'The Oprah Winfrey Show' 2015: Single Mom Bernadette Gets The Surprise Of A Lifetime
Dreams do come true for Bernadette, a single mother of nine. She was in a difficult situation in 2004. Her whole family were living into a small apartment. None of them had their own beds, as they each piled onto a few mattresses with each other.
In 2004, Oprah walked into the Starbucks she worked at and ambushed her with a slew of surprises that would change her life. Oprah surprised Bernadette, with a shopping spree for her children, new furniture, kitchen appliances and Nate Berkus' decorating assistance, but that wasn't all.
Look back at the unforgettable moment when Oprah told Bernadette she was buying her a new home. Plus, Oprah discusses why giving joy is just as powerful as receiving joy.
One fantastic moment, "Oh my goodness, that is happiness," Oprah says looking back on the moment eleven years later, in 2015.
"One of the reasons why I have been so enormously blessed in my life, it's because every single time I was able to do that, I was able to received the joy one hundred fold in return," Oprah added.
