    That was so wonderful to see Ivar running around with his cousins and to see your family, Matthias. I can feel your loneliness for your family, even though you have Tova's family close by. I hope, with you, that some of your family can come for Jul. Though it may not feel like you have enough progress on all of your projects, but we can see just how far you've come. Your videos are spectacular. I know it takes time and be assured that we appreciate the time that you take to share your lives with us. Sending lots of love.

    I remember reading "Where the wild things are" as a kid and loving it. Even though our lives are so different there is something about Ivar's childhood that reminds me of me as a child. Obviously being brought up without electronics helps, it feels like my childhood over 30 years ago. Unfortunately my life hasn't continued being so beautiful, but it brings me so much joy seeing your life and everything it entails. These little slices of your life are sometimes the brightest part of many of my days. I wish you all the happiness and love :)

    C'est formidable qu'Ivar ait pu voyager. Il a découvert les voyages en voiture, les grandes routes, la ville, le supermarché, la mer, le bateau et tout un tas de choses utiles et si lointaines de votre mode de vie. Il découvre que tout ca existe. Et puis une grande et belle maison chauffée, confortable avec de la lumière, et surtout la famille. C'est magique de voir ses petits yeux magnifiques émerveillés devant tant de nouvelles et importantes choses. Cette vidéo est fantastique. Vous êtes tellement des bons parents et lui tellement mignon ! Merci beaucoup pour nous faire partager tout ça. Amitiés depuis le sud de la France où je ne manque aucune vidéo ! Je suis fan 🙋‍♀️💚🌲❄

He discovers that all of this exists. And then a big and beautiful heated house, comfortable with light, and especially the family. It's magical to see her beautiful little eyes in awe of so many new and important things. This video is fantastic. You are so great parents and he is so cute!

    I think Tova looks very beautiful with the short hair, not in a pervy way. I'm a normal person I promise. It shows off her elegant long neck. I also thought that Ivar's Great Grandmother looks a lot like Tova, which I know doesn't make sense since they are not related. But I thought that she was quite a beautiful older woman, and that might be a glimpse into Tova's future!

    Dear Matthias - don't plan too much, it gives so much stress to be behind an imagined schedule. A two year old kid has a short span of concentration and is very inventive, and moves quickly all over the place, thinking highly of his own capacity, and wants to explore everything.
    Emil i Lönneberga is no huge exaggeration for a boy between 2 and 3, even if he doesn't explain all his ideas in words.
    Ivar is so cute and his clothing is adorable! One can feel that he is developing very healthily, you have done a greta job, you parents.
    Everythings will turn out fine if only you and Tova sleep enough! :-) Keep it simple, it is good enough! Yours is a high-quality life and has not to exceed any certain ideas. It is all a process and that's as it should be!

    I suggest making a book of Ivar's family. Print out photos of the important people, the places and glue stick them back to back, get them laminated with the really stiff stuff( went to office supply place) Got 2 stacked photos per page, cut them apart with good margin around photo so in one corner could put hole and keyring. It was really helpful when he was going to see people again or was talking on the phone. I know how hard it is doing things with kids around, loved when you stood him in a hole and gave him toys, that was brilliant.

    The videos of the children playing together was very sweet. Tova looks so much like her mother (or grandmother, not sure which. I think people age better there than we do here in California!). Things are progressing steadily on the farm. Do you plan on planting more Birch trees on the land? It is funny how the sheep, the rams I think, just come up to you for attention. The the "big guy" see the younger sheep getting petted and he wants attention too. They do seem to have personalities of their own.

    Family is the basic unit in society. How lovely that you cherish your family and relatives. How I wish all families are not broken. I love your lifestyle bro! Yes, we need to slow down sometimes. Man is supposed to be free and enjoy life to the fullest! You are very lucky because you can survive everywhere with all the skills you've learned and will be learning in an environment where you have to start from everything! 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

    Yes. The journey. I'm 54 and hearing you say this (at your young age!) makes me happy. Just sent our eldest to college this autumn and I so feel that statement. Enjoy Ivar every stage. It is apparent you will.

      Mary please stop talking like you consider yourself an old person. You are in your 50s! THIS IS STILL YOUNG! My own mum did not begin to age until she was 70, both physically and mentally. However once she adopted that mentality, that was the slippery slope to death not long after. NEVER THINK YOU ARE OLD.

    I appreciate and recognize how it is and how it feels when your family is split and far away. Thank you for sharing some of your Beautiful trip back to visiting far away family and the children sharing and playing.😉❤️

    I’m Finn and live in the states in New Hampshire. My niece went to teach in Finland and I’ve always wanted to visit but haven’t made it yet. My grandmother was from Haapavesi and grandfather from Karelia. I always wondered what it was like in a normal Finn home. I lived in Texas for 40 years but I was driven back to the tall trees and snow. Good luck to your building and getting it completed. Time does fly I’ve had to give my daughter my land so she can do what she wants with it because I’m getting old. I’m in my 60’s now and not in good health. My daughters are mixed race but they seem to have more of the Finnish qualities of life.They love the cold and the forest.I loved your video.

    I enjoy these videos so very much with glimpses of life so lovely and different on the surface from my own but maybe not so different at a deeper level. I am feeling that connection I often feel when I am traveling to other countries and meet and get to know the locals. It is a realization that we are all really one.

    So cool that you casually flow between the 2 languages when reading to Ivar, what a gift for him. Also love your outdoor kitchen♥ Can feel Matthias longing for his family, thank you for taking the time to share the lovely multi-generational videos of your family in Finland⛴

    You are living the life i wish i could live but too old and take care of grandkids. So i live my imaginary life through your videos. Beautiful. I support your goals. I taught horticulture for 20 years in our state prison system. So enjoys the tree species and other plants you have. Grew up on farm and love the sheep. Live slowly and love your life . United States is not nice now. I had severe reaction to covid vaccines. Your family stay safe. Wish i could send you money to help but we barely make it. Bless you and cary on with your wonderful videos.

    Finally caught up with all the videos on your channel, after over a year. Feels good to be up to date.
    Despite all the hard work, thank you for still making the videos, I can’t even imagine all the work & time it goes into making them. Good thing, Mathias is passionate about this, continues to outdo himself with each single video.

    I know making the videos is very time consuming for you but I would love to reiterate that the beauty and joy your videos bring to my life and other people's lives make it all worth it. Your sensibility in filming always bring tears to my eyes because the three of you are so humane, mindful and such beautiful souls that it touches my heart every time I see your productions.

    Thank you for sharing your family visit. It was lovely seeing your side of the family, and little Ivar’s excitement at being with them.
    You are so lucky to have such good loving people on both sides!
    Hugs from Canada!
