Your mom looks as sweet and loving as you Sarah! How clever the bed/shelf idea and the piglet catching and moving box, and another handcrafted chair. I hope Maggie enjoys the sunshine and massages enough to venture out a little more each day.
Aww, thanks you for such a wonderful message ❤️❤️ I hope to have better news for you next week, but she is still the same as of now
So glad that Maggie is looking better and it was a real pleasure meeting your lovely mum Sarah - I can see so much of her in you. A fabulous piece of artistry Luke, befitting of such an erudite and interesting woman. Whoever would have thought cardboard boxes weren't enough for boarlets - only you would make a Chinese puzzle box transporter! Remember on a really hot day you have visitation rights to the chair and Molly needs chuff chuff !
Thanks Pete x x Yes my mother had a great time meeting you two too x
luke is realy talented. Maggy start walking and enjoying your mud bath.
Thank you x x
Such a lovely video. Thank you for sharing your mother's visit with us. How brave of her to travel to see you and Luke and the land. I loved how Molly stayed by her side. And Luke's wonderfully creative Diana's chair! May Maggie continue to improve daily with all the love and care you give her! Bye, bye little piglets, as they leave for new homes. Love to you and Luke as you work and enjoy your off-grid life!
So happy you enjoyed it Susan x x Yes Molly gave my mother extra special attention and lots of kisses😁
So lovely to see you mum visiting, it seemed like a short visit though and I wished that she could have stayed longer! Clever Like to build the multipurpose bed and I love the mushroom chair/seat ! I sure hope that Maggie gets back on her legs!
She only stayed for two weeks but missed her dogs a lot so I think it was probably thee perfect amount of time for her😁
Molly is such a wonderful hostess, treating your mom as an extra special guest. Mom can keep special memories of nature, garden, sights and sounds to reflect on while she watches your future videos. What a gift to behold. Please get well, Maggie.
She is definitely watching videos differently now that she has had this experience first hand❤️❤️
@@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife So very true!!!😊
Love this episode
Loved seeing your mum and her enjoying the land she was so brave travelling that far
Daughters need there mum and mums need there daughters 😁
Come on Maggie up you get there are all your favourite things out side your house “ go Maggie go “
How beautiful is that chair wow Luke just wow
Sending you all love and wonderful vibes of health 😁🥰
Thanks Pat❤️ Maggie needs all the wonderful vibes she can catch x x ,it really was brave of my mother and I am happy that she absolutely fell in love with the place
Great to see your mom come for a visit!
It really is!
As always such a loving farm .. And HI mom. It is a pleasure to meet you
So nice of you Sondra x x
I’ve used the olla method in my greenhouse, just using an ordinary clay pot with a cut down cork as a bung n the bottom and an old dinner plate as a lid, it works just as well as the purpose made one. So good to see Maggie gaining strength, but I guess it will be a long haul.
Loved seeing your Mum, it reminded me of when my mother in law travelled all the way to the Azores from Scotland to see my sister in law & her family late in life.
Awesome I like hearing from others who used this method ❤️❤️Maggies journey will not be an easy one but hopefully she will not give up
Such a beautiful episode 💓 it must have been wonderful to share your life there with your old mam, Sarah! Luke, your art is so special. Very whimsical and unique, will definitely watch the video when it comes. The piggies are so cute, especially now that they don't seem so skittish anymore and let you pet them and give belly rubs. Wishing Maggie an ongoing well recovery 🙏🏻💓
Thanks Noony xx Yes it was a very special two weeks ❤️
What a joy to have your precious Mother visit you. Beautiful and very brave 🐖 🐷 🖤MAGGIE🤍 is looking amazing. Your love and dedication is once again proof of how healing takes place when one simply feels loved 💖 Luke you are so talented with your creations, Sarah is very lucky. You are so brave to say goodbye to your babies, it's very difficult. I hated having to find homes for my foster Piggies, I cried for days 😢
It is hard to say goodbye but I know we can't keep them ,we would have way too many problems ,if we did. Yes it was such a great two weeks with my mother , being able to share what we have with her is very special
Love those beautiful piglets. Maggie like being fed with a spoon. lol. So happy to see your mom visiting. She is only 3 yrs older than me. You favor your mom too. You can tell she enjoyed herself and also Molly. But who wouldn't love Molly? Luke is so handy and knowledgeable. Sarah you are so good with caring for the animals, not many people would do what you and Luke are doing for Maggie. I'm sure she is thankful to be your pet.
