I worked in a family homeless shelter for 15 years. Sometimes, it was this emotional to move people into shelter apartments. The relief of having a safe, private, dignified place to live is palpable.
I have spent over 80% of my life in an apartment. Those few years where I was lucky enough to live in a house were truly wonderful. Super happy for these kids and the mom that worked so hard to obtain such a lovely memory factory.
My whole life I lived in a house and now I choose to live in a 800sq ft condo so reading your comment really made me realize more how different two lives can be!
I wish they would teach money management classes in school , how to use credit cards, how to build credit, etc. I would pay for these classes still today and attend them with my kids. Been working my whole Life And haven’t obtained this.
yeah, I heard that, so heartfelt and precious. I could tell she was trying so hard to keep it together when the big reveal was about to happen. You know this means the world to all of them
I’m sitting here crying. Im a single mom to three kids as well, two boys and a girl. This is the goal right here, a house for your kids to grow up in. I know this woman worked her ass off to make this happen I’m so happy for her and her children.
I liked that after the boys got over their initial excitement they both came over to hug mom. From the video they all seem like great kids. Very few things in life pay off like that it's so nice to see a family this happy.
I can't wait to do this for my son. In two months I'll have been raising him on my own for almost 8 years. We day dream about the house we want, and holy shit does he have expensive taste. He wants at least four pillars.
Well the minimum would need four pillars or it won't stand! Lol For real, I hope for both of you to make your dream come true with as much pillars as possible!
Damn makes me realize some extra privilege I’ve had in life, but that is a nice ass house, no back neighbors too. But teach this girl how locks work that was some buildups
You know it’s true. The nice thing though was everyone was patient and no one shoved her out of the way to do it for her. They let her try till she did it.
If you were a multimillionaire, screw fancy cars and boats. I'd be an a anonymous lender to help single mothers buy homes. Those babies were so excited, made me cry.
If you've shared a small cramped room with multiple siblings then you can't help but weep watching this. Not knowing their exact story in the video, but when you finally secure your own place for your family it's an amazing feeling. When you give children a place of safety it's an unmatched experience.
Damn. This should be within every family’s reach, smh. No one should have to dream about having a house of their own. Praying all our day will come too one day! Over fucking joyed for this family though, got me all emotional
I’m over here bawling my eyes out. I wasn’t expecting this video to affect me like that, but the raw emotion in the moms voice and the kids tears… it hit me hard. I’ve grown up in a tiny, cramped 3-bedroom apartment, and this was the dream I would have every day that one day my parents would finally have enough money to give us a proper house, with a proper yard, and an actual full kitchen…
Anyone who sneers at typical American suburbs and the mass produced houses that fill them should be forced to watch this video. The tears of joy and the leaps of happiness by those kids are a lovely testament to how important housing is. Hooray for that family! May that house be a home where those people find security, comfort and peace.
Can't help but be moved by the joy this video brings. It also reminds me of how the most stressful part of being a realtor was getting in a damn house. Nothing worse than a whole lot of people watching you trying to unlock and open the door, lol!
So many things we often take for granted. They just got a home. Like, for reals. I don't know their story, but to finally have a place you can say is yours. That feeling of finally being able to be you, no strings attached, no face you have to put on for others. That freedom to just BE is remarkable.
I grew up in a 3bd, 2 bath house that my dad built back in the 80s. I've since moved out. Spent the past almost decade apartment hopping due to financial issues. I really hope I can have a moment like this with my wife and daughter before I die.
From what it sounds like she's working on her own. How tf she managed to put a down payment on a (at least) four bedroom house I have no fucking idea, especially in this economy.
Having a secure base , is absolutely crucial to development and well being. Not having that takes a serious toll on you. This is a beautiful , happy moment. <3
Not too many posts in this sub actually fulfil the make me smile promise, but man did this one pay dividends. Im so genuinely happy for them - this is pure joy.
So happy for them. I lived with an extended side of the family for almost half of my life. My traumatic experiences where formed there. Leaving that house was liberating. Having your own home makes a world of difference. I hope the best for this family.
How can I get connected with this new homeowner and this Family. I remember the first home my fiancé and I mortgaged, we were broke for months after that… A wedding. We took on a lot of risk.
Does everything have to be for the world to see? What happened to special moments being private. This whole “look at what I’ve done” crap is stupid. Everyone wants to win social media points these day!
If you entered a new house for your family by surprise while your mother is filming, is your first thought to take off your shoes at the door? If so, you should think more deeply about the things you do and why.
That was emotional and unforgettable. Fantastic post
They look so humble and kind! I'd love to be their neighbor
I worked in a family homeless shelter for 15 years. Sometimes, it was this emotional to move people into shelter apartments. The relief of having a safe, private, dignified place to live is palpable.
I had a good cry from it. It was definitely a beautiful share
What a mom....
Go mom!
I have spent over 80% of my life in an apartment. Those few years where I was lucky enough to live in a house were truly wonderful. Super happy for these kids and the mom that worked so hard to obtain such a lovely memory factory.

