A pair of siblings who thought they were heading to their single mom's friend's home for a surprise birthday couldn’t contain their excitement when they discovered their own possessions and realized she had purchased their dream home. Hard-working mom Melanie has always put her children first, moving five hours across Texas from Wichita Falls to Houston in 2018 to pick up work. With no friends or family in Houston, Melanie later admitted that she struggled to make ends meet as she worked as a respiratory therapist at a local children's hospital for around two years. But in early 2020, the determined mom made a huge call to help put her family on a stronger financial footing. As the pandemic was hitting New York, the area was in desperate need of respiratory experts and medical staff. So Melanie drove to Oklahoma to drop her children off with their grandparents, accepted a FEMA-funded position in New York, and headed to what was, at the time, seen as the epicenter of the virus in America. The 33-year-old said she had nearly tripled her pay in the high-risk role, working 23 days without a break, and then taking just one day off a week for the rest of her three-month position. Having then returned to Texas, Melanie worked to tackle the virus in San Antonio, during which time her improved financial position meant she could sign the papers on a new-build home for her and her children, Zachary and Kairi.

So sweet when the little girl says 'you're the best mom ever!' This mom will never forget this day.

[@beatricemarquez5861]

Congratulations! So very happy for you and your family!

[@ktreolo]

A 61 year old woman in Virginia is REALLY proud of you! Your family is beautiful. Way to go, Mom.

[@jmg999]

Listening to her talk about wanting her kids to be safe and saying that her son had been there through a lot, it gave the impression that she was coming from an abusive marriage. I really hope that this family is safe in their home, and it's awesome to see a single-mother be able to provide for her children what she wants them to have in life, especially coming from a potentially dangerous and harmful situation. That's not an easy thing to do, and it's easy to see what makes Melanie a really tremendous mother.

[@mariestreeting4213]

I think your right, it does sound like it was an abusive marriage but I wonder if putting this on KZbin and telling everyone where they live is a good idea. Just a thought 🥰

[@agl5132]

Or it could be that going down to only one income meant they may have had to live in a rougher neighborhood. Her son my have felt he needed to be the man of the house and was worrying about his mom. Her ex may have stopped paying support. Many men refuse to realize their responsibility and take it out on the wife financially. To all those men who do step up to their obligations I applaud you. This woman risked her health during the pandemic. These children know they are loved. ❤️👏🏽👏🏼

[@broadwaybaby348]

Thank you Mom for coming to NYC and helping take care of us. Those days were so hard and you're a hero.❤

[@HappilyOfficial]

👏👏👏

[@beatricev.7783]

A 59 y.o woman just letting you know how proud I am of you & I don't even know you. You are amazing & beautiful inside & out. Your blessings are just begining. Trust me, I know.

[@mandybradley3079]

God bless her. She works hard. No wanting government to give her free stuff. I only have respect for this kind of person.

[@fluffychelu]

When the Son figured it out!!!❤

[@jonijohnston1688]

This video had me cryin' happy tears...it takes a special person to have the guts to nurse elsewhere and work to give your children a better life...such a beautiful home 🏡 You are such a wonderful Mother! Hope you had a great Mother's Day 💕

[@TheSharron]

What a wonderful mom…crying happy tears for them❤❤❤

[@SoberOKMoments]

It took amazing courage on her part to work in NYC during that early time of Covid. I am so proud of her and what she has done for her children and for herself. I salute you!

[@TiffTALKS22]

This is the SWEETEST thing!!

[@carriebradley7634]

I wish all young people could see this! This is a beautiful example of the human condition. The path to that moment of unlocking that front door was a "brutal" one. It took courage, dedication, HARD work, faith, tenacity, and self respect! Bravo mom! You are a true example to all! May God continue to walk with you, give you strength and bless you and your beautiful children! Well done ..... You EARNED it!!!

[@ls-kk4pq]

A beautiful moment to watch on KZbin. This is one of the good things about KZbin.

[@tamiami69]

I’m sooo happy for the 3 of you!! You all deserve the happiest of lives possible. May you all be blessed each and every day. I have tears for your happiness. Way to go sweetheart. You are a wonderful amazing woman and a fantastic mother. Those children are going to forever be by your side and the love and respect they have for you will fill your heart for eternity. ❤

[@gdhaney136]

You go Mama!! You made a core lifetime memory for all three of you by work and sacrifice. I don't even know you and I'm proud of you and sharing the planet with you.

[@frogkisser]

I'm a 55 yr old Momma in Texas, so proud of you Momma!!! You Ma'am have got this!

[@0230Raveena]

This is so beautiful. This is why you never envy or judge someone else without know how hard they work to get there or what they had to endure. (Being away from her babies for so long). The kids will be stronger one day because their mom did it on her own for them.

[@katherinehamilton2147]

Moms are BOSSES!

[@cleoc1105]

This had me tearing up. 😢😢 Good job, mom. I pray that God continues to bless you and your kids. 🙏🏾🥰

[@AshantiSoFly]

Girl I’m in tears with you❤

[@sunseeker8457]

"You had me at 1:28" It's called being a good mom! You go girl. This is what moms and dads do when being a good parent. This is why we have these big, pain the ass, cute, annoying kids in the first place. Being a parent is a full time 24/7 job. The younger they are. The harder it is. Being away from my kids when they were young like yours. Ripped my heart out. And I couldn't wait to leave work everyday to see them. And moving / upping your kids roots and moving somewhere different where they don't know anyone is huge. New friends, school etc. Must be hard as hell. But watching this video. You did good mamma bear!

[@catcvbvbbxkzjcgl]

Your son took his shoes off when entering your new house..thats a good sign..

[@OllieRamone]

I am sobbing so much. I’m so happy for them 😀

[@brandyjohn]

Congratulations, you're a great mom with two beautiful and amazing kids. You're also my neighbor. I, too, live in Montgomery County, and I love it. God bless you and your family 🌹💝🕊

[@sharonburton9663]

Wonderful example of a mom

[@dcinpa1134]

And let us not forget the part that Grandma and Grandpa played in this. Well done to both of you as well!

[@mandisamagubane603]

Well done mom so proud of you congratulations on your new house GOD be with you all❤🎉🎉🎉

[@larryg.9187]

... Watching this on Mother's Day make's it even more tugging at my heart 💙 👨‍❤️‍👨 💕 💖 ...

[@traci635]

It's extremely hard for single parents, particularly mom's to provide nice, safe housing for their children. What a wonderful story❤

[@MadsWorld34]

i am so proud of you. you just proved to me there are still good parents out there. i had almost given up hope there was any left.

[@tommarks3726]

You done good, beautiful. The kids' reactions were hilarious. You have raised beautiful, sweet and respectful children. They emulate what they see, and they will become respectful and caring adults some day, just like you are. I wish you continued blessings, and I am sure you won't be single for long. Oh and thank you for the medical work you did during pandemic.

[@paulready8897]

Very beautiful family. Amazing and strong lady.

[@Brwngrltrvls]

I'm NOT cutting onions, I'm full-blown crying!!!! I'm so excited for your family, and I pray that God continuously blesses you!

[@debbiebalnaves4842]

You did it ! Be proud of yourself ! I am showing this to my daughter,she going through a divorce. She is having doubts and worried. My husband and I are helping when needed . I know things will get better and that she can accomplish anything she wants 😊

[@Crebeccas]

I have seen so many inspirational, struggles to triumph videos throughout the years but this one truly truly captured my heart. I finally understand now how perfect strangers can comment “So proud of you”. Congratulations for raising such beautiful children, a beautiful home, and building such a beautiful life for your family. Truly inspirational.

[@Pntngbrn]

So happy for them. And kids really do know sacrifice!

[@poodlegirl55]

You didn't just work hard, that took real courage. While most of us could only focus on hiding from Covid you went and met it head on.

[@Falcon204]

Those kids have an awesome and amazing mommy! Congratulations to you all. Definitely had tears of joy running down my face when I watched this.
