What do you give the woman who has everything? If you're Kanye West, you put together a beautiful video of moments from her childhood that moves the internet to tears.

In the five-minute clip, posted on West's Twitter in honor of Kim Kardashian's 36th birthday, we get a glimpse of never-before-seen home videos featuring her late father and grandmother. As the tape rolls, West's song "Only One" — a tribute to Kardashian and West's daughter North that's written from the perspective of his late mother as she looks down from Heaven — plays in the background.

At the end of the video, we hear Robert Kardashian, who died in 2003, telling young Kim "I love you" as an identical message from West is displayed.

It was amazing. Remembering him and their family was just what she needed after feeling so shaken up by the robbery."

Twitter was understandably moved by the clip, too — including Rob Kardashian, Kim's brother. Here's what they had to say:
