The journalist just upped the ante on it, however, by sharing a video which left her daughter in a state of shock and actual bliss.

WATCH: Savannah Guthrie's video to her kids from Team USA

Savannah posted two clips on her Instagram, one of her with five of the six gymnasts who represented the USA at the 2020 Olympics with their medals, all waving to her kids, Vale, six, and Charley, four.

She excitedly responded with, "They wanted to say hi, can you believe it?" as the gymnasts smiled to her kids from the Today plaza.

Vale couldn't believe that she got a shout-out from her heroes

Her father, who recorded the video, asked his daughter, "What?" and she adorably responded with, "I'm overwhelmed right now."

Savannah's fans and followers reacted with a resounding cry of "aww" for Vale and cheered the journalist on.

Co-host Al Roker hilariously commented, "Vale is all of us," and CNN's Poppy Harlow wrote, "BEST MOM AWARD" with a medal emoji.
