[@ronaldziehlke9720]

That's one thing that I'm glad I did over the years was teaching the kids just about everything I know. They're adults now and usually do a good job coming up with solutions for problems and are a bit of a rock star among their friends for their abilities and knowledge.

i agree totaly.. i taught my sons howto cook ,like my grand ma taught me..i` helped them set up a small pop up food stand at events and fairs..now they have there own catering business that works along hand in hand with mine and my wifes food truck and soon to restuarant

[@SandraVanLankvelt]

Way to go DAD teaching your kids so many things and especially logic. Most parents these days don't do that and I was lucky my dad taught me a lot of things about camping, fishing, chores and my other SEVEN siblings rarely participated. I still have fishing skills too that dad taught me and my husband said give me your pole and I will put the worm on it...I said NO I do my own thank you LOLOL His jaw dropped. DAD'S ARE GREAT TEACHERS for sure. God Bless you.

Same. It does feel amazing to raise self-sufficient critical thinkers capable of protecting and defending themselves and those around them. Kudos to you!

[@debyarger3084]

Melissa, I stood by my momma every summer and fall and canned up to 600 quarts of food every season. Our dad included us in projects. Baking bread and rolls were always a special treats. Thanks for bringing those special memories back!💚💛

[@patrickbolmeyer9515]

I taught my two children how to do preventative maintenance on their cars (oil changes, cabin and engine air filters, changing a tire, etc) and the importance of doing it when needed. Getting kids involved with these things are good life lessons. Be well!

Everyone has a "TO DO" list. Great that you are getting some things marked off. Your home is so pretty and you have done a great job.. The kids were so much smaller when you started, but now that they are getting bigger, it is a great time to start teaching them some skills. Those will come in handy when you start the garage and apartment build. I bet they will be very happy to get in and help. Everything you learn as a kid comes in handy in the future. My father insisted we learn how do do things and 70 years later I still rely on a lot of those skills. Stay warm!!! Spring will be here before you know along with yet another list and the mud!!! God bless all of you. Looking forward to your next video.. The bread is so good. I made it when you posted it before,, now need to make it again.

[@pamgriffith1937]

Your family makes Saturday mornings my favorite of all!! I only wish the videos lasted longer😔. You inspire us to be better humans, better parents, to live healthier and to chase our dreams. Starting a homestead and building your dream home seems like such an ominous task especially when u start with nothing but a dream. But you’ve shown us that anything is possible with hard work and a loving family. Each of you have made sacrifices to have your life now but the rewards outweigh the sacrifices by far. Thank you so very much for including us in this process and for allowing me the joy of knowing and loving your family dearly. Each of you are very dear to my heart and always in my prayers 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@Dawn-pe5to]

You guys should have no regrets when it comes to your family..you have done an amazing job of accomplishing this huge feat while prioritizing family time when at all feasible. I am sure that was not lost on your kids. As they get older and are able to participate more they can - you have so many more projects planned there will be opportunities that are commensurate with their age, ability and interests. They were there and witnessed the journey - sometimes they participated, but they were always aware. The loving spirit and the humor were constants, through pressure filled moments and the unavoidable stress that is intrinsic to such a huge undertaking ... lessons learned from witnessing this interaction are priceless. Pat yourselves on the back.

[@margaretportera3553]

Love how you are teaching your children not only academics but also life skills they will be able to use the rest of their lives!

[@MyBackyardScience]

We've always tried to involve the kids, but it's hard to include them in everything. However, I've never regretted any extra time that a project has taken by including them! Also, there have been many times that the kids have suggested great solutions to problems that we implemented successfully! 😀

[@rachelsanford9061]

You guys do an amazing job on making sure they are well rounded. Don’t be to hard on yourself Jeremy about not letting the kids help with the big house build. You can have them help out with the garage build, same concept just a smaller build that is not so much on a time crunch.

I absolutely LOVE that you include your kids in these projects sometimes... that you teach them with love and patience. Growing up, I tried so hard to help my Dad... but mostly I was on clean-up duty. I didn't graduate to actually driving a nail for years... and I gotta tell you, there was a resentment that built up inside from being infantalized for so long. My heart is warmed to know that there are better ways.

I made that bread too with honey love it !

[@ThePyramidone]

You can only do so much when you are teaching kids the "building trade". They were not ready for bigger stuff and the risk of injury (and government intervention for child endangerment) was greater. You followed your instincts and your family's abilities (or lack of them) to get the main project done, which was to get a house built. Now, some projects can be done but look at the pumphouse - the weather and some of the building completion aspects still are beyond the capabilities to involve the kids. But consider teaching them how to use smaller tools and involve them in indoor projects. Baking, cooking, canning, and preserving are always skills that should be taught. Don't forget to include them in feeding your livestock. You are doing that so - don't second guess what you "failed" to do, instead plan on how to safely include them in your next project.

[@terrikopke3496]

Love seeing Jeremy teaching all the children tile skills. These children will be thankful when they get older having the skills both of you are teaching them. Well done!

[@survivor4041]

wowza you are rocking the parenthood thing, I think you have done an amazing job in teaching your children, and watching you take the time to teach them the tiling in the pantry room was heart warming. I think that your children understand thru the big build that you were focused on getting the home done in a timely manner. I am in awe of your strength as a team, a family team.

Good morning everyone

[@tjeanvlogs9894]

The best thing my elders taught me was *how* to learn. Working with them to grow, preserve, and prepare food including cooking on a wood stove. Building, repair, remaking things was the norm, and I rebuilt a car engine in my teens. During college I designed and made two off grid homes. My elders taught me how to evaluate sources and how to find mentors. Learned fiber arts, such that I can make clothing from fiber from enthusiasts. Learned languages, by finding teachers and native speakers in the community. Learned biology and permaculture from a formal education setting, skills I now teach to others. The best part is I passed these skills on to my children using home based education which was illegal when I was school aged. From how I was taught, I learned how to set up adult tasks to work with me by setting the kids up for success in the tasks. That said, it takes time to do the task *and* teach it at the same time.

Yumm. I love homemade bread. It is something I make every week. I used to make it every friday. Lol I swear my brothers smelled it coming from the oven. They would drive 5 miles over to the house just as I was taking the first loaves out of the oven. One loaf would instantly be slathered with butter and devoured. I always make at least 14 loaves because they would take some home for the week and some went to Mom and Dad. The rest for our use. Now I only make 2 loaves for the week. My husband recently passed, my Dad has passed and one brother too. I now live 5 states away from Mom and one brother. My daughter makes bread for her family now too. I love the memories of all of us around a fresh loaf of bread and watching the ecstasy on their faces as they munch away. I saw that same look on the kids faces as they bit into the loaf. Making great memories.

[@marysmith861]

The 2 or 3 views of the Evening Sky were stunning. As for getting the kids more involved, I agree there were times when I wondered about that, but fortunately, they're still young and there are plenty more projects coming. These are skills they will forever be thankful you took the time to teach them. I know, my twins are now 40 and they've followed my trainings really well. They've also taught me a few things themselves. And that's what's great about it all. To see them now applying those lessons with their own kids and their friends.

I'm around a lot of younger Medical workers at this stage of my life that make bad choices for their life partner, many of them from broken homes, and most of them have no skills to repair their cars and their homes. By example you are teaching your kids to make good choices and showing them what is possible with the correct life partner equally yoked. The immense love you have for each other built the house and family. Definitely involve your kids, the house is 99%, life is slowing down a little teach them everything you have needed to get this far in your life.

Here is a suggestion to help you out when canning. After you empty a jar. Wash the jar and seal and flip the seal over and place it on the jar and hold it on with the ring. Your jars will be clean and already to use. All you have to do is heat the jar and fill. I do this all the time. It saves me hours in my canning. I have a strawberry jam recipe that is so simple that you want want to use any other. " Four cups of mashed berries to five cups sugar and two tablespoon lemon juice. Cook until thick and hen deform. Jar up and seal. Cool upside down completely them place in your freezer. This will keep for years. The jam will be ruby red and delicious. Hope you enjoy.

It really works. I use that technic everyday. Great that the kids helped, now you have your garage and apartment above for them to help with. It's so helpful to learn these things to have for help when your older. Have a great weekend.

I've been watching ever since you first started building your new home. That's when you happened across my facebook page. It wasn't the building that drew my attention. It was how the two of you worked together. The obvious love you had for each other. So I kept watching n eventually met your whole family n I was hooked!!❤ Your family, it's amazing, incredible, love, honesty, and belief in each other! I wanted more! So as time went on, I soon realized that what I was waiting for, craving was, a glimpse into everything I never had as a child, teenager, or an adult. The mighty love that you give each other n your children is as everyone can see giving them what they need to have their best childhood n grow into their unwavering most beautiful adulthood!! I could have only been so lucky to be in a family with so much love n grounding. The traditions n extended family. Just the selflessness of two beautiful parents who put their children first makes all the difference in the world! It's nice to see what can be achieved with love n putting one another first! Keep giving us those videos! We love to see ya all❤❤❤
