In the video, Morrison says the stranger, who she describes as an older man, stopped to say, “Wow, you’re going to have a lot of fun.”

“I don’t know why I’m excited to tell you now, but most people say, ‘Oh, you’ve got your hands full.’ And it’s my biggest pet peeve,” Morrison says in the video. “But he was so cute and I could see the memories gradually through his eyeballs.”

Morrison, who lives with her family in Orange County, Calif., said “Good Morning America” the experience was completely unexpected for her, but she “affirmed” how she felt about becoming a mother to her daughter Mackenzie, 4, and sons Dustin, 2, and Brayden, 11 weeks.

“I stopped dead in my tracks and said, ‘God, thank you,'” Morrison recalled. “And when I started to leave, tears were streaming down my face.”

Morrison said she wanted to post about the encounter because she felt other parents could benefit from hearing about the “very kind gesture.”

“It was the sweetest message I think I needed to hear — and clearly a lot of other moms, too,” Morrison said of the reception to her TikTok post.

“My only son is 7 months old. I can no longer have children due to life-threatening complications during childbirth. A man said to me the other day, “He can have you all to himself, isn’t that special? ‘I cried,” one person commented.

Another TikTok user wrote: “Same thing happened to me today, this older woman stopped me and my kids from jumping in the leaves and said ‘I used to bring my kids here. You and your babies will have these memories forever.”

Morrison said she hopes to continue spreading the same message the stranger shared with her and hopes to thank him in person in the near future for making her day.

“We need support at the end of the day, like, this is the best thing we’ve ever done, this is the hardest thing we’ve ever done, and to hear that we’re going to have a lot of fun no matter what happens in this season of our lives, it was necessary,” she added. “So there really are no words to thank my neighbor friend.”
