Mita tells PEOPLE she "didn't expect all the love and special treatments" her family planned during their girls' night
The grandmother's emotional morning message, recorded by her granddaughter Drianna, struck a chord with millions on TikTok
The viral moment has inspired the family to keep sharing their faith-filled traditions and generational bond online
A grandmother's heartfelt words the morning after a simple girls' night quickly became a viral TikTok, capturing millions of views.
For Drianna and her grandmother, Mita, what began as an evening of pampering transformed into a powerful message of gratitude that continues to resonate online.
"I just want to say that I feel so special, and it was an amazing girls' night and uh, I didn't expect all the love and special treatments you had to surprise me with," Mita tells PEOPLE. She thought the evening would be a movie night, but instead her daughter and granddaughter surprised her with red light therapy, hand massages and soft music that put her into a rare state of calm.
"I just thought we were gonna watch a movie, you know, or, or have jokes or something like that," she says. "As soon as they started, I said, wow, I started feeling so relaxed, which is so needed in our busy lives sometimes."
The relaxation lasted long into the night. "It was the most comfortable moment that lasted long, [and] it put me to sleep," Mita shares. Waking in the early hours, she recalls wanting to thank her family right away: "It was so needed. And it was just such a surprise."
Her granddaughter explains that the evening was meant to give Mita what she often gives to everyone else — care and love. As Mita's mother battles an illness, she's been the primary caretaker for her, leaving her little time for self care and relaxation. "She pours her whole heart into everybody else," Drianna tells PEOPLE. "So it was really special to just be able to give her that moment of relaxation."

The effect was clear the next morning when Mita was still resting soundly. "She's someone that actually struggles with having a good sleep. She wakes up a lot like in the middle of the night with anxiety," Drianna says. "So me seeing her knocked out at 9:30, I was like, oh my gosh. Like, it was worth it that night."
When Mita spoke that morning, her gratitude flowed naturally. "My life is so busy, and I'm always preoccupied with my mom and her illness. So, um, I look for those moments. What gives me peace is just being prayed up every day."
Faith has long been her foundation. "That's like the first thing I do is pray for others, not so much for myself, but I always have family in prayer or people that are in my life," Mita says. "Even if they don't know, I pray for them."
Christian music and scripture journaling are part of her daily practice. "I taught her about K-Love Christian music. And I think she listens to it all the time when she's driving. And so do I," she explains. "It's all like a circle, a connection, you know, circle. So the whole full circle."
Those prayers have become an anchor for the family. "I literally had the worst times in my life, I'm like, I need to call my grandma so she could pray for me," Drianna says. "Like, she's like that, that anchor in our family, I think. And I don't know if she realizes that."
Looking back, Drianna admits she once took that time for granted. "When I was in middle school or early high school, I would rather hang out with my friends on weekends rather than my family and miss family events," she recalls. "I can't believe I was actually doing that, because now I'm the complete opposite. And I feel like as you grow older, that's when you start appreciating that family time."
The TikTok struck a chord with viewers because it reflected love that many long for in their own families. "It's all about gratitude and what brings you joy and peace," Mita says. Drianna adds, "I like that all different types of crowds are just like appreciating our family love and our lifestyle."
Sharing these moments online has become meaningful in its own right. "I feel like it's almost like a calling for me," Drianna explains. "It's cool that I'm able to still be present in the moment, but still have something recording just to capture the moments and then share it with people that maybe don't get to experience it."

The family is already dreaming up future gatherings. "I think a really good girls' night for us and maybe like doing puzzles and just doing little games that can help us, you know, with our memory," Drianna says. "There's definitely gonna be girls' nights in the future for sure. Like, regardless, like forever, there should be girls' nights."
Mita knows exactly what she'd like to add. "For me it is, I can't sing, but I love oldies and my goodies like from the 70s and 80s, you should have a dance swap," she says, smiling. "I love to dance, so that would be a really good one. Yeah, that would be fun."
For this family, the viral video is more than a fleeting moment. "There's just a lot of love," Mita says. "And that's when we have to share our love with others. So that's why I've also come forward to share through the little presentations that I could do, even if it's three minutes, five minutes — if I could help someone, then that gives me a lot of gratitude."
