I don’t understand how you could be losing subscribers. Yours is the single best series on YT. I look forward to Vlogmas everyday 🙏🙏🙏

[@brandi680]

Yes! I quite agree! How can someone who's so positive and happily infectious with her brightness and glow lose subscribers!? She's like a ray of sunshine! 🌞🌻

[@trishapm8874]

I look foward to your vlogs everyday!! It is my hygge me-time. You inspire me to live life to the fullest and unapologetically. And I have to add that Landon is such a joy to watch too. I grew up around alot of toxic male masculinity. I am awed at how supportive Landon is to you, his care, his genuine joy in spending time with you and engaging in all your adventures, hanging out with the gals .....I hope there's and Landon out thete for me. You two really are soulmates!!!

[@EmmaLou8424]

I second this. It's lovely to see Landon and Morgan together. There absolutely is a Landon out there for you ❤

[@victoriah.2083]

Remember peeps who are sensitive, empathetic and imaginative tend to have anxiety. When you can imagine the worst case scenario- you can also imagine positive outcomes. I need to remember that myself. I also have a couple of friends who have NEVER had an anxiety episode or panic attack. So it is part of the way we are wired. The positive side is I know I am more moved by music, movies, books, art, nature and our incredible journey being human.⭐️✝️❤️🙏

[@quietlife7186]

Thank you for Vlogmas #17!!!❤🎉 I've been praying for you Morgan, and I am so thankful to see that you have had a good day today. I'm so thankful that Landon was able to share your day with you and the two of you make more wonderful memories together.❤ I never want you to film a video at your own expense, but I am so thankful for when you can put up another video to share. Like many other people have said, you are helping me get through some difficult times. Your video yesterday really resonated with me. I have struggled with all of the things that you mentioned my entire life and I am still reminding myself that it's ok for me to take care of myself and to have needs and the need to rest and have quiet is a huge, ongoing need for me. Sending you my Love and keeping you in my prayers 💕🙏. Goodnight. Thank you!!!

[@JeffJensen55]

You read comments of love, understanding and encouragement because your personality draws that response from people. And you’re right - this is a wonderful community. ❤❤

[@tracihines9004]

Thank you for taking the time to create videos everyday. I keep looking for you every night and it is helping so much with my Christmas mood. ❤❤ you are so appreciated. From SF CA ❤

[@KristenMelissa]

Tabitha, your message is so relatable and so comforting. ❤ This takes me back to Portland! 😍📚🍿💕🌲 Thank you for another cozy, comforting vlog! ✨️

[@victoriah.2083]

Been praying for you over that last vlog about ANXIETY. I know how you feel and am blessed to have 2 friends who suffer from chronic anxiety. (I don't mean I am happy they have it. I am happy to have friends who can understand how I feel. And vice versa.) You had some stressers before your outing. And you didn't sleep well the night before. I find that anxiety can rear its insidious self when I have had insomnia or a few nights battling insomnia. But Mo, you might have SAD and that could exercerbate anxiety. You were so brave to voice your feelings and recognize or identify triggers that might make anxiety more problematic. And so great that Landon and friends were there to support and uphold you. Remember, feelings come and go. Anxiety is usually thought driven, but can be brought on by scents, events, ambience and even others talking about how great they are doing. Just say, "This too shall pass. I am brave, wondrous and ok." ❤❤❤ Luv you, Mo. Thanks for being you. You are MORE than you think! 😘

[@keepingupwiththejoneses746]

Literally stayed up waiting for this video so I could watch before bed!!

[@MorganLong]

Ahhh!! I love the excitement!! And sweet dreams, friend ✨

[@MountainWhispers86]

I've absolutely loved your vlogmas videos. I catch myself just smiling when your smiling when you're talking. They have been such a joy. My husband and I want to take our kiddos to see Wonka. I'm so glad your reviews were good and that makes me want to go even more. Keep smiling Morgan you are a light in so many peoples lives and you never know who you might make smile on their bad day too. Take care Morgan, Landon and Rue!

