Congratulations ❤ I’m so proud of you! I’m celebrating 7 years clean from opiates on April 14th. One day at a time!

[@btrosper28]

No one deserves that trip more than you and momma Kelly! So excited for you🩷

[@PJ.229]

@btrosper28 What exactly has she done to deserve it?

[@FreelysLifeLessons]

[@truenorthliving_]

Happy belated birthday!! 🎉🎉

[@leayuh1652]

I would 1000% watch a crochet with me video because I used to crochet & I haven’t done it in SO LONG & you talking about it makes me wanna do it again 🤍

[@brooketesfaye]

yes to the crochet with me!!!!

[@SugarSweetBell]

Yes please

[@taneabrutus1860]

I am so glad you commented on this. this is EXACTLY how I feel

[@jerryterry9099]

Me too!!!

[@myopinion9259]

I'm so proud of you for many reasons!! I'm Mama Kelly's age and I've been watching since you took her trick or treating! So glad you're taking her to Bora Bora!💜

[@aaliyahjeffrey1973]

Yes babe there is a ring you can get that has a hook for the yarn to go through so it’s not constantly against your skin! It is a life saver🥰

[@twistedhearts96]

@25:50 yesss I would love to watch you do a crochet and chat video. Also, I can’t wait to be able to purchase a piece of your work from you ! I know that all of your art pieces were/will be made with lots of love 🙂❤️🥰 😊💚🤗🫶🏼🩷🫶🏼

[@ExpansiveReviews]

Seeing you happy makes me so elated! 🥰

[@gabbywade4587]

I'm only 37 seconds into the video and had to pause to tell you this, I've been watching you since vlogmas 2019 and seeing how far you've come is truly inspiring. I appreciate how open and honest you are about your struggles. Thank you for being so vulnerable about your weight loss, I know it has to be scary. You look so good physically, how are you feeling mentally? You are worth every opportunity that has come and will continue to come your way. I love you lots Samantha Jo!!

[@gabbywade4587]

Also, Mama Kelly and I share a birthday! Haha

[@suzej18]

I LOVE YOUR LONG VIDEOS!!!!!! OMG THIS LONG CONTENT WITH YOU IS JUST PERFECT, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT! But remember, always take your time and rest ❤ Because your health is important!

[@yani4645]

Of course I’d watch a crochet with me video! I had been thinking about learning to crochet for a little while and watching you do it made me finally start! I’ve made two little projects and it’s just so fun ✨ PS your new granny square bag is so cute

[@bellajuarez6757]

i genuinely get so excited everytime u post, i love u

[@gypsysaker9274]

One thing that helped me with the to do list guilt is by thinking about it as a running to do list. It never ends it’s just a list to get all the tasks out of my head into one spot ❤

[@georgia_blueland]

You inspire me so much. Im so happy I cant watch you even when it was 2018 and you were in that apartment and how far you have come has made me so happy. I cant belive the places your going and what your getting to do its so true to never give up.

[@sonyyyjay]

was watching another video and clicked off soooo fast!! love you Sam 💕 also.. congrats on Bora Bora, i would bring my mom as well!

[@HallieWalkington]

Lol same!!!!

[@PamelaNicole]

BRAND TRIP LETS GO WOOO!!!

[@millylarz]

Omg I had to pause the video right when you talked about taking your mom with you and that her b-day is 3/22, I started sobbing🥺. My mom's b-day was 3/22 and she passed away a little before her birthday so every year March is so hard for me, especially 3/22. Now I will think of you and your momma on that day and try to feel joy instead of sadness. I'm so glad y'all will get to go on that trip, much luv to you both❤!

[@kassandrab665]

Yes please sam please do crochet with me videos. I’m always looking for a video to listen to while I’m crocheting. I’m crocheting while watching all of your videos anyway lol even right now! I also have adhd and have discovered crocheting over the past 2 years and have taught myself as well through KZbin. It’s so much fun! And I think the reason I haven’t dropped this hobby is because there’s always something new and exciting I find a pattern for that I can crochet! Love you sam! So happy for you for your trip to Bora Bora with Momma Kelly. I’m following all of your updates on insta and you are glowing!!! Much love for you guys ❤❤❤

[@Gem.Mine.]

