A sandbox, or a motorbike 🤣🤣 I LOVE his negotiating skills!
My thoughts!!😂😂😂
Make a beach of sand on the creek bed
Gideon really negotiated that well! Wasn’t getting much traction on a sandbox until he tossed a motorbike in the deal. Then sandbox was no problem LOL
Rebecca's Natural Instincts stay by her child while he is wounded-, is just so wonderful.. what a great mom!!!
Seeing Jonah working on his bike was priceless! The light in his eyes is back. ❤️
"I gotta fix something." Classic Jonah.
@@kenchappell2054 I agree ~ Classic Jonah!!! ❤
The parents are old school. Our family loves watching you teach the children. to be independent. Responsible, and honorable. Very rare in this modern world.
I am so proud of Josiah Lily and Gideon they have really stepped in to help out with the chores more to help with Jonahs chores good job kids
Yes Great kids!!!
Give Jonah lots of water. Then he will have to walk-to pee.😂 😂
They can just set an alarm every hour for him to get up and move, same for water.
When I had leg surgery as a child, they couldn't slow me down. Went thru 3 casts. Many months of being in casts. Refused to yield...! Have walked with a limp for 60 years. I can walk...!
@@teresamariner4238 I was instructed to exercise, especially my good left leg. Did such daily. My right leg has never been as strong as the left. But it's strong enough. Fight until you die...
Thats not a joke cause it could happen to anyone
He is strong..he will get through it! He will be back on that ride in no time...wait until he learns how to do wheelchair wheelies
JOnah looking good and yes, he must get back on the bike to overcome any fear he might have, but getting a pro to give them some lessons is an excellent idea
And to help the parents get over their fear! I already heard them putting their fear on a sandbox or motorcycle for the youngest. It could have beena bull or cow that ran him over, kicked him or gored him just as easily. This is a lesson in managing fear. I wish I could send this to them. I know it's horrible when they crash or get hurt. My fear stopped my kids from getting to love horses like me because I had one kick my 3 year old in the face. Now they don't even care to try and pursue them because I held them away, they are all teenagers now.
@@solsalia I had a horse kick me when I was about 15. My entire leg went numb up into my pelvis, I could feel the numbness creep up my leg. A kick from a horse is something to be cautious about.
@@gowest5145 Yes it is!!! My son was only 3. It was a weanling who delivered a fast blow. Thankfully he is alive. Any activity is dangerous but then when would we live? Fear cannot be the controller. Caution and experience can help for safety
Surprised the hospital didn't set up physical therapy for Jonah. At least a PT to come to the house. Y'all have a trainer come to you, hire a PT for your son.Very important to not lose mobility and range of motion.
Don't know if Gideon is the smartest kid on the block with his bargaining skills or just the cutest either way I see a sandbox on the way. You're going to be putting up a 6' tall electric fence to keep the cats and dogs out of it. So good to see a wrench in Jonah's hand, turned that bored out of his mind face into the biggest smile that could fit on his face
What he said was very smart. It's called anchor pricing, very smart
It's like asking for either a cat or a horse... you'll be getting a cat
I always like the tent idea. Get a tent fill it with sand and zip it up to keep the cats out. Plus it keeps the kids in the shade.
You will need to keep Gideon's sand box covered or the cats will use it as a littler box
I've thought of getting one for my kiddos as well and think back to the time we played in The sand and probably how many of those nasty cats used it as a litter box and we didn't know 🤣🤮. I've been designing covers so they can't so that lol
I have a large uncovered sandbox in my yard for my childcare business. Cats never not once have used it for litter. I ve always had dogs and their scent in the yard may be what keeps them away. It might be different with their cats though since they are used to their dogs scent.
Jonah, Please do your therapy and Do Not Overdue until your hip has healed. 🙏🏻❣️🤗😇👍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I have to say I really like the ambient sounds instead of music over the B roll. Something about the sounds of the farm are relaxing while stuck in the office working.
