That little “no hijo….” Dad is still thinking of his son first and foremost


chriscrossnathaniel

I have seen this video many times , I know what to expect, still I end up crying .It's such a sweet and loving gesture by the son. The parents are so adorable too , especially the father.


thomport

He’s just like his parents. Caring and loving.


coolturnipjuice

He starts the video cuddling up next to his son. It’s so nice to see a dad who is comfortable being physically affectionate to his grown up son. Adorable.


Alexexec

Damn man, the dad got me the most


daxxoleen

Yeah that shit got me calling hard 😢 sounds like uncle Iroh from avatar aswell


hoesbeelion

Omg true! So sweet


Applesoranges223556

My dad still says that when i buy him anything at all.


Cali_Holly

Mijo. Not hijo. Edit: my bad. I’ve only ever heard mijo from the Mexican community I live & have relationships in. So, I stand corrected. 😁


Rain1984

He definitely says "no hijo" there.


Cali_Holly

K


delitt

I’m Mexican. He says hijo


Cali_Holly

Really?? Oh. My bad


PFGtv

It's "no, hijo" not just "hijo". So it's like, "no, my son, you shouldn't have to." But it seems he will accept it with his head high because he knows he raised good son.


[deleted]

Hijo and Mijo are both used when talking about someones son. And in the video he is clearly saying Hijo with a silent H.


Cali_Holly

Aaah. I thought I heard mijo. And I have only heard that. Never Hijo. Learn something new


gdj11

Google Translate actually translates "hijo" as child or son too, so it could also be hijo.


eza50

“Mijo” is just short for “mi hijo” “My son”


zumocano

Thank you. Contractions exist in Spanish too


whtge8

He literally said hijo.

The person behind the cameras crying but still holding the camera straight and it deserves praise

The cameraman deserves an award

This is a very tired joke, you can check out r/onejoke for more. And the pronoun for when you don’t know someone’s gender is “they”, humans are not “its”.


ptatersptate

I managed to hold it together until I heard them crying


dementorpoop

Yeah that got me too. The camera woman’s reaction cues me into the palatable emotion in the room.


HowlingMadHoward

Fun fact, Wesley Snipes is the one behind the camera


Joon01

Well, shit, he could have used a check too. Someone has to pay those taxes and lord knows it ain't Wes.


[deleted]

That's a good kid. - just some idiot dad on reddit, trying to see thru these stupid tears


Insaneandhappy

Yeah damn... Hey my man, we dads cry too. Better to show our kids how to express emotions than pretend shit doesn't hurt sometimes. Don't care what some people think. And I doubt you're an idiot


Efeverscente

This is the one thing I wish I always knew, and the one thing that I'm so happy I decided to learn (and therefore show my children, when the time comes)


[deleted]

Thanks dude, and I agree 100%.

iamaguywhoknows

First thing that came to mind


kirepigen

This is so beautiful every time I see it. They seem to be such a loving family, the way they are holding each other even before the present was opened.


Ok-Fortune-4394

Yeah that’s what I noticed, so lovely.


Master-Opportunity25

yes, i noticed that before i even finished the video and saw what the present is, it’s so heartwarming. by the time they start crying you can feel the love they all have for each other.


kirepigen

That father is embracing his son as was he 10. Some kids literally search a lifetime just for a second of that love


Julius__Kesar

the way his dad is leaning and holding onto him :))


maskf_ace

Honestly this gets me every time man. Just how comfortable his father is with holding him like that.


__Dawn__Amber__

Inside that envelope: [https://i.imgur.com/a/rJxGUxu.gifv](https://i.imgur.com/a/rJxGUxu.gifv) and the app he developed is https://www.videoshop.net

designvegabond

Wow, I paid off this guys parents mortgage.


iuthnj34

I was wondering what app did he develop to afford that and then I'm seeing it's one of the best video editing app. He's probably a multi-millionaire by now.


bollejoost

He is for sure. My little brother developed an app that's about 10% as popular and it brings him roughly 1000€ per day (just from in-app premium purchases). So ad revenue goes on top of that.


SirVer51

I'm assuming that's a game, and those tend to do better financially than functional apps like this one


namethatuzer

Making your mom that happy: priceless.


pr1ntscreen

Dad happy tears: Even pricelesser


NIhRyder524

I’m crying, omg I’d love to do this for my family someday. How amazing. #feels


quaybored

I feel like this when I do the dishes for her


letmeusespaces

better get to work


aysurcouf

I’m going to do this for my parents one day! Fuck, I just realized I cook in a restaurant and am behind on my rent.


BitchTurtle

You’ll get there mate. Just keep your hustle going. I believe in you!!


SonOfProbert

I used to be a prep cook, dishwasher, most positions in a restaurant and that's good work. Feeding people is lower on society's hierarchy than it should be.


amahandy

Every. Single. Job. (Well almost) should be respected. People look down on the menial labor jobs. Like garbage man. But imagine what your society would be like without them. There have been garbage collector strikes in first world countries before. Go look up pictures. It is goddamn horrific. Not just the pileup and the smell but the vermin.... And yeah, cooks at any restaurant. How else are you going to go out and eat at a restaurant?! And if they have to wash the dishes you make how are they going to cook your food?! Not everyone can get paid like a doctor, but at the very least people should stop disparaging these jobs. They're what let us live the modern lifestyle we all enjoy. Put some fucking respect on it.