[@kaiju_k5042]

This was a slice of lovely, if you ever open a bakery that sells books too I might just have to move in next door. Happy B to Lan :) big hugs to you guys.

[@susannguyen8268]

This message today really hit hard. I often feel like I’m not doing enough to build the life I desire because of family commitments. I’m left exhausted and depleted most weeks and feel like a failure when I am not working towards my dreams. It’s very easy to utter words of encouragement to others yet when it’s time to speak to myself I find it hard to implement and take my own advice. I feel very grateful for the message of the day as it reminds me I’m not alone in this ❤ thank you so much!

[@Catherine.B.]

The photo booth part was so special💛 I’m so thankful you’re feeling better Morgan. We are all here for you, always. I don’t want your Vlogmas to end🥹🤍🎄 Happy Birthday Landon!

[@brendaamos4523]

Happy Birthday Landon! Great video! So glad you are feeling better! Tabitha's message was spot on. Perfectionism is a struggle and that tends to bring on my old pal Anxiety. 😣 Hers was a good reminder!

[@tamelinbrown6114]

I admire you so much! Your openness and honesty with your struggles is helping soooooo many people. As one who also struggles with anxiety & depression, it always does me a world of good to know I’m not alone in that. And I hope it helps you to know that you are not alone in that either. This community you’ve created is such a comforting & welcoming place to come to whenever we feel down, lonely, lost or anxious. Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving all of us this safe space to retreat to and renew our spirits. ❤️❤️❤️ We love you, Morgan!! 🥰

[@brandi680]

You have created such a loving and beautiful community here, Morgan! We all adore you, and we're all learning to know each other through you. You should call it your 'oh, Wonderous Community' for the 'Oh, Wonderous you's of your comments and community! ❤ You've created a community of love, acceptance, safety, authenticity, joy, and most especially whimsy and magic! 🧜🏼‍♀️🧚🏼‍♀️🦄🌻🫖✨️

[@Booktrovertdiaries]

You inspired me to make a booktube/gram and bookish shop. Love you Morgan thanks for all the videos!!

[@MorganLong]

That’s amazing!! I’m totally swamped in all my Vlogmas work at the moment but if you comment on a future video with your shop and booktube info, I’d love to check them out ❤️

[@allieblank5992]

Glad you’re feeling better today, but appreciate you being vulnerable and sharing your ups and downs. 😊 I’ve thoroughly been enjoying the voice messages at the end of your videos. It gives a warm fuzzy feeling of connection and community. 🌌

[@quaintlychristine]

When the song stated playing when you were going into Powells it gave me strong memories of my grandparents. Not until you lose your favorite people will you understand the mix of emotions that come when that nostalgia hits. It's the sweetest yet most painful feeling. ❤😢 I love vlogmas and your music choices are always so so good!

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

One week to go before Christmas!

[@brendagarnder9758]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! MY CHALLENGE WITH GRIEVING TODAY AND CRYING! IT'S BEEN AN EMOTIONAL DAY FOR ME! I'M HAPPY FOR YOU THAT YOU'RE DOING BETTER TODAY! SO GLAD THAT YOU AND LANDON WENT OUT AND HAD FUN! THANK YOU FOR THE WARNING WITH THE LIGHTS! THAT WAS GREATLY APPRECIATED! THOUGH I KNOW NOT TO LOOK AT THE PHONE THEN! YOU AND LANDON LOOKED REALLY CUTE IN THE PHOTO BOOTH! THANK YOU FOR BEING REAL ☺️❤️

[@angelamarcinkevich9202]

Morgan there is always time for a reading of a book .

[@deboramissoorten6765]

Thank you for showing up every day and filming and inventing all these great escapes / topics or just the daily life snippets 🙏🏻 it is so lovely to to watch , much appreciated 🥰🎄🍀

[@julie8727]

So happy to know that you're better Morgan ❤ amazing video! Really looking forward to seeing Wonka too!!

[@joannamussulli-moran9925]

Have you seen A Man Called Otto? That one hit me hard

[@kaiju_k5042]

That book was a kick to the heart, love it!

