    As someone with decades on you, what I love for you two are the abundance of adventures you’ve already had because those memories become more cherished as you get older. My wife and I can go down a hole talking about our first visit to Greece 20 years ago and some of that same joy and excitement comes right back to us. Keep living and storing up those adventures and sweet moments.

    Seeing your joy - feeling your joy - makes me reorient my whole life. It is pure gratitude with life lessons included. You are teaching all of us the pure ness of loving life - no matter what it brings you- from the van to the boat - and now the container house-- you are a gift to all of who have chosen the conventional paths - you are a sweet reminder of the gift of gratitude and the inspiration of adventure from the heart. No one will ever be able to take the joy away from the memories you’ve made together and the gift of sharing them with all of us. You have a very rich life. Very rich...❤️

It is lovely to see how proud of Lou’s building work you are and how much you are enjoying your family surroundings. I wish you all well as you progress onwards over this year.

    Dana - Thank you for sharing so much of your lives with us! I have three boys, and I have one tip for you: consider getting a sling so that you can hold Max on your hip but still use both hands. You could try a ring sling but something like a Didymos wrap is so comfortable and versatile once you get used to it.

It's so cool to see you guys moved in there and seeing how you're using the space and land. I love this video too! this format with Dana's narration is really compelling and cool for a change, the wide shots of the land are gorgeous. I love how you change up the style sometimes, it feels really loose and open and creative, I love that. Have a great week you guys!! ❤xo

I've been following you since the van days and lovely to hear your reflections on how some discomfort then brings on such growth and adaptation to what's happening in your life now. Always a joy watching you and Lou and the kids create something to share with us each week. Thank you for letting us see these little peeks into your lives ❤

    It seems to me that you have the best of both worlds… your shipping containers feel like a sturdy cozy den whilst the wall tent feels like a big open-air breezy home. It will be the perfect guest house (guest tent) for friends in the summer time. Many years ago I camped under a spruce tree on my property whilst my home was being made liveable, and I can honestly relate to the absolute bliss that comes from having a home with running water, an oven, and space to cook and live. I can relate to the change of clothing situation you are in which is temperature driven… even more-so I am always amazed at the amount of shoes, boots, and slippers that embrace our feet in a single day. It’s all part of wilderness living. We really feel the full impact of the seasons when we spend so much time outside. I look forward to seeing you and your family navigate the seasons in your cozy home on your beautiful land… and I am excited to see those cookies finally come out of your oven!! Great video today… I feel your bliss. Thank-you for sharing, Ⓜary🇨🇦🌲

    I lived for many years in an outdoor Wood Camp for Vipassana, which is an I Indian meditation method and one essential part of the meditation was doing the dishes by the sea in slow motion. So doing the dishes or one thing at a time and not thinking like in modern Life what is next is really healing. I hope your path, living in the woods offgrid, will bring you not only joy but also many insights. I can imagine it is challenging with a kid.

    I love following along in this season of your life. I’ve been watching for a few years but we have so many similarities at this time in our lives. My husband and I also live tiny and have a son, Forest, who is just a few weeks younger than Max. Forest didn’t start solids until recently but he is devouring everything I give him now. Lol. We are also plant-based and I show love through my cooking. I’ve been making sourdough discard bread, because it’s way easier to make a loaf with the yummy flavor but much less time, and Forest loves it! Thanks for deciding to share Max. Cheers!

    Good morning 😃
    You’re beautiful naturally, really though.
    My mom always told us we were the dish washer.. lol 😂
    It would’ve been nice, when my first daughter was little, to have a dishwasher. she would crawl around in the kitchen (we lived in a small trailer) while I would do dishes. I had to stop to get a onion peel from the back of your throat. She would reach in-between to find all those things that she shouldn’t be putting in your mouth. I have no idea how intuition works, but managing to save our children from all the little things they get into, is amazing in itself.
    I think you have an fabulously-wonderful set up, how cool 😎 it’s really nice to watch you make your delicious vegan 🥑 food, 🥗 again.
    You’re so good At everything you do…how exciting to be in the tent ⛺️ it is so beautiful out there among Gods creation.
    So nice seeing you this week. Good Job 👏 Keep it up 👍
