Sweet Becky - I’ve recently been reading through comments on your videos. I feel as if I need to apologize for the cruel comments that have been made (especially after cooking @ your Mom’s, when you had no water). I’ll never be able to understand how people become so evil, but just be sure you know that they are the ones w/problems - NOT YOU. I can’t imagine how lonely it must be, living (in their heads) so perfectly, and not like those of us who are human. I’m so happy to see what wonderful, beautiful, people the majority of your followers are. They are such a joy. YOU are such a joy. Be blessed. 😊

I just recently found your channel I must admit I’m very impressed. I am retired. The mother of 5, bonus mom of three, and grandma to 18. Juggling all of what you’ve accomplished is simply an amazing feat. Your energy is incredible. You are blessed to have a great support group of friend and family. I just watched your carrot and onion video. A few days ago I watched your new home tour. Oh my gosh you have done incredible things. When I grow up, I want to be just lije you, lol.

Becky, your brain is a masterpiece.
I have ADHD and my husband says I "bumblebee" around, doing little bits of chores here and there, and forget what I'm doing, switch gears part way, etc....(it's gotten worse as I age :P)
Getting ONE THING completely done is a challenge!!!
Having you here to inspire me to do a project/recipe/garden things REALLY HELPS me complete tasks!
How you manage a husband, pets, a homestead, a BABY, and a whole ass COMPANY this well is mind-blowing to me.
You are truly incredible.
All of this while ALSO teaching us SOO MANY THINGS with compassion and kindness, a brilliant smile, and somehow still look BEAUTIFUL and well put-together?!?!?!?!!?!
Girl.
You are superhuman to me and probably the majority of your viewers.
Thank you for being here for us!
It's a lot of work to do this and we appreciate and value you in all your glory <3

Becky is a dynamo! She gets more done in one day than I do in a week! Goals 😊

[jenniferr]

I appreciate you being open about the supportive community you have around you. A young woman in my life comments 'why can't i get it all done? Becky does!'. It was so valuable to discuss with her the value of a community (especially of you don't have supportive or local family) and the ability to ask for help.

Becky, I watch all your videos so I know that you are "beating" yourself up about the freezer. Look, take it from an old woman, it too shall pass! You have so many successes in your life, a great husband, a healthy baby, your parents are active and healthy, and you are a wonderful person. You are a caring wife and mother. Oh boy, could I write a book about my failures! HOWEVER, I have a great husband, relatively good health and I love my family, home and friends! I am a success as far as I am concerned!

I want to thank you for showing us the reality of working from home. You are an inspiration for me and many people who watch your videos. Moving from teaching, to working in home healthcare during COVID, to retirement has been a huge change for me. I discovered the first year in retirement that I was exhausted and did absolutely NOTHING. I am now moving into finding a new challenge and watching you create a home for you and your family while working from home has inspired me. THANK YOU for all you do.

Can I just say, I am in awe of your ability to film multiple vlogs in a single day. I’ve watched more than once how you switch back and forth in the same day for separate vlogs. I honestly don’t know how you are able to multi task that so well. Because you are also often cooking multiple recipes keeping your house clean and caring for a baby….amazing!!! But for someone who turns out such lengthy and frequent content for us to enjoy, you definitely earn every ounce of success coming your way.

[michaelawest]

I just came to say, my whole family loves your channel! My girls (who are 5 and almost 4) play acre homestead in their mud kitchen outside or in the play kitchen when the weather doesn’t allow them to play outside! Plus they usually ask to watch acre homestead instead of cartoons ❤

[vanessalumbra]

You are a great role model for new homemakers and homesteaders. Multi tasking is key! I'm retired and live in a second floor apt, but I still have a container garden for salad veggies. I grow scallions, romas, leaf lettuce, peppers, radishes, and cucumbers. I even have 3 huge grow bags with potato plants that always seem to do well. No matter how old or where you live, grow some wholesome food! I've been with your channel a long time. From the beginning, I knew you'd be successful. Your garden at your new home is amazing! Don't forget to take care of yourself and your needs too. Admiration from Vermont.

Becky, it would make life a whole lot easier for you to put out just two videos a week. We will still be here ready to enjoy what you teach. Knowing that a big load would be taken off your shoulders would give us all so much joy! Have a great day and God bless.

[princessalwayseva]

Hi Becky.👋 I think this video was amazing. It’s good for people to see the REAL side. So many people don’t realize just how much work one would put into their videos. It’s not magic. Some people need patience and also to realize that everyone on YouTube have lives and it takes a special person to be able to juggle all and have such a WONDERFUL channel. Tfs. Have a great Sunday.❤️🤗

[emmierutledge]

You are amazing!!! Your videos are real. We learn from them. You teach us it's ok, nobody is perfect and just allow yourself the grace. Thank you for showing us that doing our best is enough. Please continue to show the real. It helps more than you know, especially when everyone is trying to be perfect all of the time.

[tmyuylom]

Laurie from MI here, always learning so much from you… especially appreciating that you persevere and keep your yourself planning. Your projects, cleaning and gardening process/systems keep moving even while your heart hurts and mind manages and handles the unexpected freezer situation. You are remarkable. God Bless You!

[lizhernandez]

I was so crushed when I saw your videos that mentioned your freezer being left open. Especially because I knew you had spent a whole day doing a huge freezer meal cooking day with us and had put so much time and effort into the meals you had in there. I've been watching you about two years now and must say that your channel is one of my favorites. You and your whole family have become part of my daily life so much so that I feel like I'm an actual friend sitting in your kitchen with you. The only thing missing is that I can't smell or taste your kitchen through the screen 😉

[tinabina]

Loved this Becky! I would also LOVE to see a behind the scenes of shooting a video. You have become the QUEEN of entrances and exits. I've noticed a lot of when you are leaving the kitchen (or any room) and entering the seed room, you show your exit and then it cuts to you entering with a tray of something and I imagine that behind the scenes that entails you filming your exit, going back for the camera and walking it to the other room and setting it up and them walking back into the room like it is all fluid. I would LOVE TO SEE how those things happen in real time and what goes into all of those moments we don't see. Maybe you could consider that one day.
Thanks for sharing as always.

[paliejeanne]

Becky, it is so important to show how life at home really is. Thank you for keeping it authentic!!!! I wished I lived love folding laundry.

[Mrsbryan]

Did anyone else’s heart sink when she pulled out THE freezer meal? 😢 much love to you, Becky! ❤

[SunshineCountryChickens]

Youre an amaxzing woman Becky! Thanks for sharing your life with us!

[karenhuffman]

Becky I just wanted to
Let you know how you have inspired me. My granddaughter will be starting her first year of nursing school next month. She has a really full load, so after watching all your freezer meals I have decided to cook up a bunch of meals that she can thaw and cook. She will just have to figure out a side to go with whatever it is. So I just wanted to thank you for your great videos and advice. I’m so thankful that I can help lighten her load just a little bit.
Keep being you…I really appreciate all you do on your videos. ❤
