Recently, Gina Evans was celebrating one pretty incredible moment in her life: The 14-year-old girl was receiving her black belt in martial arts. The only thing that could make it better? If Dad had been there to watch…
Boy, was she in for a treat. Senior Chief Petty Officer Greg Evans, came back from deployment in Afghanistan, and hid in the bathroom at the event in Jacksonville, FL.
Finally, when Gina walked up to receive her black belt, you can see Greg sneaking up behind her. She has no idea.
The moment she realizes he is there, she burst into tears and hugs him. During the interview she could hardly keep it together; "tears of joy" takes on an entirely new meaning after watching this.
I haven't seen a surprise reunion this touching since Aria and Caroline were surprised by their daddy at school.
"He's just been gone for so long," she says breaking down. "I missed him so much."
"You can talk to them on the phone, you can Skype them, but there's nothing like holding your two little girls in your hands. It feels good," Greg says.
Watch the heartwarming reunion below and please SHARE if you're glad Greg was able to be there on Gina's very special day.
