I am the granddaughter of an amazing woman who raised me from toddlerhood to teen years...She saved me, and I am crying because I'm so moved by what this loving, selfless woman is doing for her granddaughters. I truly believe there's a special place on the other side for family members who step in to raise children who wouldve been otherwise neglected. This gift couldn't possibly have gone to a more worthy individual. ❤
Trust me as a Grandmother raising her Granddaughter since she was nine days old,she's now about to be five you were her biggest blessing!You love your children,but when you become a Grandma it's a love even deeper.Theres a love and bond there for you that's unexplainable!
@@MaryKelly-ji8ve I lost her 21 years ago on December 19th...the anniversary of the worst day of my life. My grandma Joanne was my best friend, biggest fan, and the only person on earth who I have ever trusted would never hurt me. Your words were really needed by me today, thank you.
I am not sure anyone can watch this without crying. It’s clear she has a heart of gold. What an amazing and deserving person. Thank you Secret Santa! ❤
It's not what any grandma would do. It's what a loving grandparent would do. This one was a great Secret Santa. And there's so much more to come. I love to cry happy tears it's refreshing for my soul.
2:06 "There's nothing special about me", says the worlds nicest lady while wearing her pink sweater with a cat's face on it. 😅👏 I guarantee her grandkids know how special she is. They're very fortunate to have her as a wonderful role-model. 💪❤️🖖🙏
Okay, I need a part two on this one!! I would absolutely love to see her as she shows the kids the car. That's something I would love to see. As I watched this it's like I could see the weight immediately lifted off of her shoulders....... like physically. She took a deep breath and actually stood up a little bit straighter. That sense of being able to finally take a breath because you know everything's going to be okay. What a precious soul she is and I'm so thankful for secret Santa and for Nate and all of the team. Thank you so much for all that you do
Ok. This one made me cry. I'm a 70 year old widow helping raise a grandchild. He's 21 in a few days. God Bless you Secret Santa and God has already blessed this lovely lady.
Oh, she is the loveliest Grandmama!! Thank you Secret Santa, for spreading so much beautiful love and help to those who need it !! I'm in Australia, but I'm hooked on this program every year!
Gave me chills watching this one. What a wonderful grandmother! Many years ago I was raising 4 children (only one was mine, one was my nephew and two others were a friends children that she couldn't take care of), my disabled sister and cousin lived with me as well and our vehicle caught fire. I had to walk everywhere when I couldn't find a ride. I would dig out the old baby stroller and would walk the 5 miles or so to the closest grocery store and use the stroller to bring back groceries when I couldn't find a ride. I was finally able to purchase a vehicle at a police auction for a mere $500. The car was worth about $3500. One of my neighbors paid for the registration and a year's worth of liability insurance. It was a true blessing! God bless her and her granddaughter's!
That was such a good one. She was so overwhelmed and trembling but so appreciative. I only wish someone could record her grandkids' reactions when they saw it and found out and sent that in. Thank you, Secret Santa, and EIN!
This very special woman got a well-deserved gift from a loving person, delivered by other kind and giving people. Don't you want to just hug them all? Secret Santa stories remind me that among our friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc. are many very kind and generous people, often in ways no one else ever sees.
Wow! What a lovely grandmother! I loved it when she says "my girls" about the granddaughters! They will be so happy and proud of her. She is a lovely example of love, stability, and caring for children is all about. Plus, her kitty sweatshirt shows how much fun she must be, too! peace
I think God just has. He always see our good deeds like her taking her grandchildren and giving them a loving home grandma's. Oh yes and secret Santa's.
"It's what any grandmother would do" she says - sadly thats not so in the world today but she is an awesome example to her 2 granddaughters and I hope they have a lovely thanksgiving together xx
Was super sweet how she was calling her grandkids my kids. She sees them as her own kids now. Loved how she was saying how happy they will be about having a car now.
I have watched these stories all week and by far, this is my fav. She sooooo appreciated and needed this gift. Everybody needs a Gma like her. Blessings.
My best friend is raising 2 out of 5 grandbabies instead of being able to retire their ages are 3 & 13 both are autistic. This makes her an absolute angel 🥰 she struggles at times but she’s doing it. This beautiful lady has stepped up in her retirement and taken on young kids so this also makes her an incredible Nana 🥰🥰
How can you not cry watching these - I’m crying for her and her grand daughters - what a blessing- God is great and secret Santa is great . So many giving people in this world . ❤
I'm always touched by how many Secret Santa gift recipients insist they are nothing special or that others deserve help more. I think that's a true sign of a giving heart. Bless this Grandma!
She is one beautiful lady. She's beautiful inside & out. I'm so glad she's no longer going to have to walk in the cold any longer. Living on a fixed income is hard enough without the extra added costs associated with raising 2 kids. I would love to hug her if I could. If more people were like her the world would be a better place ❤ Thank you, Secret Santa 🎅 🧑🎄 We love you from all over the world 🌎 ❤️🍎🗽🇺🇸
The relationship between grandparents and grandkids is usually very strong, there's a special bond between them and I understand why the granny here is committed to raising her grandkids. God bless her to see them grow and be independent.
Thank you Secret Santa! I cried along with her!! ❤️ Most of all these bits brings tears to my eyes, But this one tears were streaming!! It is a wonderful world!! 🎶🎵
Absolutely Beautiful……….. I Absolutely Love The Way You Guys And Secret Santa Helps These Beautiful People That Deserve The Best…….THANK YOU ALL FROM AUSTRALIA 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
My wife and I adopted our two grandchildren and have been since they were under a year old(there 10 months apart) and now are 15 and 16 y/o. Both are the miracle of our lives and doing so well in school. This one got to me.
I look forward to these Secret Santa videos all year. It just sucks that i have to wait till the end of a terrible year to finally get my spirits up... It always feels good to see these videos! Thank You Secret Santa and East Idaho News!
From a grandmother named Mary, who also raised a grandchild, God bless you, Mary.
This is One of Most Emotional Secret Santa Surprises Ever!!!!!! Not Too Much Ppl Think About Grandparents Anymore. 😔
not in the Usa anyway.

