Jana and Jinger
Over the weekend, we got news that the Duggar girls are going to be issued on Crown of Beauty which is coming soon so make sure that you keep up to date with the blog for the announcement. To read the full article, you can click here.

Jana has said "I have enjoyed many ministry opportunities, from going on missions trips, to just being at home serving and ministering to my family and many others that come through our home!" She also adds about being single still "I know how it feels to wait for “Prince Charming” to come along. I’m still waiting. Waiting is not always easy. Especially in those times when all the married siblings are getting together and you can’t go along because your not part of “that” group. But waiting doesn’t mean sitting and literally waiting."

Jinger describes her relationship with Jeremy: Jeremy was a young man who I saw had a passion for not just knowing about God but truly knowing God. Seeing his passion for the Scriptures and love for souls is what initially drew me to him

Joesph and John David's interview about Josh!

Being a role model is hard but being a role model for your younger siblings are harder. Josh Duggar can admit to that. Josh revealed in May 2015 what he did to his four little sisters (Jessa and Jill have came forward) and one other family friend.

No one ever expect for Josh to be part of the Ashely site and be addicted to something that could have destroy his marriage and family.

Joseph said that it broke his heart to hear what he did to Anna and their four young children.

John David reveals that many of his younger brothers have been looking up to him now that Josh has done this. He says that it weighs hevy on him since he has to be an example to them.

Date nights in DC

Anna revealed that they don't get that many date nights now that they live in DC since their family lives in Arkansas and Florida.

Josh and Anna try to go to the Mexican restaurant in the Capitol.  Josh and Anna have to be creative on how they do date night. They put the kids to bed and have their date night on the porch and share what is on their hearts.

Anna shares her tips about taking the kids on the date rather than buying a babysitter. Anna reveals that she tells the kids "We are going on a date, but you get to come with us, and we are going to practice our manners."

Anna reveals that the kids try to do their best to have good manners because they know that it's important. Anna remembers about going on a few dates with her mom and dad and it's special to see them taking time to focus on each other and their marriage.

Anna Duggar on Handling Meltdowns

How do you handle meltdowns in public with your little ones?

Anna: For me, when my children have a meltdown in public, there is a temptation to think that my children are better than that. I try to have a humble spirit and have an attitude of loyalty towards my children by being loving and understanding towards them. Often, a child's meltdown in public is the result of a really uncomfortable situation.

I speak to my children in a soft voice and ask what's bothering them. And then I encourage them to respond with positive behavior: "It's been a long day, but you are doing so well! We're in this together."

I ask them what they think the right response is, and then we practice that behavior. For instance, if we're at a restaurant, we practice sitting still at the table and using good manners. And then I praise them.

Like Michelle, I try to lower my voice instead of raise it. I bend down and ask them to look into my eyes. With Michael, since he's a little boy and is so squirmy, I have him put his hands on my cheeks right by my eyes to remind him to maintain good eye contact.

After I reach my kids' hearts, I try to figure out if there is a specific need they have. When we are out and about, I usually pack high-protein snack for my kiddos. When you have a tired kid with an empty stomach, that is really tough. You can keep raw almonds in your purse for forever, if your kids are old enough to eat them.

One of my friends has children who cry very loudly, so she has her children practice loud voices and quiet voices so they learn the difference. Then when her kids are crying, she comforts them and tells them that it is okay to cry but encourages them to cry softly. That's not to say that my children always cry softly, but it helps teach them how to deescalate a situation.

Jessa and Ben Seewald's Relationship Dos and Don'ts

Ben and Jessa sat down with people and did many interviews about their relationship, family, and their marriage
Ben and Jessa have only been married for a little over three months but they are giving some advice about what they have learned so far.

"Ben is the best for sure at saying 'Sweetheart, we need to talk about this' if he senses I am irritated or upset about something," says Jessa Seewald revealed to people and then add "It's important not to turn away,"

"The most important thing is humility and putting the other person first," he says. "I try to make that my perspective – I'm here to serve her and help her. What can I do to make her life easier?"

In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE at their home in Springdale, Arkansas, the newest Seewalds have much more to share on what they've learned – and say they are learning.

DO: TALK IT THROUGH
"It's important not to build walls or turn away from hard topics," says Jessa. "Not like, 'I am going to take my feelings and close off from you and build a little wall there.' The 'I'm-going-to-show-you attitude' really hurts. It's always best to open up and talk about things."

DON'T: YELL OR SCREAM
While yelling is "not the tendency" in the Seewald home, Jessa says, she also cautions that not being willing to talk about an issue can be problematic.

"Clamming up is just as bad [as yelling], she says.
DO: BUDGET
"We have been thinking about finances a lot lately," says Ben, who says he and Jessa want to avoid getting into debt and try not to waste money.

In addition to Duggar-type bargain hunting – Jim Bob and Michelle have often discussed their goal to "buy used and save the difference" on their show – Ben insists that giving money away is also important to the couple.

"If God blesses us with money, we want to find ways to give it to others who need help," he says.

DON'T: SKIP DATE NIGHT
Jessa says that Ben takes her out on date nights "sometimes twice a week" to romantic dinners or trips to the local ice cream parlor.

"Dates are investing in our marriage," Ben says. "That's a good way to spend our money."

Last week on the show was Derick's first interview. He did pretty good and I must say that he was a little bit nervous but I would be too if I had to be on camera.
