Single father of 7 gets emotional during Secret Santa Surprise (Credit: East Idaho News Channel). Edit: He was working part-time as Seminary Teacher at that time (1 of 3 part-time jobs), and was able to change to full-time at the beginning of the next year which he said "Really Helped Out A Lot".

The fact they wanted to be anonymous..anonymous.. straight from the heart & not straight to benefit on social media. ❤❤❤ Thank you "Secret Santa" for blessing this Dad. ❤❤❤❤
I live in East Idaho, all we know is its a man whos lived in the area and wants to give back ❤ he gives away 1,000,000$ every holiday season. Its the best way to wake up when its cold and icky out, watching Nate and everyone pass things out
I ABSOLUTELY watch East Idaho News hosted by Nate, sorry I forgot his last name. He's one of the news anchors there in Idaho. Nate has the great privilege to host, give away, needed gifts to incredible people in his community from "Secret Santa" every year!! It is a tear filled event, for me, each year. The recipients, who are chosen, are so worthy of the needed gifts "Secret Santa" lovingly helps them with!!! Nate is THE perfect host, along with his crew, to be the hands, feet, faces of "Secret Santa". They are all great workers, and fantastic huggers!!! They are ALL blessed by this event each Christmas!!! ✝️🙏🕊️ 🇺🇸 ❤️🤍💙 ☃️🎄🌟
@christineribone9351 They did NOT make them equally important! In fact I applaud them for thanking God! They were NOT in the same sentence! Isn't it time to be KIND? It doesn't take any more energy or time. God bless you & may He soften your heart and words.✝️🙏🏻🫶🏼
I don't think we realize or talk about enough...how women bodies are destroyed after having one kid...let alone 7. It changes us!! This is so sad!!! Ughhh I hope the kids can have healthy lives with their mom gone!!! God bless them all.
Oh dear Lord, when a man cries it tears my souls out! Whether it’s happy or sad tears….still it floors me! To whomever the secret Santa was, what fantastic people! Such a huge heart! Them wanting to be anonymous says so much about the type person or people they are! Just thank you! And I’m so incredibly sorry that you lost your wife and those precious kids lost their Mom. I can relate. I lost my husband five years ago to brain cancer. We were married 39 years. I had him a long time but I was in it for life. Advice: make sure you allow yourself to grieve. Some people don’t. Trust me it will keep showing up somehow someway. Go to faith based grief counseling at a church. I went twice. Helping others through their grief will help you. A lot. God bless you and those kids.
I'm in tears and I'm an infantry vet of the Afghan war. There's to much pain in the world nowadays. So nice to see some genuine love towards one another🥹
He was really grateful, and I think his tears were tears of gratitude and of major relief, knowing the proverbial "cookie jar" was no longer completely empty. He could breathe easier, knowing he had enough money to get food and necessities for at least a few more weeks.❤
Sometimes it happens, they could’ve had multiple kids at once or maybe there were issues with the form of birth control. Maybe they wanted seven children. Just cause it hasn’t happened to you or me doesn’t mean it’s impossible. They were doing fine until his wife passed away suddenly. That’s not always something a young and seemingly healthy couple plan for or expect.
I became a single father of two almost ten years ago under very similar circumstances. It took everything I had to keep the family ship afloat. But, to be in the same situation with SEVEN kids is beyond me. He is a very strong man!
God bless you and your kids. It may be hard some days but you all have eachother. You're amazing and you deserve all the blessings God can give. I miss my dad so much, he too raised me and my brother as a single dad. He gave us a beautiful life and worked very hard. He's my hero. And you most definitely is the hero your kids need. Stay blessed.
