One mom had a tearful reaction to an unexpected show of support after her son’s autism diagnosis. The mother could not contain her emotions after what she found on her front porch. Watch the video to see what the mom found near her front door and the message of love and support that came with it.

Parenting, while being the biggest and best blessing anyone can experience on Earth, is not always an easy task. Children add so much happiness and joy to a household. However, not every day will be a reason for celebration. There will be some days and occasions that absolutely break your heart.

Every parent wants the best for their child. When things come up beyond a mother or father’s control, parents will start to question and doubt themselves. They might believe they are coming up short in the parenting department and may even consider themselves a failure. That’s when a little show of support and a kind, encouraging word can make all the difference in the world.

In a clip posted on social media, one mother’s son had just officially been diagnosed with autism. That would be an emotional day for any and every parent. Naturally, a parent would be scared and have a lot of anxiety and questions.

But as the woman shows, her best friend came through with a sweet show of support, leaving it at her front door.

Seconds into the 18-second video, the woman opens her front door to reveal that a small bouquet of flowers and a card have been placed outside her door. She opens the card and shows its beautiful, uplifting message to the camera.

“I’m so proud of the mama that you are today. You’re such a loving and caring mom. The kids are so lucky to have you. So proud of you and Kai (& Michael of course). Forever will be here for you guys. Love you. Take a deep breath. You’re doing great,” the card reads.

What a beautiful message at a time when that mother likely needed it most.
