After six months apart, 7-year-old Leila is about to see her mom again.
Taylor Mason has been on military deployment in the Middle East. The 29-year-old single parent had never been separated from her daughter before, so the distance has been hard on both of them.
When Mason received her return date, she decided to surprise her little girl at school in Hampton, Virginia. As young Leila eats her lunch in the gymnasium, a special visitor walks in and turns what started as a regular day into one like no other.
Watch this 7-year-old's emotional reaction in the video below when her mom returns home
