Shannon (05:24.02)
Wow.

Britt Jones (05:27.816)
yeah. Well, I tell everybody, everybody was a surprise. so there was after the first one was a surprise because our oldest is not ours biologically. She's been with us since she was three months old. She was a surprise. Our middle child was a surprise. And we have a child that's with the Lord. She was a surprise. So there's no need in breaking the street. Corey Jr. was a surprise.

Shun (05:33.274)
Really?

Shun (05:59.653)
me.

Britt Jones (06:01.158)
None of them were planned.

It was just like, hey, I'm sitting on the couch and I'm like, I don't feel right. Corey, want to go to you want to go to the Walgreens and get me a test? What kind of test? Yeah. Yeah, they all, they all pretty, they all pretty much happened like that. Yeah.

Shun (06:19.834)
Are you kidding me, Brit?

Shun (06:24.792)
Well, Britt, that's really my story. That's why I'm so amazed Shannon. You guys read my book. That's probably that's usually you know, what you guys are married So that's why so funny to me like I was out here willy-nilly in the streets, right? Just doing you guys were married So that's so funny to me that none of them were playing. I love it Well, if they were playing the gods they were playing the gods book just not in ours

Shannon (06:25.236)
Wow.

Britt Jones (06:37.059)
you

Britt Jones (06:43.035)
Mmm. Mmm.

Britt Jones (06:47.065)
yeah, yes, yes. just, we just, it just kind of as the, people would say, it just happened. And it was one of those things where initially when we married, I didn't want to have children right away. So during that period of time, I purposely did not have children. So I made plans before I said, do like, wait a minute, I don't even want a honeymoon baby. want to.

Shannon (06:47.892)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (07:00.878)
Okay.

Britt Jones (07:11.621)
I got to get to know this fellow a little bit more. Because see, we didn't live together before we were married or anything like that. So it was just like, I'm coming out of my mom and dad's My dad took care of everything. And because that was, mean, I'm just keeping it real. I went back home after college and I had all these student loans from going to a private school. I've

Shannon (07:24.254)
He he he he.

Shun (07:25.612)
Make sure he on the same page

Shannon (07:29.47)
Ha ha ha.

Britt Jones (07:37.988)
went back to my parents house so I could pay down some of those student loans. So yeah, when it was time for me to get married, it was just like, I don't want to have babies right away. But after I got kind of settled in over here in Alabama, then it was just like, oh, OK, we'll see what happens. Not really thinking about it. So yeah, all of them were surprises. Yes, ma'am. And I got started later than a lot of people.

My first child didn't come until I was like 35, close to 36 years old. So yeah.

Shun (08:11.386)
Your first show Wow That's very unusual But you know what else is unusual and Shannon is sad that we say this on this show being two Christian women What's very unusual Britt is that you did it the right way Shannon is so often out of order Shannon and I were out of order It's so often out of order. That's so refreshing. my god to hear you say that because while you're my girl Britt You know, we talk a lot. I didn't I didn't know that part. I didn't know that part

Britt Jones (08:14.069)
Yeah, my first, yeah.

Shannon (08:26.388)
Yes, yes. Mm-hmm. Yes.

Britt Jones (08:36.832)
Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Shun (08:39.642)
That is so refreshing to hear that it still can be in and should be done that way I think it's less stressful because I'm gonna tell y'all something Shannon even with JB and grown let me let you go first because you ain't got a hundred kids like me You got one so your answer be a little more simpler. How is that for you Shannon? You're one or You may which one your husband? Oh, you're man

Britt Jones (08:47.329)
Hmm.

Shannon (08:47.538)
Right.

Shannon (08:52.724)
Mmm.

Britt Jones (08:54.115)
You

Shannon (09:02.994)
Yeah, even to this day, even though my son has grown, he's still, you know, I pray to God he finds a wife. said, I won't be so bothered. my gosh. Of course, it's still a lot of worry. Your kids are still always on your mind no matter how old they are.

Shun (09:16.154)
So it be you.

Shun (09:30.862)
Absolutely

Shannon (09:30.878)
But when he calls me every second and you know, he's had a lot of health issues recently and well his whole his whole life, you know, he's had health issues, but more recently some more serious stuff almost to the point of death and but he's good now, not trying to bring anybody down. He's good now. But when I tell you when the phone rings and I see it's him, my immediate thought is OK now.

