    We taught our son to pick up his toys from a very young age, and it became a habit. I taught him how to sort his toys too, and when other kids came over to play, I told them that they must pick up the toys when they stopped playing. This teaches responsibility and how to organize and is very helpful in school and in life in general.

    Although I admire your hospitality and it’s wonderful to hear that Tolya gives you some time to yourself when you need it…you sound positively exhausted, it’s too much on your plate as is, new mother, two very small children, renovating your house and hosting soooo many people. Put yourselves first for a little while, it will get better when your home is finished and you can move in and relax but nobody would think less of you if some friends stay at an airBnB instead of your place once in a while, you’re doing so much for others already. Take care of yourselves and stay healthy.

Move some of the toys into your bedroom closet or anywhere the kids can't reach! Just exchange when the kids tire of the toys they are playing with. Grammy from Texas in the USA

    I am the same, for me i need clean organised and minimal home. So when i don't have it it is very stressful and makes me feel claustrophobic so having a clean and neat and simple home with good systems in place that is also beautiful and calm to be in , makes me very relaxed and happy so my me time is also making my environment one i can be content in the day to day so even small daily things are fufilling and not chores.
    I love the saying "make a life you don't need a vacation from."

    Vika, you are doing such a wonderful job helping others. You are good at hosting, cleaning, and time management. What a lovely home you are taking care of. I’m sure God, is blessing you and Tolya, for the compassion you’re showing others. It is hard and time consuming trying to anticipate and meet the needs of visitors while also taking care of your own family. I watched you do all that cleaning and by the time you decided to have your tea break…. I was exhausted 😂lol!😅. Girl, you wore me out!😊. Keep remembering to take breaks for yourself when needed. I really enjoy your videos and you never fail to have good content. It’s extremely hot here in the states, and if likewise where you are, remember to stay hydrated, wear sunscreen, and stay safe.

    @SimplyBeautiful516 10 місяців тому

    Just found your channel. I’m finding great encouragement!! Yes, as Christians, we are called to be hospitable in general, but I agree with you that in the New Testament Scriptures hospitality is mentioned in one of the lists of certain divine gifts. I believe that opening up your home continually as you are doing necessitates that gift from our Heavenly Father God. Obviously, Not having this gift doesn’t mean we aren’t to be hospitable, just not to the same level as the person who was graciously given this important gift. It’s the same as with any other gift God grants an individual, such as teaching or evangelism. We will all teach and evangelize but not to the same level as those HE has specifically chosen for that task with HIS gift to accomplish it. I pray for strength and mental peace for you today in this extra busy hospitality season. Thank you for your words of wisdom and encouragement. ❤
