Young mother surprised with gift from Secret Santa
Eileen Parker is one of the strongest, humblest, most amazing people you could ever meet.
Her young husband, Ben, has had cancer twice since their 8-year-old was born. Keeping up with the medical bills has been tough on them, but they’ve gotten through.
Ben is a school teacher in Idaho Falls and has a second job to make things work. Until last week, they only have one car which Ben drove to work. That meant Eileen walked her two oldest kids, along with their 3-year-old, to and from school every day. The 6-year-old is in half-day kindergarten so Eileen and the 3-year-old walk to and from the school three times each day.
This family never asks for anything for themselves. They are extremely frugal and humble. When asked what they could use for Christmas, Eileen said they were ok and didn’t need anything because they were better off now than during the “cancer years”.
Secret Santa asked the EastIdahoNews.com elves to go surprise the Parkers with an early Christmas gift. Watch the video above to see what happened!

She is even more amazing than we thought in this video. Unfortunately she was in a terrible car crash with her father, at first they thought she was OK but got septicaemia and lost all her limbs. Her strength of character and spirit are far beyond words. I’m also from the UK and think Nate and Secret Santa are very special people, but in this instance no one is more amazing and special that Rosalie. kzread.info/dash/bejne/faWiz6Whnpi3erQ.html

Its just so awful knowing what that little girl has to go through not long after this video at all.
👍👍To the secret Santa !
Why would anyone thumb down these thoughtful, loving acts of kindness?. You really have major problems in your cold heart. The love of Jesus will break those chains. He does a wonderful job in the presentation of these gifts. Many blessing to all. Always pay it forward.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Wow . True Americans . Love this story. I hope they are doing amazing financial wise now .

I love these. Secret Santa is awesome. god bless you for making the world a better place.
Santa's money so Santa can share with whomever he/she wants but I too would love to see the impact Santa could make (in your area) on the homeless. I live in Chico California and because of the Camp fire we have a lot of new homeless. I think it would be harder to be homeless in Idaho because of the weather. I love these videos, thanks for sharing them and a warm thanks to your Idaho Secret Santa for all the smiles he/she brings year after year. God Bless you all and the Merriest of Christmases .......

@Sh L You would think there were agencies that would help people get back on their feet, yet a large percentage of the fire victims over here are still without their homes two years later. These agencies collect "our" donated cash and then put a cap on how much they will help and those that didn't have fire insurance will never have their homes rebuilt because the help was never going to be enough to restore these families back to where they were before the fires. Stay safe and Happy Holidays.
God Bless the secret Santa
aww oh my gosh! they are such a sweet and beautiful family! ❤️❤️
All these people who Si deserve this and Merry Christmas to Them.
Crazy that the school couldn’t make an exception for the bus thing!
God bless you

My circs are difficult so instead of giving cash I help out as a volunteer. There are hundreds of charities who need helpers. It gives me a lifeline to the outside world so the benefits work both ways.

In 2019, I believe, the father and the two daughters were in a car accident. The little girl, Rosalie, in this video, lost her arms and legs up to her knees because of it. I’ve been binge watching all of EIN’s secret santa videos and a video of their story popped up on my feed. They are all doing really well and are in good spirits it seems! Here’s the video that tells their story: kzread.info/dash/bejne/faWiz6Whnpi3erQ.html There’s another video you can find from last year where they gave an update on her and her family.

I would of given them $5000.00
Would have given them the new car, the one they were given was likely not new.
Lucky niceness didn't get patented
:-):-):-):-):-)
This is where I get to leave and *Old Guy Comment.* Those kids can't walk to school on their own? WHEN I WAS THEIR AGE I was delivering newspapers in knee high snow by myself.......Try dragging a sled full of papers that weighs more than your thru a snowstorm.
Ironically, if they didn't get them the car they would have been walking and the car accident wouldn't have happened.
Why are the gifts getting cheap and not equal to amounts given to likewise benefactors?
Why the men go away???? There must be a strick law just to marry once and with one and should stay the whole life. My heart breaks down when I see a single mum. Isn't it?

With all due deep respect for what you guys are doing but I'm also really disturbed by so much sorrow and misery because of a completely crooked system where virtually everything is left to the market! Damn, that sucks! And Trump is not gonna change that! In The Netherlands about 1.1 out of 17.2 million people are living under poverty line. The ratio is in The US much higher!!

Secret santa wanted to give her a new car, which is what 25,000 dollars? But instead he settles for $3000. BURN

If she saw the videos on youtube she had to expect a car or $ 15,000, what a disappointment!
A Kohl's gift card for clothes unfortunately won't help them with the mounting medical bills.
Sooo, they've had TWO visits from secret Santas inside two weeks. Sounds a little unfair.
Looked fake and played out.
CLOSE THE STINKIN' DOOR !!!! You can't heat the whole NEIGHBORhOOD !!!
There is no god. But there are good people. Stop your blabbering about blessings and prayers - they do nothing for anyone other than yourself. Try giving some money instead. Won't do it, will ya?