The hip is awful sore and burns from the inside out after an operation. What a lovely family.
His body is healing, don't push him too hard!
You would be surprised how much he needs to move to heal better. I've been amazed at how fast through all of my dad's surgerys they had this old man moving right after surgery!! Hips shoulders and knees all have been done on him! the more he moves, rests in between the faster and better he will heal. I imaging they have a lot of healing herbs and foods to help :)
@@solsalia I agree! When I had major surgery, it hurt more laying in the hospital bed. It was better when I got up and walked around a little. I think people are worried that Jonah's moving so fast, but he will let pain be his limit and he's not putting weight on that leg. He's doing really well!💙
He has to becareful when he goes fast not to fall though.
Had leg surgeries when I was a child. I pushed harder than the doctors approved. Excelled in athletics but could never get approval for football or basketball. Couldn't serve. Have walked with a limp for 60 years. My nick is Limpski
You need to move. Rest is important yes but so is moving. Its a balance. Being stationary too long will result in muscle loss. I agree he shouldn't be doing marathons right now but the way he was practically running seems like that short walk was too easy for him hahahah either that or he just really wanted to watch his show
As someone who has had double knee replacement and spinal fusion ALONG with depression, getting outside in light was the single biggest helpful motivator for me. It enlivens and invigorates us for the rest of the day. Jonah may be suffering from lack of light blues. It's a real thing and I am a different person on cloudy days and winter is tough for me. Getting OUTSIDE always makes me feel better. Remember what you love doing and get as close to that (safely) as possible. 🙏 for you.
When Jonah gets his stitches out....take him in that spring fed creek.
Jonah is moving so wonderfully..
Glad to see him getting outside in the sun.. helps with fighting off the blahs.
Busy farm and the kids are really stepping up to the plate.. Great Family..😊🙏🏼
I'm so glad to see Jonah doing better! Your parents are right about setting goals. It helps the time pass with a purpose. I know it feels like life is on pause and cabin fever can drive you crazy. The truth is, in our lifetime we don't get many opportunities like this. Life is busy. You know it. This time you have as you heal can be a great gift if you use it wisely. Is there something that you have been wanting to learn to do? A craft or skill you've been thinking about learning? This time of stillness doesn't happen very often in life. Anyway, just saying. Many prayers for you all. Glad you are on the mend.
Excellent ideas! Keeping his hands busy, too. A puzzle, woodworking, knitting. Some of the best knitters I know are men! He could knit hats and scarves for his family. How cool would that be? He's so smart and good with his hands!
I'm old. I remember a football player, Rosie Greer (sp?) Who used to do needlepoint to help himself think and relax. He did beautiful work!!
Knitting originated from the sea fairing men who used knitting to keep their hands nimble in the off season so they could mend as well as make new nets for their fishing boats. That's where the fair Isle sweaters came from.
You can get me a sandbox or a motorbike - Oh Lord please give me strength. I can just about see your boys all grown up on their dirt bikes, racing off to move stock, fences, etc... It's a good thing, praying they keep their wits about them where safety is concerned. I always had my heart in my throat when my hubby took off on his Harley Davidson, but he wasn't an idiot on that thing. Military taught him when to go for it and when to listen to the signs around him.
The most important part is learning the environment, the way the land falls, how it changes in the wet etc and to monitor your speed and movements by those environmental changes.
In any case it's wonderful to see Jonah up and about and Josiah and Lily are doing a spectacular job! I love their kindness, they're so helpful and so willing to do the extra work for the family even though it looks difficult at times, they're growing from the inside and that's beautiful to witness. Xx
Arnica tabs & Arnica Cream are amazing for pain. Calendula cream or Manuka Honey are amazing for healing wounds.
So nice to see joy on Jonah's face. Jonah you are a blessed boy.
Typical Josiah conversation:
Anyone, "This, that and the other, ending with a question".
Josiah, "Good."