Britt Jones (09:36.223)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (09:52.915)
Good

Shannon (10:00.222)
brace yourself because you never know what it's gonna be and he can sometimes call you know five times a day and for anything just you know to complain about his work or whatever but if he had a wife she would be getting these calls yeah I'm gonna tell him I'm gonna tell him yes

Britt Jones (10:02.815)
Mm.

Shun (10:03.054)
Right.

Britt Jones (10:08.745)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (10:18.37)
It would be hard taking that call.

Britt Jones (10:19.039)
you

Shun (10:22.81)
I'm gonna step mama child Thomas cause that mama. I'll take a few of child. Give me give me Give my sister a break say call your step mama cuz she she can cuss with you You know But let me I'm gonna have to go against the grain of y'all know we usually Shannon now in the opposite ends of the spectrum it's Jimmy for me, baby, you understand And and only because let me tell you why I think I mastered being a mother

Shannon (10:31.482)
I'ma tell him, yes.

Shannon (10:39.344)
Yeah.

Britt Jones (10:41.266)
Shannon (10:45.466)
Okay, okay.

Shun (10:52.184)
because I've been a single mother longer than I've been a wife. So I think that's why it's easier for me to deal with the kids and their problems than dealing with my husband and ours. So nothing against him being the challenge. It's the fact that I have been a mother longer than I've been a wife in my life. And like I said, it's nothing against him per se, but then it is because with the kids issues, it's like I'm the mama.

Britt Jones (11:03.037)
Mmm.

Shannon (11:03.72)
Okay.

Shun (11:21.626)
Said it like it or not get the heck on go sit down. That's the answer You can't do that with your husband. Cuz you got to think single mother five six years raising three daughters You gotta go ahead to have them little girls break. Don't you them little girls, honey? Huh? See

Shannon (11:23.624)
Hehehehe

Britt Jones (11:24.9)
Right.

Shannon (11:31.508)
you

Britt Jones (11:33.297)
Ha ha ha!

Britt Jones (11:44.51)
Yes, yes, yes. I always tell my girls, or I tell all three of my children that they have a choice. And we're all seasoned ladies here. I'm a little more seasoned than you, but we all know who Clara Huxtable is. We know who that character is. And we've been here long enough to know who Madea is. So I always tell my children, take your pick.

Shannon (11:44.98)
Mmm.

Shun (12:06.348)
Absolutely.

Shannon (12:11.006)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (12:14.319)
You can have one or the other. And everyone, all of my children know this. Even Corey Jr. because he has watched every episode of the Cosmic Show and he knows who Madea is. So I'm very clear. You take your pick which one is going to be. Because Madea will tell up some stuff. And Claire Huster book going to get you straight with her words but she not going to tell up anything.

Shun (12:36.739)
Yes, she will.

Shannon (12:41.648)
Yes, he will. Right, right.

Britt Jones (12:43.492)
She will get you all the way together. But I always tell my children, yeah, just take it big. Take it big. I can do both now. Take it big.

Shun (12:50.97)
So you you bring a very good comparison because you can go one end Shannon or you can go to the other and I love that you brought that comparison to it because that's exactly what parenting is and see with me it's harder with the man because I was I was in and out these marriages baby like a Highway lane change. Okay, boom. Go. All right. I got a deal with you I don't care if you like it or not. Okay, you don't want my okay boom go I'm over here got a baby with you. Oh, you ain't right either I'm going I'm going back to highway 90. Okay

Shannon (12:57.309)
Mm-hmm.

Shannon (13:08.852)
You

Britt Jones (13:09.37)
I don't know.

Shannon (13:14.982)
my god. my god. Yeah.

Shun (13:20.792)
So i'm back now to the highway that i'm staying on And now it's not so easy because god popped me. you're gonna sit down somewhere so now I have to deal with him and them in the Biblical aspect. It's always him first, you know what i'm saying? And I had to learn that and y'all that was hard shannon to break to my children

Britt Jones (13:21.627)
You

Britt Jones (13:28.292)
Shannon (13:29.765)
and

Britt Jones (13:38.011)
Mmm. Yeah.

Shannon (13:43.454)
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (13:44.164)
Mmm.

Shun (13:46.062)
Britney they disliked me for a long time when I flipped that thing and put it into aspect. they didn't like that. Who is this Negro? I don't care if he is my daddy.

Shannon (13:52.626)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (13:53.882)
I had a moment. I had a moment similar. So I can identify. Yes.

Shun (14:00.047)
Alright, share it with us, if you don't mind.

