You are blessed that you have a roof over your head, food in your bellies and a safe place to raise your kids. Stop apologizing for "things out of place", it works for you. God Bless!

Thank you!

My step-grandma and grandpa lived in a 500 sq ft home with 7 kids. The kids played outside in the yard or over at their friends' houses so a large house wasn't necessary. I grew up in a 900 sq ft home and we didn't use our bedrooms half the time. We were normally all in the living room (with one of those wrap around sectionals, it worked) or outside playing.

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

I love that. It’s so true, back in the day homes were a lot smaller and people just did things together- :) we’re bringing that back

[@silmuffin86]

I grew up in a tiny apartment and hated it, I used to dream about having my own personal bedroom, even the tiniest one. I think American homes are way too big, as an Italian I find huge bedrooms and bathrooms are wasted space, and no one needs 2000+ sqf, but having a bit more space so that each kid can enjoy some occasional privacy and quiet time is necessary

[@patriciacorpe6228]

I raise our family of 5 in 900 square foot home as the children got bigger we did have a basement to turn into bedroom and family room, I was to have a big kitchen with very large eat in kitchen with a large table and hutch. I live their for 38 years and when hubby wanted to retired and move up in northern Michigan to had over 2 acre of land and house that was 1300 square with no stairs plus 3 outdoor buildings lol Now hubby is 80 and I am 78 we had to move the pace was too much work for us and my hubby has many health issues. So were back down state and rent apartment that has attach garage no step 1200 square been here 2 years, yes it sad we sold our home but were content no outside work and the winters can be hard so nice to drive in and out of the garage when unload food after shopping. Its now our life were back at the church we left many years ago and many of us are still alive and we keep busy and it's nice to have our grown children around us. Live gives us many different times to live different too. I always cook from heart and still do just don't can any more, but making bread I do do. I love my crock pot too.

[@lisapitts9518]

Beautiful home. I can imagine the Love in our sweet home.

[@courtwoodyard]

I love thissss!! We are a family of 6 as well and currently living in a 1000sqft home. Seeing your video makes me feel more normal and in a weird way more at peace. There is so much pressure to have the biggest home with each kid having their own room. In this market it's just not happening for us right now. Thanks for sharing! I love your home! It is beautiful!!

[@courtwoodyard]

Also, subscribed!! ❤

[@pfrtmarilyn]

You have a beautiful home, there’s LIFE in your home, it’s a functioning and active household. Don’t worry about things not being organized or eye pleasing. Thank you for inviting us into your home. I’ve raised 5 sons, so I get it. God bless your family and your household. ♥️

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you so much!

[@alexalovesyahweh]

God is so good! I’ve been so stressed finding out I’m pregnant with twins (so grateful but also stressed) and I live in 1300 sq ft. We will be a family of 7. I feel like there’s so much I can do with what I have now and am blessed by this video so thank you for sharing!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Congratulations! How exciting

[@Michelle88elle]

Your home is absolutely gorgeous. I love what you've made the space into. It oozes personality and homey vibes and love. I love seeing realistic houses that look lived in, a good sense. Not sterile or perfectly coordinated but still beautiful. You have a lovely home and family. Very glad I stumbled across your video!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you so much! It is homey and we LIVE here haha bring back real homes, am I right?

[@terrymeechan2998]

I pray the Lord bless you for sharing your faith in sharing your home and family!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you

[@ChantalA489]

Lots of families all around the world live in homes this size or smaller. You definitely don't need a lot of space or things. The house seems very organized!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you!

[@simplecountryliving7555]

A very nice home. Great loving family with a mom at home.

[@cindychesna829]

Your home is amazing

[@Indiamoon7]

Such a lovely home, very refreshing to see people living in a REAL & authentic space, made for memories with loved ones. I’ve always preferred smaller homes & while we are only a family of two with two small dogs we’ve always lived tiny, moving into our tiny house on wheels of 250sqft in Oct! Thanks for sharing! 😊

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Yay! RV living? Or tiny home on wheels? Excited for your fam!

[@Indiamoon7]

@@TheSanderbrinkFam it’s an RV certified tiny home we are so thrilled!

[@TheDiligentMama]

Just found your channel 💕 you’ve made your home so cozy! Jesus is the best gift we can give our children - way more than having a big home & bunch material things. Love it!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Totally agree! Jesus > everything

[@UlyGooly]

This is wonderful. So relatable 😂

[@Suebearish]

What a perfect space

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you 🙏🏽

[@TheVeryImportantLady]

My home is so similar to yours! Ours is only around 600sq ft (maybe) but same layout. This is the first time I am seeing something relatable on YT. Can't wait to see more videos!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

That’s so cool!

[@umaisv1352]

You have a lovely home. Very cozy🌺

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you! 😊

[@ginnyberg9271]

I’m so glad you are showing lives in when I was homeschooling all I had was magazines and do I thought I was to be june clever, homeschool, organized and perfect and I only got three hours of sleep each night. I wish I would have been wise and had a few dirty dishes and not perfect. Good job mom. Proud of you

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Yes! I’ve struggled in the past with perfection- the lord has totally set me free from that

[@DarlingKaya]

We are 5 in 650 square feet, 1 larger bedroom 3 kids share and 1 small that only fits our bed and a wardrobe tightly. Its insane to put ourself in dept just for a bigger house but i love this video seeing others in the same situation. Im always looking for storage yet to not clutter and be able to breath at home

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Exactly! Thanks for joining us

[@ThisMamasFaith]

When we had 4 children we lived in an RV! It was one of the best times of our lives. Now we have 6 children and live in 5,000sq ft. Our house is my absolute dream home but WOW it takes 3 days to clean and by the time you’re done you have to start over 😂

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Yes! RV life :) We have lived in bigger as well-- But this has been our fave place to dwell.

[@Suebearish]

When we went from living in an RV back to a house, I wanted to go back

[@lucillebarnes7327]

So cozy!❤

[@karenburgess3560]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ThisMamasFaith]

I’d love to see more of the outside! You all did a wonderful job designing! I love the bookshelf and the ceilings

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you! The outside of our "home" is not remodeled, but I will definitely share more about the property :)

[@trekkie-cat]

Gorgeous doggie!! 🐶💖🐶💖

[@ThisMamasFaith]

I love that I spotted so many of the things we have. Berkley, essential oils, loaf of bread on the counter, math u see blocks. ❤

[@sarahlangham635]

And I thought my 900 sq ft was tight with my hubs and I and 1 little dog 😂. I love that you make the most of your space!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Haha thank you!

[@crystaldon4995]

Looks perfect for 2 or 3 but 6 I would go crazy. I understand if your poor and have to live this way though. Can't imagine four kids in one bedroom. Sad. Think of when they are older...

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

It’s not for everyone :)

[@crystaldon4995]

@@TheSanderbrinkFam I'm glad you are content!!!

[@tamaraliscia3408]

I think this house is lovely and looks very comfortable. The kids interviewed don't look or sound "sad", nor does "Mom". The house isn't crowded with "stuff" and looks larger than it is because of the floor plan and furnishings. While it isn't "sad" to live in a small house to this family, it is "sad" to you, for some reason. And, you might feel "sad" if you lived in a small house; this family is not. In terms of history, it's a relatively new idea that people "should" have large houses and every child must have their own room or they're deprived of something. For centuries families lived in small spaces. They shared rooms and usually beds. They used an outhouse or, an indoor bathroom. They lived and worked and had children who lived in similar ways. We all have our own opinions of what is important to us, what brings value to our lives, and we all have "must have" and "don't need". Living in a small house is not for everyone, nor is living in a large house. We each get to make our own decisions of where to live and what type of housing we want ... small or large house, condo, apartment, or RV, as it should be, without criticism.

