Here at LittleThings, we love celebrating amazing stories of soldiers reuniting with their families and loved ones.
After being away for days, months or even years at a time, I can't even imagine how our brave men and women of the military must feel being so far away from home. People tend to quickly forget how much these heroes choose to sacrifice to keep the rest of us safe. It must be truly heartbreaking to miss important milestones like births, graduations, funerals and weddings, especially for those just starting out a family, like this hero who returns home to meet his first child for the very first time. Even missing the "little things" can make soldiers feel so disconnected from their lives back home.
That's why we love amazing moments like when this family got photo-bombed on vacation by their favorite soldier. Being away for so long is only worth it when you get to come home and be with your loved ones. In this next video, we see the very best proof that family is truly what is most important in one's life. U.S. Army Captain Paul Julian is finally returning home to his wife, young son, family and friends. He probably didn't expect much of a welcome home at the airport, which is what makes this heartwarming moment so special.
Please SHARE this video to show your support and appreciation for our troops who are away from their families!
