00:41:24.934


I don't get FOMO at all, like oh, great, like you do too.00:41:24.934 --> 00:41:31.871


But definitely like my freshman sophomore part of junior year, like seeing people like oh dang, I don't look like that.00:41:31.871 --> 00:41:33.210


Oh dang, I'm not doing that.00:41:33.331 --> 00:41:35.449


Yeah, yes, like it gets you.00:41:35.510 --> 00:41:40.592


Yeah, and I think I was insecure, like I wasn't confident, which is mind-blowing to me?00:41:45.590 --> 00:41:49.255


Yeah, Because you are, you like like, like it added to the insecurity.00:41:49.255 --> 00:41:51.117


Yes, yes, for sure, and I had.00:41:51.117 --> 00:41:53.260


I went through bad friendships.00:41:53.260 --> 00:41:57.179


I was put through a lot like my sophomore year during COVID.00:41:57.179 --> 00:41:59.445


I was online school, I never went in person.00:41:59.445 --> 00:42:07.237


Um, and I think if I didn't have my family and my siblings like that, I wouldn't, I wouldn't have been able to be who I am today.00:42:07.237 --> 00:42:16.625


Like I've always relied on my siblings as my friends, which is like crazy to say, but like I've never I've had I have like three close friends that I like consistently talk to and hang out with and I wouldn't want it any other way.00:42:16.625 --> 00:42:24.353


Like I've just never been like a friend group girl, because I've always felt uncomfortable, insecure, at the bottom of the totem pole and I just think that's silly.00:42:33.144 --> 00:42:53.449


Well, and I think on the outside Tana, my sister and I talk about you guys actually because you're like the older generation for our family and, um, sometimes I feel like our family has like a different like vibe being a part of something like there's some times like negativity because we're such a big family, like, if you don't know, like our um, my husband's dad and your dad's dad they're one of 11, so there's like a big like.00:42:53.449 --> 00:42:55.016


It's always like the whole tour of the whole tour.00:42:55.016 --> 00:42:59.838


Well, it's like because there's 11 siblings that all got married and had kids and stayed in phoenix.00:42:59.838 --> 00:43:06.416


Yeah, like usually everybody moves away or this or that, but so there's like 250 immediate family from that side.00:43:06.416 --> 00:43:07.527


So that's where that comes from.00:43:07.527 --> 00:43:12.213


And there's like, um, sometimes I feel like there's like a confidence in being a part of like a big family.00:43:12.726 --> 00:43:19.132


And then in the second part, I think like Kyle and his siblings were one of four and they were very confident with each other.00:43:19.132 --> 00:43:22.530


The same, they didn't hang out with friends a lot, they're each other's best friends.00:43:22.530 --> 00:43:27.775


They like had a lot of confidence from being home, so they didn't long to be accepted at school.00:43:27.775 --> 00:43:31.572


Like Kyle wasn't from a friend group guy either, like they weren't like so into.00:43:31.572 --> 00:43:34.771


They were into sports, yeah, but they weren't into, like, the high school.00:43:34.791 --> 00:43:45.449


That's why, like Maddie's, like what is all this, you know, and I'm like, well, this is what I was doing, but my brother was six years older so I didn't like feel like I fit in at home as much, like there wasn't much home.00:43:45.449 --> 00:43:47.831


Yeah, like I go home and no one's there, yeah, you know.00:43:47.831 --> 00:43:49.315


So I was like with my friends all the time.00:43:49.315 --> 00:43:56.054


But I think for you, like, I think there's a confidence in being a part of, like a family that wants to spend time together, that enjoys each other.00:43:56.054 --> 00:44:06.990


That I feel like sometimes, maybe, like with you, I feel like you don't realize how much that is part of why maybe sometimes your kids don't care about going out all the time because they're confident with where they're at.00:44:06.990 --> 00:44:13.059


Like your mom was very like Reese, don't, don't go out, yeah, your mom didn't care that you were like going out.00:44:14.485 --> 00:44:16.295