Every time I see Jonah, I tear up. He is such a great, humble, and caring young man. I am a mother, and I so wish the best for him. He does not ask for much, and although no family is perfect, your teachings show through your children. Jonah, get well soon!!!!!!!!!🐮🐷🐑🐈⬛🐈
he's gotta move that leg as much as possible. cast and not moving is old thinking move it as much as possible. prevent atrophy
I’m glad Jonah is doing so well. I just had a total hip replacement and my doctor told me to walk 50 steps every hour. I know I get stiff if I don’t do this.
Jonah is doing so well and he is so cheerful. The whole family is so supportive. Love you all. 💖
If you want Jonah to get well fast and Henry to grow like a weed, feed them more meat and eggs and butter. God love you all.
Glad all is well and the sparkle is back in his eyes❤🤗👍
I'm surprised you didn't connect the deck to the porch it doesn't look to be that far away. Get better Soon Jonah !
You're a rockstar!
Ligaments and tendons are inflamed and take time to heal. All of those get stretched with a dis-location and they pull against the injured joint. Also the SI-joint is in that area and it gets dis-placed from the injured ligaments pulling. Hopefully he will get a good physical therapist to keep things aligned until everything is strong enough to hold in place.
Sandbox vs. Motor bike... Hmmm let's go with a sandbox and other people can get him trucks and construction trucks to play in the box. ;)
OHH MY GOODNESS JONAH'S EYES DON'T LOOK LIKE HE REALLY DOESN'T FEEL GOOD..I CAN USUALLY CAN TELL BY PEOPLE EYE'S!! POOR GUY HAS BEEN THROUGH SOOO MUCH. PRAYERS FOR HIM.
word soup.
IMPRESSED WITH FAMILY ❤️ working together . Entire family co-operation and genuine kindness to each other.❤️
Had leg surgeries when a child. It was painful. Was drugged the first time they split my cast. Thought they were going to cut my leg off. Best wishes, God speed....
Jonah... get up and moves as much as possible.... you will heal so much faster!!!
Would like to hear about the root cellar.
This is Phil Jr. Glad he is moving around and feeling better. Prayers work
Pray everyday for Jonah and hope he's doing better daily. He's got such awesome parents. Love and hugs to y'all from Terre Haute Indiana!
"Heck yeah, I'm gonna jump again" Love it!!
You can see a difference between Jonah in the start of the video and after he got to tinker with the dirt bike lol. Momma knows her son and what he needed as a pick me up.
Baby girl correcting "drinked" to drunk. Really made me laugh! You accepted the correction and went on! LOL!
I loved how quiet this video was. The ambient sounds of the farm are so idyllic.
So happy that Jonah is recovering and is on the road to healing. My daughter just suffered a severe concussion and is currently going thru concussive therapy. More or less she uses her abilities or she may lose them, meaning she is up and walking around every day, including stairs, as well as eye exercises to help with vision. Best wishes for your family for this fall and Jonah's healing.
It's so good to see you helping Jonah to set goals for recovery, especially drinking water, getting up every hour, and getting out in the sunshine. I'm curious if he gets seen by a physical therapist while he's recuperating, and when do they think he can be walking again (weight bearing) on his injured leg? Sending prayers for his recovery to continue to go well, and blessings on the whole family! ❤
LOVE that Justin got corrected ♥♥ teaching the parent correct grammar. Good parenting and I would be proud of myself and my child.x
DEEP BLUE IS THE BOMB! I have horrible chronic pain and it's the only thing that cuts it. I'll never be without it.
I love the smell of deep blue...it also healed a hematoma on my leg from being kicked by a donkey lol
You're doing great Jonah, I'm so proud of you! Your brother's and sister have sure stepped up and helped too. 👏💙
So good to see Jonah smiling again! Greetings from Boston
Mr Brown sure glad has grown hes looking more like Jonah sure glad Jonahs doing good tell him dont over do it hugs to all great family love watching
Meat Eater was hunting nilgai. Indian antelope imported by the King Ranch to replace cattle. Awesome eating, hard hunting if they're actually wild.