Molly loved my mother the second they met ,she would run up to the caravan every time we were away for a while eager to see her again😁
Your dog was her best buddy. 💞
Sarah, I am deeply affected by the moving, most valuable visit of your dear mother.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
MY HEART IS FULL!!! Tell Mom I Said, Hello! She reminds me of my Mom! ✝️🙏❤🇺🇸🇵🇹👣🍍☘🤗
I will do, thanks Melinda ♥️
Ditto! 💌💗💞💕
Diana I know that you are a very special lady because you have raised such a very special daughter. I am very glad you enjoyed your time off grid and how special is that chair that Luke made in your memory? You will have to come back to check that he is looking after it!! Sending healing vibes to Maggie. Sarah you are taking such good care of her and we all know what a toll it is taking. Such hard work but so worthwhile. Much love to you all xxx
Oh wow Thank you for this lovely message x x
Try getting an old towel under Maggies belly and take some weight off her rear legs, like a sling, you have to hold the towel and walk behind her, when i was young, our dog got hit by a car and it smashed it's pelvis, so we had to use the same technique so the dog could go to the garden and do her business, took several weeks but soon walking again once strength and confidence grew, good luck guys.. love what you doing..
Thank you for this, we did use this method with a blanket the first time we found her but havent done it again since then
Well done making bed into a cupboard. So glad your mum enjoyed her visit. Good health to the dear animals and yourselves ❤😊
Thank you x x
Sarah, It's so lovely that your mother could come for a visit. I know that these are memories you will both cherish.
❤️❤️❤️
So very nice to meet your mom Sarah. Luke showed such a big heart in doing those special things for her. I'm sure he made her some very tasty meals as well 😊. The bed/cabinet is really a clever idea, and the chair is gorgeous. I could tell how much she enjoyed herself. Any chance she would move to Portugal? 😄
You're taking excellant care of Maggie. I'm pulling for her to get up and walk. I've been wondering if the babies would retain more of their wild instincts but Sarah has them gentled and trained just like all the rest of your kids 👍.
That watering method is brilliant. I'm going to try something similar in my little garden patch.
Lovely video!! Take care!! 🥰🌿♥️
Oh yes every meal was delicious 😁 Even though she loved it here she loves her home in Malta and missed her three dogs
So glad your mom was able to make a visit, as we get older it gets harder… such a great video.
Thank you so much!
lovely chair! glad things ae going better with maggie and the babies.. nice to see your mom, im sure. she had a big smile for her chair
She certainly did😊
Like she said 😁😁she certainly did
How wonderful that your lovely mother could visit and due to modern technology you will always be able to re visit your precious time together . The bench for her is amazing 😊 . So glad Maggie is making progress to recovery, with your help she'll hopefully soon be going for walks and mud baths 😂
I hope so too |Nicola , poor Maggies journey to recovery is a slow one but hopefully the vet will be able to give us a better update on her health this week❤️❤️
So glad for you, that your mother Sarah came to visit you at your wonderful place! The mushroom chair is amazing! Hope to see Maggie walking next time!❤❤❤
I hope so too!❤️❤️
Sara, I love your colored boots and hello Luke❤️Luke and Sarah are u both Maltese?
Yes we are and thanks Victoria , boots are not a fashion statement,i had holes in the other two 🤣
Wasn’t it handy that you had one left and one right of each?😊
@@ChristineKelly1000 yes but i can still use the other two just not when I am walking through puddles
So nice to have your Mom come to visit, glad she made it to see Maggie, who seems a little better. Hopefully, she can make a full recovery. You both are so amazing I look forward to your videos every week, Thank you so much for sharing your life with us!
I hope so too x x So happy to hear that you really enjoy our videos Kathy x x
What a gratifying time to share Big Rock Farm with your mom! ❤ I am so glad she was able to come! Memories for a lifetime!
Yes it was!
How sweet of Luke to build that gorgeous chair for your Mom!😍🇨🇦
Love the chair and the piglets are gorgeous it's nice to see you with your mother mind has passed at 85 I miss her
Thanks so much Judy ❤️❤️❤️
So special Sarah and Luke that your mum was finally able to make it to your beautiful piece of Portugal. I do hope you have better news about Maggie's health this week.
