I I have a thing for cast iron too đI subscribed based on your excitement for this potđ Love that color!
Nice to meet another cast iron fan đ€ whatâs your favorite thing to make in yours? Iâm so thrilled! I already posted a recipe I did in it, it was a shrimp and sausage soup. Itâs came out so good đ thank you so much for subscribing! Is so nice to have your here!
@@JoyfulYessiMy favorite things to make right now are Kalua pork, birria, pot roast and coconut curry. Also, Rice and beans come out perfect every time. Looking forward to watching your content!
Thank you so much! It's always the little things the instructions don't explain well!
Youâre welcome đ€
I'm going threw it now.keep me in prayer
đ I am so sorry that you e had to experience this. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers đ«
Thx I'm having my percedure tomorrow & very scared
I know exactly how you are feeling! I will be praying for you! â€ïž
@JoyfulYessi thank u your information really helped
My new favorite side dish. Thank you!
My pleasure đ
Hi Yessi,â€ïž thank you for creating such amazing content!! Your videos is so helpful to many of us. Truly sooo grateful!! I am planning to use Abeka to my daughter this year, so this such a good guide for me!! We just took my son out from Public school, last year, and he has autism. He adjusted pretty good with Abeka, accredited since he is already in highschool. I was too worried about the whole transcript so having him in accredited program is a huge blessings to us for now... I have been checking out your videos and shorts and I love every single of them. You are totally brilliant and also such a sweet human being and i love your energy everytime! Yessi, thank you for being a huge blessings! God bless you and your beautiful family. I appreciate you so very muchâ€ïžâ€ïžđđ
đ„° I appreciate your comment so much!!!! It really means so much! Iâm so glad your son adapted well the curriculum, having the accredited option is very helpful too! Iâm so happy that you have found all my videos so helpful đ€ thatâs always my hope when I put one up, for someone to find them beneficial to them! If thereâs ever a topic or question that you would like me to address in a video, please let me know! Once again, thank you, I wish you the best as you continue your homeschooling with you children and many blessings to you and your family as well. đ
@@JoyfulYessi aww, thank you for your sweet replyâ€ïž I'd love to see more of day in the life, it's amazing the things you do even after a long day at work. And here I am, complaining always tired, even if it was just a part time job. That's how I came across your channel I need motivation, cuz lately I found myself not wanting to do anything when I get home, even making dinner feels so hard sometimes. But when I watch one of your DITL, I feel truly inspired. And your lifestyle is very similar to mine, Christian family, simply living, loving the Lord. I have 2 kids too but they are older, 9 & 17- so I can relate so much with you guys!! Keep doing what you do, and again, thank you, you blessed me so much!!
@@raquelklinger1368 Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm hoping to make a summer one sometime in July đ€ Girl, I've been there! Know that you are not alone! Lack of motivation strikes us all. I'm so happy to know that you have found inspiration in them. It truly makes me happy! Thank you so much! đ„°

Holy moly I need to make this!!
Definitely give it a try and let me know what you think đ€
I have a daughter-in-law.That's gluten free Good recipe thank you
Iâm glad you liked the recipe! Iâm still trying to figure out a really good gluten free empanada dough đ€
At the end of the year, we gathered all the papers of completed work and put it in a bin. Then when my sonnwentnto camp, i cleaned out the papers, broken pencils and make portfolio of work. We also signed up for all the reading peograms too including Good and Beautiful.
Camp sounds fun! What kind is camp did he go to? I love how you used that time to be so productive! Which state are you in? What things do you keep in your portfolio? Awesome! My kids really enjoyed the books that they received for the Good and Beautiful. Thanks for sharing how you close our your year with me đ„°
Congratulations! I have that same one in the grenadine color and just love it. Great piece of cookware and I know you will make great food in it!
Thank you!!! Iâm so over the moon! Iâm actually sharing a new recipe with it in tomorrowâs video đ€© What are some of your favorite things to cook in it? Any tips for me?
@@JoyfulYessi I make stuff like chicken noodle soup, beef vegetable soup, beef stew, chicken and dumplings, stuff like that. Oh, I did make coq a vin in it one time ...well, because it's French, you know? LOL . No real tips, it's just like any other dutch type oven - I usually start with a low to medium heat to get it fired up and warm and then just find that perfect spot where it simmers. I have a gas stovetop so I play with it. Oh, keep those little rubberized plastic thingies it comes with that separate the lid from the pot and use them. Less chance of getting a nick in the enamel that way :) Have fun!
