A touching video captures a heartwarming moment when a 5-year-old girl with autism, who was previously nonverbal, tells her mom, “I love you,” for the first time.

God blesses us with special moments that remind us of His love. The story of little Zoey Expert and her mom Delphine shows how love and patience can work wonders.

Delphine, who is 50 years old, gave her phone to Zoey and asked her to record “treasures” during their walk. Zoey, who has autism, couldn’t speak until a few months ago. She started taking violin lessons, which helped her begin to talk. As Zoey filmed her surroundings, she started naming the objects she saw.

“This is a pinecone. This is a dandelion. This is another dandelion. This is the grass. This is the sky. This is the clouds. This is my car. This is my house,” Zoey said in the video.

Then something amazing happened. Zoey turned the camera toward her mom and said, “And there is my beautiful mom. She is the best mom. I love her so much. And she is the best Mom in the whole world.”

Delphine was overjoyed to hear these words. Before this, Zoey had never verbally expressed her love for her mother. Though Zoey had shown her love through hugs, hearing the words was incredibly special for Delphine.

It took a long time for Zoey to learn to speak. Dancing, music, and skiing all helped her. The violin lessons seemed to help the most.

Delphine shared the video online, and many people were deeply moved by it. Some viewers even cried happy tears when they heard Zoey’s excited voice talking about her mom.

Caring for Zoey is a full-time job for Delphine. She looks after her daughter all day and teaches her at home, using a special online program to help Zoey learn.

Delphine hopes that other families with similar challenges will feel hopeful when they see Zoey’s progress. She believes that with love and the right help, children like Zoey can do amazing things.
