Mum left in tears after 10-year-old son organises huge Christmas lights display

A mum's sweet reaction to watching a Christmas lights display set up by her 10-year-old son is warming hearts.

TikTok user @sbraswellbr shared the video of her son's efforts on TikTok, where it has been viewed thousands of times.

She captioned the clip: "Long story short...my 10 yr old knew that I was upset that we didn't have any lights up yet.

"He put up lights to surprise me."

The video opens with the boy yelling "let the show begin" before an impressive lights display begins accompanied by music.

The mum can be heard gasping in the background as she takes in the huge display.

In a follow-up video, the woman explained how her son managed to pull it off.

She said: "It has already been a crazy, busy December.

"My dad does crazy lights for Christmas and I love it, I love the lights.

"And I was so upset because we've been so busy with four kids and all the craziness of life that we had not put up lights yet.

"It was raining that day and I had so much to do and I was upset and crying."

In order to cheer her up, her ten-year-old son went behind her back and organised the display.

Viewers were left overwhelmed by the sweet display - which has racked up thousands of likes.

One fan commented: "He's going to make a wonderful big human one day."

Another added: "Great job for a ten-year-old. Merry Christmas y'all."

A third joked: "Are you crying? I'm crying. So sweet, such a good job," to which the mum replied: "I totally cried."

A fourth replied: "This is the absolute sweetest thing ever.

"You raised him right! Loving his momma!"

Meanwhile, one mum-to-be was told she couldn't join her family for Christmas this year if she didn't agree to change her babies name.

Her sister sent her a list of alternatives to "strongly consider" using, including Riley, Kailey, Luna, Emersyn (spelt like that) and Harper.
