Feel like crying a bit?

If this doesn't bring a tear to your eye....

Dad home from Iraq suprises son:

Video won't play for me, but if it's the same one I saw not too long ago, it brought a tear to my eyes as well.

It was played here as well. The kid will never forget that day.... nor will his Father.

Another video like this played a few weeks ago with another soldier returning home. This time he surprised his son in the classroom with the teacher and kids there. Was really nice to watch.

That was very touching. I bet the other kids appreciated their dads just a bit more when they got home .
