Jimmy Fallon's wife, Nancy Juvonen, may have a tough time topping the birthday gift she got him this year.

On Thursday, Sept. 19, The Tonight Show host celebrated his milestone 50th birthday, and in honor of his big day, he let fans in on the wholesome morning he had.

In a joint post shared on Instagram, the late night host revealed that he was given a handmade bracelet by his daughter and treated to what he said was "the best" start to his day: A "Pee-Wee Herman breakfast."

"It was the pancake with the two fried eggs for eyes and bacon for the lips," he said. "It was just so cool. My mom used to make that for me."

Though the sweet gesture was enough to make him smile, that wasn't all Nancy and the kids had in store for the star. Fallon continued, telling the audience that after he ate his meal and put on the bracelet, the couple's two daughters–Winnie and Franny–called him into another room, where they wanted to show him something.

When he walked into the space, Fallon said he saw this "big giant thing" all wrapped up.

"So I open it up, and," he immediately recognized what it was.

"My dad had a jukebox when I was growing up. He got it for free from the VFW. It was broken jukebox, and he goes, 'Hey can I take that and try to fix it?' My dad fixed machines, so he fixed this jukebox and we had a jukebox in our house."

"And then it just broke because it was just old," Fallon went on, "and we got rid of it. I think we gave it away for free or something like that."

Fast forward a few years, the comedian explained that one of his friends had found the jukebox at an electronic store and called Nancy, telling her that it had to be the same jukebox because they recognized the handwriting.

Nancy bought it and had it refurbished, so it's been brought up to current standard and is now Bluetooth compatible–resulting in a truly "full circle" and "next level kind of thoughtful gift," according to fans online.
