Something that I especially enjoy about this family is that they apply the Bible to every aspect of their life, they don't pick and chose. They have lots of children becuase they know God will take care of their needs and that children are a blessing, they have no debt becuase the Bible says owe no many anything but love. They help the poor and they reach out to those in need, even the orphans. They are such a refreshing, loving family. Another tip that I picked up on from this family is the mother, Michelle,'s, gentle and quiet spirit. I read in their book that instead of raising her voice when her children were misbehaving she lowered her voice , to almost a whisper. I have been putting this into practise along with encouraging words and what a difference it has made in me and my girls. We are all happier and more joyful. It isn't always easy, but it does make loving the girls and be patient a lot easier. Another thing that sticks out about this family is that though they teach their children to behave and have selfcontrol, they also realize that kids need to be kids. They let them run around and play, Michelle doesn't mind the noise! I probably need to work on that a bit more!! And I don't have 6 boys all one year apart running around! Ofcourse this family is not perfect, but they are encouraging in the things of the Lord.
We asked our girls were we should go for our familhy vacation this year and guess what they said!? "Lets go visit the Duggars"
So if you have never heard of this family or watched their show, I would greatly recommend it as a wonderful family show! Now that we are taking a break from the internet and won't be able to watch them on youtube we are buying the seasons, so you are welcome to borrow them anytime!
If you have watched this family, what do you think of them! You know I have only had one comment, but I would love to have more, so feel free to tell me what you think!! :-)