[@MorganLong]

Oooooh yeah. I watched that during the peak of my depression this past summer…it actually gave me a safe space to feel all the heartbreak emotions. Watching it turned out to be therapeutic ❤️

[@NikkiSchumacherOfficial]

Awwww. I went to omsi 30 YEARS AGO on our middle school trip to Portland. 🥹 How does time fly?

[@Laura.v.b]

Looooving vlogmas. I cant explain how much joy it brings me to see it in my subscription box everyday

[@virginiaaustin5576]

Thank you so much for your lovely vlogs, Morgan! I look forward to them everyday. I noticed that KZbin has unsubscribed me as well! I had to subscribe again. So, I don’t think that people are unsubscribing on purpose.

[@julesm9081]

Mo : your videos are always so amazing. That anxiety video made me feel seen. Thank you xxx 💕I love all your videos so much. Discovering your channel some time ago, was such a blessing. You always share such genuine and kind thoughts. You’re so so so so talented and inspirational. I wish I was more like you 💕🤗xxx

[@emilycarlson3295]

I’m loving the daily Vlogmas and Mo, Landon, RoO content! You are making the holidays feel more magical again. And, I just got your crewneck in the mail today and it made my whole week!! Sending love :)

[@ireneschoonwinkel]

Hey Mo😊 What a beautiful day! I am so happy that you and Landon were blessed with such a lovely day where you could just spend time together and enjoy Portland. I also thought the light show looked like my parents' old computer screen🤣. In regards to the theatre! That looked incredible!! It's definitely one of the places I would like to visit if I'm ever in Portland. Thank you for sharing it. I haven't watched the Woka movie yet, but I've seen the trailer, and it looks so interesting. Hope you, Landon and Roo are keeping well. Ps. Love your green coat!

[@sandyadams3267]

Your channel is my very favorite on KZbin. I think you are so talented, authentic, creative and kind. I have had some difficult times with anxiety and I believe you help so many people who know what it's about. I really enjoy your everyday experiences. You, Landon and Roo are refreshingly special. ❤

[@andraste6746]

“Nausea inducing” probably not the promotional phrase they went with 🤣 You took me back in time, when I visited friends in Portland 15 years ago one of the places we took the kids OMSI, we had a great time there. I’m Australian but if I was to live anywhere in the States I think it would be Portland.

[@herstrangekind]

We need a Magical Movie list. My entry would be the French movie “Amelie” which is my most favorite film. Excited to see Wonka now!

[@Itsrachelmccarthy]

I will be sad when vlogmas is over- I have so enjoyed spending time with you and Landon and Roo every day ❤ you’ve made my holiday season so much more cozy and happy. Thank you, Morgan 😊 much love to you

[@hazelgator6548]

I did a photobooth with my boyfriend (now husband) for the first time when we were dating and like Landon I found it more fun than I thought it would be! That was like ten YEARS ago. I think this is my sign we must do it again! And with our toddler this time! 😲😆

[@liemdrake]

I have been to a Christmas laser light show a few times when I was a kid. They actually played songs by Mannheim Steamroller and also I do want to see Wonka myself.

[@sjthorn]

The laser show sounds so cool, especially having grown up on those 90's screen savers lol. Now I will have to find an opportunity to see Wonka.

[@AudreyDeary]

My husband & I also met in Chemistry class! We didn’t start dating until a couple of years later, but it’s a fun story to share ☺️

[@awildbecoming]

I’m impressed at your enthusiasm to continue vlogmas and not being down spirited about losing subscribers. Many wouldn’t. Vlogmas seems to be more about depth with your super fans, not really acquiring new subscribers so I feel like you’re seeing it for what it is. And it’s still adding value to your channel, even if the on paper “numbers” don’t show it

[@liemdrake]

Happy birthday to your boyfriend Landon he is really lucky to have you since you are beautiful and kind and also had did interest with skateboarding before send most of my skateboarding in video games allot more and also the ornament that he pulled out from the Advent calendar looks like a group of bells.

