VIDEO: Dad Surprises Daughter With Return From Iraq

By Sheeri Mitchell June 6, 2009 7:39 am


From The Today Show

The joy on this little girl’s face moved my heart.  What a beautiful picture of a father-daughter relationship.  I believe it is just a glimpse of what it will be like when we get to see our Father in glory. Enjoy this reunion, Family. Please leave your comments. They will post once approved.  Thank you!

    OMG!!!That was sooo touching because my son in law was deployed 2006-2007 and when he came home my grandson had the same reaction he was 4 yrs old. All I can say is I have alot of “RESPECT” for the MEN and WOMEN who are serving our country to leave their FAMILIES may GOD BLESS them all.

    When I saw the little girl over-whelming tears of joy I immediately started crying. Because of the unconditional love between father and daughter.

    Just imagine just for one second if that little girl was you and the father was God.

    Peacefully yours,
    Sharon

    OMG….this video brought me to tears. My boyfriend just left for Iraq, so this really hit home for me. I can’t wait to experience this in March.

    I am so overwhelmed by this video. I have a brother whom I have never met that is overseas in Iraq. I miss him dearly, though we have never even met. I cannot imagine what it must feel like as a child to not have your father for your entire school year & then be surprised! I am in major tears right now. The father/daughter love was so evident, and my heart is so touched. Thx for this video.

    I am in Iraq at this time have been out here since March & I cannot wait to feel the same way from my son. I know it is hard for me but I know it will not last forever being away from my son.
