Actress Sandra Bullock together with her daughter, 8-year-old Laila surprised a frontline nurse in California during Friday's special Mother's Day episode of Jada Pinkett Smith's facebook watch talk show Red Table Talk saluting the heroic moms who are helping to keep the country safe, healthy and fed in these difficult times.

The Oscar winner, who recently donated 6,000 N95 masks to Los Angeles hospitals, fought back tears while thanking April Buencamino, a nurse manager of the COVID-19 unit at LA's White Memorial Hospital and the mother of two young girls.

"Thank you for everything that you're doing," Bullock, 55, gushed in a video call to Buencamino on Friday's special Mother's Day episode of Jada Pinkett Smith's facebook watch talk show Red Table Talk. "We get to sit here and be home with our families because you are out there doing the hard, hard, hard work. There's not a dinner or a grace that [goes] by without us sending you the love and the appreciation and the gratitude that we as a family have because we are safe."

Bullock, who is known to keep her kids out of the spotlight as much as she can, took her 8-year-old daughter Laila onto her lap during the call for her to give a special message to Buencamino:

"Thank you, April, for doing everything for everyone. Stay safe for your family.

But that was not the end of the sweet messages the group had for Buencamino. "On behalf of the Will and Jada Smith family foundation, we are going to donate $50,000 to your hospital," Smith revealed to the frontline worker.

To thank Buencamino for her service, Smith shared that she would like to reward the nurse manager with a vacation of her choice, once the pandemic tides over. According to the interview, Buencamino had to miss out on a family vacation for her birthday because of the epidemic.

"Next time when this is all over I'm going to give you a big hug and a big kiss," enthused Smith. "And a big tequila," Sandra chimed.

What a pleasant surprise for a well-deserving frontline worker and a mother. Pass this story along to your friends and family to spread the good cheer.