They’re gonna be prancing through the house like that for months. So good
I am 52, have a 12 year old. We have been renters and are finally moving into our own home December 14. We can’t wait!
So happy for this family. I hope they make many happy memories in their new beautiful house
I wish they would teach money management classes in school , how to use credit cards, how to build credit, etc. I would pay for these classes still today and attend them with my kids. Been working my whole Life And haven’t obtained this.
I’m more impressed that she hid the entire house buying process
Must’ve sent them away to grandmas or something. Got all their stuff moved too.
And that she had keys for the "open house"
“I got y’all” I mean… is there a heart melting emoji cause I need one.
yeah, I heard that, so heartfelt and precious. I could tell she was trying so hard to keep it together when the big reveal was about to happen. You know this means the world to all of them
Yeah i felt that
Dang it, this is a make-my-day kinda video! You rock, Mom! Love the pure joy in the kids faces!! Happy tears indeed!!
im the only one crying in the club rn
These kids have just the right amount of kid left in them to truly enjoy this home with their mom.
Ahhh, man. This brought tears to my eyes. So happy for this family.
Definitely making me feel grateful for what I have right now.
What a beautiful rollercoaster of the human emotional spectrum.

This video made my year! The excitement and tears of joy melted my heart. Exactly what I needed today.
The way the boys just lost their cool! So happy for them!
Man I love it, but y’all got make me smile and make me cry mixed up.
Yay!
Agreed!
This is awesome, that mom is a rockstar. That AI voice can burn in hell though
I can't wait to do this for my son. In two months I'll have been raising him on my own for almost 8 years. We day dream about the house we want, and holy shit does he have expensive taste. He wants at least four pillars.

Oh my god. I did NOT read “back” as back and still feel like an asshole.
Made me smile and tear up a bit. Good for them!
This is the American dream. What a great mom and great kids. This is the future that brings me comfort in this crazy world.
So much room for activities!
Everyone deserves this
That's a nice ass house!
Way to go, Mom!!!
Congratulations!!!! What awesome kids you have !!! I wish you all the best!!!!
If you were a multimillionaire, screw fancy cars and boats. I'd be an a anonymous lender to help single mothers buy homes. Those babies were so excited, made me cry.
Videos like this make me so happy! Way to go mom!

It was the "welcome home" for me. Due to some childhood stuff, I struggled to feel at home until a couple of years ago. In my 30s.
Loved the kids reaction and cried too. Good job mom
The kids look so happy!
Their happiness is so palpable! I love this!

My issue is they are going to need 4 cars. Having a home is amazing. American suburban planning is shit.
I get your sentiment, but mass produced houses often cost just as much if not more than existing housing.
so so happy for them ❤️ kinda jealous too, good jealous though
Yeah that house is nice af!
What a queen!! So happy and proud of you! Much love from across the ocean!!
Good job mom ❤️
I love this!! Wtg mom!! Warms my heart ❤️
Love how the kiddos kept coming back together or looking in on each other. They’re a true pack. Beautiful to see.
Absolutely beautiful. I’m so happy for them!!
Mama worked her ass off!
Well now we have to send them housewarming gifts!
This is just… wow… makes me so happy
I am so very happy for you and your family Live long and free
Can't help but be moved by the joy this video brings. It also reminds me of how the most stressful part of being a realtor was getting in a damn house. Nothing worse than a whole lot of people watching you trying to unlock and open the door, lol!
Congratulations. Now start divvying up the chores!
Beautiful
This video brings me to tears. What happiness man!! It really warms my heart.
I’m so happy for those kids.
This Mom is the best!
This sub always lives up to it name
Very nice kids. Super sweet and just nice kids.
Congrats to you and your blessed family!!! ❤️
this made my day
My god. This is BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the love and admiration they have for one another! Nothing but the best for that family!
I want this for everybody.
This is my dream every night. I wished I could have done more for my kids
Awesome
Kids are blessed to have a dedicated mom and she's blessed to have them to support and thrive...good luck to them.
Dam it, I hate it when Reddit makes me cry, great job mom!!!!!!!!!
Congratulations 🍾…..much love to you and your kids ♥️.
Best video of the month! Congratulations!
😭
This is really beautiful. Sweet kids. They deserve all the happiness
I’m so happy for y’all!!!!! Making me bawl my face off!
This warms my heart :)
I happily shed some happy tears! Love this!!!
Good job momma!!
Congratulations!!!! That’s amazing!!!!
I too, would one day like to own a home. Congrats to the lovely family. Everyone deserves this.
That's an awesome feeling and I'm so glad they're so excited about it!
Anybody asking what a good parent looks like, THIS☝️
This is so awesome. The kids seem so nice, loving and respectful of each other. Love this! Where can I donate.
This house is huge
Who’s cutting onions?!