Today's economy plus 7 kids! I can't imagine how difficult it must be! God bless this man in the video, and may God bless anyone who is facing similar hardships. 🙏❤️🙏
Omg!! This is beautiful.. my sister’s gardener recently died suddenly from a severe case of pneumonia. His loss is greatly felt by the six children he left behind, ages 3 -17. Juanito was the breadwinner. Apart from their devastating loss this dear family was left penniless. My sister and those who employed his services have gathered together to provide for them during this most difficult time. God provides.❤
My mother has had a wonderful gardener who goes above and beyond to keep her beautiful garden going she has him in her will as well as paying him well. ❤ she worked hard her whole life and she’s that in him too!
Now the oldest being 17 might have to step up and fill their father's shoes. Younger kids have done likewise. I remember reading about a 12 year old taking on such responsibilities as best as he was able to. Historical facts.
In truly exceptional circumstances (like this), yes, but overly emotional men are no good to anyone. A man's job is a protector and provider. No matter how much something hurts, men must put their family first and show strength. The man here has what it takes. Men can cry all they want in private and alone. (This isn't what the left calls "toxic masculinity." This is good old solid family values that the west needs to get back to asap)
Yes, truly grateful... This messed me up. 😢😢 My son went to parochial school . He was 10 years old and his teacher was Miss Denise and she was pregnant and just the most amazing amazing human being ever. She had five sons. And she was pregnant hoping for a daughter. And I want you to know this Denise her husband and her entire family because I worked for her father we're freaking amazing people full of love kindness Joy you name it. She passed away having her baby boy. To make the story short there were over a thousand people at her funeral. My son now is 42 years old and every time he comes into town he goes and visits her grave along with my parents. I see her son in church with the family her husband he never remarried. Bet he raised some beautiful amazing babies, all men now. And her husband was so in love with her and he became both mom and dad to those boys. And they are amazing and I need to go because I can't quit crying
I lost my wife last 3 weeks ago. Now I'm a single father of a 5 year old daughter and a 17 year old son. I barely had enough money after rent and bills to buy each of them $50 worth of presents. But God is good. A week before Christmas, random strangers would come knocking on my door with wrapped presents before I could ask their name and say thank you, they were gone. ❤❤❤
My Momma passed away unexpectedly on December 15th and we created a Gofundme to help pay for her service, moving expenses and lawyer and nobody is sharing it. Break's my heart.
@@AlaskanAngelzSadly I think so many families are experiencing similar that they just can't afford to help. I lost my Brother mid-October and had to pay for his funeral etc, despite not being able to afford to, it's hard but you do what you have to for your loved ones.
wish I could give him a hug I don't think Id ever survive my wife passing and me having the 3 kids my wife and kids are my entire being without them I have no reason to live obviously I'd need to for the kids but god that would be hard living
Awe bless his heart and his 7 babies!!! Amen.🙏🏻🙏🏻 Let me know if you need anything at all, so will do my best to get your babies help more….. God bless and Amen 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

If your god was able to bless people and show goodness, then why the hell did he allow the mohter of those children to die so young! How could an omnipotent benevolent all powerful being allow such cruelty!
He's strong. Right after the love of my life died I couldn't do ANYTHING. It hit me so hard I just couldn't believe it. I just talked to her right before and she was laughing. That always gets me. God took everything so I decided to the worst person I can possibly be.
@@RUTHLESSambition5 I have no reason to doubt your story, but it's nothing to do with any imaginary god - life can just truly suck beyond imagination sometimes. Rather than turning to anger, how about trying to be the person that the love of your life would want you to be - that would be a good start!
@@ouiouipiggy4390 sounds easy in principle but harder in reality. She was a true SAINT! Never drank,partied or did drugs. Volunteered at the humane society and still got taken. The anger is the only thing that gets me out of bed. I want to make people feel what I feel. I should be the only person walking around with a broken heart
Died suddenly people are dropping left and right and the medical industry says they don't know why it is and the media says anybody who talks about it too much is crazy. The died suddenly documentary something everyone must watch a bit terrifying and nerve-wracking but it's necessary for every person to watch this film.
