When children haven't seen a parent for an extended time due to the parent being in the military, the homecoming can sometimes be overwhelming. There are often tears of happiness as well as tears of sadness for some because they have missed the parent so much.

This military father surprised his son so that he wouldn't have to miss him - even for only a short time.

Airman Cameron Yancey will remember the look on his son's face when he appeared on the front porch for a long time. Yancey was away from his family for several months while serving in the Middle East. Aside from videos and phone calls, there wasn't a lot of interaction, so Yancey's son showed his true feelings when he finally saw his father in person.

This family isn't the only one to experience a parent being away from home because of being in the military. Yancey quietly walks onto his porch and reaches the front door. He knocks on the door instead of going inside, acting like he's a visitor. Cade, Yancey's son, opens the door to see his father standing outside.

After several hugs and a few tears, Cade tells his mother that his father is home. You can hear the joy in Cade's voice as he yells that his daddy is home. At this time, it's heartbreaking and heartwarming to see how much a child misses his parent and how happy the child is to finally see his father.

The little boy tells his daddy that he's missed him, and they hug each other for several minutes. Cade's mother soon joins them on the porch, knowing about the surprise the whole time.
