In this video I’m talking about something that can feel really taboo: how I knew I was done having kids. I’ll be honest—this was a subject I avoided for a long time because I don’t love the “finality” of it. But after my last baby, what I felt wasn’t confusion or back-and-forth… it was this very clear sense of finality, and a deep thankfulness for what we’ve been given. Eight kids. That still feels wild to say out loud. I share a little background on how I got to this point and what shifted for me emotionally after baby #8. This isn’t me telling anyone else what their family “should” look like—this is just my real-life mama talk from inside a big homeschool, big-family life. If you’ve ever wrestled with the question of “Are we done?” or you’re scared to even say it out loud, I hope hearing my thought process helps you feel less alone and a little more at peace with wherever you are right now.
