    We so appreciate your efforts to get this video filmed and edited Katie. We’ve had some crappy things happen lately so it was lovely to be distracted and to anticipate being on Uepi again. You’re a great mum.

      ohh no I am sorry to hear it's been a tough time for you lately... and I am certainly glad we can be a distraction for calmer times ahead soon!! Sending happy island vibes your way... and next week we are taking you underwater for a real escape to our paradise!!

    What a great episode. A day in the life of an island mum is amazing, Katie, you are right in saying that at the moment your most important job is being mum, our children grow up so fast. Before you know it they will be teenagers or adults who are married and doing their own thing. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us. I love seeing Arlo, Ophelia and Darwin growing up. Love to you all

      Hi Vanessa! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I was a little self conscious over this video being that it was all about my day 😅 and given it’s so heavily centered on the kids and lots of time breast feeding Darwin and caring for him which I didn’t really film at all, there’s little time for our usual epic ocean adventures. But looking forward to sharing more soon. Sending hugs to you. Hope you’re well 😊

    Fab episode my friend! Darwin is gonna be crawling soon!!! 🥰 kids growing like weeds, can’t believe how tall Arlo is looking for crabs in the forest. Ok, I’m in the mood for a snack now. You got me with those rice cakes 🤤

    If only more families were brought up by mums and dads that engaged properly with their children, instead of just settling them in front of a video half a day.
    And all the crab hunts, hammerhead sharks and dolphins, and all the other assorted life to learn about and observe - those kids are going to be the world's greatest naturalists.
    Well done to mum, dad - and Molly!

      I do believe we are in such a fortunate position to be able to create outdoor scenarios for our kids on a daily basis... I know it can be tough in the "real world" to avoid technology time. However, we do make conscious effort to do these things.. and we notice how calm our kids are when they have nature time! We can only hope they carry their love of the environment through to their adult lives :) thanks for watching

    I don’t know if you added pepperoni to those oat and olive slices or how you prepared it but I’m sure you could make that great with some protein on there if you didn’t already have some. Anything with garlic or peanut butter is the best. Great videos as always!

    • @TheIslandLifeofUs
      @TheIslandLifeofUs  Месяц назад

      aahhh yes that would make it more like Pizza slice for sure but we don't have pepperoni here.. lucky to have the olives to be honest ha ha and also I couldn't use cheese as we mostly eat dairy free too.. I am sure my mum used to make a pizza slice when I was a kid that tasted way better!

    Hi there, I only saw yr channel a few days ago and watched MANY. So blown away by your location and the house. I live in Far Nth NSW on acreage, all our 5 are now young adults and doing well from being raised in NATURE!!! Hope you don't mind me asking = Did you buy the land OR are you leasing it.10/10 location to raise your children. CAN'T beat Nature and being SO close to the crystal-clear ocean with the reef SO close. 😍😍💕💕 WOW x 100!! Just Subscribed. Love and light Pete.

      Welcome to the island fam... Glad you have found us and are enjoying the videos. We are hoping to share a real home tour soon so you can see the full finished house we have created! Raising our family here is a real dream and I truly believe that living in a natural environment like this keeps everyone relatively calm :-)
