Oh, Bonnie. You are an absolute angel for doing that for your viewer. I am in tears. This is just the thing I needed to see during the holiday season. Your kids will have such huge hearts because of you.
I didn't think I could love you even more than before! Tears running down my face! That was just the SWEETEST thing EVER! Merry Christmas to you ALL!!! You have helped me get through yet another year! We lost our son 7 years ago, and life has never been so hard! You and your family have been here for me and have brought back some laughter and joy back to my heart! Much love and happiness to you all from GA! Forever & Always Y'all! :)
I just love today vlog! The kids decorating the gingerbread houses and when you blessed strangers on the street with merry Christmas and of course the end... You have a big heart, bonnie. The girl looked so happy.
How sweet is this! Had me crying in 3 different parts. Kids saying merry Christmas to everyone, Boston telling the story of our saviours birth, and the the special little girl being able to meet you guys. The sweetest !
Hands down this is one of my favorite videos on your channel. What a beautiful little girl and what a blessing you guys are to her!!! I have to admit I did cry when the family came in and when I saw the sweet look on her face❤️❤️❤️Thank you for sharing Bonnie!!!
The girl that visited you was so sweet and sang well and Olivia was beautiful and loving to hold her hand and accept her. Some children are afraid or embarrassed to embrace other kids with disabilities. Olivia, you are an awesome kid!!!! You have so much grace and a beautiful soul blessed by your Heavenly Father, actually their is only one God so he is my Father too, if you think about it.
Hi Bonnie n Joel.........first of all I LOVE Boston’s little story, what he learned at church, so sweet. Then for you guys to take time out of your day to meet this sweet young lady n her family, I don’t know it touched me so much. It pulled my heart strings. A lot of tears shed. You guys have such big hearts. I hope u r all having a blessed week. Lots of Love from Canada🤗🤗🤗
This was hands down one of my favorite vlogs since day one! I love your heart, your family and love for others. Bonnie and Joel, you are both so blessed, as you deserved to be. Merry Christmas!
I love your willingness to give and to spread love and joy-from the cute Christmas greetings on Temple Square to the family you welcomed into your home at the end. And honestly, for all the goodness of family that you share! Thank you!
I absolutely bawled my eyes out at the end. I think I’m just feeling particularly emotional at the moment, but the tenderness & sweetness between both families, & the excitement on that beautiful young woman’s face just spoke volumes. You made her entire year guys! You all have such hearts of gold. Just precious 💜 Loved the family bonding over ginger bread house making too! Had a giggle over Lincoln, I didn’t think he’d get far but he tried so darn hard haha! Love you guys xx
BONNIE!! the last clip brought me to tears! I’m soooo emotional it’s not even funny. You and Joel are so sweet for opening your home to your biggest fan!
This video made me cry happy tears, Bonnie your family is such a inspiration and I am so thankful that out of alll your viewers you allowed that little girl to see you and welcome her in ur home!!
This made me cry. HOELLIEN family you are the best. Seeing how happy the little girl was, was priceless. Keeping doing what you are doing. Love watching all your amazing videos
Bonnie & Joel, the ending of your video was so heartwarming! I'm sure that sweet girl will never forget the time she was able to spend with you & your family! I want to applaud the two of you for teaching your children inclusion and acceptance! Olivia seems to have such a kind heart!
That was so super awesome that that the special viewer was able to come to your house and meet your family. It really was keeping with the true spirit of Christmas and just makes my heart sore!
Bonnie and Joel.....you have hearts of gold. Watching that young girls delight at meeting you all and spending time with you is something she won't soon forget. Little things in life are the best things. Time is one of the hardest things to share and you decided to share yours with her. Bravo. Loving your neighbor as we are told to do. Merry Christmas!!!!!!
The end part with the special guest brought me to tears, because my older brother has down syndrome. You guys are absolutely incredible! I love you guys, your family, and what you do!
Bonnie if I couldn’t love you anymore! I’m in tears.... my son is 5 years old and has Down syndrome! Thank you for making that sweet girls wish come true😘😘😘
This made me smile and cry all at the same time! You guys are wonderful people!!!!!! I feel so lucky I found your channel 1.5 years ago! Merry Christmas!
That was such a beautiful ending, I'm 8 weeks pregnant and probably highly emotional but I couldn't hold back the tears watching how happy that sweet young lady was to meet you all
I don’t like to comment much, but I just had to! I want to thank you for allowing this sweet sweet girl to come into your home and spend time with you. I don’t cry at very many things but I was for sure tearing up! I hope that viewer sees this (sorry but I don’t know her name) but I’m so glad she got her Christmas wish. She seems like a genuinely sweet person.❤️❤️❤️
ok, the end of your vid has me in tears. Your heart is so huge! I love that your family took time to meet your biggest fan. What a special surprise for her! And when Joel had the kids saying Merry Christmas and Lincolns lil voice saying it...oh gosh cuteness overload! ok now off to find my box of tissues :) Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family.

I am just bawling what a super sweet thing your family did Bonnie for your fan. It just shows how kind and amazing you all are! My dream is to one day meet you Bonnie and give you the biggest hug ever (along with your other siblings), you have no idea how watching you all has gotten me through some of my toughest and dark days. Seeing such an amazing and loving family gives me hope that mine can hopefully be the same. xoxo Sending all my love from South Dakota!!

My dad passed away in April of this year. So this is my first Christmas without him. And it’s hard for my family. Cause dad absolutely loved Christmas! So watching this video definitely pulled some heart strings 😣
Eve Bbyg I’m sorry to hear about your dad. I hope you will take this time at Christmas to remember & go over memories of your dad instead of being so sad about Christmas. I remember the first Christmas without my dad, I won’t lie, it’s not the same, but we made the best of it & reminisced. This is 10 years now my dad has not been with us for Christmas. I’m not saying it’s not ok to be sad, but to look at it differently. I know this has helped with our family & hopefully it will help with yours. Wishing you a Merry Christmas! And I’m sending a hug to you & your family!
Corrine thank you for your kind, uplifting words! It’s been bitter sweet but we are trying to make the best out of it for dad. For us. Happy holidays! xoxo💛
3109C thank you so much! Although my heart will never be the same. Life sure is beautiful. I’m left with wonderful memories of how amazing my dad was. And I hope you have beautiful memories too💛
The ending made me cry tears of joy. This will be our first Christmas without our special treasure, but i know she is dancing and singing and waiting with grandma and grandad for tthe merriest reunion when its our time to join her. 💗💖💝💖💗
