I thought it was GREAT that you allowed the Mom and her son from Wichita Falls, TX on the set to meet everyone.  You could see she was truly touched and she deserved that moment.  What may seem like a small thing to some, will be a moment she will never forget.  You made her dream come true and I thank you for that.  As fans, we sit in our homes and dream and envision what it would be like to be there, meet you and be able to feel some of the MAGIC of television.  You gave her a gift that can never be taken away and will never be forgotten.  Kudos for taking the time to do that.  Sometimes it is the small things in life that can have the largest impact.  This is why I love your show and think the TODAY show is the BEST morning news program ever!  Keep up the great job.
That is great what he did for his mother, what an amazing love they have for each other.

I know not all comments will be posted or your suppose to stay on topic but wanted to know why is there not a blog for the guy who slapped the little girl?? Thats huge!
Loved your kindness to Mary and her son!
What a great thing to let Mary Lee and her son on the set! I am from Wichita Falls,Tx also and it is always neat to see someone from your home town on the show!
Mary's son did a wonderful thing for his mom and ya'll gave her a moment that will last forever.
Bless them and ya'll for making a dream come true.
The Today Show rocks!
What a double suprise for the Mom to have her son take her to NY and then to be brought onto the set of TODAY.  This was a wonderful act of kindness on everyone's part, and I am glad that you shared it with all of us.  I took my parents to Ireland in June and know first hand how heartwarming it is to fulfill a dream of your parents and how much they appreciate it.  It's the memories you create together that truly are the greatest gifts.  Thanks for bringing a smile to our day.
Meredith,

Thank you so much for what you did for my Mom.  I truely can never express my graditude.  She has worked so hard my whole life and all I could do was get her to New York and your kindess truely made her dream come true.  She is an amazing mom.  Her and my gradmother(aka MA)taught me that you can overcome any challenge through Hard Work, Prayer, and showing kindness to others.
What a refreshing story!  This is a great memory that David and his Mom will share forever. It's amazing to see what an impact such a small gesture makes to people.  Thank you all for taking the time to make this a trip of a lifetime for Mary and David.
Meredith,

There are no words to express the joy I felt yesterday as I watched my mom's biggest dream come true. In a since two dreams were fulfilled yesterday, the first, my mom's for being in New York and on The Today Show, and second mine for seeing it all take place. Thank you for your kindness, for the woman you interviewed yesterday deserves more than my brother or I could ever give her. She has always been the most amazing mom. Thank you again and God Bless
