I love Nam's son's relationship with your kids ❤
Your little girl looks so much like her father. She is really growing. Nam's son is such a good boy. He has so much patience with the boys.
Nam is such a blessing and her son is amazing too
Hi Lilly. Love watching you and your family. Stay safe from dengue. Ricky In Isaan(you tube) wife passed away a couple of months ago from Dengue fever. He has 2 twin baby girls. Lilly and anyone else who sees this pray for him and his twins. Anything will help.
Oh, how sad! 🙏🏼
Eu acompanho o Rick In Saan, muito triste que No Eid tenha falecido!
GOD BLESS and KEEP ALL
prayers sent to him & his family 🙏
Yes, I follow Rick and his mom was just visiting him from Australia. I feel sorry for him and the girls. Prayers for Rick, his babies and EID. Mossies carry so much disease! Please use bug repellant on all of you! xx
So grateful and feeling blissed just to see Narm's son accommadated by lily's family...he seems like a well disciplined young boy who helps around looking after the kids...big happy family there in Koh Samui.
Watching your videos relax me, they are so full of serenity, something that is missing in stressful Western lifestyle! Thanks for sharing your blessed moments with the world.
You are incredibly lucky that Nam's son, Xan nai wyn (?) , is such an exceptionally lovely boy!!! What a patient and sweet young man he is.
Luke is Getting so big!! Lylia is Walking and Leon is talking so well now!! Gosh, the kids are Growing so fast!!
Oh Lilly, the children are so darn cute. Leon singing Jingle Bells, Lila with the Elf, loving seeing them grow up! You and Wat, Nam such good parenting skills to produce and maintain all of these happy, healthy children.
Lilly you have such beautiful children! I really did look at each of them carefully. God had bless you so much. Wish I can see them when they crown up. Really think they going to be so, SO beautiful!!!!😊❤😊

Lilly, you warm my heart with the your families love, dancing together, you're
Taking such great videos and your editing is blossoming .
I am facing some painful illnesses, and your videos, are what I wait for. May you find Peace regarding your srtuggling around food.
Blessings to everyone
Lilly, I find that sour and fermented foods (sauerkraut, pickled things, anything sour) really help with sugar cravings. When I watch your videos, I pray that all four children (your three and Nam's son) in your household grow to be mighty men and women of God who stay close to Jesus all their days.
Love watching. I am here in Tasmania, on the shores of Bass Strait, 1 of the most dangerous stretches of water in the world. It's summer , 11 days from Christmas and its pouring down, grey and cool. What a contrast in seasons. Happy family Christmas. Be safe.
Watching from Tasmania as well!!
Happiest of birthdays to Ricardo! Sending blessings from the U.S.

Koh Samui has changed so much! We visited in 2006. The largest retail place was a Tesco. Half the island was covered in small forests, and there were only 3 or 4 really luxurious 5* hotels.
Happy birthday Ricardo, how sweet to bake a cake for a good friend! Sending lots of blessings 🙌🏻 !!!
Lily, your kids are so adorable and such a joy and blessing to watch in your videos! You and Wat are wonderful parents! Keep up the good work!❤🎉

Leon singing and Nam dancing 💃 ❤
There’s foods that help get rid of sugar cravings. I’ve had sugar cravings since I was very small. I know green beans get rid of the craving. I forgot what else helps. I had stopped awhile back eating unhealthy foods, and a lot of breads, etc…. The hot tea with acv, and honey helped a lot. Lemon water like you suggested helps as well.

Man, your editing and videography skills are becoming professional quality!!! Great job Lilly! 💜
I am a food controled diabetic So I have not had refined sugars in 30 years. Because everything you eat some portion turns to sugar in your system. I praise the Lord I don’t crave sugars. Because that would be hard. Praying for you Lily. Blessings 😊
Sing it Leon good job. Love watching your video with your family.

You made me laugh about that tile. For the whole house oh my. You cracked me up lilly.
The yellow of your walls is such a mellow and pretty backdrop for your blue print dress. I'm gona use that shade in my tiny cottage, once it's built.
Your videos are so relaxing to watch. Love, love you and your beautiful family
I always enjoy your videos so much! Thank you for allowing us into your world. It's beautiful! God Bless all of you!
🎉Happy Birthday Ricardo!🎉
It is so enjoyable to see all the cute kids grow especially Lila. I bet she is going to jump and run in no time.
Nam’s son is now a big part of your family. The children love and trust him. You have a wonderful extended family to add to your own family.
Papaya leaf water also great for dengue relief.
What a blessing you are to everyone around you.. a vessel from the Most High! God Bless!
Interessting about your sugar intake.
My ant was a nuse and she had a time when she would fill her pockets with sugar lumps to go to work. She had a stressful time. The dentist told her afterwards, no problems with your teeths, you must have needed it.
I have heard eating red cabbage can help.
In our church people leave out chocolate in spring time.
It could be that some people have been in contact with dengie fever but never noticed anything. This is also for people with covid and other viral infections. In the western world we have a lot of other viruses where some get very sick like ebstein bar and others have no problem.
Happy.. Happy.. lovely to see.Thank You.
Hi Lilly , Thank you for the truth in your video ive been praying God please let me see honesty in people . Love and Prayers for all of you God Bless 🙏🩵🕊️
❤ Beautiful Lilly you are a wonderful mother ❤ The love and full attention you give your children is the very best thing a mother can give ❤ They will always love and respect you for it ❤God bless your amazing family ❤
Hello Lilly, fresh fruit will help your sugar cravings as well! Lemon water and fresh fruit helped me stop cravings sugar over 20 years ago.
I very much enjoyed this video. You're all doing so well. Love your idea of writing a recipe book Lilly. Hip hip hooray
Im on whole food plant based program. For my sweet is organic dates with walnuts!
Great treat!!😎
15:58 wow that’s the first time I heard Luke speak Thai 🥳very cool 😎xx
He's brilliant! More water! Water with cucumber too.
Happy birthday Ricardo 🎂 🥳 🎉
Hello Lilly. I am watching this video again. It came on my screen. Let me truthfully say, I am not a scammer. To see you, Wat and your beautiful kids brings me so much joy. I am only hoping that Lyla holds my hand, when I am walking with you all in Fishermans Village.Another 3 more weeks, and I will be in beautiful Koh Samui
I will see you there Victor
Merry Christmas and New Year Lilly and Wat,Nam and the kids. Joyful New Year. 💜