He probably hasn't even really grieved thoroughly. My mom in law was like that I never saw her cry one time after losing her husband of 50+ yrs . Yrs later we talked about it & she told me she felt she had to be strong especially if front of her kids even though they are all grown and married because she wanted them to know she would be ok but when she was alone the tears would flow . She truly was the greatest woman I've ever known
@@rafb7165that's terrible to say God will guide him to someone if that's in his plan . Women aren't trash sir you just must be looking in the wrong places & the same goes for men
Huge hugs dad n kids! We love you! Theres going to be plenty of love and help to go around! God bless n protect you and your precious children! Tears! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Look at the bags under that mans eyes. Those are the eyes of a man who works himself to death for his family. May we all have that inside us. I hope the best for him.
This news channel does this every year, the money is donated anonymously. This story was one of the few that truly made this grown ass dude, bawl his eyes out
What’s kinda neat is they have been doing this for 10 years and all the money donated is actually from just a single person. He/she is actually amazing. Probably donated upwards of 10 million dollars to people in Idaho all while being anonymous
@@joshpzueck6320All from 1 person, seriously? What an incredible individual, the fact they want to remain anonymous shows that it is truly given from the heart! I’m in the U.K. so haven’t seen this programme before, the last gift he gave him is that usually the kind of amount that can help him long term eg to pay off his mortgage?
Wow...this really did something to me. Humanity at its finest. I feel so bad that man loves his kids so much and he didn't just lose his best friend as a wife he knows they lost their best friend too. His soul just melted completely.
@albertfartstein?? Many of dudes in our age aren’t interested in reproduction. I’m a father of 2 myself and want as many as my wife will give me. Hats off to the man with 4 kids holding it down 💯💯💪 unless you’re a dad you will never understand.
@@mick893 the devil is the god of this world ✅ (John 12:31) The devil comes to kill steal and destroy ✅ All good things come from God (James 1:17) ✅ Whether you agree with me or not- You must repent or you will perish ✅
Actually I can think of someone more deserving... The homeless, the people who can't afford things, the mother who is single, living paycheck to paycheck, the men, the children, anyone who never had anything, but the man in the video had 7 kids a wife two vehicles and a house... Yet he's more deserving than anyone else? Give me a break
The pure gratitude coming from this man has me in tears. 😢 im so sorry for him and the children. He and his family sincerely deserves this wonderful gift. ❤😊
May this dear father of 7 beautiful children heal and be blessed every single day. Thank you Secret Santa you are truly a godsend to this lovely family and many other families. 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Bless the secret Santa who donated the gifts. It wont make up for his wife being missed but it will help take some of life’s pressures off this father. He and his children will feel blessed knowing someone cared enough to do this for them. Wonderfull to witness the gifts being received.
This is coming from a 14 year old, you truly are amazing and must put so much effort in every day just for somebody else’s pleasure in life, keep going on and your children will take over eventually in your role model
If you ever happen to come across someone like the person in the video just keep it short, including the last line only. The rest of the phrases in your comment are devoid of empathy considering he lost his wife and is still trying to do the best for their kids.
@@GALAXIE262 he's raising 7 kids and working 3 jobs i dont think many women did that throughout history. for one because 1 job used go be enough and second, in modern times when a woman gets in a situation like this she usually qualifies for a couple of aid programs. a man? good luck...
Ce n'est peut être pas plus dur . Car dans une grande famille ,les grands apprennent aux plus jeunes . Il y a une grande collaboration avec le parent unique . Sans pour autant leur voler leur jeunesse ,dans la mesure où ce qu'ils font est à leur portée . Et toute la famille est unie . Seuls les plus jeunes demandent beaucoup de temps à leur consacrer . Ainsi ,il n'y a pas de place à un enfant roi . Nous sommes tellement heureux les grandes familles !!!!