How freaking awesome. Good job momma Bear. Show em what hard work can do!! Love stuff like this. 🥰
I grew up in a 3bd, 2 bath house that my dad built back in the 80s. I've since moved out. Spent the past almost decade apartment hopping due to financial issues. I really hope I can have a moment like this with my wife and daughter before I die.
A comfy home is something many people take for granted. I’m so happy that they’re happy.
Yoooo when she said “I got y’all”
I wanna do this for my mom within the next 5 years. I’m trying.
And such a gorgeous house! Wishing them all many, many years of wonderful memories. Hope mom sees the house filled with grandkids running around.
Well done lady well done. This is so awesome I hope they really love it there.
Of all the words that were uttered in this video, the mom saying "I got ya'll" is the one that hits me the most.
Fucking awesome
Made me cry.
[удалено]
Well… I cried.
My daughter will react the same way... I am working too...
Someday... Two boys one girl too.. Someday. 🥰
This made me so happy
Amazing y'all.
Beautiful 😍
Amazing!! W Parent, we need more people like this in the world. Does anybody know how mom did this? Taking notes for my future kids
I just saw a sad video and this made me so happy the joy y’all had radiated out through the video I hope you have a great time in your new house
What an impressive mom :)
Absolutely a gem of a video. I teared up instantly
What a happy day for all of them! Congratulations!!!
From what it sounds like she's working on her own. How tf she managed to put a down payment on a (at least) four bedroom house I have no fucking idea, especially in this economy.
Same. We have a 1700 sqft ranch that was $136k… in 1999. It’s listing on Zillow for $304K.
This is so beautiful. So happy for them. Way to go mom, you did the damn thang!
They’re so happy!!! I love this!!
Taking care of your family is the best feeling in the world.
The moms sweet, happy laugh at the end really tied up that video nicely. Just beautiful.
So happy for you guys enjoy it and make wonderful memories together :)
Having a secure base , is absolutely crucial to development and well being. Not having that takes a serious toll on you. This is a beautiful , happy moment. <3
Shut up I'm not crying you are 😭
Beautiful😊❤️
So lovely
This made me cry 🥲
Thank you!! I just let the tears flow this time. Beautiful
That’s beautiful
Congratulations Mom 😘
Congratulations!!!!!! This is amazing. You are a wonderful mom! God bless you.
Damn that's beautiful ❤
This is awesome
Great to see people so happy. The kids are overjoyed with their new home and mom is so happy to provide for her kids.
I've been homeless for more than 3 years thanks to a long list of health conditions and life circumstances.
Not too many posts in this sub actually fulfil the make me smile promise, but man did this one pay dividends. Im so genuinely happy for them - this is pure joy.
So happy for them. I lived with an extended side of the family for almost half of my life. My traumatic experiences where formed there. Leaving that house was liberating. Having your own home makes a world of difference. I hope the best for this family.
Fuck yeah. This is the positive shit I need on a Wednesday!
Well this made me incredibly happy! Good for that family!
This such beautiful video, thanks for being great mom
That made me cry and smile. Thanks.
As an expert in non-verbal communication, I could safely say they are happy.
That was so great. May the blessings keep coming :)
Thank you so much for posting. Great job and perseverance. You are a great role model for your kids. Enjoy!
What an amazing feeling that must be for the mom, to see her kids so happy with their new home
So sweet! What a beautiful home, so much light and a great side garden. I hope they make lots of happy memories there.
This is beautiful
A mother will do anything to see her kids this happy
Im not crying. No no, I must've just got something in my eyes.
I love this so much. Unbridled joy! W
This isn’t making me smile this is making me cry.
Bet it’s not California that shit impossible. Congrats to her tho hard work pays off in the end.
try Miami…
🎉So happy for you guys 🎉 love you Mom Great job😎
I love this. Happy kids, happy mom, and a happy home.
This is beautiful, that feeling moving out of an apartment into an actual homes. It’s a feeling you really can’t forget.
How can I get connected with this new homeowner and this Family. I remember the first home my fiancé and I mortgaged, we were broke for months after that… A wedding. We took on a lot of risk.
True, they don’t call it being house-poor for nothing.
maybe look at the tik tok handle on the video and send them a message instead of trying to farm karma on reddit by sending out a hollow intention
This. This right here needs more upvotes. It made me cry.
I smell onion
I’m not crying, you’re crying! 😭
I’m not saying a generic line people always say, you are!
Americans,why you wearing your shoes on the carpet in a brand new house?
‘We need the video without sound’ bitch turn down the volume lol like mute the shit hahaha
What do you do for work?
Does everything have to be for the world to see? What happened to special moments being private. This whole “look at what I’ve done” crap is stupid. Everyone wants to win social media points these day!
Then whining about it being posted is equally pointless.
If you ever got to the part where they went inside the house, please let me know what happens next, thank you.
That 40 seconds was torturous.
Who wears shoes inside?
If you entered a new house for your family by surprise while your mother is filming, is your first thought to take off your shoes at the door? If so, you should think more deeply about the things you do and why.
Congratulations to all!!
I really love these videos! 💚
Nice house 👌👍
BEST video of the year!!!!
I am so happy for you and your family. May you be happy, may you be healthy, may you be well.
Best thing I’ve ever watched on Reddit!
May God bless you, your family and the family of the person reading this! ❤️😊👏
Made me cry. Thanks for sharing ~
Thats awesome such a great house.
WOOHOO!!!!
