Being a part of a military family comes with its special set of challenges. For one, there's the worry that something might happen to them while they're out there in the line of duty, protecting all of us back home. Then, there's the simple absence that worms its way down into the depths of your heart. Sure, we can talk to loved ones who spend months abroad, but it's just not the same as having them right there with you, by your side.
Destiny's husband, Eric, was on duty with the U.S. Navy for 67 straight days. That's a long time for any couple to be apart, but for Destiny, this was extra hard for her.
You see, she was holding in a huge secret, and it took everything inside her to not spill the news while Eric was away for such a long time.
When he returned home, Destiny had a tall stack of gifts for her man to greet him. Little did he know that in the very last, golden box, the secret was waiting to be revealed.
This would be a sweet video even without the big surprise at the end. Just the way these two talk to each other tells you how in love they are.
But, the look on Eric's face when he finally does realize what she'd been keeping from him the whole time? It's perfect.
