It's Mojo in the Morning Show. I do want to address something because there's a little bit of a social media outcry that people are not happy with us and i wanted to to bring this up if we can uh yesterday we put up a post up on our uh mojo in the morning instagram and uh facebook pages celebrating national suns day and there were uh pictures that were posted of cav's son josiah and then my son's joe jacob and Luke, but

Way to snub my son. There was no

picture of Smith that was posted and I just wanted to address this that we don't like Smith. No, we love Smith. People were very upset. People were posting like, whoa, nice job not posting, you know, not putting Smith on here and stuff. And it was honestly not an oversight. It was actually done on purpose. Yeah.

um smith's dad my ex-husband does not um feel comfortable with loose and smith so both of my kiddos being posted on the mojo social media so we were all we were just trying to be respectful of that but it looked like we forgot they've been posted all throughout the years and it's been no

issue so i i i listen i'll let dad call the whatever he wants to do but if you want to see smith just go to at cupcake shannon which is wild because you have just as many followers as i got but i will say this to you i will say that i love smith i actually to be quite honest with you love him more than i love my own kids he's a cool kid i've said this before smith might be the coolest of them all so i would never we as a show would never leave any of the kids that are part of our show out on something like that yeah um kev did get upset that my kids got three pictures where Josiah got one.

That was wild. You put in the chat, send me a picture. I'll go online. You got three slides in the fourth slide shot. But we got three kids. Yeah, but y'all don't have a group photo?

I don't have it. First off, I don't have it. Are you seriously upset about that? It's weird. I don't have a group photo that is anything recent because the three of us haven't been together since Christmas. Is that not recent enough? Three months ain't recent? Everyone I have, I've posted already on this social media. It doesn't matter. I don't take professional photos like your Sears Portrait Studio one that you did. It doesn't matter.

Where did you and Josiah take that photo? We took it.

Shout out to Q11. I love Q11. A great place brought to you by great people.

Let me go back. I want to go back to Smith here for a second. So he doesn't want the kids to be on the social media. That is interesting because I know a lot of people who are in co-parenting situations. i don't know if any listeners can share with us what their co-parenting rules are but do you have something like that where one parent doesn't like certain things like you can't do do certain things and the other parent you know has to abide by it or actually deal with it respectful of it yeah yeah which honestly i do think i you are very you go way over

the top uh to be respectful of stuff like that well i mean it's important to me that our relationship

is as good as it can be yeah well i mean smith is super young but is he aware of like those moments

oh yeah uh so we just we actually just shot a tv commercial i think i talked about it maybe briefly for the michigan education savings program and the kids were in it but i was very cautious even there of not showing their like front like their face so you'll see like the their side profile or whatever but he was like i want to talk on it i want to like they they understand smith is a little bit different from loose where um he lucy would love to be a youtube star and smith sometimes is like i don't want my photo ticket okay i totally respect that even you know in situations at home where i just want to capture him you know doing something silly or cute or whatever but whereas lucy i mean she like you know he's all for it

Channel 955. It's coming up, partner. Yep, it's coming, man. We're in the big festival looking out. Watch the window. And I'm in the front seat, even though I'm Lucy and I'm a kid. And I'm only five and a half years old. Remember that? I do. I do. Yeah.

I know. Channel 955, partner. But I think that speaks volumes about you, that your kids can express it and you respect boundaries and they're comfortable expressing it for sure which i think is super cool i worry with those family vloggers i talk about it all the time i think it's so concerning sometimes but

you're very like yeah we're not you're not pushing the kids we are not having a honey boo boo here there's no honey boo boo no honey boo boo is that and they stole all her money uh

y'all didn't watch that huh she struggled to pay for college oh really yeah did she June stole all of her money.

Mama June, is that what her name was? God, I forgot about that.

Is she still alive? Mama June is her sister, who is her caretaker. That's right.

Did you call all the texters here, Lydia, that said they think that Kev is crazy for being mad about that whole thing?

Yeah, there was. Everybody say I'm crazy, bro. So much controversy about... And by the way, you know I hate all these days. When he said that, I was like, are you serious, bro? I didn't even post anything on my personal social media about National Sons Day because it's like National Sons Day, International Women's Day, National Daughters Day, National Puppy Day, National Gotcha Day, National I Love My Dog Day. I'm like, if I post for them, but then I miss one, it makes me look like I don't love Lucy or Smith or Charlie or whatever.

But I will tell you this. There are like the International French Friday is stupid or something like that or Taco Day.

International Women's Day I always observe.

I think Sons and Daughters Day to me is okay only because it's like we do so much of the highlighting of things on social media. Like we post, there's always the negative stuff that's out there. To me, it's the pride of, thank God I have, you know, I'm raising a good child.

I love that too. But for all of the moms and dads who are listening right now going, oh my God, I didn't know it was National Suns Day yesterday. I need to quick get up a post or else it looks like I didn't, I don't love my son. No, no, you don't have to.

Um, it's funny because I've got family members though that don't like to be post on social media and one, one of them is aunt Pat and Pat will not let me post anything on social media. And then the other one is my wife, Chelsea, who gets mad at what I post because she's convinced that I post only bad pictures of herself. And I kind of try to say to her all the time, it's not that I'm posting bad pictures of yourself. You don't like any picture of yourself. Like there's never, so what I'd have to do if I post anything, like if it's her birthday or if it's our anniversary I will go to her social media and I will pull pictures from the ones that she picked to post on hers and post those because I'm assuming that those are the ones

that she likes my husband Wes is the same way he notoriously posts the worst oh wait oh I thought you said he was like he doesn't like okay he'll post he has posted photos they're still up on his Instagram of me legitimately with my eyes closed but he looks great in the photo and I'm like you You knew what you did. That's awful. He's like, it's a good photo. You're laughing so hard. Your eyes are closed. I go, no, my eyes are actually just closed in this photo.

Okay. Do you really think your eyes were closed? A million percent. You were just squinting and laughing.

It is a photo from us in Arizona. There were about 10 photos taken of that same moment, and he picked the one where my eyes were closed.

Oh, my God. Again, hyper, you know, worried about your pictures?

He has a lot of them posted that I don't like And I've never told him to take them down But I'm like, really? There were nine other options And that's the one you picked

I always like to say this to you And say this to anyone

Anybody that gets mad at anything I post on social media, go to look at our post that we put up there. Everybody on this show goes and says, hey, let me let me see that picture before you post it. Except for me. Excuse me?

That's actually not true anymore. Why are you lying? These cameras make us all look like trolls. Oh, I think I'm right. I've given up a long time ago. Anything that I don't post personally is like the most unflattering photo of me. And I've never asked to take it down. What are you talking about?

I used to care.

And then at some point you just have to say, I don't know.

I think, I think these videos make me look damn good. I don't know. I'm like, look at me. I kind of like it. I kind of like the way that I'm looking.

My skin is gray in every video. I look like a sick Victorian child.

No offense, but.

I do. That's true.