She's always like been proud that you're different.00:44:16.617 --> 00:44:21.293


I feel like, yeah, From my perspective my mom has never like put pressure on, like what we can or can't do.00:44:21.293 --> 00:44:28.914


Like she trusted us and like she knew we'd make the right decisions and like she would watch our life 360 and make sure I'm not speeding and make sure I'm home at curfew.00:44:28.914 --> 00:44:36.594


But like I was always very communicative, like hey, we're going here like if I did go out, like if I went to a after party, after prom or something.00:44:37.016 --> 00:44:38.989


So when you were struggling, was your?00:44:38.989 --> 00:44:40.211


How involved were your parents?00:44:40.211 --> 00:44:43.027


Were they like were worried about you, or were they just like you'll figure it out?00:44:43.027 --> 00:44:43.807


No, not worried at all.00:44:43.807 --> 00:44:44.068


Yeah.00:44:44.208 --> 00:44:45.090


No, they didn like.00:44:45.090 --> 00:44:50.197


I talked to my sister about it, but like they weren't, they were like even now like throughout my breakup, like they don't.00:44:50.197 --> 00:44:53.657


They don't really ask questions, they just let me like they don't.00:44:53.677 --> 00:44:56.867


my mom doesn't ask, but they also don't act like she's, like they're worried.00:44:56.947 --> 00:44:57.688


It's never that vibe.00:44:57.788 --> 00:44:59.208


It's like you'll figure it everything.00:44:59.208 --> 00:45:14.074


Yeah, and like I don't think I learned that until the last two months, but like, literally like mentality and your outlook is everything.00:45:14.295 --> 00:45:14.795


I love that.00:45:14.936 --> 00:45:15.117


Yeah.00:45:15.117 --> 00:45:21.670


What's crazy, though, about you guys making good choices is your parents, like, aren't the strictest.00:45:21.670 --> 00:45:24.547


If you were to say, like Tisha asked you in the car, are your parents strict?00:45:24.547 --> 00:45:25.628


And you're like no, no.00:45:25.628 --> 00:45:31.277


And I, when I decided to get my kids Instagram, your mom was an inspiration.00:45:31.277 --> 00:45:37.927


I always tell her that, yeah, because you guys had it.00:45:37.947 --> 00:45:40.059


And her sister, jess, who I love too she, we were talking about it once and I was like cause you watch?00:45:40.059 --> 00:45:44.775


You know, from afar, like we haven't always been as close, you know, through different stages, you're busy, but I would watch.00:45:44.775 --> 00:45:48.077


And her kids you know your siblings always posted such positive things.00:45:48.077 --> 00:45:49.759


It wasn't a lot of selfies.00:45:49.759 --> 00:45:53.061


It wasn't a lot of like group hangouts that made other people feel bad.00:45:53.061 --> 00:46:01.675


It was very like Bible highlighted Bible, bible verses, this and that, and they're all really good looking and in like all those things, but it was always like a positive.00:46:01.695 --> 00:46:04.492


You could tell and I would ask her and she's like they'll figure it out.00:46:04.492 --> 00:46:09.246


Like, and Jess told me, always trust them until they give you a reason not to.00:46:09.246 --> 00:46:12.378


But why, like, take it away if they haven't even ruined it yet?00:46:12.378 --> 00:46:25.132


Like, if they haven't given you a reason to take it away, cause I think sometimes that happens with parents, like we're not letting our kids do things, not because of them, but because of so-and-so's kid did this, so we're like trying to protect them instead of like empowering them.00:46:25.132 --> 00:46:25.934


Yeah, you know what?00:46:25.974 --> 00:46:36.793


I mean Um, my mom put she would have screen time on our phones so we could only have like when we were probably when I was a freshman and sophomore even she had like, okay, you have to be off your phone on 11 o'clock at night, she would shut, my phone would shut off.00:46:36.793 --> 00:46:46.813