Love your home family is everything

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

It really is!

[@momof2momof2]

We are a family of 3 living in 1400 sq ft and love the freedom of the space. We each have our own bedrooms. We entertain frequently. To each their own.

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Tiny living isn’t for everyone- but in our circumstances it’s been such a blessing.

[@InspiredHomemaking]

Love this. New here ❤. We are also a family of 6 in a small space. Soaking in all the ideas❤😊

[@lynnescaddan8919]

Thankyou for sharing I love your kitchen ~ dinning area. That pantry is FANTASTIC. What a lovely view you've got. Do you use ladders for the high bunk ?

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

They just climb from the one to the other :)

[@thelittlehomeaustralia]

This is so good! Thankyou for sharing your 'real' home too it's really helpful and normalising! We've lived in our self built tiny home (22ft / 7m long) and oour 3 year old has only known this one. Your kids room looks spacious haha! We're trying for baby #2 and have recently put on a deck extention (insulated) which has given us so much additional space, it feels like a totally new house. We're also going to be homeschooling so I love how you've kept things here pretty minimal, it's supportive to see that it can look like that too without an entire 'school' room

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Yes! You most definitely don’t have to have a schoolroom to do homeschool. The good old kitchen table works well

[@angelab4518]

Thanks for sharing, it looks very nice and cozy. I don't see a problem if you have much outdoor space. We used to have 807sft / 2 bedrooms until our 5th child was over 1.5 yrs. But it was a city apartment 3rd floor, no balcony no garden and hubby working at home...that was not ideal though we loved our home. Now with 6 kids 1227sft, 4 bedrooms, 624sft terrace, still in the city. You can make everything work, but im still dreaming of a place where kids have lots of space to freely play outside. Our big plus is all kinds of schools, doctors, shopping, big library etc within 15min or less walking distance. (We're in Germany and homeschooling is prohibited here.)

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Having outside space is such a blessing! Being in walking distance to library’s and public spaces would be great as well. We all just have to have contentment where we are at the moment. 🙏🏽❤️

[@DarlingKaya]

i love that thr chairs fit so tightly under the table. I have trouble with that at my home. The chairs always stick out from the table legs. Where is this table and chairs from?

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

IKEA

[@betberes442]

I would love to live like this! Maybe one day 🥰 beautiful home

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thank you!

Yes!

[@everydayminimal]

New follower! Loved the tour! Those kitchen counters are SO gorgeous!!! wow!! Great use of vertical space with the shelving too!! So key for a smaller space! I also homeschool too! Look forward to more!

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

Thanks so much! 😊 vertical space is necessary in a tiny home. Nice to meet another homeschool mama

[@PraiseGod1611]

This is massive space compare to uk 🇬🇧 housing . No pantry’s and storage spaces either .

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

We are very grateful

[@emilyreutter8864]

So glad I stumbled across this. We live in a 980 sq ft home and I am trying to use our space well. Your home is loved! Do you mind sharing the type of table you use in your kitchen area?

[@TheSanderbrinkFam]

We got it at IKEA 8 years ago! They no longer sell it, but we absolutely love it.

[@emilyreutter8864]

Ah, thank you for sharing!

[@tawnyschlienz9063]

750 sq ft. is not a tiny home. When are people going to realize that. Just stop. I grew up in a 750 sq ft home and it's not a tiny either. 400 sq ft. And smaller is a tiny. Stop it.

[@Jesusmysweetheart]

Because of the modern American mindset that more and bigger is better, you now have a new generation of people that see small homes as tiny homes and consider a home about 1500sq ft plus to be a average size home. I’ve seen people with homes a little over 1000sq ft call it tiny. My brother who lives in a 2000+sq ft home thinks my home is tiny in comparison. I live in a modest 840sq ft home. Of course 700 or 800 sq ft is not tiny. It’s just that today’s society and the mindset of today’s people have changed drastically in comparison to 20 plus years ago.
