10:11 you should never apologize for your videos. They are some of the most interesting videos we have seen and look forward to each and every one. Ivar is a little angel and you and Tova have done an excellent job in raising him. American families should have the child rearing ability you guys have😁😁
There is nothing small about the way you and your family are living. This is very healing to see. Your struggles and difficulties are very real , but also very pure. Ivar is at the center of your life now, but it is filled with lasts. There will be a last time you read to him or put a puzzle together . But it will last . There are so many firsts to come . The first time he does some farm chore all alone, or maybe reads an entire book alone . Those firsts will lead to many more . I don know what it is like to wake up in the same room with Mother and Father cuddled in a bed . To hear the sounds of laughter in the morning . As a child there are no more important or big things in life . The world is not passing you by , It is you all that are passing life with flying colors . My wife and I receive great joy to hear Ivars laugh and see his smiling face . We rarely ever post comments but today I must. I am reminded that its not the power hungry politicians and businessmen that conquer the world its the Ivars who have such loving parents that do . Your life is beautiful. Never forget how rare it is . Like a gem there are not so many . We try to do those things like you , growing food and raising some chickens . Its not much but also brings us joy . One day I hope all the world can see the great accomplishment of family in the way you are doing this . Would that I could i would like to spend a summer gahtering hay and building the new home structure , feeding the sheep and hear Ivar laugh . God bless you all . and truly thank you !
My wife passed last May, sho loved your videos. She especially enjoyed Ivar, so this would have brought her great joy. I hope you have many, many years to enjoy your family.
I really enjoy hearing your Swedish family talk…and now the cat purring in your lap. I want to watch this because it’s a comfort to me in this crazy world.
I can only speak for myself but I know I am not alone, I thoroughly enjoy when you include family videos. I am especially happy that you are now translating for dear Ivar. Remember that creativity is like the tide, it ebbs and flows. Much love to y’all! I can’t believe it has been three years!
Please don’t ever feel that no one wants to watch your videos. Everything you produce is of interest and some of your nature films are absolutely stunning. I have learnt so much about traditional building and animal husbandry from your work but some of my favourites have been the ordinary, every day family ones. I love watching Ivar growing up. I’m fascinated to hear the Swedish language and find so many words that are the same as, or very similar to, the English ones. My family are from the north east of England and we use the word ‘bairn’ meaning child. I’ve heard it all my life but didn’t know it came from Scandinavia. My younger grandchildren are a similar age to Ivar so seeing him doing so many of the things they do makes me smile. Happy Birthday Ivar -or in Welsh- Penblwydd Hapus.
I love seeing this content. It is wonderful to see the joy of receiving his books. Children these day and age are given way to much STUFF. You gave your son the magical experience of a story told by his father.
These videos are a gift to the world Mathias. I started to tear up when Ivar was holding your friend's hand and showing him around the farm. These videos are sacred footage of sweet human family life. Both you and Tova are doing a great job lovingly training little Ivar. Your countrymen should adore your little family. You are a credit to Sweden.
Well, please keep doing your videos because I want to watch them. It’s refreshing to see how some people, such as yourselves, live such a great life. I know it’s hard sometimes but you have your health, your family members, great healthy food and a wonderful place to live. I wish I was in your shoes and was much younger
OH MY GOD! I LOOOVE IVAR!!!!!! SO SO CUTE HE IS.. I LOVE HIM SO MUCH HE IS VERY VERY SWEET! SENDIG A HUGE HUG AND CONGRATULATION ! TILLYKKE SØDE IVAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤
I smiled throughout the entire vlog...Ivar is such a joy to watch...he is growing up so fast.... please do not ever feel confused about showing us personal family footage, because you are all such remarkable people, and inspire the goodness in all of us. Every video is a blessing, and this one was particularly dear. ❤❤❤
A beautiful boy in a beautiful environment. Ivar is so sweet and kind and incredibly intelligent! Never assume your family videos aren't worth watching. It is an honor for us to be given glimpses into your enriching lives and loving family ❤ Your way of life and bringing up of Ivar is so refreshing to see, and important to remind us the value of as this world gets crazier and crazier. Much love and blessings from Eastern Ontario, Canada
Your family videos are my favorite, they always bring me peace and joy; especially after having a bad day today. It's a joy to watch Ivar grow-thank you for sharing❤
I’m always impressed with your storytelling, videography and, even more important, is the kind & compassionate way you and your wife are raising your son. It doesn’t matter if you’re moving animals, telling the the Christmas season story that included your son and wife (as well as everything that happened in the background) or this one of his birthday celebration and every other video. When I see your vlog…I want to watch it. Thank you for being you and sharing your life with us.