She never did the phone in the room thing because she trusted us, but there was definitely a couple of times where she walked in and I was on my phone past when I was supposed to be and that's why she put the screen time on Um.00:46:46.813 --> 00:46:53.501


So screen time was a big thing for probably middle school and high school and like time limits on social media.00:46:53.501 --> 00:46:54.487


Reed had it.00:46:54.487 --> 00:46:58.192


He just got it taken off though, because he's getting to the age where she's like okay, like, do your thing.00:46:58.192 --> 00:47:03.148


If you're going to stay on your phone until one in the morning, you're going to be tired and rude the next morning and that's on you Like um.00:47:03.148 --> 00:47:08.652


But I think social media like my dad for example, he does not like when we post selfies.00:47:09.114 --> 00:47:10.135


I don't either.00:47:10.474 --> 00:47:14.077


So that's a big reason why I've never posted pictures of myself Like he.00:47:14.077 --> 00:47:17.240


Every time I would, it would be like why are you doing this?00:47:17.240 --> 00:47:17.621


For who?00:47:17.621 --> 00:47:18.202


For what?00:47:18.202 --> 00:47:21.288


Like so people can comment that you look good.00:47:21.288 --> 00:47:22.692


And I would always get mad because I'm like dad.00:47:22.692 --> 00:47:23.514


It's Instagram Like, yeah.00:47:23.534 --> 00:47:24.496


I look good, everybody's doing it.00:47:24.496 --> 00:47:28.485


Everybody's doing it.00:47:28.585 --> 00:47:39.708


yeah, yeah, I would if I was you, I would be in a bathing suit every day, you know so like I'm gonna cut my head on her body and start posting now, but I feel like it's different now because I'm 20, so like not that he doesn't have a say yeah, but it's time it's different you have to let.00:47:39.827 --> 00:47:48.141


Yeah and I feel like that's why our social media may have like, but you feel like him talking to you and saying those things like helped you, because it helped you evaluate.00:47:48.141 --> 00:47:48.885


Why am I posting?00:47:48.985 --> 00:47:58.467


yeah, you know, and I'd be like nervous to post it, because I'm like, oh, I don't want dad to get mad, yeah, and I think now like maybe then I was like this is so stupid, like why can't I post an Instagram selfie?00:47:58.467 --> 00:47:59.971


Like it's not that deep, it's literally.00:47:59.971 --> 00:48:05.992


But like now I'm sitting here and I'm like, okay, like I was 17 years old, I don't need to be posting pictures of myself.00:48:06.152 --> 00:48:08.838


Yeah, well, and he sees it from the guy perspective, from a dad.00:48:08.838 --> 00:48:12.704


Yeah, yes, yeah you don't want that kind of attention or to seek that approval.00:48:12.704 --> 00:48:18.217


Yes, yeah, for sure so, as far as like going out, like if you were to go to a party, what would they say?00:48:18.217 --> 00:48:19.228


Like would they let you?00:48:19.248 --> 00:48:23.786


oh yeah, they wouldn't now, or like in high school in high school oh yeah, they would let me.00:48:23.786 --> 00:48:24.447


They would.00:48:24.447 --> 00:48:26.070


Are you drinking?00:48:26.070 --> 00:48:27.092


Who's driving?00:48:27.092 --> 00:48:28.936


Like those type of questions.00:48:28.936 --> 00:48:33.472


But like they would, let me do it and like they wouldn't so like are you drinking?00:48:33.512 --> 00:48:34.335


did they let you?00:48:34.456 --> 00:48:38.965


they were fine with you drinking um yeah as long as I was honest about it, I only drank a couple times like I wasn't crazy.00:48:38.965 --> 00:48:40.550


I didn't really ever.00:48:40.891 --> 00:48:45.829


I probably got drunk once but it wasn't a forbidden thing, did all your siblings drink no reagan00:48:45.869 --> 00:48:46.490


barely does.00:48:46.490 --> 00:48:47.813


Reagan doesn't really at all like.00:48:47.813 --> 00:48:50.400


She's maybe had a couple drinks, but she's never been drunk.00:48:50.400 --> 00:48:51.483


