I don't usually do sappy, but I saw this a bit ago on CNN and couldn't help but share. I have a soft spot for the returning soldiers thing and this one definitely is worth watching...(you may want to have a kleenex on hand...)
ETA: The family said that they kept all the little boy's practice walks off facebook (et. al.) in order for this to be a surprise for his dad who had been gone for 7 months.

I don't like sappy either and I avoid these videos like the plague, but that was very, very sweet.

So sweet. I loved how dad just had to scoop him up those last few steps because he couldn't wait another second!