Do not appologize for posting family videos, it is nice. We have enjoyed watching from the day of his birth, to today. We appreciate when you build things. You are remarkable with an axe, but you are remarkable as a Pappa, and husband. Ost från Nederländerna. Gouda?
What a wonderful record of a very special day! Watching Ivar making the jigsaw puzzle was totally consuming - I was with him with each piece! Such a rounded and grateful little person, enjoying life with his Mum & Dad, and all the animals. Thank you for letting us share your gift too - it is a real privilege! Sending love to you all from England!
Happy Birthday to Ivar! Your parents are doing a wonderful job, and we watch because it is so fun to see you grow and learn. This is the best time of all for the three of you ---- and so relaxing to watch!
I was reminded of an experience of my own, when you described working on videos and Ivar being so interactive. My daughter was young when I studied for my PhD, and my professors felt I had lots of time to work on my studies WHILE I cared for my daughter... and their expectations reflected that attitude. They were fools at best, and inhumane at worst, I never knew which! Of course, my daughter's best interests were prioritized, by me.
It is always interesting to hear how Ivar speaks and the funny way of putting things that he has. My favorite stock response to his more unusual statements is "Is that so?".
I stop this video at your question to answer without further listening first to your own answer. Most of us love our family, or extended family. Most of us love our quiet times. Many of us have experienced the same period in times for our children, as Tova and you are experiencing with Ivar. And love to in a way, relive those moments by watching the videos you both kindly share with your friends on the socials. Or for those still to have kids in their lives, taking a cue on what a healthy relationship looks like. We want to see a wholesome love in the city, or the forest. Both resonate with the better half of our being. they give us joy in the present moment. They offer us an achievable hope for the future. Love and hugs to the Talasbuan family on the screen and around the world. Now,,, on to the rest of this video.
Happy birthday lucky boy! You have this opportunity to live slowly, happyly, surrounded by nature and to have such a great parents. I wish you only health. You have everything that one humen child needs. Love and his parents time! ❤
We love watching your genuine life and find cold life interesting or relatable. It is appreciated. Seeing how Ivar thinks is amazing. It puts a perspective like no other. Thank you for sharing such a personal moment in your lives. It is precious.
Happy birthday from Australia 🇦🇺 Ivar. Papa we watch the show for all its content, cooking created projects with buildings, and am waiting to see your bigger home for the need of space. I love your vlog...😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
The most darling conversations with Ivar. Warmed my heart. Reminds me of my children when they were small. WIshing you a very blessed birthday, dear Ivar. You are loved by so many who have never even met you in person, precious boy. Don't grow up too fast. You have plenty of time to be a man. Huge hugs from the USA. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life with us. The precious moments of interaction between you and your dear son are a such a blessing to so many people. You may be having doubts that people would want to see that. Don't. It is so pure and lovely. For one it may bring back happy memories. For another it may show them how loving and kind people can be to one another where they have only experienced unkindness. It can also teach parents how to be good parents (because you ARE good parents.)
I love the glimpses into your everyday lives. I feel people crave the simple things and we need to slow down in our busy lives to enjoy them.. The work will always be there, but Ivar will only be little once. Happy Birthday little man😊
Absolutely “ this family are indeed grounded, and have such an important lesson to teach us in the importance of keeping our feet on the ground. I’m so grateful that I discovered this channel - it has certainly given a richness to my life!
My husband was raised in VERY similar ways to Ivar, except in the US, 45 years prior. His parents were part of the 1960s-1970s back to the land movement. They are among a handful of people who have maintained their lifestyle for over 60 years, through all phases of their lives. They are still on their land, just beginning their eighth decade of life, and we are beginning to talk about how to prepare them for a good and humane passing from life (hopefully still over a decade away). There are no videos of my husband as a child- there are barely pictures, as his folks didn’t have a camera! Long story short, it is wonderful to see this video as it is a like a window into my husband’s past. I cried quite a bit watching this video- happy tears, which mostly started with seeing references to Findus because I love those stories (in translation to English) so much, and read them to our own children that we are raising in a slightly more urban version of your lifestyle. (We’ve read them Moomintrolls also, but Findus and his friend Pettson is very highly respected in our household!) This is a long-winded way of saying: thank you for such a wonderful video, and for sharing Ivar with us, and for making your art and sharing it with the world. It has value in a cultural moment that has forgotten the most important bits of life!
