A high school student was moved to tears of joy as she opened the White House\u2019s response to the graduation announcement she had mailed to President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

A now-viral video captured the moment the teen opened the large envelope she reportedly received from the White House and her emotional reaction to the contents, which included a signed photo of the president.<\/p>\n

The video, posted originally on TikTok by the account<\/a> \u201ctruckingalongwithtay,\u201d captured hearts on social media, including that of White House press secretary Karoline Leaviitt, who shared it with a smiling emoji.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the long-awaited what the White House sent me. My mom woke me up at 6 a.m. to film this, the high school graduate said in the video as she held up the envelope.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s see what\u2019s in it,\u201d she said as she pulled out a letter that appeared to be on White House letterhead.<\/p>\n

\u201cGot a little note, congrats on your graduation,\u201d she explained before pulling out the signed photo of Trump, which immediately made her tear up. \u201cOh my God!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can frame it. Put it in your apartment,\u201d the off-camera voice, presumably her mother, suggested.<\/p>\n

She wrapped up the moment by pulling out a photo of Vice President J.D. Vance and then displaying them both for the camera.<\/p>\n

Just last month, the White House promoted the presidential greetings program, encouraging to \u201cCelebrate life\u2019s most meaningful moments with a message from the President.\u201d<\/p>\n

Births, birthdays, graduations, weddings, retirements and more milestones are suggested topics to share with the president in the longstanding tradition.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the graduation response video warmed the hearts of many on social media as the simple gesture was applauded as \u201cthoughtful\u201d and \u201cpersonal.\u201d Many X users were motivated to send in their own greeting requests.<\/p>\n