Here stands a man who still managed to put his coat and tie on after dressing and feeding seven kids and manages to smile. May God bless you and your family, sir. You deserve the Father of the Year award, 10 times over. It's hard to make a grown man cry, and your tears made me cry. You are the apitome of a father and what a father truly would endure for his children❤ RIP dear mother. 🙏
How can you believe in an all powerful, benevolent deity, when 7 kids and a husband lose their mother/ wife out of the blue? Either God has the power and he's just a cruel bastard, or he's all good, but can't do shit... Or none 😂😂
@@Maxibo234 this man in the video is a seminary teacher for the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints... You should be asking how did a man lose so much and still see God between the lines? What does he know that we don't? With that being said if you actually do want to know the answer to your question I'd love to chat, however if it's not of interest that's totally ok and respect your opinion regardless. Much love my friend.
I lost my wife of 30/years and we have nine children and have been been very painful since I lost her and you are in my prayers and my our LORD bless you and strength you our LORD GOD Almighty who strength us is GOOD all the time GOD Bless in the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Savior AMEN ❤❤
Deuteronomy 31:8-9 "The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged" Isaiah 41:10 "Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand" God is good
God bless EVERYONE that came together to help this BEAUTIFUL grieving family. So very heartwarming. Helps to restore your faith in humanity!! I hope this family had a WONDERFUL Christmas...as they deal with the loss of a wife, and a mother. 💜🙏💜🙏💜🙏💜
Death is tough man. It’s the hardest concept to understand. When I lost my girlfriend the pain was unbearable and I just didn’t understand why god would take such an amazing nice beautiful woman so early. Still don’t really. But giving up sounded so good for so long and I commend anybody that continues to push forward through pain. You deserve everything ❤
My brother passed suddenly 3 years ago from a brain/spin tumors we had no idea about. He had a beautiful paragraph on the back of his funeral pamphlet. The end of it said something along the lines of “he allows our pain to be so great to prove he takes the best first”. But it isn’t fair and the pain never goes away. I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine losing someone that you love in that capacity.
@@Stardust_0608 I’m sorry for ur loss brother. But he lives on through you and just by you continuing to talk about it will keep his name alive. Never forget! God made u strong for a reason
I like to think He is building an army of amazing people. He's gonna need them when He returns. Loss is difficult. Thoughts and prayers for all trying to live life and handle grief 🙏🏼
That is wonderful!! May God Bless their Secret Santa, and the family 😊❤🙏🏻👐✝️. Sorry for the loss of your wife, and for the children on the loss of their mother. May the Lord bless you and keep you. ❤
How sweet!! What a wonderful thing to do. This just goes to show it is just as nice to give as it is to receive. I am sure he can use "THIS" as well. I know these gifts are going to make their Christmas very special. The children will have so much fun shopping for those toys. It's so nice to see there are some giving, thoughtful folks out there. Seven children, "wow" he sure has his hands full, but with a group like that, I'm sure they all chip in to help. I know as I come from a family of nine. One Christmas was so wonderful for us kids as there was a Secret Santa that helped us on Christmas one year, and we really needed it too. It was the best Christmas "ever!! I'm 77 years old and I never forgot the wonderful gifts and Christmas thanks to the Secret Santa's out there, now and back then when I was a little girl of nine. Thank you so much to all those Secret Santa's out there. I wish him and his children all the best for the future, Cat
God bless Secret Santa! I believe he broke down because he learned that his community cared about him and his children. There is no better feeling than knowing somebody cares about you. ❤
@@_asantesana_squashbanana_His kids? "Their kids" would be the correct wording. They had them mutually. Bold of you to assume that was the cause when there's a million other things it could've been. Trying to turn something positive into a negative
@@_asantesana_squashbanana_ sure it is a lot of stress. But in our religious denomination, the decision to have that many kids is mutual. Obviously the wife has the final say. Some women just want a really big family. My wife and I both come from a family of 4 kids and we want to have 4-5 of our own. But if a health crisis happens to my wife before we have them then that we will stop. Ultimately my wife has the final say as to how many. Some couples just want to have more kids than most.