It's so good to see Jonah moving around again all the best to your family
Jonah sure looks like his Mama ❤🙏🕊💕💐🇨🇦
What a terrific video. Jonah is doing so well with a great attitude accepting “goals” best way to get him going and healed
He looks so pleased to be working on the bike. Way to go mom and dad.
Thank you for the share
So glad to see Jonah smile again.
If you get him some forearm crutches he’ll be able to walk outside on the uneven ground much much easier than with a walker or regular straight arm pit crutches. I think they would get him off the walker more quickly and allow him to walk around a lot easier.
I recently had double knee replacement surgery, and I couldn’t use crutches in the garden because of the uneven ground, but forearm crutches let me get out there and do what I love to do a whole lot sooner.
Jonah looks just like the Beautiful one, so handsome. Heal fast and well, God Bless. 🥰🇨🇱
So glad to see the farm is still in motion. Even more, the blessings for Jonah at work! He's ambulating nicely! 😊👏🙏
We have four kids and at Christmas we got a Coleman go-cart. On Christmas day my husband rolled the go cart and the roll bar rolled over his elbow and dislocated it.
Because of the first accident the go cart had to go back and get fixed. We got it back and when my 13-year-old went to start it the throttle got stuck and took off with him, running into the minivan and throwing him, causing a concussion. LOL
Sooooo…..😂
My son had quite a few accidents with a go cart. Ran it into the house once and he hit a barn silo foundation, flew into the air and landed inside the silo foundation. He survived!!!
Blessings to all!
Absolutely love watching your kids on the homestead they are so independent and focused on the lifestyle, Johna is such a trooper 💙 his smile makes my heart sing, keep up the good work young man , sending healing prayers every morning and night to you, you all stay safe, loving hugs from Washington England 🇬🇧 xxx
Great healing goals! Don't forget the water, Jonah! It's important to stay hydrated, really helps the body to heal. I love to see how all of the children get involved in chores - except Henry of course, but it won't be long before he gets there, too.
I so love watching your post while I am canning. 7 quarts and 7 pints of bone broth out of one lamb tonight. So glad baby boy is doing better!
As much as you guys use your deck, be sure the contractor puts stiffeners between the floor joists.
THANK YOU!! So happy to hear you utter the word lessons.
Such a wonderful update! Continuously praying for y’all ❤
So happy to see that Jonah is home and recovering so well. I cried with you as I watched your previous videos. My son was in a dirt bike accident when he was 15 (he's 25 now) and broke his collar bone in four places. He had to have a rod and four pins put in. The Deep Blue stick that Rebecca is using is wonderful. Drinking lots of water and regularly getting up for a bit is also very good. You guys are doing great. Heartwarming to watch Josiah, Lily and Gideon really step up with helping out with the chores. You have such a wonderful family.
Love y'all's family. Thank you so much for sharing your lives with us. Appreciate your family SO much. Thank you.
poor Jonah!
he seems a little depressed which I imagine is totally necessary after what he's been through
and I love Mr Brown's optimistic outlook about keeping Winnie out of the raised beds "it probably will. and it might stop the cats"
😆 🤣 😂 😹
I’m glad Jonah is doing so well. I just had a total hip replacement and my doctor told me to walk 50 steps every hour. He could use the walker. I know I get stiff if I don’t do this.
Hip replacement with new parts rehab is more than likely different than dislocation ligament/ tendon damage to original leg parts. They need to get instruction of dos and don'ts form the doctors and not be their own physical therapists. JGiles
@@tipgiles5432 yes that’s true. I should have put in my comment to ask his doctor. But in today’s video his dad told him to get up and move and I know it’s a lot different. Well wishes for a Jonah.