LUKE, YOU ARE A FRIGGIN' GENIUS with your inventions. Good job mate!
Thank you x x
This was a perfect episode, Sarah! Your filming and editing were exceptionally good. The music was perfectly chosen. It subtly lifted and held the mood throughout the episode AND was the perfect volume! It was all over too soon. I’m very impressed, grateful and full of admiration for you both.
It was wonderful to see your mother derive so much enjoyment from her visit. She’ll have a much more invested interest in your future vlogs now that she has experienced first-hand your landscape.
Love from Brisbane ❤
Thank you so much for this x xI am so happy to hear that x x
I am happy to see you here. I have lost you. I haven’t seen you able to see your post or your live video for over two years so I’m grateful for today that I got to see you victoria living in United States From Malta.
That is why we recommend subscribing and hitting the bell 😁 but happy you found us again Victoria x x
It was wonderful to meet your beautiful mom, Sarah, and to see her enjoy your home, your menagerie of special animal characters, and to know your land. Such precious Mum and daughter memories you will both have collected by this visit, Sarah.
You have such a creative mind, Luke, and this video truly displayed your skills and was a testament to your kind, generous nature. And kudos to you, too, Molly! What a hostess and companion!
Maggie is getting superb treatment. She is a most fortunate mum.❤❤❤
Wow thank you Ros ❤️❤️❤️ Maggie seemed in better spirits this morning and we have just sold two baby girls to a lovely couple today so we are very happy
The piglets are sooo adorable! Loved seeing your Mom. Miss mine so much!😍🇨🇦
Lovely to see your Mum.Hope Maggie gets better....her appetite is very good!
Thanks so much , yes her appetite is great 😁
Delighted to see your mum visit, Sarah; delighted to see the great work Luke put in on the bed and magnificent chair to make her feel welcome, delighted to see improvements in Maggie's health - fingers crossed that she continues to improve.
The Olla method looks fascinating! Please, please keep us updated about how well it works, how often you have to top up the water, if the pots survive the rigours of life with you this summer ...
Thanks Neil and I will try to remember to keep you updated😁
That was such a beautiful episode. I loved seeing your mother and Luke was amazing to make her a bed AND an amazing chair. So very kind. I could see she had a truly wonderful time. That piglet catching box was amazing. Luke you are so clever. All the best. I hope Maggie improves.
Thank you so much Barbara
I never tire of watching this, never tire of reminiscing. ♥️
😊 great to ease Maggies burden. The boarlets are too much for her. ❤
Yes they are!
I guessed it was ur mom because there is a similarity and how physically close u stood near her...to me it seemed like a daughter parent close.
She looked happy at your tiny homestead.
Luke is very thoughtful and creative. Actually, both of you are very creative.
She said she felt at home the minute she stepped onto our land ❤️❤️
How wonderful that your mother was able to visit! She will have plenty of good memories! I hope the visit did her world of good to be out in so much nature! She would have been so happy to spend time with all of you and you with her. I love what Luke made for your mom! He did a great job! A work of art! He is such a thoughtful man! Take care of yourselves and each other!❤️🙏🏼👋🏻🇨🇦😎🫶🏼
It was! And now we have lovely memories and she has experienced this peaceful(most of the time) life for herself
Sara, you are an animal whisperer for sure! You are both amazing people and I am so happy your mom was able to come and see your spectacular home. I am sending Maggie lots of love.
Thank you so much !!❤️❤️
Luke you are a creative genius... loved seeing your mom Sarah and nice to hear Maggie is doing a bit better...see you next Sunday, have a lovely week ahead 🤗💖
Wow thanks so much❤️All the best Celia
What a wonderful daughter and son in law, where in the world you will find such a caring son in law that would create such a master piece for his mother in law! Bravo!! ♥♥♥
❤️❤️
Aww, lovely to see your mom enjoying herself at your place. So glad she got to come now, before it got too hot, while there were kunekuneboarlets here and there, as Maggie improved, while Molly had a birthday, after the piggy palaces were finished, while everything is green and wild flowers abound. I hope she'll have a thought to staying when it's not too hot or too cold. 😊
I like that oya/olla water method you're trying. Sounds great!
Gorgeous chair and cleverest bed/cupboard Luke crafted. She must return to use them more❣
The piglet catch+sorting box is genius! 🙆🏻♀️
Excellent production, Sarah. Top shelf. 🤗🥰
Thanks so very much Ruth❤️❤️❤️
Loved this guys 😘😘
Thank you x
Thank you for sharing your mother's visit with us and may your mom have safe travels home. Hope Maggie gets better soon. Molly looked after your mom very well, well done Molly. Have a lovely week Sarah and Luke and Sarah you look so much like your mom, so glad she came to visit and the chair Luke built for her was lovely.
Thank you for your lovely message x x Molly loved my mother as soon as she saw her 😁
Loved meeting your mom. :) I see where you get your love for animal's.
That is for sure ❤️
Hello Sara's mother. I enjoyed seeing you enjoying the holiday. ❤
So nice for your mom to spend time with you in your happy place . she must be very proud of you two . Your home is your dream and that makes any mom happy to see, could you move Maggie away from the wall? She must be tired of looking straight ito a wall. The chair is beautiful Luke .very creative!
Thank you Iris x x And Maggie drags herself around the room all the time. for that clip she just happened to be against the wall
Beautiful bed & shelf conversion
Thank you!
🪑 Diana's Throne... 😍
a creative work of art by l'artiste Luke 👏 Glad your mother got to experience your beautiful land.
Poor Maggie did she hurt her spine to become so paralysed?
The vet said it was probably MMA which is like post natal depression but he is coming again this week to check her out again since the antibiotics did not really work
l hope it's just depression but perhaps carrying the larger boar babies messed with her spine when giving birth?
Welcome to Sarah’s Mom❤
Thank you for this visual tour of your farm. It’s nice seeing your Mom, she will keep :-you and your husband company.
Lovely heart warming vlog. ♥️

Wow great job on that bed / storage Luke!! That chair!! You are so very creative..
Thanks so much! 😊
Wounderfull.Most happiest couple in the world
❤️❤️❤️ Hope you and Sanjeeta are doing great. Luke told me about your next adventure. Good luck on your restaurant business❤️❤️
I never tire of watching this. I so miss you, your place and the animal friends. X XXXX
I am so happy you can always remember your time here by watching these videos ❤️❤️
Oh my the pig falling over 😂😂😂😂 Spoiled babies 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤
Sarah... tipping kuneboarlets 🐷💤💤💤
Outstanding Craftsman ship 👍!😇!😇!😇!😇
Thank you Jerry ❤️
This was my favorite video!!!!!!!!
So happy to hear this Sonja❤️❤️
Thanks for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless you guys, maybe make a shelky two wheeler walker for Maggie like they have them for dogs.
Hopefully she wont need wheels and just recover to her old self 😁❤️
Your mom must have the time of her life 🥰 the landscape, a personal chef, a beautiful chair made especially for her, meeting all your animals and of course see her daughter after 6 years ❤ the little ones are so funny... as soon you're touching the belly, they fall over 😂😂😂😍 and Rupert still on duty 😅 i know that Maggie is much heavier than a dog.... but sometimes it helps to get like a piece of cloth or something under her belly near her behind legs and try/ help her walk.... so the muscles are getting some exercise.... just an idea 🤷♀️ hope she is getting well soon 🤞🤞🤞
We did get her out for one day a few days ago but she was not happy and now shakes and cries when we tell her we are going to take her out , we will wait until she decides she is ready and until then we will just keep encouraging her to😁❤️
I hope she will be back on her feet soon 🤞🙏 and the vet? What does he say about it... It just takes time?
Luke youre such a awesome guy.talented.from cape town south africa.
Aww Thank you x x
Hi Luke and Sarah,
Hope you're both keeping well, Sarah it was so lovely to see your mum there, I can definitely see the resemblance❤
Luke, what can I say 2 more creations that blow me away, The bed is absolute genius, you are one talented guy, well done you should be so proud ❤
I'm so glad Maggie is doing better, she's often in my thoughts. It sounds horrible but hopefully now the boys are gone it's less stress on her body and hopefully she won't miss them too much when she's surrounded by Peppa and her babies. But well done guys I know you do the very best for all of the animals and it shows 🥰
See you next week, have a great one and please take care of yourselves ❤xx
Thanks Mark it was so nice to finally share our piece of paradise with her x x Maggie making small improvements so if she keeps eating and getting stronger i am pretty sure she will make it ❤️❤️
@@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife it was lovely to watch, you've both got the same smile 😊
I'm sure Maggie will be fine, especially with you looking after her.