@@AlaskanAngelzSadly I think so many families are experiencing similar that they just can't afford to help. I lost my Brother mid-October and had to pay for his funeral etc, despite not being able to afford to, it's hard but you do what you have to for your loved ones.
Sweet daddy, public kindness❣️
I don't care how strong you think you are. He's gonna make you cry. Such a wonderfull dad!
He actually did 😭 respect.
Crying… 😭
Legit broke me
wish I could give him a hug I don't think Id ever survive my wife passing and me having the 3 kids my wife and kids are my entire being without them I have no reason to live obviously I'd need to for the kids but god that would be hard living
Beta!!!
Stand tall Dad. Keep moving forward.😢
You’ve got this, Dad!
You’re never alone.
He walks beside you.
Call out to Him.
Such a beautiful soul! This man deseves this ..tears of Joy! Secret Santa is wonderful! So sorry for your loss ! 🙏🏻Prayers for a better New Year! ❤❤🙏🏻
This is the type of father every family needs, so sad for the children who have lost their mother ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thankyou secret Santa 🎅
The beautiful man lost his wife… and is raising 7 children. God bless him and I wish and pray for him and his children. 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you and to Dad please stay strong for your kids.
God bless that secret santa for helping that father with 7 children !! What a blessing ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
We love Dakota! Been a family friend for over 15 years. He is one of the strongest fathers and greatest spiritual role models I have even known.
always wondered how this family was doing. Such polite kids, loved it. Good to know they are still going strong.
How are they now? Are they well?
Awe bless his heart and his 7 babies!!! Amen.🙏🏻🙏🏻 Let me know if you need anything at all, so will do my best to get your babies help more….. God bless and Amen 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Cool as hell to run across a few in the comments that know him personally.
I feel so bad. This man , has his hands full. Whoever the Secret Santa is...THANK YOU SO MUCH. GOD BLESS YOU!! 🎉❤
It won't be easy but hey octomom did it by herself, he can do it too! 😉
If your god was able to bless people and show goodness, then why the hell did he allow the mohter of those children to die so young! How could an omnipotent benevolent all powerful being allow such cruelty!
He's strong. Right after the love of my life died I couldn't do ANYTHING. It hit me so hard I just couldn't believe it. I just talked to her right before and she was laughing. That always gets me. God took everything so I decided to the worst person I can possibly be.
@@RUTHLESSambition5 I have no reason to doubt your story, but it's nothing to do with any imaginary god - life can just truly suck beyond imagination sometimes. Rather than turning to anger, how about trying to be the person that the love of your life would want you to be - that would be a good start!
@@ouiouipiggy4390 sounds easy in principle but harder in reality. She was a true SAINT! Never drank,partied or did drugs. Volunteered at the humane society and still got taken. The anger is the only thing that gets me out of bed. I want to make people feel what I feel. I should be the only person walking around with a broken heart
This is a man....he's trying his best. Anyone would cry if they got this after their partner died. He's raising her legacy..
My friend i cry right now, sorry God sorry and thank you My good God for everithing you give me, and take care .
He's raising "their" legacy
@BerkeliumSphere are you dense? No shit it's both their legacy, however currently shes the only dead one.
Died suddenly people are dropping left and right and the medical industry says they don't know why it is and the media says anybody who talks about it too much is crazy.
The died suddenly documentary something everyone must watch a bit terrifying and nerve-wracking but it's necessary for every person to watch this film.
@SCORPION89199 tf does that have to do woth what we're talking about 🤣🤣
It's very rare to see people giving to a male widow 😢❤
To console seven grieving children while you're grieving.😢
May God bless him with a good wife to do life with.
Bless him w a good wife? Wow. At this point dude will be better off staying single. What's out there for him at this point is leftover trash.
@rafb7165 That's super gross dude. Sorry you were hurt and now blame every woman.