Sadly, this is true
So many grandparents raising grandkids 😭❤️
Grandmother works more than most adults that i know. remarkable bless her
I have one elder left in my life. I am in my mid fifties and an do not want to be the elder. You are 1000% correct. Bless her

This made me cry! I just lost my last surviving grandparent and I miss her! such a beautiful video though 😭

She kept bringing up her girls even though they are not there you can tell she wanted to share that moment with her loved ones. She is amazing!
I really like this lady.
Bless her heart! 70 years, raising her granddaughters, ones only seven... I can't imagine. Hope she'll be around for as long as THOSE GIRLS NEED HER!!
I am the granddaughter of an amazing woman who raised me from toddlerhood to teen years...She saved me, and I am crying because I'm so moved by what this loving, selfless woman is doing for her granddaughters.

My grandma helped raise me too.

Her grandchildren are blessed to have her
WHAT A SWEETHEART
When she said it’s what any grandmother would do…I almost lost it. Such a sweet woman.
I am not sure anyone can watch this without crying. It’s clear she has a heart of gold. What an amazing and deserving person. Thank you Secret Santa! ❤
I’m an old man and my eyes were leaking
Yep, same here and Nathan had the right words to tell her, so emotional ❤🥲🙏
Not me , anyway. I wish her safe travels from the other side of earth. NZ.
@@barba5537 That’s ok, and it is kind of you to wish her well. 💕
I watched this twice and cried both times. I’m so happy for her.
Grandma’s are the True Heroes in our Lives. 👍🙏
From one grandma who raised 2 grandsons to you, you are God's gift to your grandchildren. God bless you forever
What an amazing woman and how everything every thought was about “her girls” God bless the secret santa for helping fix what got “broken first”
It's not what any grandma would do. It's what a loving grandparent would do. This one was a great Secret Santa. And there's so much more to come. I love to cry happy tears it's refreshing for my soul.
Right there with you! 🥂😂👍🏼💝
What a wonderful woman. So dignified, strong willed and full of love.

