    This is a special episode, maybe a bit slow for some, but I feel it was valuable to capture a whole day with focus on the conversations we have with Ivar. Tova was away on a weekend meeting with friends.

    Ivar is very aware of your sadness with the loss of Misack. I’m so glad to see you in a new video as the end of the last video you seemed very down and exhausted. I could see the pain in your face. You give so much to us (subscribers) and your calming videos have helped immensely through my own mental health and life challenges. I wish you the same peace and happiness you provide to your subscribers. ❤️❤️

    • @allie1953
      @allie1953 2 роки тому +5

      Yes- the videos are calming but especially this one. This is a time when we need to see (and feel a part of) the life they have made- there in the midst of Nature, living creatively and simply and normally. I have bookmarked this video and will go back to it when I need inspiration or to feel calmed by watching a healthy, normal lifestyle.

    I loved watching this. Ivar is an enchanting little boy. I love the way he sings to himself when he is outside. It was a real treat to spend so much time with the two of you just watching him being busy and chatting away. You are a very gentle Dad and I loved the way he wanted you to hold his hand ‘in the middle of the night’.
    Please don’t apologise for the slow videos, sometimes they are the best.
    With love from Wales.

    What an amazing Day. Ivar has grown up so quickly. So wonderful to hear him talking, he has a huge vocalbary. He us very smart, talking, reading his books and understanding and telling the story. He is also learning to care for the animals, help preparing food for cooking and in general, the daily running of the home. He is so good with his routine. You are giving him such a wonderful childhood. I love hearing him talk and read and everything he does. He is even aware of building. Just wonderful. Many Blessings on you all

I loved it when he said fairytale end. And at the end when he asked you to hold his hand. He’s a very bright light and a beautiful child. This video really portrayed what a Day in the life of homesteader with a young child entails Bravo, bravo. Thank you!

I loved watching your everyday activities with Ivar. From bed to books (my kids want to read first thing in the early morning too). Making your fire. Cooking your food. Walking Ivar in the carriage. Sitting in the sun. Everything was so heartwarming. But MOST of all I love to hear Ivar speaking. Thank you for the subtitles. He's such a precocious little person! This was so well done and I'm sure a lot of work for you. Thank you so much for sharing.

There just aren't enough words to describe the beautiful way you live and parent. Your patience with your son and the way you encourage and teach him is so special. At one point when you were washing the dishes and Ivar said the milk disappeared, his words seemed to amaze you. The world needs more like you and your family.

Your love and kindness-gentleness- shows in your son’s actions and conversation. He is a gentle soul also. Good for you! Good for you.

    This was not slow, this was wonderful. I started watching in the morning, but every 15 to 20 minutes or so, I got distracted by life things, but because I watched this episode thoughout my day, it feels like I spent that entire day with you and it feels so good!
    It was wonderful, to spend so much time with you, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. It is SO great to see Ivar develop, the amount of words he has is huge already, and how he recited his day right before sleeping was awesome. You have one bright little son there. He seems to constantly want to help, and DO things, and I don't think he'll ever be lazy. He seems to enjoy being out and about, and if he could wash dishes, he would. ;-) Him recognizing the branch knot on the plank...now there's actual deep knowledge, in a two year old.
    What a wonderful video, and thank you for not only sharing it, but for the subtitles as well! It feels really nice to get the vibe of your language, while learning a word or two due to the translations. Absolutely awesome. And you Mathias, are a wonderful dad. I can't help but see the love you have for your son.

    I too loved this episode! Your son is very smart little boy, his speech is excellent for his age. It’s so nice seeing a man do dishes, plus babysit his child, feed the animals, etc. In my day, the dads went off to work and did nothing at home. Moms had to do all the chores you did today and more in many cases. The world is a better place with you and your family in it. Congratulations from an admirer living in the United States in the city with a very different life style. Fortunately I am retired with much less stress in my world.

    Thank you so much for this heart warming father and son video. Every day life with many chores, full of precious moments, a calm, tender, loving atmosphere. I‘d go to the movies for this one! It must have been a lot of work to set up the camera, watch all the footage, make subtitles and edit it to make it a full day. On top it is the cutest Swedish lesson ever!

    Ivar is very intelligent for only being 2 years old. This proves that you and your wife are excellent parents and teachers. This video was so outstanding that I just had to subscribe.

    Probably the most heart-warming video I have ever seen. Just a joy and a comfort. The stillness you offer Ivar even though he is never quite still anymore (!) is wonderful to behold. What a dear little fellow he is- and yes, kind, like his papa. 💓

    What a special blessing these videos are...a peek into a wonderful world of hard work, love and simple beautiful pleasures. What a magical place, the Swedish Forest. Calming and peaceful!!! I would stay with my Aunt and Uncle in Central Oregon in the summer time, for much of my childhood. Every once in a while during the winter for a week or so. We would help them shovel snow off the roofs of their outbuildings and home. Their nearest neighbor was a few miles away and we would talk to them on a CB. It was much like this, minus the sheep and chickens. These videos make me miss my wood stove, so much!!! Ivar's vocabulary is incredibly vast. Such an intelligent and sensitive little boy. His little voice is so sweet! I miss when my daughter was that young. So much work running around after them, but such a special time of awareness and fun. I love that you talk to him like a little adult. You are amazing parents and I applaud you both. I know sometimes you probably don't feel this way, but I assure you that you are doing a marvelous job in raising your sweet son. I love when they start talking and you start having conversations with them. I hope Tova had a wonderful time with her friends! Thank you for the videos!

    It is always so sweet to watch the day in the life of a child. You are great with him, so patient. He is a great talker and little helper. I loved watching the whole thing. I have a grandson the exact same age two days a week, staying over night, and this all is so familiar. I especially love laying with him at night when he likes to talk. I loved how your son recalled how he spent his whole day, bringing up each and every thing he did with you. So very sweet! (And yes, that cabin gets so dark, holding hands is perfect so he knows you are there! A very precious video, Tova will love watching it, too.

    I enjoyed the Day with Matthias, Ivar and the animals. So touched, by the gentle flow and the trust,in and with each other. I took notice, how contented Ivar is, very interactive and expressing his interest and his need in such an even paced way. To me; this is a sign that Ivar trusts he is heard and respected as a full participant/member of his family and, his world. His sensetivity, is so beautiful,,as is Matthias's. In this time; where so few fathers engage with their children I am absorbing Matthias's fathering as THE GIFT, to all viewers. BRAVO!!!

    When we saw the length of the video we thought “maybe we’ll break it into shorter portions” . Started watching and the time flew by! You are bringing so much joy to many people by sharing your life.