He probably hasn't even really grieved thoroughly. My mom in law was like that I never saw her cry one time after losing her husband of 50+ yrs . Yrs later we talked about it & she told me she felt she had to be strong especially if front of her kids even though they are all grown and married because she wanted them to know she would be ok but when she was alone the tears would flow . She truly was the greatest woman I've ever known
@@rafb7165that's terrible to say God will guide him to someone if that's in his plan . Women aren't trash sir you just must be looking in the wrong places & the same goes for men
You religious people are funny
God bless them all!❤😊
You make me crrrrryyyy man ..keep stronger lives going on…..😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Huge hugs dad n kids! We love you! Theres going to be plenty of love and help to go around! God bless n protect you and your precious children! Tears!

Our heartfelt thank you to the Secret Santa who lightened the father’s burden. The family of eight deserves this! Thank you! 💕💕💕🙏🙏
Look at the bags under that mans eyes. Those are the eyes of a man who works himself to death for his family. May we all have that inside us. I hope the best for him.
Heartbreak & stress can really take a toll on our health, starts to age's us a little faster
He is only crying at night the other time 😢
This news channel does this every year, the money is donated anonymously. This story was one of the few that truly made this grown ass dude, bawl his eyes out
Another grown ass man here doing the same. Lost a loved one this past summer and first holiday without the matriarch of our family. This hit home
What’s kinda neat is they have been doing this for 10 years and all the money donated is actually from just a single person. He/she is actually amazing. Probably donated upwards of 10 million dollars to people in Idaho all while being anonymous
@@joshpzueck6320All from 1 person, seriously? What an incredible individual, the fact they want to remain anonymous shows that it is truly given from the heart! I’m in the U.K. so haven’t seen this programme before, the last gift he gave him is that usually the kind of amount that can help him long term eg to pay off his mortgage?
@@Lcblack1422 I'm so sorry to hear that man. I hope you're doing ok! it's easier said then done but, keep that chin up! People care!
@@Lcblack1422 For me it was my grandmother that passed. She was the glue that kept the family together!
Wow...this really did something to me. Humanity at its finest. I feel so bad that man loves his kids so much and he didn't just lose his best friend as a wife he knows they lost their best friend too. His soul just melted completely.
Oh now this makes me cry. God bless everyone involved. God help this family. Bless the secret Santa .
As a father of 4 this hit me hard. That is a strong man and amazing dad right there.

Thank u sir for being a father

Can’t think of a person more deserving.
Wait I don’t understand what was the 3rd gift?
@IvyBrubaker it was probably some more money, not for anything specific, but more for him to buy stuff.
Actually I can think of someone more deserving... The homeless, the people who can't afford things, the mother who is single, living paycheck to paycheck, the men, the children, anyone who never had anything, but the man in the video had 7 kids a wife two vehicles and a house... Yet he's more deserving than anyone else? Give me a break
@@duckygaming3536 how naive, please be more considerate in the future
@@duckygaming3536 What a nasty thing to say. How many of the homeless have to feed 7 kids and work multiple jobs?
Id like to think his wife is smiling and blessing him from above❤❤❤
More so it's God using people on the Earth to Bless him.
WOW!!!!
🎉😂❤
He's raising 7 kids by himself. Cannot imagine anyone more deserving. May God continue to bless you.
God please continue to bless this family. Amen

Double that prayer 🙏🏻 amen

Bless the secret Santa who donated the gifts. It wont make up for his wife being missed but it will help take some of life’s pressures off this father. He and his children will feel blessed knowing someone cared enough to do this for them. Wonderfull to witness the gifts being received.
I have six daughters with my wife, i would be lost without her. Cant imagine. I truly hope he finds happiness
This is coming from a 14 year old, you truly are amazing and must put so much effort in every day just for somebody else’s pleasure in life, keep going on and your children will take over eventually in your role model
Guess the toilet seat is always down. Just sayin' since we only had boys! 😂
GOD above my friend GOD above
If you ever happen to come across someone like the person in the video just keep it short, including the last line only. The rest of the phrases in your comment are devoid of empathy considering he lost his wife and is still trying to do the best for their kids.
so you'd just give up on your kids if your wife died? weak
Nothing hurts more than seeing a grown man cry.
