    Oh my word, you had me tearing up through the whole video! It made me remember back to when my son was 7 (he is now 51) and we were moving from the only house he ever knew to the country and he looked at me and asked, is my room coming with me?! Bless his heart. He was good just as long as all the things he loved were moving too. No wonder you haven’t been doing videos! Seeing your dog and children in that stream just made my heart sing. Wonderful new adventure and so many memories yet to be made! Yes we want to see the land, take us for a walk and the barn and the house! I’m just so happy for you all! !

    Oh my!! Young kids are the best! I can hear a sweet 7 year old (my oldest is 7) asking if their room will come too. Their innocence is a gift. Thank you so much for watching and I’m so glad that you enjoyed the video. I’ll definitely make a video of our property soon! Have a great weekend!

    Aliya, I cried through this video. 😢 you are an amazing women and mom. You will continue to make amazing memories no matter where your at. I also know your kids will love the times they get to go explore the land they will play so many games and they will have memories they will never be able to create if you were still in your old home. I can tell you I look up to you so much and more than you will ever know.

    Aliya, I loved your story! 😊 We closed on our house November 20th and there are so many similarities in our circumstances including a beloved stream running through the back of our property. We are in different life phases as I am a newer "Mimi" with 2 granddaughters who are 6 and 2 and a grandson due at the end of May. I'm subscribing and looking forward to watching your new life unfold. May God's greatest blessings rest upon you and your family ❤

    What an amazing story! I'm very happy for you! You came to my mind just the other day and I wondered what happened to you. Imagine my surprise when I saw this notification from you today! 😊 I totally understand the feeling of sadness in leaving a place that holds precious memories for you, but as you said, you can take those memories with you and make new ones. Congratulations!

    It’s been over 6 months now and I was flipping through pictures today from back then. As time has passed those memories hit the same as the memories from when the girls were babies. Just a longing for all the time. I didn’t think about the physical house at all. Thanks so much for watching! Have a great week!

    I am beyond excited for you!!!! I was so thrilled to see you had a video posted and then when I watched it I was hanging on your ever word. I can relate to so much you shared. I am a stream girl, acreage girl too. I was so happy I was able to find my place which is 4.5 acres. 40 is minding blowing. Again, I am so, so, so happy, excited for you and your family❣️ Pinch yourself and enjoy every second of it just like I see you are 🥰

I knew that from the beginning, and he's blessed us over & over, it would take a book to tell the story! lol but literally! Its been almost 5yrs, we've never looked back and we're so blessed and so happy! Moved from the country to the country in the mountains, its gorgeous😊 i love your story and i know of God is in it, if its a God thing.. then its gonna be right, not always easy, but always right!

    What a beautiful story of God’s faithfulness, and his love for individual people! He really is the giver of all good, both spiritual and physical. As far as the tears go, Real people with real emotions, appreciate such honesty and raw vulnerability. Excited to see what you were going to do with an already beautiful place

Good luck in the plans for your new home, it will be fun, and aren’t you lucky to get 40 acres and a creek running through it. Congratulations 🥳

    Hello Aliya, I am so happy to see you today! I have not reached out to you, but I check (often) to see if you have put out any new vlogs - thinking I've somehow been removed from your channel. Congratulations to you and your family! How exciting. Thank you for sharing. It's going to be so fun for you, and for us. Hard doesn't mean bad, and easy doesn't mean good. I love that!
