Opossum with babies caught on video during rainstorm in Oklahoma

Sometimes Mother Nature gives us a moment that stops us in our tracks, which was the case for an Oklahoma family who had some surprise visitors in their backyard.

Take a look at this cell phone video.

Katie Tippens captured cell phone video from her back porch in Yukon of a mother opossum making her way across a fence in the rain while carrying a whole bundle of babies on her back. It looks like as many as 10 baby opossums were hanging on to the mom as she carefully scaled the fence, with one on her tail hanging on for dear life.

Tippens had a sweet sentiment about seeing it.

“Such a simple moment, but such a powerful reminder. Moms are amazing. They show up, carry the load, and keep going no matter what," Tippens said. "That little opossum made me think about the kind of mama I want to be-one who shows up with love, strength, and everything I've got, rain or shine.”
