    Melissa, I am so glad you got a warning of harm to you from my country's UK viewers about pregnant sheep. - a lot of preparation for the coming winter months, the siding had to wait, other things come first. I posted this on your last video - Quote, “Jeremy, please wear a mask when cutting the siding” I read you are now. GOOD.
    Stay safe and love to you all from Mike. ❤

    You have come so far on your property. Self-sustainability is primary when you live so far from the nearest town. I give thanks to all the wild life that my husband harvests for our freezer, I always pray for them when the time comes and the same for our beef cow and pigs we raise and the 2 lamb we buy for harvest- God provides and is always good to us. Next year we may raise meat chickens, ducks and turkeys as well as egg layers of each. We should never take for granted our food sources and if we can raise our meat and vegetables and fruit (we started fruit trees last year also) on our very small plot of property, that’s what we will do. We always enjoy keeping up with your family!

Living outside of America for most of my life, first in Israel and now Denmark for the past 34 years, has given me an outsider's critical view of America, and all I can say is your channels have given me new hope for the future direction of the country of my birth. If more families took the time to give their children the necessary tools of good values, communication and hard work, we'd be in a better place. Well done!

    CONGRATULATIONS ON GETTING THE BUK! More meat to get your family through the winter. I look forward to more projects being completed by father and son. I had 2 brothers and I am the only girl, but I was a "Daddy's girl." I was the one that was always helping my Dad with all the projects, from building goat pens and hanging tires along the fence so the goats could butt them without getting hurt, to "helping" him with adding the bedroom and utility room to the house. I cherish and will never forget the conversations and dreams we shared during all those projects. Nor will I ever forget the skills he taught me. Even though both my parents are gone and I am now a great-grandma, I still cherish and hold those priceless memories close to my heart. I know your children will also, one day share their memories of cherished times they had with their children or just to reminisce with a smile, and a whisper in their mind, "Thanks Mom & Dad! I Love you all so much."

    Winter must come there soon, but it’s November and I have to remember that you live much farther north than I do so it’s probably best to think of different. You are near the Canadian border where I’m closer to the Gulf of Mexico, it still in the 70’s during the day, ( joy for me ). Everyone makes mistakes so don’t beat yourself up over it, NOBODY is perfect, you did catch it, so kudos for you. Take careof Momma, winters just around the corner.

    That sheep loves the dog! She comes around whenever he is. He was playing with the children and she came right over. It’s so cute to see!💕

    The large boxes from the siding when empty could be a cool crow's nest on the property or tree house.

    In the last couple of weeks I have been going back and following your activities 3 and 4 years ago. It's wonderful to have witnessed the kids growth in that time and to see the progress you've made in other areas. I was watching Jeremy riding on that little riding mower and was thinking, that thing would be good for a large yard in town but I think you need something larger for your place. Now I see him on that ZTR mower. It's just been good to go back and watch you as you learned to build by building. You said, as you were starting the house that Neveah would probably move into the tiny house but the attached garage/apartment is so much better. It's been a great ride for me and I can only imagine what a joy you and the whole Sousa family has had having had this wonderful life you have made for yourselves. You make this 82-year-old retired building contractor feel like I'm back in the trades. Thank you so much.

    Hi from England I was going say that last week about the sheep. I had a few on my land that were also pets. But had to get the farmer up the road to take them in while I was pregnant. It's quite eye opening when you're told this because growing up they were and still are one of my favourite farm animals.
