You really topped yourself on this one. I bet she cries every time she watches this video. I got a little choked up myself, this is the most Beautiful Tribute to Motherhood I have seen for a long time. I think even Billy Joel would be proud of what you did with his song. Great job Penn

[@Zepchic1111]

I cry every time I watch this video 🥺

[@joannasin2073]

We’re small

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

Thank you - I lost my wife to cancer this year and this tribute reminded me once more of how wonderful she was to our 4 children and me. Love what you are doing so just keep on going and never forget that the real rewards are right in front of you...unless it is a murder hornet of course :)

[@ryansenft3315]

I'm sorry for your loss man. It sounds like she was a wonderful wife, mother, and all-around person.

[@kimberlybahrs7165]

Sorry for loss

"It'll be 10 more years til she finally relaxes." Thanks for making moms everywhere smile!

[@lisanicholls6784]

Aww you guys!! Penn you are the sweetest, that song was just beautiful. I'd love to know Kim's reaction to this video.

[@annakatepollard2318]

I bet she cries, proper sobs for sure, probably can't watch it with a camera on her ❤❤❤

[@jamesmiller4487]

Adorable, simply adorable. (So adorable that Penn is forgiven for raising the bar so high for the rest of us!)

[@deniselashley4246]

I love when Penn says she will always do what's best for you two but she always a woman to me. It shows shes not "just a mom". In his eyes shes the woman he loves.❤🥰

[@nicolaiitchenko7610]

Perfect. Well done that man! What a WONDERFUL Mother's Day present. May the two of you have many, many more and the kids be beneficiaries of that collaboration...as we see they are.

[@kbee1981]

A beautiful tribute to a beautiful woman. I think this says so perfectly what many of us guys feel for our special ladies. Thanks, Penn, for being a voice for the sentiments of so many husbands around the world!

[@cesun1979]

I love your wife. She's amazing and hilarious and beautiful. Just so you know, this song made me cry. Because I have 5 kids. And sometimes it seems like a never ending battle. Your wife is amazing. Zero free time. Yep. But so many people forget that we're something other than moms. Before we were moms, we were ourselves. And somehow, she has managed to still be herself. I admire that. I get crap for still dyeing my hair crazy colors and dressing the way I do and it's like, "Let me have this one thing." Because that's how it feels! You can't go to the bathroom alone, can't shower alone, can't sleep alone, you're constantly on call! I have literally been in the same PJ pants and a sports bra for a week now.

[@07biggiofan]

Absolutely beautiful Mom and video! That should earn you some brownie points with Kim! Love you guys!

[@biblewomen77]

What a beautiful song! Gave me chills! I love your parody. Your wife looks like a model. Very photogenic. Beautiful video and song!

[@brotherandrew6227]

The title claims it is a parody, but it looks like a heartfelt tribute to his wife. Can't say I blame him, she is a pretty woman.

[@magnusfundal1970]

I think it counts as parody if you use the tune but changes the lyrics. We're stretching the definition, but I can't complain if it means we get songs like this. :)

[@kimmyann2820]

Pretty??? Maybe you should refine your YT researches. Much more depth to this than ''pretty". Ugh. Kim, you're pretty inside and out, btw.

[@tinydancer7426]

Hey! There is another parody waiting to happen. Pretty Woman. Take Penn! A one and a two ........

Nope, not a parody. As another poster commented, a beautiful tribute to your wife. Wow. This was just fantastic. Loved seeing all the photos of your family through the years. Honestly, this is a keepsake for you all.

[@Zepchic1111]

I play this song every time I need a good cry! It's so beautiful! Both my husbands & the fathers of my 4 children have passed away, 20 years apart, so in alot of ways I'm jealous that I couldn't have this with the men I married. But I have found love, but we don't have children, but he has helped me raise them like they were his, even my grouchy teenage girls 10+ years ago. I love your family & I am so happy to have found you this past year. I've laughed so much at almost all your videos. I'm pretty sure I've seen almost all of them. You guys are great!! Entertaining & fun! And then you come with the heart-felt stuff that brings a tear, but it's a good tear. A good cry is necessary at times, and so I watch this video on repeat. Thank you Kim, Penn, Lola & Penn Jr for your funny antics & showing life, real life, crazy & weird & messy & beautiful & everything in between. Thank you so much for the laughs & the happy tears ❤

[@fayhinkson6676]

This is so incredibly beautiful and clearly heartfelt.

[@pampondel6317]

Awww! I'M crying and this video isn't for me! Best Mother's Day gift ever, Penn! Well done!

[@yonis7249]

That was so beautiful, I almost felt embarrassed looking in on love so obviously deep and intimate.. Thank you for sharing your daily life with us, so we can see how a couple deeply in love lives, and how they parent their 2 children in today's world. I've never met you, but from where I sit, it seems to me that you are doing an amazing job. Keep it up! And please keep putting out these fantastic, fun videos!

[@ketigunia]

I watched when comments were disabled so I couldn’t comment but now I can I just want to say that this song is amazing well done penn amazing song. Also well done Kim you’re an amazing mum!

[@davebb36]

I cant wait to see the video she does for you on fathers day singing about what a fabulous Dad and husband you are working hard and making everyone laugh. You rock buddy !!!!

[@bubzilla6137]

You know, sometimes your videos bring tears to my eyes due to heavy laughter. This one, however, brought sentimental tears... Penn, you are an amazing husband, dad, and songwriter/singer. This is the best tribute any wife/mom could possibly ask for! Kim, you're truly an amazing wife and mother. You deserve this and although I wish you a happy mother's day, I don't want it to be secluded to one day. I hope every day brings you happiness! Great video guys, simply beautiful... 🙂😍😭🙂

[@stephanieobrien9178]

Wow! In all of these pictures you can truly see the love you two have for each other and your children. What a beautiful tribute to your bride for Mother's Day. Bravo, Penn!! (PS I need tissues!!)

[@rangerrhett8341]

damn. dude. I've been watching a boat load of your videos. loving them all. They make me laugh they make me feel and be aware of the present day. But sir, you have done your wife so much justice, so much honor. You have taken a wonderful Billy Joel song and dedicated to your wife.... that has been then for you, supported you, and shared with you all that you have made what you have created, totally wonderful. This one is the one that shares to the world what the Holderness Family is all about. I and I think even Billy Joel, would be shedding a tear in your celebrating just how much you appreciate your wife and your family. I continue to be amazed and I continue to admire all that you and your family do to entertain the world. Peace, happiness. and joy always be with you all.

[@clarkkent8830]

Penn you are truly blessed to have such a beautiful family.I've never married or fathered any children,but times like this make me regret it in the worst way.Kim has the most powerful maternal instinct i've ever seen (think face being clawed off in big chunks to protect her babies)and the nurturing/guidance skillsets of a teacher-den mother-nun.haters are always gonna hate,but i believe the love your family has manage to prosper and share with the rest of the world can and will humble even the hardest of hearts. HAPPY MOTHERS DAY HOLDERNESS TRIBE. P.S. I'll be at my mothers house this weekend doing everything i can to let her know just how much i love her and reminding her just how special and wonderful she is and secretly praying to god to please let her live forever.

[@pbkayakyer]

Yeah but you're Superman... it probably wouldn't work out well for your wife if you were married- you know with all the crime fighting and world saving you do, she probably wouldn't see you much.