Yeah, reed doesn't drink.00:48:51.483 --> 00:48:52.324


Clearly he's a freshman.00:48:52.324 --> 00:48:53.588


Riley never once drank.00:48:53.588 --> 00:48:56.876


Yeah, um, maybe like a couple drinks, but she never like drank.00:48:56.876 --> 00:48:57.376


I drank.00:48:57.376 --> 00:49:04.286


I probably got drunk once in high school at like after prom when I was dating and you told your parents, oh yeah, my parents knew.00:49:04.286 --> 00:49:17.356


Yeah, I was like honest, my mom doesn't like to hear it though, so she'll like kind of ask, but then she's like okay, like I don't like okay, but it's cool that you feel safe to go to her because I'd be scared to hide it Like I just I would feel out of respect?00:49:17.416 --> 00:49:21.389


Yes, like I would just feel bad for hiding it, and I feel like I know they're not going to get mad.00:49:21.389 --> 00:49:25.873


Like the worst thing, my, what happened?00:49:25.873 --> 00:49:33.329


Like she gets like like just yeah, and she thinks because she takes one drink of beer and she's like drunk, drunk, and so she's like like what happened?00:49:33.329 --> 00:49:34.135


Like how much did you drink?00:49:34.135 --> 00:49:35.666


Like actually, I don't want to know, I don't want to know.00:49:35.686 --> 00:49:49.380


Like she's like very, just, like innocent in that sense, um, but yeah, I was always honest with them and they didn't care like they were going to yell at you.00:49:49.400 --> 00:49:55.181


No, I mean, like sometimes I would be like, well, like, maybe I'll keep that detail out, but like it's my mom.00:49:55.201 --> 00:49:55.601


Which is normal.00:49:55.601 --> 00:49:56.425


Which is normal?00:49:56.425 --> 00:49:57.530


Yes, I think that's normal.00:49:57.625 --> 00:50:01.795


Like as my mom, you don't need to know every detail of the night.00:50:01.876 --> 00:50:08.945


Oh, totally so.00:50:08.945 --> 00:50:09.260


I think also your parents set good examples.00:50:09.260 --> 00:50:09.608


They're not big drinkers, no, they don't.00:50:09.608 --> 00:50:12.539


So I think it's like something that's not forbidden, but not also a thing that you thought was so cool.00:50:12.581 --> 00:50:14.269


It's not like, oh, we party every weekend.00:50:14.269 --> 00:50:16.188


Yeah, so it's like an example thing.00:50:16.268 --> 00:50:18.355


Yes, how did they help you instill your faith?00:50:18.355 --> 00:50:23.409


Like you guys all have very strong faith and values.00:50:23.409 --> 00:50:27.871


Yeah, Someone that's constantly like you know, like little things, like should they go to FCA?00:50:27.871 --> 00:50:28.432


Do I make them?00:50:28.432 --> 00:50:29.152


Do they go on their own?00:50:29.152 --> 00:50:34.018


Like those are things I'm like, do I push this now or do I let them want to on their own?00:50:34.018 --> 00:50:37.561


You know, and like I know, you guys are all pretty good about going at church.00:50:37.561 --> 00:50:39.442


I see you, even if you go by yourself.00:50:39.442 --> 00:50:56.135


Yeah, Was that something they pushed or was it just like normal at home, where just always, always, like I know they set good examples because they have seen them there a lot on Saturday nights, but I also know you guys were in sports yeah, I think growing up we always went and then when we got busy, like it was harder to go, but they still.00:50:56.195 --> 00:50:58.766


We still tried our best to go to Saturday nights as a family.00:50:58.766 --> 00:51:09.166