I needed to see you joyfully and worshipping God in faith....Thank you...
I was addicted to diet coke, and that was the hardest thing to break, but I've been free of it for 10 years. When I was not doing refined sugar, I used to drink lemonade, so to deter that obsession, I ate limoted chunks of frozen pineapple. I couldn't eat much because it hurt my tongue to eat too much.
Fruit & yogurt and granola Is a nice healthy sweet treat, plus a drizzle of honey 🍯
So nice the weather has changed ! I love the beach too ! Family time is so much fun at the beach ! Creating alot of memories ! Love the healthy foods !!!
Hi Lily! My name is Anna and yesterday we met at Fisherman’s nightmarket. I also saw you outside your resturant today. I have watched you channel a bit from home (Sweden) Me and my husband have a condo at soi 6. We only had it since July -23 and it now the second time we are staying there. We have been to koh Samui many times before, and we love it here. So maby we will bump into each other some more times. Love Anna
Hi lily. Love and best wishes to you and your family. God bless.
Happy Birthday Ricardo 🎉🎉🎉. God sure gave you a beautiful day for your special day!!! Hope you had lots of fun!!! Lots of blessings, Becky from Oregon 🥳🎂🎁
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 precious ones.
At 16:01…it sounds like Luke is speaking Thai to Nam’s son, Sun Yat-Sen. This is the first time I’ve heard Luke speak another language besides English.
I'm sure he is. Even more now as Zonaiwin doesn't speak much (if any?) English.
You have such a beautiful family!! The cake looked delicious! I too, am staying away from desserts etc. Hard to do but I just feel better. God bless you and your family.
I like the elf n Lyla n Leons reactions
Hello Luke Leon Lyla n Sonwan Lilly ,Wat,Nam...much love God bless you all abundantly
Nahum is the best. Just love her
Lilly you have a beautiful family. Blessings from Colorado ❤️.
Hi family I hope things go better in the island specially Christmas came in soon I'm so happy Layla star walking and talking too I wish your family and friends the best love you guys❤❤❤❤
I stopped watching this channel for a few months and the kids grew up so fast. Leon finally talking. Luke looks like a teenager almost.
Hi Lily, i’ve always watching your videos ❤❤❤
Cali from Philippines ❤

Loved hearing little Luke's dream. Such a sweet boy. Hey, why don't u start making healthy sweet treats? With ur knack for cooking and all u could easily make outstanding healthy sweets. I always cringe when I see the children drinking cokes and eating sugar and junk. But, always enjoy seeing how much u all love good food. It is a joy to see that.
Lilly & Family❤
Hello !!
Merry Christmas from my family to yours✝️🙏❤️
Saw earlier today where they took a couple wedges of lemon peel and all, put it in a cup, add hot water to fill it up. Drink it and enjoy.
You are strong Lilly... God has got you...abd your beautiful family...I have same problem with sugar cravings around 4:30pm...I struggle too with food ..I have stopped drinking alcohol 3 years ago and now food is my struggle ...I do eat healthy as much as I can... chocolate is my weakness and it hits me around 4:30 pm... anyways keep praying....God bless everyone 🙏💞🌏
Your family is such a treat to watch ❤
I'm so glad you are cutting out sugar. Your gut and overall health will thank you. Maybe reach out for some dates to satisfy that sweet craving. Much love, light and JESUS's choicest blessings to you and your lovely family 💕
Leon as Captain America, so so cute!
Blessings lily… if you blend ginger and pineapple and you can even add celery it will take away cravings and is great for losing weight and digestion
Hi Lilly! So good to see you and your family. God's blessings for y'all on this day that our Lord Jesus was born ❤
I haven't had any soda for about 15 years. After a couple of years you'll taste the chemicals and not want soda anymore. Better to make your own carbonated soda with juice...
PS: I am also struggling with a terrible sugar addiction...It's always a challenged I know I use it as a way to sweeten my life since I have no partner.
I remember when my kids were little sometimes I wish they would stay little before you know it they’ve grown up and become grown adults
I’d found that sugars give a person an initial boost of zip but bring people into a low. Leaves you feeling draggy. I’m thankful that my body has developed an allergy to sugars. I have no cravings for sweets. The sugars burn my body so I have no desire for sweetened foods either.