GIRLLLLIEEEEE I never really leave KZbin comments, but I've watched your content for a little while and dude, I am crocheting or knitting every time I tune in to you. It makes me SO HAPPY to see you picking up crochet. The part where you were talking about the quiet that working with your hands brings your brain is a HUGE part of why I do it, too. So relatable. Welcome to the crochet community!!! Ps, I would totally crochet along with you in a future video.

[@christinahaythorne3633]

Definitely would love a chatty crocheting vlog! The blanket looks beautiful!

[@mckennabennett3643]

Thank you for always being yourself, I love you so much!! Thank you for allowing me to feel comfy in my own skin💕

[@AH-id7dz]

This is the best SamJo era and I am here for it! You are radiating and I'm so thrilled for all of it!

[@Afellowgremlin1]

Samantha’s videos are literally me weekly routine and I love it

[@amystone6511]

I love the bag you made!!! The colors, the design GORGEOUS 😍

[@TheChronicExplorer]

you go girl! as a new disabled creator you gave the pep talk i needed! I actually struggle with tik tok because of the hate comments but im going to give it another go! youre the best!

[@megano9598]

truly sam is just so kind and wholesome and hard-working, she really deserves everything she’s gotten so far! we’re proud of you girlie❤

[@lv9707]

you look radiant, and genuinely happy

[@samthegoblinchild1937]

Honestly I want either an unedited crochet vid or a tiktok or insta live! I’m crocheting a sweater rn!

[@melodynicole87]

You just seem so in your element these days, and I absolutely love it. You're a little ray of sunshine.

[@twistedhearts96]

AHHH NOOO WAYYYY… SAMANTHA JO & MOMMA KELLY TAKE ON BORA BORA !!!!

[@rainie9801]

So excited for you❤

[@HannahMakesItRain]

Omg it’s so silly and small but you HAVE to go to the strawberry festival outside of tampa! It’s so cute and u can get TONS of strawberries in pallets for so cheap. U can wash and freeze them and they’ll last for months. You have to get strawberry short cake and a strawberry milkshake hehe it super small but so cute. It’s pretty busy but if u go on a week day it should be slower. I think you can buy tix online or back in the day you could buy tix at any tampa/ st.Pete Publix ❤🍓🍰. They have cute petty zoos, carnival games and rides. And they have different country singers every night you can buy tix to

[@alexagraham5562]

I’m so happy for you I hope you and your mom have a safe and blessed trip and have an amazing time I also really enjoyed this video and I really enjoy all of your videos and your crocheting is amazing and so cute I’d love to see more

[@bigbadbarbra]

I loved listening to you talk about crotchet and what it means to you 💓

[@sandratiger8815]

My aunt recently got diagnosed with terminal cancer and she crochet blankets for me just like those from when I was born until I got my last one from her a few years ago. They're my comfort objects and I would love love love to order a blanket from you since the one I have now is starting to fall apart.

[@tashintomorrowland]

Samantha Jo I am vehemently against influencer trips and usually block influencers while they’re on them but I am genuinely so happy for you ❤ you (and mama Kelly) deserve to be pampered and spoiled! I have been following you since your Wisconsin days and it’s been so fun to see your growth 🩷

[@breleighcruz]

I use KT athletic tape to protect the spots that I’m prone to callousing from crochet. You can cut it to the size you need.

[@ladyandashley76]

Omg please please please sell those bags!! I LOVE it!!❤❤❤

[@katelynnmassey3303]

Samantha Joevideo as soon as my lunch break started what a win! 🤩

[@allydavis708]

a crochet with me video is the best idea i have ever heard

[@weasleyheyomusica]

please do the long crochet video as long as you don't feel like you need to force anything. ENJOY YOUR HOBBY especially if its personal

[@autumnnorman3858]

I LOVE YOU SAMANTHA!!!!! YOUR VIDEOS TRULY INSPIRE ME

[@caitlincathleen.ann26]

SAMANTHA, i just wanted to say that I have a few allergies like gluten, dairy, tomatoes, and eggs.... should i prolly not eat those things? yeah but who cares. I wanted to say that if youre feeling like gluten hurts your stomach, it could actually be eggs. eggs are in pasta, bread, baked goods and sometimes you think youre allergic to gluten but youre not. I happen to be allergic to both but specifically egg yolk so i can have the whites. idk just something to think about.

[@twistedhearts96]

Been waiting for this !!! Whatever it is I’m just soo happy for you! ILYG 🫶🏼

[@kaytlynnmoore2917]

YES TO THE CROCHET VLOGGG!! im a new stay at home mom and i’ve crocheted my whole life but just recently picked it up again! love that we’re finding new hobbies for ourselves. 🩷🩷

[@Nogirl101]

Samantha! See you from when you lived at your mom's to your 1st apartment and moving states, you've grown so much and I'm so happy I've been along for the journey! I remember the makeup tutorials and the storytimes and I am genuinely happy to see this full circle moment. Seeing the insta post from you and momma Kelly in Bora Bora is so fun and I hope to see a vlog of it when you get back! 💙

[@maddie4190]

I remember a while ago, you and Gerald, breaking up, and I was so sad for you too, because you seemed like a great pair. I don’t know how long you guys have been back together because you’re not getting recommended on my subscription feed for some reason, but I love hearing that you two are back. You’re such a great duo.

[@yoanalara1315]

Dude I can see the difference! You’re so beautiful in and out! And congrats to you and mama Kelly pray you guys have a wonderful, blissful, & amazing trip!

[@kaileydeal7830]

they have finger covers for sewing you can use sam!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@sydsvids]

most deserving !! I hope u guys are having the best time

[@alexisg3216]

I just found your KZbin recently and have been binge watching your videos. You are just so amazing in every way - a truly genuine person and just such a ray of sunshine!! ❤

[@XoAbigailXo]

I’m so so grateful I’ve gotten to watch you grow and heal! I’m so so excited for you and can’t wait for the Vlogs!!!!

[@ChiChi-ss1gg]

Soooo excited for you and Momma Kelly! Well deserved 👏🏼

[@cherronjoejade]

Hey Samantha! I recommend you try different things for your finger when crocheting to make sure you find what works best for you. I've tried different styles of crocheting rings, paper tape, the sleeves you use for corns on your toes, band aids, and finally I've found kinesiology tape works best for me. I cut it in strips to cover what I need and it peels off easily and works for me. Good Luck! Also, for you to be a newbie crocheter, you're doing an AWESOME JOB!

[@KrstnaSchroeder]

dont worry about putting something on your finger, in time you wont hit your finger anymore. i been crocheting and knitting for over a decade now.

[@karissakline6765]

Omg I need a vacation and can’t wait for you to take us to Bora Bora! You deserve it, beautiful! 🎉

[@remiwood7614]

YOU ARE SO PRETTY!! you’re so inspirational. i love you, your home, your videos, your cats, your excitement, your passion and youre personality! i started watching you vlogmas 2023! and since then ive always looked forward to your videos. I HOPE BALI IS GONNA BE GOOD/ GOING GOOD! i will 100% watch a crochet video. LOVE YOU KEEP GOING!

[@peterguardino4403]

26:10 I would love a crochet and chat video! I also cannot wait until you start selling your pieces!! I’ll be 100% buying one of them

[@christinapetersen5311]

Flour won’t thicken until it comes to a boil. And you never want to boil anything with cheese it will curdle. You could take some of the liquid out and thicken it in the stove with flour, then add it back or just use corn starch next time.

[@gracemartinie881]

i would love a crochet with me video making that blanket because I’m obsessed!

[@amandaw9074]

Wow I clicked so quick! Perfect timing because I’m on break at work❤ love seeing your journey!

[@blondie090277]

Sam, even sick you are radiant! I love to see you so happy, and the joy that crocheting brings to you shows so much! My daughter loves to crochet, and I would love to know where you had the tags made so that I can have some made for her creations. Could you please share that link with us? ❤

[@baileynothstine3362]

Yes!! I would love crocheting videos! I’m working on granny squares right now to make a bag!

[@JasmineWilliams-zy2ty]

This is such a positive & uplifting video. I literally cried with you talking ab going to BoraBora with Momma Kelly. There’s not a single creator I can think of that’s more deserving of an opportunity like that! Also, LOVE that yellow bag & would totally buy to use in the Spring/Summer if that’s something you decided to sell🩷

[@ScarletDona]

[@carolinahuerta4740]

Never been this early!! I love you Samantha!!💕💕💕

[@triptripp1873]

Man I also love skiing, after a year of trying it out, I decided to buy my own skis. Not new ones ofc, but in pretty good condition I must say. Being on the top of a snowy mountain, learning proper ski technique, overcoming my fear of heights, it's all a very rewarding experience.

[@sarahcollins9845]

I specifically look for videos of you crocheting because I want to learn so bad!! I’m having a baby boy in September and I so badly want to learn how to make him little sweaters!

[@Kaystory]

Yes queen!!! I’m so happy that y’all are going on this trip together 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 happy early birthday mama! ❤❤❤❤ I’m so stoked for you two! Good work girly

[@meadowsandmountain]

Girl that blanket is amazing!!!!! I am so happy for you that you found a hobby you really enjoy!! 😍

[@katherineknight5845]

I love hearing you talk about crochet! I started in 2021 and i feel the same way..my brain actually stops running when I crochet and its beautiful ❤ selling hand made pieces is a lot of fun too

[@alliekate_123]

Seeing you genuinely happy and thriving makes me so freaking happy. 🥹 you deserve it Sam. We are so proud of you and love you! 🫶🏼

[@AinslieGardner]

go to hobby lobby for finger grippy things for crocheting! they even make them with slots for nails

[@mulabarbie4366]

The purse is so cute! I’d be so interested in buying one!!

[@jackiemonnig3713]

Omg obsessed with that blanket & purse!! Ur so talented all around! U can sing, crochet, KZbinr, & so much more❤

[@lunaisawitch]

Omg I love your crochet projects u have done, the bag is absolutely adorable 🥹💗

[@blaire23]

I would definitely watch an hour long crochet with me video. I crochet as well and I'm making an alien afghan!

[@Marisol.Melendez]

Omg I feel that!!! I lost a little over 100 pounds in the last year and a half and I still see myself as what I was before and I keep buying bigger clothes. I got an extra large/large and it was big went back and tried on a medium/small and it fit perfect. Crazy I don’t see the changes but I definitely feel them

[@kristiew4240]

Holy shit Bora Bora!!!!! Soooo excited for you!!!

[@charitygarrett5588]

24:43 that blanket is so beautiful

[@aliyahdinmcfee5857]

I love seeing you crochet!! Is your blanket just a large granny square with a single stitch border?

[@karissawilliams8373]

You are an inspiration in my world and I am so thankful to be able to watch you achieve your goals.

[@lindyscotland]

You're an actual pro at crocheting! Bravo!! ❤

[@marilynx4841]

You can use a thimble to protect your fingers during crocheting. It's the same thing people use to protect their fingers while sewing.

[@maryhughes5086]

So proud of you for dropping sizes! I’m finally dropping sizes myself and it is the greatest feeling ever. I can’t wait for the rollercoaster vlogs🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@kimberleeduncan6143]

You are such an inspiration to people of all ages! You are beautiful inside and out! I’m so happy to have found your channel. I’ve watched you for almost 2 years and you are amazing. So happy for you in this journey, and I’m so glad you rose above the haters aka jealous people. Keep on being you and living your best life sweet girl. ❤😊

[@funeralpaw]