And then once we got to high school Riley was a big part of that like, really, yeah, riley was like pushed my parents to get to church, like hey, we're going to church tonight.00:51:09.166 --> 00:51:18.447


Like I think Riley, like, once she got to high school and she made the decision and like, yeah, she did it on her own, I think then she was a big part to like keep us going to church, strong in our faith.00:51:18.447 --> 00:51:22.076


All the things like my mom we would do before elementary school.00:51:22.076 --> 00:51:23.347


We would read the devotional of the day.00:51:23.347 --> 00:51:29.766


Like we had like a little what's it prayers calling that book and she would read it to us every morning, whether it was on the way to school or at home.00:51:29.766 --> 00:51:33.829


Like she would always read the like daily devotional and that was like something we did.00:51:33.869 --> 00:51:34.351


I love that.00:51:34.391 --> 00:51:34.793


Me too.00:51:34.793 --> 00:51:36.864


But then that like fell off eventually with time.00:51:36.864 --> 00:51:53.952


But I know that I think it was like throughout elementary she would read it is part of our morning and then once Riley got to high school, I think she was a big part of like keeping that like okay, we're going to church, we're reading our Bible.00:51:54.545 --> 00:51:58.983


And that's just crazy, because she even gave you the 10 finger, like your mom, didn't tell you anything about how many people you should kiss.00:51:59.166 --> 00:52:00.965


It's crazy how much a sibling can affect the family.00:52:09.175 --> 00:52:11.237


Yeah, I'm like's it goes unsaid, like they don't.00:52:11.237 --> 00:52:17.226


They don't talk about their faith and they're not in their Bible every single day, like highlighting, and like Reese, look at what I'm reading.00:52:17.226 --> 00:52:18.590


Like I think it's very.00:52:18.590 --> 00:52:22.204


I see God through them but they don't even know that.00:52:22.204 --> 00:52:29.146


Like it's like how they treat each other, how they talk to each other or how my mom is like my mom is like.00:52:29.166 --> 00:52:30.552


My mom is a self like she's a saint.00:52:30.572 --> 00:52:33.222


Yeah, she's literally like innocent and selfless and like in all areas of life.00:52:33.222 --> 00:52:40.023


Yes and I think just like seeing how my mom is is like seeing her faith, if that makes sense.00:52:40.023 --> 00:52:40.744


I love that without her.00:52:40.744 --> 00:52:42.369


It's not her pushing it down your throat.00:52:42.409 --> 00:52:46.827


It's through like action, yeah, or not even what she's saying, it's just how she is.00:52:46.827 --> 00:52:48.811


Yeah, wow, I'm all.00:52:51.335 --> 00:52:52.998


Like she's just we got to go.00:52:52.998 --> 00:53:06.775


No, I love that, though, because I think sometimes we put pressure on ourselves to like do all these extra things, but we don't realize just by being the best we can be, our kids will take some of that on, you know.00:53:06.775 --> 00:53:09.518


And then it's so cool that Riley had that much of an impact.00:53:09.518 --> 00:53:19.851


I know Maddie is so all of a sudden, I feel like maybe you even talked to her about this, because since you've been around, it's been more yeah, so like almost maybe you're impacting Maddie, like that.00:53:19.851 --> 00:53:21.195


But she's all of a sudden reading her Bible.00:53:21.195 --> 00:53:24.449


Yeah, and now she's like and you're not reading your Bible.00:53:24.449 --> 00:53:30.139


I'm like, oh crap, now I got to read my Bible she's like, and you and dad aren't reading your Bible and I am every day and I can tell the difference.00:53:30.199 --> 00:53:30.925


And I'm like what the?00:53:30.925 --> 00:53:32.429


But like it's like weird.00:53:32.429 --> 00:53:34.996


I've never even told her to do that, like I don't you know.00:53:34.996 --> 00:53:46.157


And it's like now she's starting to push me and she's like I went to church today and you guys, didn't.00:53:46.177 --> 00:53:47.998


