I found this really sweet video surfing the net this afternoon, and thought I would share it with all of you! It is very sweet!
That is wonderful. I am almost in tears. Thanks for sharing.
That was so touching. Made me teary-eyed. I love those kind of stories, especially with all of the horrible stories we always hear from the warfront.
oh my gosh! My husband called me from work on Monday to get me to pull this video up from home. HE was all choked up as he was telling me about it! As soon as I saw that little precious boy's face, I got the biggest lump in my throat. So incredibly sweet! So heartbreaking that he missed his dad so much like that. And how mature of him to be able to express his feelings in such raw fashion.
I can't remember the last time I saw a video as moving as this one.
I dont have sound on the computer but the expression on both their faces make me break down. Thanks for sharing that
Okay, I have to share. My husband was gone for 13 months and needless to say, it was a difficult year. Baby girl (6 yrs) had written her school letter to Santa saying that all she wanted was Daddy home for Christmas. Her letter explained that it had been such a very long time and how much she missed her father. She went to visit Santa with school and asked for him to bring Daddy home. Almost every kid in the class asked Santa to bring her daddy home. Well, as it turned out... we went for a family visit with Santa and he magically had her letter and pulled it out and read it. Santa was a retired Marine so he read it with tears streaming down his face. He asked all three kids to close their eyes and make a wish - and their father came from around the corner. It was one of those perfect moments where the kids weren't quite able to believe their eyes and just looked in disbelief before squealing and leaving Santa for their dad. My oldest was in on it, but the other two were completely surprised.
