Yeah. They're definitely still around. Yeah. I think especially to men. And you know what I think? I think God perfectly designed my husband for me because Kyle had a big valet company that he started and owned when we first started dating.

He, his business, he backed out, backed out, backed out, backed out of his business, started editing my YouTube videos. And he truly, slowly over time, he completely gave up his career to be a background role in mine and then to raise our children. so that we could still be very hands-on in raising our children. He is still the one that takes our kids to school every day.

He still watches our children, picks our children up, packs their lunches. It's not like I'm working 8 to 9 p.m. I'm still around a lot. And they have both of their parents present in their lives, which is such a blessing. But to be a man and to choose that is a really...

rare and amazing thing and i think that makes him even more powerful as a husband and a father and a man and i think it's so cool to think about our kids talking about one day you know in 15 years well my mom worked you know building this whatever it is that they talk about building this pajama brand or selling these holiday sweatshirts that we used to be in the photo shoots and all this stuff and my dad stayed home with us i think that's a really powerful thing for them to see

cool journey. And we want to believe that we're past this societal norms, but I agree with you, Jamie. We're not, because I think a lot of men would not do well. A lot of men maybe wouldn't have the opportunity to do what my husband does. Maybe a lot of men would like to stay home with their kids. But, um, I think that, um,

It is just such an amazing thing that he gave up everything, just like my mom did, raising us. She never had a career. Raising children was her identity, was her career for 20 years of her life or more. But yeah, my husband gave up everything for... to take a step back and not back. We shouldn't say back.

So you're like putting in all the work and nobody's saying thank you. You don't even know how it's going to turn out. No one's saying thank you. And ain't nobody paying you. You know?