[@LouJaxnAdventures]

Ah we love the OMSI! We went for their Marvel exhibit a few months ago (or last year? who knows lol) Loving your vlogmas!

[@leesawarshauer7928]

My next thrift..a cooper tea kettle. Every time I see this..I want one!!

[@rebeccafarinash9308]

plz lemme know when and where you start selling stuff!!

[@Emilyisaknitter]

Watching this with a cup of buttermint tea & my holiday knitting

[@callie.envoyage]

Really loving and feeling totally spoiled by your Vlogmae! ❤

[@Charlotte-ud2to]

Glad that you feel better Morgan ❤ I have no clue how the time zone works, so maybe I'm late but happy birthday Landon! 🎉 And Tabitha, you said exactly what i needed to hear today. Thank you ❤

[@CandiBookishHobbit]

Your channel is one of the best ❤. On a side note I used to have that same pillow sham as the one behind you on the last part of video.

[@andreeastiopu1831]

I can’t wait to go see the movie! This day was simply amazing! 🤗

[@remi.fragrance]

Happy birthday Landon! 🎉☺️ Thank you so much Morgan for all the hard work and dedication you’ve done with vlogmas. I can’t imagine but I kinda can and I may have no place to say this but I’m so proud of you and I’m so incredibly thankful for you and these videos. They’ve made this season festive 🥳 and joyful when in the past, for me, it has always been a bit of a tricky time. So thank you!! Thank you thank you. Y’all are amazing and I wish yall a beautiful happy day and a lovely evening 🥰

[@Popi-oh3hb]

Love your videos! I’ve been visiting my family this past week and can’t wait to binge all the videos I’ve missed when I get home 🥰. Hope you, Landon and Roo have a great rest of the season!

[@ahousethatreads]

I 100% agree about wonka!! It was so so so good

[@adelea6761]

Girl, you look like a vintage dream in your thumbnail! So pretty 🤩

[@MorganLong]

Thank you!!

[@flowermoon2640]

Why do I always cry to these messages

[@julesm9081]

Awww chemistry class?! 💖

[@suzanneparvey4346]

Happy Birthday Landon! 🎂Looks like you had a fun day yesterday going to the OMSI Christmas laser show and also seeing the movie Wonka. I appreciate your recommending it. Also nice you got the last of your Christmas shopping done at Powells and finished writing out your Christmas cards. Always a good feeling. 😊

[@MorganLong]

Hi, Suzanne! Thank you for all your lovely comments ❤️ I'm not sure I recommend the Laser Light Show. It was a fun, silly experience but it did make Landon and I both feel very nauseous! Some people had to leave halfway through. So, if you get motion sickness, I wouldn't recommend it. I hope you're having a lovely Portland December!

[@suzanneparvey4346]

Thanks Mo. Good to know. I should have been more clear as I was actually referring to the Wonka film. I loved the original movie with Gene Wilder but was hesitant to see the new version. Since you recommend it so highly I have a feeling I will really enjoy it too. Yeah the laser show probably would make me a bit sick. @@MorganLong

[@sunny28dandelion]

Thank you very much!💐

[@julesm9081]

I hope you’re ok mo xxx bless you

[@nadyartillustration]

Thank you for sharing ❤ It is so refreshing to see that you do not hide the authentic feelings that can come up for you in daily life - it offers welcome perspective 🥰 Last week I went away for a weekend city trip with my husband. It was during that time of the month when my anxiety is usually higher than normal. I had a panic attack while walking on the street. I clenched my husbands hand really hard and felt embarrassed if people saw me. I was happy to be in our hotel room. It is so courageous to feel the anxiety, take our space and time to tend to it and afterwards go about life again. It is a horrible feeling to be so overwhelmed. Luckily it always passes and we’re reminded that we are human and get to experience all of these emotions ❤ I’m happy that there is more openness about this nowadays, thank you so much for being a part of that.