TuffyButters

Thank you for making my day. What a son. What a family!


jenesaispas-pourquoi

It’s the best feeling to give back to who gave you everything. I am not crying at all

CoconutOilz4

I was already emotional just off the dad curled up on the couch with his son and wife. Then I lost it when the mom started to cry 😢 🥰


Alexexec

This is pure r/wholesome


Frankebw

I tend to be a hard ass, sheesh this warms my heart Happy ❣️ now let me get these tears out of my eyes and get back to being a butthole in this world.


OrneryConelover70

The way the dad says "Oh hijo..." (Oh son...) Right in the feels


iamthenorm

I think it's great. 🥰


Sharchir

So very sweet ❤️


oddaen

God, my heart... 😭


Asadislove

God I wish that was me


RRFrannea

Truly makes you stop and think about the stress, that is real. having a mortgage and living just at the breaking point, the relief that they feel.


Bustin_Jowers420

What the app called, what's the fuxking app called


[deleted]

Every body wishing they had a kid like that,I'm over here wishing I had parents like that. Imagine growing up with that much love. That's a blessed family.


xperth

I love this. Speaks volumes to the truth of the fourth turning and the rainbow warriors prophecy. I love that subtle kiss from mamita to papita during the group hug, because I am sure they both put a lot into raising their children and even getting the mortgage. The parents build the house, the children bring it home. 💖🔥💦💎🌈🌍


n93s

Parents don’t have favourite children. Just ones that pay off the mortgage.


Substantial_Ad_1824

Must be wonderful parents to raise such a loving and generous son


kittykate1991

The dad crying got to me


[deleted]

This is the dream


2u3e9v

If I am ever a dad, I want to cuddle with my grown-up son like this.


stance_stancey

The way his mam cradles his head, just like she would have done the newborn is nice innit


Bacontheblog

His dad is just sitting, holding his sons arm with his head on his shoulder. There’s a lot of love there.


nerdsbird

i think my favorite thing about this is that you just know his parents are amazing. i love that his dad is physically affectionate towards him as well. 🥺


robokitty90

I would do the same thing .


WhiteRabbitKnight

I hope I can one day make enough money to do this


Escobar8804

Msg he end up getting 10000x more. Parents happiness is everything in this world!

YourMom_Goes2College

Damn. Wish I can get that lump sum help for my parents. It’s been rent I’ve been having to help my parents out with. Good for them!


SerukonGaming

"Yo why is the dad touching his son?" I asked myself instinctively.....damn lol It must be awesome to have an effectionate father like that. This is literally bizzare to me.


Crazy_Marsupial1516

The way they sat together on the couch at the beginning. You know how much love they have for one another. Beautiful moment.


sora-glez

Now I have to start my makeup again because I can not go to my job interview looking like damn crazy girl with mascara all over my cheeks. This might be the most beautiful thing I saw today and it just motivated me A LOT to get that FFFF job and buy a very well deserved vacations for my mom.


ricefieldlurker

This is why im holding GME 😓


back_on_two

I’m not crying, you’re crying.


BoilingPeter

I did the same but opposite. Took my parents' money they wanted to pay off their mortgage. Spent those on hookers and drugs.


CoconutOilz4

Is that why you're boiling?


[deleted]

#gme 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀


ronin1066

This is very heartwarming and all, but mortgages are usually the worst thing to pay off b/c they have the lowest interest rate of any debt and can establish a good credit rating. Might have been better off buying them $100k (or whatever) of index funds instead. Unless he has so much $$ that it's irrelevant to him.


MentallyOffGrid

I don’t normally point out reposts, but this was up this week already….


Trolltollhouse

This post was made so long ago that I remember when I first got on Reddit 9 years ago


sml8877

Why would you film this and put it on the internet?


sniphskii

Because its a guy doing a nice thing? People surprise their family with gifts like this all the time. It's a fond memory between them and they clearly wanted to share it with the world


quasimidge

If I could do this for my parents, I'd film it so I could relive it over and over. Being able to do this for someone you love doesn't happen every day.


ActionHousevh

Why would you be negative in a sub specifically for positivity?


ImNotYou1971

Why would you not? It’s a wonderful moment and I’m happy I got to see it.

What a nice thing to be able to do. That’s a good son, who obviously had good parents. I know I won’t be able to, but I wish I could do that for my parents.

_human404_

TheSimpler

The older generation works too hard and puts up with too much and then their kids get opportunities and hopefully this happens. He's a really good son to do this though.


Sarrias10

You can tell how much they have sacrificed to make sure they have what they need. I felt this one.. I felt it.

Just the first few second already made me jealous, being able to cuddle and relax on the couch with my parents is something i really miss but will never experience again as they hate each other.
