Seriously, Amanda's videos remind me of visiting my family's farms decades ago, and they bring me such peace and happiness. I wish she didn't live so far from me, because I would totally volunteer to help out there, like I did as a kid, so long ago. It's like she lives in a petting zoo! But I know, there's a lot of hard work involved. Slinging hay and such is hard work. This person is just... she's someone kids can look up to. That says a lot these days, with so much hate in our world.
