VIRAL: 2-year-old girl interrupts homecoming ceremony to hug soldier dad
MANILA, Philippines - Karis Oglesby just could not handle her excitement after almost a year of not seeing her soldier father.
A video caught the two-year-old girl run towards her father, 1st Lt. Daniel Oglesby, in a middle of a homecoming ceremony in Colorado this Tuesday.
Wearing her all American outfit, Karis interrupted a military homecoming to embrace her father who was standing in formation for a formal welcome from their commander. It was the first time Karis saw her father after his eight-month deployment in Kuwait.
As any father would perhaps do, the Lieutenant bent down to reciprocate the embrace of his daughter.
The 33-year-old Oglesby told FOX 21 News that he did not have the heart to not give his little baby a hug.
Watch the touching reunion below:
