Mary Christmas is a 2002 American Christmas movie written by Stanley M. Brooks and Betty G. Birney.
 It was directed by and stars John Schneider.
 In the movie Joel Wallace, Schneider's character, is a widower raising a daughter, Felice (Jenna Boyd).
 In her Christmas letter to Santa Claus, Felice wishes for a new mother for Christmas.
 The letter is intercepted by a local news producer who cancels reporter Mary Maloney's vacation and sends her to investigate the Wallace family as a human interest story.
 Most of the movie deals with Joel's searching for a new wife that will be Felice's mother.
 The ending takes a bit of a twist, though, when it turns out that Mary is Felice's birth mother who had given her up for adoption.
 The movie incorporates a little extra magic with "governor" Les Turner whom Felice thinks is Santa Claus.