Yeah, so, like I, we have to like step it up.00:53:47.998 --> 00:53:51.063


But what I also love about your family is you are a sports family.00:53:51.063 --> 00:54:03.751


All of your kids are very involved in club and and all different types of sports and so I know, like when it came to like family dinners and stuff I know I've talked to Ryan about this her mom, um, and I've been like Ryan, what do we do?00:54:03.751 --> 00:54:04.512


Cause I'm putting pressure.00:54:04.512 --> 00:54:09.418


She's like, yeah, and we get McDonald's and we don't have family dinner a lot, because four kids are five places.00:54:09.559 --> 00:54:11.061


It's impossible, yeah, yeah.00:54:11.061 --> 00:54:18.210


Like it was like my mom would prep some dinner and eat it when you can take it to go.00:54:18.210 --> 00:54:21.913


Like if she would always pick, read up from one practice and go to a different one and she would just bring him and like in foil on a little plate, like bring him dinner.00:54:21.913 --> 00:54:26.918


Or like if I'm going from A to B, then it's like hey, then it's like hey, pick yourself something on the, pick yourself up something on the way.00:54:26.918 --> 00:54:29.280


Like we never did really have family dinners.00:54:29.340 --> 00:54:38.288


Like yeah, but you're such a tight-knit family, I think sometimes we think if we're not doing these A, B and C, that we're messing up and it's like it's not that deep, it's not See how.00:54:38.288 --> 00:54:40.090


It's like it's fair.00:54:40.090 --> 00:54:41.010


No, that one was fair.00:54:41.070 --> 00:54:44.514


It was fair oh my God.00:54:44.635 --> 00:54:45.856


Oh, but it's true.00:54:45.856 --> 00:54:48.860


No, yeah, like I'm analyzing the crap out of that and it's not that deep.00:54:48.860 --> 00:54:49.581


That one works.00:54:49.581 --> 00:54:50.929


Yeah, like it's not.00:54:50.929 --> 00:55:01.949


I feel like, in a way, like you can also take pressure off of our ourselves as parents on like just being the best we can be instead of making sure we're doing all these things like the Easter egg hunt and the this and the that.00:55:01.949 --> 00:55:06.315


You know, like that stuff isn't what's going to stick with them as much as just like who we are.00:55:06.516 --> 00:55:09.199


Yeah, you know, and your mom is very loving.00:55:09.199 --> 00:55:12.530


Like she's the type that when I was first in the family, I went on bed rest with Maddie.00:55:12.530 --> 00:55:18.693


I barely knew her and she would come by like once a week and bring me breakfast and always made me feel included, always made me feel loved.00:55:18.693 --> 00:55:24.474


But again, she's not like an outward, like preacher personality, but you feel God when you're around her.00:55:24.474 --> 00:55:28.719


Like you're like you are like Jesus and you want to like hang out with her.00:55:28.719 --> 00:55:30.769


Yes, and she's drop-dead gorgeous.00:55:30.769 --> 00:55:32.496


Oh yeah, so gorgeous.00:55:32.496 --> 00:55:33.990


Such a like a good person.00:55:33.990 --> 00:55:40.134


But I remember, even as a young mom, like she wasn't stressed about bedtimes and she wasn't stressed about all these things.00:55:40.134 --> 00:55:56.206


She was just loving her kids no-transcript home mom.00:55:56.226 --> 00:56:01.306


She didn't work while we were younger, until we got into high schools, when she was like, okay, I need to do something.00:56:01.306 --> 00:56:06.896


But she like, literally she was just loved being a mom and she loved being at home.00:56:06.896 --> 00:56:14.010


She loved doing all the things, like the laundry, the, the making the lunches Like she still makes Rita Reagan's lunch every day, every night, like she makes.00:56:14.030 --> 00:56:16.146


so it's like I think she reads a freshman Reagan's a senior.00:56:16.146 --> 00:56:16.967


