Oh my gosh, that little boy just cracked me up, reminds me of how my youngest son used to be. He’s in college now, no longer wild, no longer a class clown, no longer getting calls from teachers that he gets the class laughing and chiming in on his naughty behavior. Cherish that little boys happy wild behaviour, he will become a young man whom no longer is that wild child, but reserved, quiet, and disciplined in his studies. I miss that personality he had as my youngest wild child.

To be fair, if they had been too stern on camera, I'm sure there would have been backlash on social media. I hear you. It was difficult to continue with the video as it WAS distracting. He's probably just a very active boy who has difficulty remaining still. My son was like that. He's 26 now and is so chill. Thank goodness!!!

How cute when the little daughter comforts her mom and then bravely expresses such gratitude. She is a doll!

That little girl at the end.....humility like that is learned. Good job mom and dad. God Bless and Merry Christmas all.

Humility can also be learned from tragedy. My friend was always a modest person and when he died, It humbled me.

My personal theory. The eldest child in any family tends to be more responsible, modest, humble and in some cases the smallest amongst the siblings. Since he/she is the eldest, more time is spent with the parents.

So true , she made me cry such a true heart . My mum always says “ there’s always someone worse off so there’s no point feeling sorry for yourself, help others “ and her favourite “ I felt sorry for myself because I had no shoes until I saw the man who has no feet !!”.

I’ve thought about that family more than once this year and wondered how they were getting along.

This entire story made me cry my eyes out. I pray for the fathers full recovery you can tell they are a great family.

I would like to personally thank the anonymous donor for making the world a much better place by helping regular people who are down & out. And Nate is so personable & makes people feel comfortable. So sweet.

What a unbelievable deserving family! Mom making sure that she mention as many folks as she could do in that short time who did the things. The dad who deeply thanked Secret Santa for changing their lives. Precious princess who mentions the homeless being more deserving while she delights in the orderliness of her own room. And little mister with his exuberance! What a precious family!! You DID deserve this blessing from God through Secret Santa, delivered by Nate and EIN Elves! And you, Dad and provider, worked very hard to use the gift wisely! Blessings!

This was a great update, cause the original vid really got me in the feels. So good to see how the gift itself spiraled into a community effort to help these guys build their home and get rid of a portion of worries. The fact that the little one is goofing around like he does, is a real sight to see. It displays kinda like the happieness, everyone should have as a kid. Secret Santa and Nate are always awesome to watch! Merry Christmas from Germany!

AND the committee who picks each recipient! Hope I got everyone. As always, thank you Nate and crew at East Idaho News, and Secret Santa. There's no way this could ever get old.

WHOEVER SECRET SANTA IS MAY HIS SOUL BE REFINED WITH LONG LASTING LIFE, MERRY X-MASS.

I'm glad this has a positive ending. That little boy needs lots of space for all his energy.

Sometimes all people want is a little help. To know when you hit rock bottom the only way is up...well done secret Santa. Looks like everyone needs a little space from that hyperactive young man. What a sweetie your daughter is...enjoy your new home

I am so happy to see this wonderful family in their home for this Christmas!! God bless you all. Secret Santa, you are amazing!! The son is amazingly happy to be in the house!! Hearing on how the community came together to help these people is what America is supposed to be all about!!!

Their young son cracked me up. He’s such a cutie and the whole family was so deserving. Blessing to everyone who helped them.

Great to see them all together. Stay strong!

Wow! How blessed they are. They seem like a really deserving family.

I'm so glad they are in their new house!

I'm happy that they're doing well.

This is the follow up I was really hoping for and asked a couple of times for. It really touched a chord with me last year.

Secret Santa and Nate did their best surprise with this family, you gave them hope and love.

I love the updates! I remember this awesome family and it’s great to see them in their home. Secret Santa, Nate, and the News are changing the world one family at a time. God bless you all! Love from California! ❤️👌🏻🎄

Such a deserving family. This one really stuck in my memory from last year. Great update. They're so humble. Wishing them all the best.

I just commented yesterday on their original video that I'd love to see an update on this sweet family and here it is! They so deserved it! I love the way the daughter was consoling the mom with her touch. I love Secret Santa!!

Thanks Nate, what a wonderful follow-up to one of the most moving Secret Santa segments. "The reward fir a mitzvah, is another mitzvah." This story supports that truth. Love from Jerusalem.

Wonderful to follow up and see the blessings continue. Some just need a hand up!!. Such a boy!!

Beautiful and humble family. Well deserve for Secret Santa's gift. God bless this humble family. God bless to Secret Santa and Nate, you're the instrument from God.
