Mom Surprises Kids With New Home They Think Is Just AirBnB

A hardworking single mom who worked three jobs to save money told her children they were all spending the night in an AirBnB - before revealing it was actually their new family home. Kimaada Ellison's kids had no idea the surprise was coming when they entered the home, initially taking a look around the large family property in awe. Then, suddenly, mom Kimaada, 44, asks her children - Rene 25, Kahalia 21, Kiari 18, Kanani 13, and Kimora, aged six, - "What if I told you this was your house?" As everything begins to click, the kids light up with joy, screaming in complete shock. The moment marked the end of a long journey for Kimaada, from Missouri, who had been living in a two-bedroom unit to save money, after she said her children's father left the family unexpectedly. It was tough, Kimaada, a teacher of 24 years, said, initially having to admit to her kids she could not fully support them on a single salary. So, she took on two extra jobs - braiding hair and working in an Amazon warehouse - and put her studies on hold, as she couldn’t afford tuition she hopes will one day allow her to become a principal. Kimaada worked the three jobs, eventually earning enough for the new property, which she wanted to show her kids through a big surprise.

The fact that a school teacher needs a second job, working an entire living day without dying from exhaustion to afford shelter, speaks volumes.

She has a full time job as a teacher, her job should be able to provide for her so she doesn't have to work 20 hour days 5 days a week missing time with her kids. What this shows is the system is broken.
The little one caught on the fastest...girl is going places. What a grateful bunch of nice-looking kids. Excellent work, Mom!

She's still an optimistic person seeing as she's so young. The older ones have obviously lived a bit more and are a bit more cautious.
The way those kids were excited for their mom is soooo priceless. I did the same with my kids two Mothers Days ago. I had been secretly decorating it and getting it together for them. I was a home mom divorced and started from the bottom. My kids in my parents basement on air mattresses for a year and a half. Left abuser during pandemic. Cried out to God to cover me and the 3 kids. He answered and although I wanted to be in a community so an apartment first it is our place of peace. I’ll be moving to own once they are totally out of school or if home is in same area. With God all things are possible and hard work and favor yields amazing results. Congrats to this beautiful woman and the kids. 🙏❤️

