Thankful Duggars

Remember when we posted about Bethany's beautiful pencil drawings of the Duggar kids a couple years ago? Michelle sent a thank you letter to the talented artist back in October of 2011, but she recently made a YouTube video expressing her gratitude.

"We have them across one of our walls in our main living room area," said the mother of 19. "So we just thank you for using your talent and sharing your blessing with us..."

Scroll down to see the video and photos of the drawings.

  3. What a nice thing to do for the Duggars.That had to take up a lot of time. How nice is is to see someone doing something so sweet and not negative, how refreshing is that? Bless your heart. Sincerely, Natalie from Nebraska

  6. Hi, ladies. Do you think you could pass this link along to Jim Bob and Michelle? It's an article about five siblings from Oregon looking for a rural forever home. Perhaps they could consider and pray about it. Thanks.

  7. Good grief! Mute the TV/internet before making a video. So hard to hear what she was saying over all the background noise.

  11. What about Michele and Jim Bob? They could have been drawn as well. But still I think that they are really stunning.

  12. Dear Lily and Ellie,
    Who drew those darling pictures? Just wondered if you knew. I saw a picture a few years ago of Johannah and Jackson at a homeschool convention. I wonder if that is the same artist?

    Hi Anonymous 12,

    The pictures were drawn by a woman named Bethany back in 2011, so it's quite possible that the drawing you saw at the convention was one of Bethany's. Here's the link to the original post: http://duggarsblog.blogspot.com/2011/10/doodles-of-duggars.html

  15. they sort of looked like the real pictures of the kids ... on the second photo drawing, she should have made the boy (i forgot who it is) face a little rounder, and nose smaller, would have conteured the face a little better.
    and Jana's face a little more narrow from the side, and her mouth a little wider. and John David didn't even look like John David. :) Just my take, but these are very skillfully done otherwise! :)
