When a TikToker's town didn't plan a celebration of the LGBTQ+ community during Pride, his mom made up for it in spades.

A video was posted by ScottyandSimone–an account featuring two dogs that were on prominent display sitting on a wagon and surrounded by Pride flags in the colorful cavalcade.

The star of the show, however, was the mother leading the backyard pageantry and dancing in an inflatable unicorn costume.

The clip, which you can see here, has tugged on the heartstrings of 280 thousand TikTokers.

Let the festivities begin.

The accompanying music for the makeshift Pride parade was "Be My Lover" by La Bouche, and the text overlay read:

"When your town doesn't have a pride parade so your mom wakes you up with this."

TikTokers gave heaps of praise for the proud momma.

Reply to @fannypacksnacks my mom got the whole look and Pride merch from @fundotcom_ 🌈🥰 #pride22 #pridemonthth #dogparade

The mother had two tips to impart as an ally of the LGBTQ+ community:

"If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything," and "spread love."

When it comes to love, equality and celebrating Pride, this mother knows best.