Happy Birthday Ivar 🎂. You are such a smart ,sweet and funny little boy.Tova and Mathias you are such wonderful parents Ivar is so lucky. I wish Ivar the best of heath this year. Mathias I just want to say don't be hard on yourself and your videos I love anything you and Tova share especially Ivar. It doesn't matter what you share with the world or myself idc if it's just watching the water in the creek flow by I'll watch it because you make everything so enjoyable and so peaceful I envy your life. I look forward to every video and sometimes watch them multiple times. Keep them coming you never disappoint. ❤
If we didn't like to watch your family videos we wouldn't be here!! I think people live vicariously through others sometimes. I thoroughly enjoy your content 😊 Happy birthday, Ivar! 🥳
It's a privilege to watch you and your lovely wife, with the help of your family, bring up such a lovely and highly intelligent boy. Ivar is a joy to watch and yes, it seems like yesterday when he was born.
We have been with you since Ivan was born, so we are interested in how he is growing up. I love how he asks a lot of questions and has a lot to say. Not all children talk so much. He is smart and wants to learn.👍❤️😄
Hey lovely people. Many greetings from the Netherlands ( not Holland) 😂 Matthias...before you know it Ivar will be a teenager, so keep enjoying this times... We love all of your videos!
I am actually watching while my homemade Bread 🍞 is cooking in the oven can’t get much better on a Friday day evening ….Thank you for sharing this episode
Your boy is such a treasure. Good job, mom and dad. My two girls are age 16 and 23. I really miss the days of reading little books to them. However, they love to read and I am happy about that.
Happy birthday Ivar and you are such an adorable and precious boy. God bless you both for being an exceptional parents and I love and enjoy your every time you are on. God's blessing and favors over your family always.
I love love love watching your sweet family videos. And especially seeing Iivar as the focus. Your videos are like little jewels. I am grateful to support you w my Patreon donations. More please.
We do! We want to watch! I think I speak for many of us when I tell you that we enjoy these snippets of your real life...a life many of us are unfamiliar with but enjoy learning about! Happy Birthday 🎉 to sweet Ivar! Thank you for sharing him with us!
Please know that your videos bring comfort and joy to so many of us, please never doubt the beauty and value of your daily life. You have no idea how deeply some of us are suffering, and how much your videos help us find hope to go on. Never stop.
Happy 🎉happy birthday Ivar. Such a delightful wee fellow 💕 you are. Wow, three years has passed so quickly. It's wonderful to see how inquisitive and clever you are. You certainly can go fast on your ski bike. I'm looking forward to lots more in your winter wonderland. Hugs 🫂 from Australia.
In USA we call it Gouda (pronounced GUD UH). It is one of the most delicious of all cheeses in my opinion. Very buttery. Melts well too. Happy birthday Ivar! You are a beautiful boy and as far as I'm concerned you are one of the luckiest humans on Earth! Enjoy childhood. The magic time of life.
I personally love vids of your family life! HE is so smart for his age! You and your wife are doing an excellent job! I've heard alot from other creators,of getting burnout. Maybe that's the case hun.....? That cheese looks so yummy! I love cheese!
Don't worry who will want to watch. Ivar and your little family are the only reason I have subscribed! I love watching your family grow as well as your homestead. Happy birthday Ivar, from America! You always make me smile 😃
Happiest of Birthdays to dear sweet Ivar! May your life be filled with God's blessings. Thank you for inviting me to your birthday celebration Ivar, it was very enjoyable. I hope the snow disappears and the flowers soon to your little area of the world.
È così emozionante osservare il vostro bambino interessato ai libri ,interagire con voi in modo dolce .siete un esempio di famiglia sana.auguri piccolo di casa ❤
I have been watching you guys from before Ivar was born. I thoroughly enjoyed his birth video, as I am a nurse-midwife from the USA, now living in France. I have loved every single video that you have made and especially the ones that have show Ivar as he has grown. It's like watching one of my own grandchildren growing. Please know that it is a pleasure seeing Ivar going from that new born baby to the three year , who is now celebrating those three years with his family!!!!!!