Take care guys♥️
It was nice to see your mother❤ hopefully Maggie gets better. I see improvement in her eyes! 💚 Luke 's chair is great again ! !💛
Thank you!! 😊She is in better spirits for sure and today another two babies found a really nice home so we are happy too
Beautiful video.

Yes, thank you x x
Just looking back to your older videos, love the clay pot idea!
They are working very well 😁
How wonderful that your mother was able to visit. Treasure it!❤
Yes it was!
Beautiful Video ❤ xx
Thank you!!
Please give Maggie some Vit. B compleks, you can get it from the chemist, the syrup kind you give fot the kids. For my dogs i give 3 to 4 drops, they are Molly's size. You can give Maggie half a teaspoon in some milk. That will make het strong again. I believe this will help!! Strongs to all of you. From South Africa .
Thanks so much Luke will go and get some today ❤️❤️
Lovies to all of you.
@hestervanvollenstee1457 luke bought it this morning and we gave her her first dose this morning x x
Only ones a day. She wil get very hungry.
@@hestervanvollenstee1457 yes just one dose in the morning😁😁
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸Lovely countryside sceneries. 🌷
Awesome Hi 😁
Lovely video, really nice to see your mum. Come on Maggie!
Encantadora silla de estilo daliniano ( Salvador Dalí ) y bellas criaturas en general 🌱🌿🌻💛✨️
Vaya, muchas gracias
Lovely video and so nice for you now to have the memories of your mum at your homestead. awww or Maggie hopefully she will recover soon.
I hope so too!❤️❤️
Lovely video xx
Thank you!!
A great visit for all involved!
Yes it was ❤️❤️
Luke and Sarah I must say that through your editing. You are able to make it come across through the video the absolute great love that you have for the lifestyle and everything you are doing. May blessings continue to come your way and show in everything you have and touch 😊. Thank you for sharing this journey with us I personally feel so relaxed every time after watching. So thank you very much 💟
Wow, thank you! This means so much to me x x x
New to your channel today. I just love it! Will be a subscriber!
Awesome ,so happy to hear you found us xx Welcome to our RUclips family Carolyn❤️❤️
Happy Sunday!
🌹🌹🌹🌹
Same to you!
GLAD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
We never miss a week so not sure what you mean😁
It was great that your Mother could come and visit you Sarah. Good job on the chair and the bed/shelf Luke. I hope Maggie recovers soon. I was just wondering would it encourage her to move if you left her grass just a little bit out the door of the piggy place? You could move it a little bit further away each time to encourage her. Best of luck.😊❤
No unfortunately anything i leave her that is not close she just gives up on, she moves from one side of the house to the other when she makes to much of a mess on one side though
@@lukeandsarahsoffgridlife poor thing. I hope the vet has good news for you next week. ❤️
Well done getting your mother there. That must have been great for you both. We are experiencing similar problems, trying to lure a bestie down here from England. Trying to be patient.
Good luck hope you manage ❤️
Beautiful ❤
I enjoyed this video,very much. Thanks for sharing your mum's visit. Beautiful chair for your mum. Luke is a genius and you are the best mama to all your animals, Sarah. ❤ just curious to know where is your from? I hope you don't mind.
We are originally from Malta
Obrigado pelo vídeo ❤❤
❤
Just checking to see if I missed any videos. Oddly, most of them are showing up as half watched lately. This is odd because I always watch the whole thing. Thought I’d let you know, as I hope it doesn’t affect your ratings.
That is very strange . RUclips is a funny place
👏👍
31:49 If anyone can, it will be you ❤❤
❤️❤️❤️ Thanks Biddie
Where did your little babies go?
To one of our neighbours😁
🌟👏👍🍀💐
Thank goodness that pigs are so motivated by food! You two have been so patient and caring with Maggie. Do you know what the problem is?
The vet thought it was MMA but since she is still not walking he is coming for another visit tomorrow
Good luck with that. She is such a sweetie.
I was just wondering if Maggie is missing the chicken friends since she wanted to "nest" with them and have her babies there. It seems she is very far away from them... and far away from u & Luke, isolated.
We are trying to get Maggie up so she can come and spend more time near us but she has to get stronger and be able to walk in order to do that , she was never close to the chickens , that was Peppa but she does needs our company and Peppas ❤️❤️