@DianePahl Omg! I love this! Thank you for sharing! Iâve never tried coq a vin, definitely want to give something French a try! đ BTW thank you so much for the tip on the rubber thingies lol I would have never thought about that! Thatâs genius! đ„°
@@JoyfulYessi Try coq a vin - it's really not hard - just prep everything ahead of time and follow the directions - step by step. I think the more I make it, it won't seem so daunting - it's just following the steps - give it a shot! And, it's very good.
Thank you so much!
Youâre welcome đ€
Iâm the mama who put together 18 flex binders together for the whole year last year. It has been the best year! I love Abeka accredited and the flex binder system! Iâve been using Abeka with all my 3 girls since preschool 2 and 3 program! This year I just finished putting together 16 binders! So much easier the second time around. 4 th was a little challenge because of learning her revised 4 th grade curriculum and book reports etc but I canât say enough thank you to you for sharing this system! I told my mom about this all so. She homeschools her 2 grand children. I sent her to your channel.
Yes! THANK YOU so much for sharing g this with me!!!! This just makes me so happy to know that this system worked so well for your entire family too! 4th grade was definitely a year of adjustment for us too, especially since he was coming in from the public school setting. 5th grade seemed so much smoother for my son! Once again, thank you for sharing and I home your mom finds it as helpful as you have đ€
How do I upload grades
They only have to be submitted if you are doing the accredited program. You fill out the paper progress report in The back of the video manual and submit that along with the completed tests using the yellow envelopes they provided and mail it in to them. They will send you an official report card once they have processed it. I know that they do offer digital assessments for grades 7-12, but we havenât gotten to those grades yet, so Iâm donât really know how those work đ
I love this video. It's good that people see different kind of home schooling.
Thank you! Iâm so glad that you loved the video đ€ Yes, itâs wonderful to see how everyone customizes it to fit their familyâs lifestyle đ
Hi, I was wondering if you purchased the Digital Teaching Slides, they are an extra $60 and they are mentioned in the Lesson Plans. I read that they are an aid but I wonder if you used them or what you thought of them?
We didnât find it necessary to purchase them for our family. I feel that the video lessons have been very thorough and sufficient for our kids. One thing that we did get our son was multiplication and division flash cards because he really needed to practice those and he used the cursive formation guide that comes in the penmanship book. I laminated it for him and he would refer to that often. Besides that, we havenât purchased any additional aids đ€
@@JoyfulYessi we never purchased the videos, just the parent and student kits. Do you recommend the videos as well?
@reydavinci It sounds to me like you are doing parent led, if thatâs the case then you donât need the video. We do the academy, so we purchase the entire curriculum as a kit with the video instruction. We absolutely love it, especially because we are also working parents, it just makes it so much easier for us and the concepts are taught very well.
Love simple step by step recipes like this and I appreciate it so much. Too many tutorials here try to be fancy or something, I donât want that. đ I want the regular Puerto Rican pork chops that my parents cooked for me.
Iâm so happy you liked the recipe đ€ I totally get it! try to keep things pretty simple and average.đ
What are some things you do to wrap up your homeschooling year?
Thank you for your videos, help me so much throughout this year since is my first year doing homeschooling
đ„° It makes me so happy to know that you have found my videos so helpful! Congratulations on your first year! If thereâs ever a topic that you would find helpful for me to make a video about let me know đ€
Thank you
This is an act of God up above.â€
Amen đđ„°
Thank you so much. Iâm so happy to learn this for my family/
You are very welcome! I canât wait to hear how you family liked it đ€
Sorry..thank you Yessi đ
Looks easy to make..I just hope I can do it cause I'm so hungry for itđ Thank you Jessy â€
Youâre welcome! I hope you enjoy it! đ€
Gracias!! đđđ
De nada! đ€
We love Abeka also! Weâre going into 2nd and 4th this year! We enjoy homeschooling so much! I did use your flex binder system for this next year so Iâm super excited about that! Thank you for making these videos! Have a much needed enjoyable summer â€
How exciting! I'm so happy to hear that you love Abeka and homeschooling so much, just like we do đ€ I can't wait to hear how you like the flex binder system! I hope you find it as stress free as we have. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you have an enjoyable and blessed summer as well đ„°