Don't ever doubt what you are doing in your filming. I love watching Ivor growing up and enjoy every video you produce. Your every day life as a family is fascinating and informative. Don't feel that you have to justify what you are doing, just keep doing it. Your many viewers are proof that your videos are brilliant.
it was lovely seeing Ivar share his life with us celebrating his big day of turning 3. I loved seeing Tova's photo as a little girl at age 3 too. Such a special moment. Happy Third Birthday, Ivar!
There are many draw backs to sharing your family with strangers on the internet...but take heart, many of us feel it is a privilege and honour to watch him grow. I probably won't have grandbabies, and I know I am not the only one. You are helping fill a little need in my heart. Also, I am Canadian and I watch your content because it's nice to feel I'm not the only one still in winter! Kids kill creativity some time. It all goes into them. You are only getting more creative because he is teaching you to adapt and grow. You might not see this now, but you will in a few years.
I can’t imagine trying to capture a 3 year old’s Birthday on camera let alone do it as well as you. I follow many people on utube and probably look forward to your videos the most. Thank you for sharing your life with me!
Watching this child grow over the last three years has been an honour and a true pleasure.
Absolutely! I feel very humbled to have been able to share this beautiful family’s joy!
10:11 you should never apologize for your videos. They are some of the most interesting videos we have seen and look forward to each and every one. Ivar is a little angel and you and Tova have done an excellent job in raising him. American families should have the child rearing ability you guys have😁😁
Very well said 💞 myself as well 🎉❤
Your videos are beautiful. You haven’t posted one I have not liked. Thank you!
It is important for the world to see a child raised in such a healthy way. I want to watch this child grow.
I agree!
Absolutely agree!!!❤❤❤
Subscribe quick! This family has given my family so much joy over the last few years just absorbing their culture and lifestyle.
Most definitely want watch him grow and become a well adjusted young man. I hope I can live that long😊❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗
We love seeing Ivar grow and see the world through his eyes! Happy Birthday Ivar!
There is nothing small about the way you and your family are living. This is very healing to see. Your struggles and difficulties are very real , but also very pure. Ivar is at the center of your life now, but it is filled with lasts. There will be a last time you read to him or put a puzzle together . But it will last . There are so many firsts to come .

He is very alert,inquisitive,has great fine motor skills..!
He is a gifted,pure & handsome boy!!❤
You are both doing a great job raising him!
I’m sure that I am not alone in appreciating being witness to your parenting journey.
My wife passed last May, sho loved your videos. She especially enjoyed Ivar, so this would have brought her great joy. I hope you have many, many years to enjoy your family.
So sorry for your loss!
So very sorry for your loss.
So very sorry
I really enjoy hearing your Swedish family talk…and now the cat purring in your lap. I want to watch this because it’s a comfort to me in this crazy world.
Indeed! Simple, wholesome day to day activities. I too gain a great deal from sharing time with a puss.
It has been so lovely watching this little boy get to three years of age. He is adorable.
Så otroligt fin video ❤ Kan inte sluta le när man får höra Ivars gulliga funderingar 🥰
Hello to the kind soul Jonna & Johan ♥️
I can not believe Ivar is three years old already where does the time go
I can only speak for myself but I know I am
not alone, I thoroughly enjoy when you include family videos. I am especially happy that you are now translating for dear Ivar. Remember that creativity is like the tide, it ebbs and flows. Much love to y’all! I can’t believe it has been three years!
Please don’t ever feel that no one wants to watch your videos. Everything you produce is of interest and some of your nature films are absolutely stunning.

Happy Birthday Ivar -or in Welsh- Penblwydd Hapus.
And this was Ivar's gift to us. Thank you tiny Sir. You are so kind to share your day with us all.
💞💕💚
What you doing as parents are amazing! You are raising a magnificent wholesome human being and that’s where your creativity is manifesting itself!
More of a family stuff, please!
Happy birthday Ivar
It's such a blessing to watch his little mind grow.
I love seeing this content. It is wonderful to see the joy of receiving his books. Children these day and age are given way to much STUFF. You gave your son the magical experience of a story told by his father.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY IVAR,!!