Wow!!! "..sometimes things need to be broken before they are fixed " priceless wisdom, what a sincere heartfelt humbling reaction ❤

Tough and tender. Great job grandma!
Worthy recipient! So so glad you gave her a car. I can only imagine how relieved she is after receiving both gifts…. Beautiful story

Grandparents are the absolute best! My grandparents raised me and my sisters and cousins. The best people ever
We love you secret Santa❤
I also am 70 and this touched me a great deal. I can't imagine having to do all she does. Such a beautiful attitude. Blessings on her.
Yes strong lady 😮😢💖😘
I love this!! Beautiful story and well deserved💗
We ALL LOVE YOU, Meri. You are a deeply wonderful person!!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤
That was such a good one. She was so overwhelmed and trembling but so appreciative. I only wish someone could record her grandkids' reactions when they saw it and found out and sent that in.
Thank you, Secret Santa, and EIN!
I was thinking the same thing
Granny truly deserves the car, gifts.
Thank you Secret Santa, Thank you East Idaho News....Thank you for being a special person Mary.

Awww Nate! "There's a lot special about you"! What a nice thing to say to someone.
My favorite time of day is midnight when it's Secret Santa season!

Thanks once more to the Secret Santa and all involved. Merry Christmas!
Thank you Secret Santa for helping this precious family.
God bless ya'll!
Thank you, Secret Santa for providing her and those girls a car!!!❤❤❤
Meri is so deserving of this. She is a very special lady! ❤
The fact that she said there was nothing special about her shows how special she really is.
You just want to hug her. Granny’s are the absolute best. Miss mine!♥️😭
Same here. 😭
Couldn't have gone to a more deserving grandma ❤️ God bless you Secret Santa
What a wonderful and deserving lady! Thank you Nate and thank you Secret Santa!
THANK you for this from Hamburg, Germany! I LOVE when good things happen to good people ! Please never stop doing this !
How deserving! So appreciative of the giving spirit of the Secret Santa! May we all make a difference in the lives around us!
I am so happy for her!!❤
I'm not crying, you're crying. 😭♥
My only comment this time is... WOW!!
Loving her cute and cheerful cat sweatshirt. 😸
As someone who was raised by their great-grandmother, this was especially moving for me. Grandparents her second to none what an amazing lady!

' There's nothing special about me '
Yes !I There IS !!
Mary is precious. So humble. The way her hand shook when she saw the key almost made me cry.
How can you not cry watching these - I’m crying for her and her grand daughters - what a blessing- God is great and secret Santa is great . So many giving people in this world . ❤
You are Really AMAZING...God bless you always...Vicky

Nice work East Idaho News!
You make my holiday season each year
The relationship between grandparents and grandkids is usually very strong, there's a special bond between them and I understand why the granny here is committed to raising her grandkids. God bless her to see them grow and be independent.
The old joke says that grandparents have a special bond with grandchildren because they are united against a common enemy.
A very special grandmother.
Wonderful. Thank you secret santa for the relief and joy you give to people. Love from Cape Town.
“ I have to tell you a funny story” what an inspiration she is❤
She has a big ❤. She only thinks to her granddaughters. Beautiful soul.
I’m a senior raising a grandchild. Bless this grandma for stepping up and thank you so much for helping her! ❤️
What a humble and loving woman! All she could talk about was 'her girls' being so excited. Oh my! She IS somebody special! ❤❤❤
Just a beautiful story. Mary is special. The kind of Grandmother everyone deserves.
Thank you Secret Santa! I cried along with her!! ❤️ Most of all these bits brings tears to my eyes, But this one tears were streaming!! It is a wonderful world!! 🎶🎵
God bless her..She deserves this 🙏❤️

Pretty in pink and tickled pink. Wonderful gift for such a deserving lady. Thank you secret santa from here in the UK x
My wife and I adopted our two grandchildren and have been since they were under a year old(there 10 months apart) and now are 15 and 16 y/o. Both are the miracle of our lives and doing so well in school. This one got to me.
The people most deserving, are usually the ones that think they are least deserving. I like it when Secret Santa proves them wrong.
Agreed!!! 😭
I don't usually cry when watching these, but this one got me 😢😢❤
I look forward to these Secret Santa videos all year. It just sucks that i have to wait till the end of a terrible year to finally get my spirits up... It always feels good to see these videos! Thank You Secret Santa and East Idaho News!
God Bless you Mary! We love you.