Britt Jones (14:02.358)
Well, I don't mind it. I can't even remember what the conflict was, but it was me and our oldest child. And we were having a conflict just like mamas and older teenage daughters do. And I finally had to tell. Usually, if I'm going to tell something, I kind of call everybody's name because it's like I want you all to hear this. So I won't have to repeat this again. I don't like all that repeating stuff. So I basically told them, look,

Shun (14:13.114)
I know.

Shun (14:30.188)
I know that's right.

Britt Jones (14:31.514)
Yeah, I said, look, you know, like it's gonna come a day where all y'all gonna be out this house and we want y'all doing well, be able to take care of yourself. But in a nutshell, I basically told them, look, I got to get things back in order. I'm out of order. I got to get back in order because your dad is my husband.

Shun (14:40.74)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (14:55.022)
Mm-hmm.

Shannon (14:55.347)
Wow.

Britt Jones (14:56.884)
He's got to be in his respective place. I've got to be in my respective place. Y'all gonna be out of the house and I don't want to wake up one day and look over and be like, who is that? And he looking at me like, who are you? Because y'all gonna be somewhat booed up with who y'all want to be with.

Shannon (15:14.42)
That's the truth. The truth.

Shun (15:15.542)
It's that Buddha show you a absolutely you were telling the truth Shannon no, ahead. I'm sorry

Britt Jones (15:16.233)
Am I telling the truth? I'm telling the truth. I know I'm telling the truth. Because you, you know. Yeah, hey, it is what it is.

Shannon (15:26.132)
Yeah, yeah.

Shun (15:28.122)
I totally respect that and that's why I was going to feed off for you to segue to you Shannon Will came along Jay Jay's older, right? Was it hard to put that in perspective or did you off the top be like, okay, this is my husband now, baby I need you to be in a son's place or was that was it a struggle to get to that?

Britt Jones (15:34.679)
Mmm.

Shannon (15:35.347)
Mm-hmm.

Right.

Britt Jones (15:38.997)
Mm-hmm.

Shannon (15:46.084)
my gosh.

It well, it was a struggle, but it was a surprise struggle. And I'll tell you why it was a surprise. Jay's whole childhood and going off to college, he was, he wasn't like a typical, son where they don't want their mother to date. He always wanted me to be with someone's to the fact that I'd be to the point where when he went off to school up in Maine, he was so torn up.

Britt Jones (15:55.703)
Mmm.

Shannon (16:18.292)
that I was alone. He said, I would just feel so much better if you were with someone I really would. It worried him that he was just so stressed out that he was leaving me all alone down in Charlotte. So when I finally told him about Will and he met Will and he liked Will and then Will and I got together, he flipped. Everything flipped and he was initially upset. Oh my God, I can't believe.

Shun (16:24.119)
Hmm

Britt Jones (16:40.544)
What?

Shannon (16:47.354)
He's with you're with him because he wasn't my typical you know type according to Jay.
So, you know, he was so used to me dating, you know, white collar corporate dudes and will, you know, he's as real as they come. And not only really they come, you know, will is Southern and I wasn't used to dating southerners either. And so we'll thought

I'm sorry, Jay thought, okay, he's not really for my mom, you know, because, you know, I've never seen her date this type of guy. So it turned into a huge thing. I mean, where it blew my mind because one thing I can say about me and my son, we never really had conflict growing up. He was the easiest child other than his health. You know, I think we bonded so much over his health that anything else

Wasn't even worth talking about nothing was ever An issue he was the greatest teenager most people say how do you what do you mean? He was he was an easy teenager We never had issues until it came to my husband But then once he got to know him, you know After that first probably six to eight months, you know And you know my son anyone to know Jay. He's he's a sports fanatic and so is will

So they bonded over that and they started talking sports all the time, 24-7, 24-7. And then he got back to the son he used to be to where if I went to him and I complained about Will, he say, nah, he good. He good. What you lead it? Leave my man alone. my, that's my man. That's my man. So yeah.

Britt Jones (23:34.644)
you

Shun (23:40.795)
I love that because it also speaks to the kind of mother that you are. Once he realized that's what made you happy. understand? Nothing else really matters. And that's what some children have to understand. Which brings me to my next point, if I can jump really quick. I have a friend who adamantly, Shannon, she adamantly says that no man will ever come before her child. And I wonder,

Shannon (23:50.292)
Mm-hmm, right, right.

Britt Jones (24:05.438)
Mmm.

