Not just wishing you were with someone is the problem. Service members must miss weddings, funerals, and even births of loved ones.<\/p>\n
Skyler Cooper likely thought of the latter during his seven months in Kuwait as a Kansas Army National Guard soldier. His wife Cydney was expecting and had two small sons, Leighton and Corbett, adding to the tension.<\/p>\n
You see, Cydney was expecting twins. According to Her View From Home, Skyler was expected home in late April.<\/p>\n
When she got the flu at 33 weeks, she had to give birth early. Since she had two other children, Cydney went home while Emma and Kyla stayed in the NICU.<\/p>\n
She was quite busy afterward with all the hospital commotion.<\/p>\n
She said she was \u201changing on by a string\u201d.<\/p>\n
She had no idea a pleasant surprise was coming. While holding one of her 2-week-old babies in the hospital, her husband texted to inquire how they were doing.<\/p>\n
Skyler entered with an American flag balloon and flowers moments later.<\/p>\n
Despite arranging the surprise for weeks, he couldn\u2019t have guessed his wife\u2019s reaction.<\/p>\n
The event was emotional, as expected. Watch the video below with tissues:<\/p>\n
