Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson has given his mother a Christmas gift of a lifetime: buying her her own home.

The action star took to Instagram to share the news posting a heartwarming video of his mother’s, Ata’s, reaction.

“This one felt good. Surprise! Bought my mom a new home for Christmas,” he wrote.

Johnson said he and his mother grew up living in small apartments all across the country. He said they lived like “gypsies on the road from one state to another.”

“I always say, if you got a good mama, then you gotta pretty good shot at becoming a decent human being,” the Rock said, on Instagram. “And somehow, somewhere along the line I became one lucky SOB to be able to make stuff like this happen. Merry Christmas Ma and WOOOHOOO enjoy your new home.”

Cue the tears.
