Whenever I even think about a Military homecoming I kinda want to cry…tears of happiness of course! The excitement is just so overwhelming! When Zaira reached out to me and explained that her husband would be returning from Africa in a few months, Lindsey and I jumped on it! This homecoming was going to be a huge surprise! As in, her hubby didn’t even expect her to be in Atlanta with their children in order to greet him at the airport! You see, during the 9 months that her hubby Ricardo was away, Zaira was given a medical diagnosis that prohibited her from making the trip from Tallahassee to Hartsfield with the kids by herself. Enter an amazing person from Ricardo’s unit that was still here in Atlanta. He offered to not only fly down to Tallahassee and to drive her and the kiddos up for the big homecoming but he also arranged transportation for them to return home as a family! Everyone left Ricardo to believe that he wouldn’t see his family until he returned home. Take a look below to see how the surprise went!!! His face was priceless! OH! And try not to cry! 🙂