Never miss any of your videos! Love them 😍
Jonah is working on the bike !!! Rebecca the nose pin is looking great 👌🏽👌🏽‼️Keep it on
Love that this site is so close to 1 million subscribers! Keep sharing their story everyday.
Jonah has such a beautiful smile....
I think Gideon is growing into a great cow herder…🤗
Sending lots of love and healing prayers for your boy your family is so loving
Deep blue is awesome! I love it! Love watching your family.
We keep sending love and light to y’all
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Get better Jonah!! And to help the parents get over their fear! I already heard them putting their fear on the youngest about a sandbox or motorcycle for the youngest. It could have been a bull or cow that ran him over, kicked him or gored him just as easily. Woyld they stop raising them? This is a lesson in managing fear. I wish I could send this to them. I know it's horrible when they crash or get hurt. My fear stopped my kids from getting to love horses like me because I had one kick my 3 year old in the face. Now they don't even care to try and pursue them because I held them away, they are all teenagers now. Dotn give into fear
Quick maths tip, if you have a gap when connecting the two ends of your fence, multiply the width of that gap by 2 and that's the distance from one of the corners of the fence you need to start to go diagonal.
So, for a 5ft gap, take go 10ft away from the corner and start going diagonally. You'll have plenty of margin of error.
Keep that water and sunshine and exercise going poppa! Good job
I see you found the drip pan for the griddle... AWESOME!!! get well soon Jonah!
Love this type of blog, more natural go of the flow events of the day, not so much commentary. Keep it coming. Great job Jonah Keep it up> Just like falling off a horse. You heal and get back on!
A relative of mine is a physician who works in a hospital system. He told me that the medical personnel sometimes refer to motorcycles as "donorcycles". That's because they see so many serious accidents associated with motorcycles.
I’m disabled and one thing that helps me when my healths bad is doing stuff I like. What does Jonah like to do? A lot of active stuff can be made so it can be done sitting down. I like agility dog training so I learn how to train my dog using videos and do what I learn once I’m better
Dirt bike 🚴 culture. The struggle is real. I’m with Mom, go kart!!🤣🤣But, once you’ve been on a dirt bike 🚴, there’s nothing like it. I’ll be praying for you all. So good to see Jonah feeling better.
The Dooley's Of Michigan Have a BLESSED Day glad your home Jonah
I love your family! 💗💗💗warms my heart!
I put my chickens in my potatoes last year loved it they dug them up with out recking them
Yes seeing Jonah smile just made my day he has always been a real go getter to get things done . When is he going to be able to put weight on that hip he is going to have to build the muscle back up in that leg . It is so wonderful seeing everyone come together to get the chores Jonah did done by the other kids .
Prayer and Love from Oklahoma
I love that your a hands on dad! My husband was with our son also! ❤
Justin, sir you are such an inspiration
I have not watched for a while. I was scrolling through my list of subscriptions and when I saw 'Justin Rhoades' I felt that I had to catch up. I was so surprised to see the videos of Jonah's injury. I'm glad things are getting better for him. Tell him some guy from Nebraska is wishing him (and your family) well! Take care and God bless.
The safety equipment is very important to dirt bikes. My husband and my son both road the bikes in the months that they could and winter the bikes where in the garage with both working on them. This was a huge bonding for both of them and they learned how to work on the small
Engines also. My son was 10
When this started and he is now 30 and still loves the bikes and working on them.
I love deep blue. I prefer the cream over the stick but that stuff is amazing.
Prayers Jonah 🙏
Jonah is looking stronger. Great team.
If you get a sand box, get some landscape shading to peg down over it when Morin use. It will keep the cats out. When we bought our last house there was a little putting green in the back yard with a sand trap. All the neighbor kids spent hours and hours in it. They were really good to cover it at the end of the day.
Small tent with door that closes tightly
We used to put fencing on the ground in our large dog pen to prevent our dogs from digging out while still letting grass through. They were only in the pen overnight and it was at least 200 square feet but they would dig out if we didn't stop them lol.