[@ArtemisC.DAragon]

Thank you Morgan! I just loved this Vlogmas! Have a wonderful, wonderful Christmas!!!🤗📚🎄🧑‍🎄

[@Jenn_Garrison0505]

This makes me feel better

[@roseschrier3770]

Love laser shows! Fun video!🤗🎄📚

[@chronicallyplanty4259]

Awww we love you too Morgan!!!!! You truly bring such delight and beauty to so many people's days. In response to the lovely voicemail, I wanted to say that I also struggle with perfectionism, and constantly feel guilty for feeling like I'm never enough, or never doing enough. The past couple of weeks I've been trying to catch myself everytime I have a thought like that, or a feeling of guilt, and remind myself that I am doing nothing wrong, and I am enough exactly as I am. Thanks for sharing Tabitha!

[@ziggyhale]

Oh what a privilege to live during a time where Morgan comes to full vlogging glory during vlogmas time. I've missed that. And I have missed you too. So happy, so thankful, to see you more often lately. I hope you have the greatest time.

[@ginaferracini9375]

Hi Morgan 🤗 glad your feeling better. Lol you and Landon look like ya had fun. Awsom to see. Yes Vlog 17 wow always look forward to these vlogs. Aww how sweet about how you and Landon meeting.. very hot here top of Australia 🦘 ✨🎄🍒Thankyou ❤.

[@SavvySmiles11]

I have been looking forward to your vlogmas videos and I’ve been binging your previous videos 💕 Thank you so much for providing us such heartwarming content 💕 I’m so glad you’re feeling better. I really do appreciate you being vulnerable and opening up about it. It allows us not to feel so alone when we have those low days 💕

[@elliehamilton8285]

You'd be such a good daily Vlogger, I'm so appreciative and am now reliant on these videos every evening to feel and see snips of joy that you make Mo especially in the festive season 🌟 Ps love your outfit!! Sending hugs as per🤗

[@roseschrier3770]

Anxiety can relate💙

[@steffiristic]

My favorite bookstore has the book of the movie Wonka. You definitely inspired me to buy it ☺️ I'll watch the movie too

[@janmccann9471]

You and all the lovely people who have left voice messages, especially Tabitha’s today, give all of us inspiration and encouragement to be ourselves and to love being ourselves. Thank you Morgan!

[@BrittneeLJCoffman]

I haven’t been to Omsi since I was in middle school, and that brought back sooo many memories! 🥰

[@ashlynhale3369]

Oh my gosh I am a chemistry professor! How sweet! 🥰Also you have me so excited to go see Wonka because I have seen such mixed reviews, even though I was originally so excited to see it! 😊

[@paolacannavo4328]

Thank you for your videos so authentic. You make me feel part of a community where feelings and simple slow life are the most important things in this crazy world.

[@ericaenchanted]

You are AMAZING Morgan! Even when you are struggling and going through a hard time, you just being your sweet wonderful self during the highs and lows of life helps others relate, and that is uplifting too. ❤️

[@lilybrown4180]

I am very glad to hear you enjoyed Wonka. I am watching it tomorrow with my mother and I am looking forward to shedding some (or many) tears, haha!

[@Tamar.x]

You're such a sweet person Morgan!❤ you make so many people happy by just being your authentic self 🥰

[@myprettysunshine]

I actually teared up with the message in this video. Just what I needed to hear! Thank your Morgan for giving people this opportunity to share their messages with this community. We really aren't alone! And thank Morgan, you for all your videos that are making this season more comforting for a lot of us 💖 Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄

[@angelamarcinkevich9202]

The first photo of you and London was so cute , before I forget Happy Holiday Season and Merry Christmas & Happy 2024 to you both ❤🎅🎄

[@EmmaLou8424]

Thank you for the heartwarming message Tabitha. I needed to hear that today ❤ Sending love and hugs to all ❤

[@emmahall8510]

Wonka was amazing at the cinema, I can't wait for it to be released on dvd. 😊

[@lauraa1345]

I watched Wonka in the movies last week on Tuesday and I also liked it a lot! It is indeed a very magical and enchanting movie🥰