YES! It gets me every time! 😢❤️
this is how you realise how strong we fucking have to be.
For real! I immediately get emotional and my eyes water
I don’t think it hurts, it’s beautiful.
In front of his kids, no less.❤️
I feel his heartache. I pray that God continue to provide for this family🙏🙏♥️❣️♥️🙏🙏
Bless everyone who loves their neighbors like their own.Praise the Lord.Amen
This is the type of people charities should be helping...what a guy raising those 7 children all alone.
yeah instead my goverment cares more about indian people coming
@@monty1637if you’re not in the uk I’d be amazed.
No one says that about the women doing it every day...for years and year throughout history.....
@@GALAXIE262 he's raising 7 kids and working 3 jobs
i dont think many women did that throughout history. for one because 1 job used go be enough and second, in modern times when a woman gets in a situation like this she usually qualifies for a couple of aid programs. a man? good luck...
That man is real. After he's done grieving, there's no chance that man will be alone.

We thank you for sharing this video from the bottom of our hearts! Keep up the good work it moved me to tears. 😢
This is how everyone in need should be treated.
Oh I’m already tearful. Oh that poor man. 7 kids. May he have the strength & determination to just keep going & loving his children. Bless him.
Ce n'est peut être pas plus dur . Car dans une grande famille ,les grands apprennent aux plus jeunes . Il y a une grande collaboration avec le parent unique . Sans pour autant leur voler leur jeunesse ,dans la mesure où ce qu'ils font est à leur portée . Et toute la famille est unie . Seuls les plus jeunes demandent beaucoup de temps à leur consacrer . Ainsi ,il n'y a pas de place à un enfant roi . Nous sommes tellement heureux les grandes familles !!!!
Stop making me cry!!!!!❤ this is a true dad letting his kids see that it's ok to cry, be appreciative and also being humble and grateful.

Death is tough man. It’s the hardest concept to understand. When I lost my girlfriend the pain was unbearable and I just didn’t understand why god would take such an amazing nice beautiful woman so early. Still don’t really. But giving up sounded so good for so long and I commend anybody that continues to push forward through pain. You deserve everything ❤
My brother passed suddenly 3 years ago from a brain/spin tumors we had no idea about. He had a beautiful paragraph on the back of his funeral pamphlet.
The end of it said something along the lines of “he allows our pain to be so great to prove he takes the best first”. But it isn’t fair and the pain never goes away. I’m so sorry for your loss. I can’t imagine losing someone that you love in that capacity.

How sweet!! What a wonderful thing to do. This just goes to show it is just as nice to give as it is to receive. I am sure he can use "THIS" as well. I know these gifts are going to make their Christmas very special. The children will have so much fun shopping for those toys. It's so nice to see there are some giving, thoughtful folks out there. Seven children, "wow" he sure has his hands full, but with a group like that, I'm sure they all chip in to help. I know as I come from a family of nine. One Christmas was so wonderful for us kids as there was a Secret Santa that helped us on Christmas one year, and we really needed it too. It was the best Christmas "ever!! I'm 77 years old and I never forgot the wonderful gifts and Christmas thanks to the Secret Santa's out there, now and back then when I was a little girl of nine. Thank you so much to all those Secret Santa's out there. I wish him and his children all the best for the future, Cat

@@_asantesana_squashbanana_ sure it is a lot of stress. But in our religious denomination, the decision to have that many kids is mutual. Obviously the wife has the final say. Some women just want a really big family. My wife and I both come from a family of 4 kids and we want to have 4-5 of our own. But if a health crisis happens to my wife before we have them then that we will stop. Ultimately my wife has the final say as to how many. Some couples just want to have more kids than most.