Mathais, of course we want to watch and enjoy your family moments, Thank you for sharing!❤
Ivar blowing out his birthday cake candles is like a Carl Larsen illustration. You are richly Blessed. Susan
i don't have grandchildren, so this is a special event for me.
These videos are a gift to the world Mathias. I started to tear up when Ivar was holding your friend's hand and showing him around the farm.

Well, please keep doing your videos because I want to watch them. It’s refreshing to see how some people, such as yourselves, live such a great life. I know it’s hard sometimes but you have your health, your family members, great healthy food and a wonderful place to live. I wish I was in your shoes and was much younger
1 billion "like" from me!!! Happy birthday Ivar. Sorry for being late but youtube did not show this video before!!!! Love and appreciation from Italy.

Every video is a blessing, and this one was particularly dear. ❤❤❤

Omgosh, I can’t believe it’s been 3 years already! Happy birthday, Ivar! 🤗❤️🎂 he needs a sibling!

How precious he is....
Happy birthday from Australia 🇦🇺 Ivar. Papa we watch the show for all its content, cooking created projects with buildings, and am waiting to see your bigger home for the need of space. I love your vlog...😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
The most darling conversations with Ivar. Warmed my heart. Reminds me of my children when they were small. WIshing you a very blessed birthday, dear Ivar. You are loved by so many who have never even met you in person, precious boy. Don't grow up too fast. You have plenty of time to be a man. Huge hugs from the USA. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life with us. The precious moments of interaction between you and your dear son are a such a blessing to so many people. You may be having doubts that people would want to see that. Don't. It is so pure and lovely. For one it may bring back happy memories. For another it may show them how loving and kind people can be to one another where they have only experienced unkindness. It can also teach parents how to be good parents (because you ARE good parents.)
I love the glimpses into your everyday lives. I feel people crave the simple things and we need to slow down in our busy lives to enjoy them.. The work will always be there, but Ivar will only be little once. Happy Birthday little man😊
Thank you so much for sharing your lifestyle and beautiful family with the world, It brings me much joy, Aloha!
Happy Birthday Ivar, wow where has the time gone. I feel so blessed seeing how your family has grown. Thank you...
We enjoy seeing what is important to you.
I remember his birth! Happy Birthday!
I assure you! Mattias. We're enchanted with the views of life that you share.
I am grateful for these simple moments with your family. They are so grounding. We all need to see and feel people who love so well.
Absolutely “ this family are indeed grounded, and have such an important lesson to teach us in the importance of keeping our feet on the ground. I’m so grateful that I discovered this channel - it has certainly given a richness to my life!
My husband was raised in VERY similar ways to Ivar, except in the US, 45 years prior. His parents were part of the 1960s-1970s back to the land movement. They are among a handful of people who have maintained their lifestyle for over 60 years, through all phases of their lives. They are still on their land, just beginning their eighth decade of life, and we are beginning to talk about how to prepare them for a good and humane passing from life (hopefully still over a decade away). There are no videos of my husband as a child- there are barely pictures, as his folks didn’t have a camera! Long story short, it is wonderful to see this video as it is a like a window into my husband’s past. I cried quite a bit watching this video- happy tears, which mostly started with seeing references to Findus because I love those stories (in translation to English) so much, and read them to our own children that we are raising in a slightly more urban version of your lifestyle. (We’ve read them Moomintrolls also, but Findus and his friend Pettson is very highly respected in our household!)
This is a long-winded way of saying: thank you for such a wonderful video, and for sharing Ivar with us, and for making your art and sharing it with the world. It has value in a cultural moment that has forgotten the most important bits of life!
Happy Birthday Ivar 🎂. You are such a smart ,sweet and funny little boy.Tova and Mathias you are such wonderful parents Ivar is so lucky. I wish Ivar the best of heath this year.
Mathias I just want to say don't be hard on yourself and your videos I love anything you and Tova share especially Ivar. It doesn't matter what you share with the world or myself idc if it's just watching the water in the creek flow by I'll watch it because you make everything so enjoyable and so peaceful I envy your life. I look forward to every video and sometimes watch them multiple times. Keep them coming you never disappoint. ❤
Such a little sweetie!! Happy Birthday Ivar!! I still remember the day you were born! 🎉🤗🎂😁
Three year olds are so much fun. your creativity will come back and you will get back into it.