Shun (24:07.702)
If that's just a thing with people whose children aren't biologically their husbands If it's thing if it's a faith thing because everyone isn't, you know faith-based. I mean it is what it is She actually is she goes to church. She believes in god. She believes in the word So for her to say that it's so puzzling but she's she's hands down She means that if she ever got married because she's not married right now that no man will ever come before her child It will always be her and her child

Britt Jones (24:17.745)
Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Shannon (24:26.452)
But what does she mean?

Shun (24:36.332)
And if the husband doesn't agree, he just wouldn't be at home. That's what she means like straight up Isn't it crazy? And she literally is a very very faith-based person I just wonder how that goes and not to judge anybody brit because I had to learn that I said that I had to learn because Yeah, jimmy isn't two of my girls. He's not their biological fathers So to them it felt like a betrayal like who is this negro, you know?

Britt Jones (24:39.677)
Hmm.

Britt Jones (24:43.347)
Mmm.

Britt Jones (24:53.768)
Right, right, it's a process.

Britt Jones (25:00.755)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (25:05.075)
Mmm.

Shun (25:05.344)
Even to our biological daughter. She was like, I don't care who daddy is. He don't tell us no This what we've been doing. That's what we don't keep doing but I had to explain to them the order he's the head and what he says goes but let me tell y'all I wasn't just that wife. the bible says I had to also tell him sir If we're gonna follow you you have to follow god I am just following in and everybody up out in here

Shannon (25:05.374)
Mmm.

Shannon (25:09.342)
Yeah

Shannon (25:13.3)
Ha ha ha!

Shannon (25:30.312)
Yeah, yeah.

Britt Jones (25:30.514)
Mmmmm

Shun (25:34.85)
So that was an issue that he and I had for a long time because shannon as you know, because that's your baby daddy, too That negro will do what he want to do. He's in the bottle of nothing else So that was a lot of work

Shannon (25:39.816)
Mm-hmm.

Right.

So what are your thoughts, Britt?

Shun (25:51.406)
you

Britt Jones (25:55.473)
Ooh, this, I guess, I know you brought up, know, everybody's not basing what they're doing in faith as we are. And even with our exposure and upbringing, we had to grow into some things or get to a point where we accepted things in our heart. But if you're already saying that

Shannon (26:08.018)
Right, right, right.

Britt Jones (26:24.356)
this is what you believe, you got to, in my mind, you got to do what it says. So if you say you are woman of the word, then we're supposed to follow the word. And if we're having issues with it, because we've all had issues and we will continue to have issues, I can only speak about myself. Those of us that are familiar with

Shannon (26:31.796)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (26:42.198)
Absolutely.

Britt Jones (26:53.593)
the scripture that talks about Vashti and her not coming out at the order of her husband. I pray and ask God to help me all the time, because see, I got a little Vashti in me. And so when you recognize what you're dealing with, you pray and you ask God to help you in that area. But you know, if you're...

Shun (27:11.534)
You

Shun (27:18.202)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (27:22.894)
10 toes down like this has gone be. I'm not sure how much growth can take place. When we when we have that, you know, as our as our mantra, you know, but I can only speak for myself. I know some of the areas where I was just told up in and I was just like, you know, convicted, but still struggling. I'm like, Lord.

Shun (27:35.362)
mindset.

Shannon (27:39.574)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (27:39.673)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (27:52.942)
Only you can help me with this, because I don't want to do this right here. And I know what he said, but I don't want to do all that. So that's when I had to go back and read those scriptures again. I was like, now, wait a minute, now, am I going to act like an Esther or a Vashtag? Lord, help me with my Vashtag. She pushing Esther to the side. I'm just talking about myself.

Shannon (27:54.184)
Mm-hmm.

Shannon (28:13.236)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (28:20.366)
That's right.

Britt Jones (28:20.621)
Yeah, I get it. It's not a, I'm not judging. I'm just observing and then it's caught, you sharing that caused me to reflect on where I was told and where God helped me to open my eyes and to see things differently. And also to see how much better it was gonna be when I got in alignment with what I said, I believe.

Shannon (28:45.738)
yes.

Shun (28:47.203)
right?

Britt Jones (28:47.892)
So that's my take on it.

Shun (28:50.71)
and I wonder ladies if It and this is to me because I like I said I was out of order each and every time with all of my children I wonder if that's any different or easier if you go in or in Britain, you know Well, I don't have that wonder because you answered the question you went in order you did the church You did the faith you did the marriage then the children and it still was a struggle for you at times, correct? Placing him and them and their right order

Shannon (28:50.857)
No.

Shannon (29:08.626)
Yeah.

Britt Jones (29:16.577)
yeah.

Shun (29:19.586)
So my thing is I don't want to not say well, it doesn't matter if you do it, right? I don't want to say that but I I still think it's easier ladies if you do it in order because you got that background you got that word to back you up, know what i'm saying because It's hard with the word y'all I can imagine not being saved trying to trying to run a good a family Children business. I couldn't imagine that without the word and faith to back me up, you know, it gets it gets out of order

Shannon (29:28.148)
Yeah, if you do it in order.

Mm-hmm. Yeah. Yeah.

Britt Jones (29:33.675)
yeah. yeah.

Shannon (29:47.432)
Right.

Shun (29:49.401)
And it gets money really quick, you know, so I'm thankful for my background and for those of you who are not faith-based We're not telling you we're not pushing it on you. We're not forcing on you We're just telling you what gets us through so please don't not listen to the word or that listen to this show because I We talk about his God. God is all you'll ever hear me say That ain't what you choose. It's a free will you have to choose him for yourself. I came for some on you anyways

Britt Jones (29:49.759)
Right.

Shannon (29:50.142)
Yeah.

Britt Jones (29:52.373)
Mm-hmm.

Shannon (29:52.67)
Yeah.

Shannon (30:02.917)
huh.

Britt Jones (30:13.717)
Right.

Shun (30:16.73)
But what I can tell you is that is the only thing that has got us through Shannon and I know that for a fact because how many times have you prayed with me honey because This ninja is done. Shannon. I'm packing up the night. I will be leaving then I call her too. So like yeah, we're going on vacation girl We're going down south. You want to see the family? She back. I'm so happy. So it's a constant struggle and like you said Britt you can say all you want to I'm gonna let I'm gonna let best I'm gonna let her ride up in here

Shannon (30:17.609)
Right.

Shannon (30:21.214)
Mm-hmm. yeah. Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (30:21.951)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (30:33.856)
Ha ha!

Shannon (30:35.604)
Bye.

Shannon (30:40.531)
Mm-hmm.

Shun (30:45.934)
But then that Esther gonna take over because when you're rooted in the world, no matter what your mouth say, that heart and that spirit gonna do the right thing. You have to be aligned. You have to be in line.

Shannon (30:46.654)
Mm-hmm.

Britt Jones (30:53.883)
yeah. yeah. yeah. And it takes so much. A lot of times for me, like I said, I can't speak for anybody else, but for me, I found that my weight is so much lighter. There's just less to carry when I get in alignment with what I say I believe. When I try to get out there and go rogue and like,

Shannon (30:56.766)
Yep. Yep.

Shannon (31:19.26)
Hmm.

Britt Jones (31:22.195)
Well, I'm going do it this way. Why do I got to... I'm not running that by him. If I get that in my spirit, it could be something that's not on the surface that's wrong, but it just won't work out right because I was out of order.

Shannon (31:26.548)
you

Hmm.

Shun (31:33.562)
That's tremendous.

Shannon (31:42.196)
Mm-hmm, right. Right.

Shun (31:45.784)
Man, listen, I know that all too well.

Britt Jones (31:46.504)
You know, and I'm of those people, don't have to keep hitting my head. I'm not one of those people that has to keep hitting my head. I can see you hit your head and be like, oh, let me do the rockin'.

Shannon (31:52.436)

Britt Jones (31:58.227)

Britt Jones (38:27.852)
Okay.

Britt Jones (38:33.708)
Okay. Yes.

Shannon (38:35.729)
Okay.

Shun (38:50.638)
Britt shared a quote with me and it says sometimes we have to choose each other Britt Would you mind sharing with the listeners where that quote came from? Because I like to give the right people credit

Britt Jones (39:02.665)
Sure. I was listening to Dr. Boyce Watkins, a financial expert that's all over social media. has something called the Black Business School. And he just gave an example of his daughter being chosen by Tuskegee. And that's where she wanted to go and how they chose each other. And I think in marriage, that's what we have to do. Sometimes we just got to choose each other. So that came from Dr. Boyce Watkins. And I think it

You can apply that across the board and definitely within marriage because we husband and wife, we always got to choose each other.

Shun (39:42.157)
Absolutely. Thank you Britt. So sometimes we have to choose each other I would like for you guys to stick with that like Britt said whether it comes to wiping or life in Things doesn't always go as planned Shannon, but at the end of the day God guys God entrust us with these families that we created So being the strong Queens that we are ladies when it comes to him or them no matter what side of the scale you fall on we got this and That's my wrap-up for tonight