That's awesome yeah.00:56:17.329 --> 00:56:23.329


She still does her lunches, she does everything for read because he's a boy and is so cranky and rude in the mornings.00:56:23.909 --> 00:56:30.201


I love that, though, because sometimes too, I'm like my kids should you know, we always shit ourselves Like maybe they should make their own lunch because I made them do it for a while.00:56:30.201 --> 00:56:31.222


Yeah, it's very helpful.00:56:31.222 --> 00:56:37.577


I like making the lunch, and like now that I don't see them much, I'm like this is one thing I can do for them that like helps them.00:56:37.965 --> 00:56:55.422


But like you always go back and forth right, like I should make them, yeah, no, Sometimes she like we were just gone in Old Miss watching Riley and she got mad because she came home and the laundry bucket was overfilling and she's like Reagan and Reed, like could have started a load of laundry while I was gone.00:56:55.621 --> 00:56:56.041


Just to help.00:56:56.105 --> 00:56:58.753


And then my aunt was actually on the phone with her when she was saying this.00:56:58.753 --> 00:57:01.806


She's like gosh, I have eight loads of laundry to do because Reagan and Reed didn't start one.00:57:01.806 --> 00:57:05.090


Like talking to my aunt do their laundry, like why does it matter?00:57:05.090 --> 00:57:06.311


Like you usually do it.00:57:06.311 --> 00:57:16.326


And she's like, yeah, you're right, it's not that like it doesn't matter, it's not that deep like it's just, we'll just title every episode.00:57:16.385 --> 00:57:20.054


It's not that deep though we beat ourselves up about so much.00:57:20.054 --> 00:57:22.528


All of us like we all do it, especially as women.00:57:22.528 --> 00:57:23.231


That's what I'm saying.00:57:23.231 --> 00:57:24.376


We analyze everything.00:57:24.699 --> 00:57:27.871


It's all about mentality, yeah I feel like I don't beat myself up that much.00:57:28.574 --> 00:57:29.358


Well, I'm not honest.00:57:29.358 --> 00:57:33.126


I think we're perfect, but no, but I'm saying I think you do, though, about certain things, yeah, and honestly.00:57:33.467 --> 00:57:36.858


I'm feeling very convicted right now about how like sweet and nice her mom is.00:57:36.858 --> 00:57:39.492


Oh my gosh, because I'm kind of like not that nice of a mom.00:57:39.492 --> 00:57:52.766


No, that be like that.00:57:52.766 --> 00:57:54.710


They have to mind, they have to do that and it's not that vibe when you're around them.00:57:54.710 --> 00:57:55.813


Yeah, but they do not want to disappoint their mom.00:57:55.813 --> 00:57:57.958


But it's just not my like nature to be like so hot like I'm more like hi honey, how's your day?00:57:57.978 --> 00:58:06.657


like I don't think Ryan was like suffocating her kids that's so horrible.00:58:06.717 --> 00:58:07.619


I would never do that.00:58:07.619 --> 00:58:09.864


I just put my aneurysm on to make him be quiet.00:58:09.864 --> 00:58:12.670


No, but I don't think that one's that yeah.00:58:12.670 --> 00:58:14.172


Yeah, that one's not that deep.00:58:14.172 --> 00:58:19.070


No, but I mean like I feel like I could be more loving and patient.00:58:19.070 --> 00:58:25.387


I do feel like I am short, but I think, maybe because I work now, I do feel like I used to be more loving and patient.00:58:25.387 --> 00:58:29.934


I'm maybe now a little bit more short-fused, yeah, and like let's go, and like I'm.00:58:29.934 --> 00:58:38.860


I feel like I'm always yelling or like always, like you know, doing something, like always like okay, what do we do it?00:58:38.900 --> 00:58:44.460


like you know, I'm always yelling about like a grade or your grade or your your late or that, I don't know.00:58:44.460 --> 00:58:46.106


I'm like I'm not that like nice now.00:58:46.106 --> 00:58:46.827
