MANILA, Philippines - The sacrifices our parents made to be able to raise us are priceless. This is the reason why many children strive hard to repay their parents’ kindness, may it be through material things, time or effort.
Nilo Dela Cruz and his siblings knew how much their father sacrificed to be able to give them a good life. As a way of repaying his father’s sacrifices and selfless love, Dela Cruz and his brother decided to give him something he didn't have the privilege to own for the past thirty years.
In his viral post on Facebook, Dela Cruz shared photos of his dad with his brand new Chevrolet Trailblazer. In the caption of the photo, he wrote:
“Dad, this gift is not enough to suffice all your sacrifices you made, your selfless love and your service for the Lord. This is God's blessing and He just used us to bring this for you. Sa wakas! After almost 3 decades of your mission in Pandi, hindi ka na magjijeep o sasabit sa jeep o kaya sasakay sa tricycle at sobrang matatagtag sa daan. Dad, sobrang saya naming magkakapatid na ngayon makakabawi na kami sa inyo. Maraming maraming salamat po Dad at mahal na mahal po namin kayo.”
Luckily, they were able to film how the surprise unfolded. The Dela Cruz brothers apparently pretended that they were lost in a parking lot. Unknown to their father, they were actually leading him to where the brand new SUV was parked.
When they were finally near the SUV, the brothers handed their father the car key. It took their father several seconds to realize what was really going on.
Tears started rolling down his cheeks as soon as he discovered his children’s surprise.
The heartwarming video has quickly gone viral amassing over 1 million views, more than 35,000 shares and over 86,000 reactions on Facebook.