The kids reactions are priceless!
So happy for this family. Mom is a super woman working all those hours and still take care of her children.
Now that's an amazing mother! That's exactly the mother I hope and strive to be! ❤️💕❤️
A gracious, loving woman, determined and goal focused..... I am so happy for her and her beloved children ☺️💕
Way to go mom. You are doing an amazing job. You should be so proud of yourself, I know it’s not easy. I grew up in an orphanage and started saving 1 penny a week from age 7 so I could buy my own house and leave the orphanage. I bought my first house for me and my daughter at 26. Like you, I worked hard, saved hard and I did get there. 🎉🎉🎉
Their reactions are the the best thing I've seen in a really long time 🤗
The little one caught on so fast when she saw the picture ❤
It’s so sad that she had to do all of that just to have a roof above their heads proper, but I am so happy for her that she was able to do it. Proper role model. Incredible mother.❤
Mom, you’re doing something right. You have such kind grateful kids. God bless you all.
Diamonds achieve their brilliance from tremendous pressure!
These kids have been raised in the most beautiful way by their most beautiful mother. They reply “this your house?? This your house?” Giving their mother the highest respect in knowing the price she paid for them to have this home and they know it’s hers , to share with them. So so beautiful. God bless you lady and your children. May you continue to be blessed and walk under His Great protection and love. Glory to the Highest of High, the Creator of life. The Alpha and the Omega. ✝️✝️✝️❤️
You deserve it! I'm so proud of you. What an amazing example you are for your beautiful children. Hard work does pay off. Continued blessings for you and your family!
Out of adversity happiness grows and I wish you and your family all the happiness in the world.
That is a STRONG parent. These kids are lucky to have so much more than a home, but knowing how hard it is to get a house lately makes her accomplishment, especially as a single parent, that much more phenomenal! Way to go, Mama!
This is a great Mom and a woman to be proud of. Don’t say women cannot do everything p. She is a perfect example that we can. Happy tears.
Those screams bring tears to my eyes...too happy for them. 😊
This amazing woman worked 3 jobs 5 days a week to finally get her kids the home they deserved! Hopefully they will respect her and her home for it and follow in her footsteps! Hard work pays off
She should be proud of herself!! She worked so hard for this home!! So happy for her and her family!!
she’s an amazing mother and good example to her kids for resiliency, hard work, and life skills. You can already tell her kids are raised right. We need stories like these in the media! Respect, Mom! 🙌🏼
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Congratulations to this lovely woman and her family. Well done, Mom.
I love the “yeah it’s pretty nice huh 😉” when the mom is responding to her lil daughters comments. Typical “yeah I bought this baby !!!” That’s so awesome man. Earned !
What a great Mom to work so hard to provide this home for her children. May God Bless you and your children!
I can imagine the pure joy and happiness these beautiful children felt their first night in their new home. Mom just showed her family that through hard work and perseverance your dreams can become your reality. Way to go mom!! 🥳🎈♥️🎉👍
I'm 16, and my whole family have been living in nice houses ever since I was 8. This video made me cry, and made me realize how much I take for granted. This mom and her children deserved this pleasant surprise, especially seeing how hard they were having it at first. Bless her and her family, hope they continue to have an amazing and happy life ❤️
I love this woman...my tears are pouring...my heart is full. You are strong..you are beautiful...you are wise. Thank you for sharing.
I really like that. “Lord help me figure it out” And not “ Lord figure it out for me” ❤ Congratulations on your new home. You ROCK!
sad that a teacher in this country isn't paid enough to survive, but GREAT job MAMA! The look on your son's face made my heart melt.❤
What a fantastic mother. I'm so happy for her and her children.
Reminds me of what my Mom had to go through after her husband left. She worked so hard to take care of 3 kids alone. God bless this lady! ♥️♥️♥️
I'm choking back tears. Girl I'm over the moon PROUD. Look at you and these beautiful kiddos. God blessings have taken you there. My skin is just shivering. All the best to you. ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm so happy for this mom and her family..I ugly cried tears of joy for them. What a blessing 🎉
I cried. God is good all the time. You worked hard mama. Good for you!
So happy for this mama! I wouldn’t have made it past the little one saying “it’s pretty mommy”❤❤❤
CONGRATS!!!!! MOM OF THE DECADE!
So happy for them. God gave her the strength and she made it happen with all her sweat, tears and labor. Now that is a real mother and woman.
Mom was busting her butt and the kids look so relieved they could be stable and have their own space!❤❤❤❤
What a lovely home. Much more, what a wonderful, dedicated Mom, working herself to the bone to provide a safe, roomy home that is theirs forever! She is modeling excellence for her kids. They will know how it’s done. A teacher shouldn’t have to work multiple jobs to provide for her children.
It’s the kid’s happiness for me ❤ I’m proud of her, from one mom to another
I "stumbled" on this video, and I am so glad I did! This was so encouraging! Not only is this perfect stranger (though sister in Christ) proud of you and happy for your family, but you so inspired me to remember that my story isn't over... God and I have got the next chapter, and I can count on Him! Thank you so much for sharing! Blessings galore! :)

What a sweet mama 😭 My Mom never once put herself in an uncomfortable situation to make our lives better. She chose to stay in a house she hated to keep her bills paid instead of doing what needed to be done. Good for you making those HARD decisions for your kids 💜They will never forget that.
They are so cute and happy. That was sweet! She worked amazingly hard for the perfect end result.
WONDERFUL!!! PRAISE GOD!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Congratulations Mom!! You've done a great job and sounds like you continually set a great example for those beautiful children.😍
Where I live a lot of people work that hard for years still can’t afford to buy a house. And without child care this would be impossible for most single parents. But it’s absolutely wonderful to see this family’s joy.
