      So true. There was a ridiculously stupid comment on a recent video telling of their " concern" that these 2 little girls have no TV, no entertainment, no food, etc. Good for them that they don't sit watching TV all day! And they have plenty to eat, it's just that the fridge needed to be restocked. Reading , crafts, art, music....those are all excellent for children! This family is wonderful, and the children are super well taken care of. 💕

You two are doing so much to make your family have the best life possible and despite the craziness you’ve gone through over the last couple years, still find joy and wonder in the simple, wonderful things in life. This video had me smiling the entire time. Just a beautiful, happy family. And that is what life is all about above everything. I can’t wait to see where you guys are in one, two, three years. I know great things are ahead. Love and respect from the US.

    Love the simplicity of homemade decor! Those chain garlands and snowflakes, bring back memories of grade school in our "little room" of the two room school house I grew up going to.
    The little room was K-4, the big room 5-8.
    When my brother and I began school, just 1 year apart, they didn't have kindergarten yet. The next year after I started, they started having a kindergarten class. We both just began as first graders.
    I had the largest class of 5 students in my grade the entire time I attended grade school... and I had only two different teachers from grades 1-8.... and we remained in this country school until we graduated from 8th grade. --We then rode a bus to school for high school where it was really strange to have a different teacher for every class!
    My mom had to drive us to school and then come pick us up... but my folks bought a motorcycle when I was in 7th and he in 8th, and we rode it to and from school in nice weather, saving a very tedious daily task for my mom. As an 8th grader, I rode it to and from school... as did 3 of the classmates in my grade. --Each of us had a motorcycle, and by then my brother was going to high school.
    We sure felt grown up driving the 3-4 miles on trail roads, driving ourselves to the school!
    I really love the little forest of trees you made!!

    Those are the memories your children will cherish; Christmas does not have to be expensive or extravagant to make it a happy occasion. Those snowflakes and garlands are just beautiful and oranges are wonderful. Tip: change the paper towel so it dries faster. Or use cloth towels to save money. Happy holidays to you and your family from Canada. hope baby is feeling better.

    Reminds me of my childhood. I miss when the simple things had meaning. I don’t blame things I’ve been through however lifes hardships have certainly take away these kind of moment’s from me.
    I am happy my son ended up a nice, respectable and responsible young man. I only wish his father and his wife ( with whom I get along with really well) didn’t spoil him so much so moments like these held his attention.
    Anyway I’m rambling…Wish you all the best for this Christmas season. ❤
