    Army dad pops out of box to surprise kids with his return

    By Nadine Bells | Good News – Thu, 30 Jun, 2011
    No kid can resist a brightly wrapped present.

    When Audrey and Logan's mom told them to unwrap the huge box unloaded from the back of their van, they had no idea what — or who — they would find inside.

    Watch the video below to see the heartwarming reunion between the kids and their military dad, home early from his deployment.

    Warning: You may need a tissue.

        My son served in Afghanistan and I didn't want to embarrass him at the airport when he was finally home for good by crying too much but it's so overwhelming to finally have them home you really cannot stop the tears.

        That little girl did me in!

        I also cried when I head that little girl crying, and saying I'm so glad you're home! I don't know how the mommy managed to record all this without breaking down herself. Goes to show you, military wives are some of the strongest people out there. God Bless you all!
