I don't know how you do it, SIX Angel Tree kids, your own family to sort out and now this?! Incredible. I've been the victim of theft twice in the last 2 months and it's affected my mental health quite badly but these videos have really restored a lot of my faith in humanity and Christmas spirit. The ripple effect of your generosity and kindness is far-reaching. Thank you for all that you do and remember to look after yourself too! Merry Christmas :)
I’ll be honest. I do look up to Mary in different ways. She works full time, does full time RUclips, provides for her kids and takes care of everything as a single parent. THEN also has time to buy and give gifts to different charities. My parents are both quite well off but never would do anything like this, I really do admire her selflessness.
Mary, as a long-term care nurse, this touches me so much! We do angel trees for our residents where I work and anytime I hear of someone doing something sweet for these folks just warms my heart. So many of them have no families or families who don't visit. It's sad and these little gifts are sometimes the only thing they'll receive. They will love your stocking stuffers, believe me!!! God bless you. And thank you!!!
I'm a retired RN and my last 3 years I was a home health nurse. You are so right. A lot of my visits were to people who I was the only person they saw that month. It made my job so rewarding to be able to not only take care of their nursing needs, but to just sit and visit with them. I so miss them all.
Mary, with all the videos you make for us, the many donations you shop for/wrap/itemize on lists/drop off, your exercise, lawn maintenance, daily chores, flawless manicures, raising children, meal planning and preparation, writing a novel, working... I honestly have to wonder: WHEN do you SLEEP?! You are such an inspiration, but also I'm a little frightened when I think of what your schedule must look like. You are absolutely my hero. I strive to be even half as productive as you, and to have even half of my shit half as together as you.
Thank you so much Mary. Believe me they will truly appreciate your thoughtfulness and kindness. Before the pandemic, I was blessed to participate with a church group that gathered similar items and delivered them. Many of the residents didn't have friends or family in town or living anymore and they were so happy to have visitors and receive gifts. Merry Christmas to you and your loved one.
Mary is just one of the best human beings iv ever come across in my life. I wish I lived near her I would make it my personal goal to become her best friend 😂 we love you mary 💖
Mary I've been really struggling with my depression and other personal struggles. Your kindness and doing so much for others makes me feel happy and restores faith in humanity. You are such a good person. We need more like you.
Your kindness spreads far and wide. Thank you for sharing this lovely video with us. Whoever receives these stocking will feel so loved and appreciative. Merry Christmas, Mary and God Bless!
Your a very kind lady Mary! Helping with the Angel Tree kids to buying stuff for those older people at the nursing homes shows how caring and generous you are!!! We sure need more people like you! Cool stuff you bought to fill the stockings!!! Nice Mary! I will look forward to watch your new videos when you upload them!!! Enjoy your day!!!😊👍
I’m just stopping by to tell you that you are so amazing, generous and I can’t imagine what I’d be doing at night without watching your videos… probably not sleeping! Just so you know, I had a short break at work, I played a whisper video and I FELL ASLEEP 😂 at WORK! I never do that. Thanks for all you do, Mary. Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
I actually was reduced to tears watching this. You’re such a kind hearted lady and I hope Santa leaves you something amazing under your tree for you cos you sooo deserve it! My Gran is spending her first Christmas in a care home and it breaks my heart that there are some that don’t have family to get gifts for them at Christmas time 😢
Thanks for the inspiration, Mary. I had never heard of "Angel Tree" before your vids (how sad is that?), and now I've adopted 5 different tween recipients for the program this holiday. The last few years have been some of the absolute worst I've personally experienced, but things are very slowly returning to my new normal. I thought to celebrate my gratitude I would try and help brighten others' Christmases. Thank you for sharing your info and being such a positive inspiration to your followers!!
Thanks to you Mary and your inspiring video I bought today a few gifts for children at the hospital. It was the first time for me and for sure not the last! Hugs from France 🤗🥰
Oh my gosh Mary, I can’t tell you how comforting it was to hear you mention your grandad who had Parkinson’s. My dad has Parkinson’s and it has progressed rapidly in the last few months. He has moved to a home and it has been a pretty difficult transition. I’m always touched by your nostalgia and honesty but this brief mention was especially moving and familiar for me. Happy Holidays, Mary 💕 🎄
Mary you did so much, such a kind heart. I did something similar here and the staff that I spoke with suggested I buy some items sugar free as they had some diabetic patients and the doctors did not want these patients to violate the menu restrictions. I also brought circle a word books and a special color pen for men and a different color for women. And a comb for the men in one color and a comb for the ladies in another color. My brother has Parkinson's and I appreciate it when you speak of your Grandfather, it gives a more personal side to this terrible illness, that the web sites does not give. Thank you for sharing, blessings for the boys, your Dad and Step Mom, and Mom, and Brother and his wife, and for you dear Mary.
this video is great! i love listening to your accent it always feels so "homey" and relaxes the hell out of me lol. thank you for the videos you make! :)
Glad you're hopping aboard the Christmas kindness train with your neighbour Mary! The sewing kit analogy shade! 🤣 Laughs + ASMR = the BEST lol PS. Love that you and Buddy the Elf have the same happy expressions at the end in other video and felt like i was right there at the parade too.♡
Wow Mary! You are such a gem, the residents will be so happy to receive the stockings. Such a wonderful initiative from your neighbor. Also I’m cracking up from your description of the Russell Stover chocolate covers 🤣
Hello Mary how are you I hope all is well with you & your family I found the socks you mentioned in your video & I love them❤️ Thank you for mentioning them
I want to visit the southern US states. I've only been to the US twice and the only places I saw were California, New York and Boston. There's some really incredible stuff in all those places but tbh with you the people are kind of mean and cynical. But Southerners just seem so much nicer. Gentle with lovely manners and so generous and hospitable. I bet I could make friends with people there. And you guys have lots of incredible stuff to see there too.
You'd think that it sucks, but I can tell you that from my experience, the older you get, the more you appreciate simple things. Shoot, if you were to ask me what I'd like for Christmas, I'd probably say lotion and other useful stuff!
See I think you’re missing what truly sucks… the real problem here is that unfortunately elderly residents of nursing homes often don’t have loved ones who visit or bring gifts. As someone who’s worked in nursing care facilities, I can tell you how thankful these residents will be to know someone cared enough about them to fill stockings with items they may lack and need
The older one gets I think the less materialistic they become. At least that’s the way it’s been with all those more elderly in my life. They have realized what really holds value… and sometimes that is just a sense a gratitude and contentment with the little things.

Thank you so much! Merry Christmas! 😊 🎄
I swear Ms Mary is just the best Merry Christmas 🎄 💜💜
Gosh I'm so sorry that happened! A big virtual hug for you 💞
Mary, you inspired me to adopt an adult at our local homeless shelter. Tonight I picked out her gifts! Thank you! ❤

Before the video even started I had a fizzy nose and tears in my eyes because Mary just blows me away. This is true Christmas spirit. ❤
I’m sure your contribution helps out . So very kind and thoughtful of you. So many people in nursing homes have no family. ❤️

You have a talent in finding cute stuff for stockings and you are extremely generous!

You are a wonderful human. The senior citizens will be so grateful 🙏
You are such a shining light in this moment of darkness for so many of us, Mary. Genuinely thank you for all you do ❤

You bought such beautiful, practical and useful things. I pray your donations actually go to the residents of the facility.

Greetings from Holland Mary! Love your videos ❤
Soft peppermint is a nursing home favorite with residents
"Kinda like my first husband... really cute but they don't do much." I am DECEASED
Hii Mary!! Good to see you too!
This so good ms maryy😍
“kinda like my first husband” 😂 love the video!

I love your videos!
Great ideas Mary.
Love the comparison to your first husband 😂🤣
You are so sweet and I love this videos!
Where did you get the lifesaver candy set?
I have seen them at Aldi and Target, and I found the one I showed in this video at Walmart in their seasonal candy aisle. :)
@@SouthernASMRSounds thank you!
Wot a fantastic idea x
“kind of like my first husband “ LMFAOO
Poor old Rudolf, his reputation was slandered 😂😂😂
Hi Mary!😊❤
Mary is doing Santa’s work
Like my first husband, really cute but they don't do much. Hahahaha!!🎉
Love this.. you are a sweet ❤️
Thank you!! 😊
Santa Mary
But I like the crinkles......................🥰
No. Not the ones I cut out. When I say they're loud, I am NOT kidding.
RUclips ads are going to make you lose viewers. No wonder tiktok has overtaken youtube. Btw, love your vids!
Maybe I should just remove all ads. Hmmm.
First
Now I can say that I absolutly love your videos and I like to listen to them while doing other things like crocheting. It feels like I’m not alone. 😘😘
First time ever being first!!
I love love love your videos. I lay in bed with my baby at night and he falls asleep to them too
God that was depressing af. It’s kind of you but gosh how much does life suck when you’re so old that ppl give you basic toiletries for Christmas.
You'd think that it sucks, but I can tell you that from my experience, the older you get, the more you appreciate simple things. Shoot, if you were to ask me what I'd like for Christmas, I'd probably say lotion and other useful stuff!

No Depressing is Being Elderly ,And Having Family that that Leave You ,Not Caring If You Are Laying in your Own waste.Mary is their Angel
I find a lot of older people don’t want much for presents and usually think of things practical that they can use.
The older one gets I think the less materialistic they become. At least that’s the way it’s been with all those more elderly in my life. They have realized what really holds value… and sometimes that is just a sense a gratitude and contentment with the little things.