One day Ivar could film his mother and father
If we didn't like to watch your family videos we wouldn't be here!! I think people live vicariously through others sometimes. I thoroughly enjoy your content 😊 Happy birthday, Ivar! 🥳
It's a privilege to watch you and your lovely wife, with the help of your family, bring up such a lovely and highly intelligent boy. Ivar is a joy to watch and yes, it seems like yesterday when he was born.
Wow it seems like just yesterday watching his birth right inside that cabin. Happy 3rd birthday Ivar. You have grown into a handsome young boy.
We have been with you since Ivan was born, so we are interested in how he is growing up. I love how he asks a lot of questions and has a lot to say. Not all children talk so much. He is smart and wants to learn.👍❤️😄
Hey lovely people.
Many greetings from the Netherlands ( not Holland) 😂
Matthias...before you know it Ivar will be a teenager, so keep enjoying this times... We love all of your videos!
What a wonderful little boy you have! Happy birthday Ivar.
Happy birthday, Ivar! Lots of people love watching you grow up, me included. You are getting so big!
It has been a delightful journey to watch him grow.
I am actually watching while my homemade Bread 🍞 is cooking in the oven can’t get much better on a Friday day evening ….Thank you for sharing this episode
Your boy is such a treasure. Good job, mom and dad. My two girls are age 16 and 23. I really miss the days of reading little books to them. However, they love to read and I am happy about that.

Happy 🎉happy birthday Ivar. Such a delightful wee fellow 💕 you are. Wow, three years has passed so quickly. It's wonderful to see how inquisitive and clever you are. You certainly can go fast on your ski bike. I'm looking forward to lots more in your winter wonderland. Hugs 🫂 from Australia.
In USA we call it Gouda (pronounced GUD UH). It is one of the most delicious of all cheeses in my opinion. Very buttery. Melts well too.
Happy birthday Ivar! You are a beautiful boy and as far as I'm concerned you are one of the luckiest humans on Earth! Enjoy childhood. The magic time of life.
All dear memories from when my son was so little ❤ Thank you for this gift! Happy birthday little big birthday boy!
I personally love vids of your family life! HE is so smart for his age! You and your wife are doing an excellent job!

Happy birthday, Ivar! What a big boy you are!
I have been watching you guys from before Ivar was born. I thoroughly enjoyed his birth video, as I am a nurse-midwife from the USA, now living in France. I have loved every single video that you have made and especially the ones that have show Ivar as he has grown. It's like watching one of my own grandchildren growing. Please know that it is a pleasure seeing Ivar going from that new born baby to the three year , who is now celebrating those three years with his family!!!!!!
Don't ever doubt what you are doing in your filming. I love watching Ivor growing up and enjoy every video you produce. Your every day life as a family is fascinating and informative. Don't feel that you have to justify what you are doing, just keep doing it. Your many viewers are proof that your videos are brilliant.
Happy Birthday 🎉🎉 Sweet Ivar we love you!
Who watch your videos for a long time, I’m sure they are interested with your every day life too. I am! Happy birthday Ivar!
Happy birthday Ivar! I love your videos. I have been watching your channel before Ivar!
Happy birthday dear boy Ivar. Watching you grow up has been such a joy. You have given happiness to many people's lives.
it was lovely seeing Ivar share his life with us celebrating his big day of turning 3. I loved seeing Tova's photo as a little girl at age 3 too. Such a special moment. Happy Third Birthday, Ivar!
There are many draw backs to sharing your family with strangers on the internet...but take heart, many of us feel it is a privilege and honour to watch him grow. I probably won't have grandbabies, and I know I am not the only one. You are helping fill a little need in my heart. Also, I am Canadian and I watch your content because it's nice to feel I'm not the only one still in winter! Kids kill creativity some time. It all goes into them. You are only getting more creative because he is teaching you to adapt and grow. You might not see this now, but you will in a few years.
I can’t imagine trying to capture a 3 year old’s Birthday on camera let alone do it as well as you. I follow many people on utube and probably look forward to your videos the most. Thank you for sharing your life with me!
Thanks for posting and sharing. Very nice to share the celebration.
May God bless this little creature.Happy birthday to you Ivar😊
Happy birthday Ivar, from the country that has elephants & lions!
