This was sent to us today….grab the kleenex…:)
My husband is in 3rd battalion, The royal Canadian regiment. He has been gone for 31/2 months to Poland, On OP Reassurance. Tonight he surprised our 3 1/2 year old daughter and our 8 month old son by arriving at my mothers house dressed as Santa. My daughter was so shocked and so happy to see her daddy! His name is Orion Kenneth Kruse , He is currently a corporal and he has been in the military for 10 years. He joined when he was 19 years old. He has done service in Afghanistan for 9 months . He was also in the honor guard parade in the changing in the colour that happened in Toronto with Prince Phillip. His regiment is 3 The Royal Canadian Regiment. He was also at Vimy ridge for the 100th remembrance day parade. He left for Poland on sept 22nd, my son was 6 months old and has barely seen his daddy. This is a big deal for my family because my children have barely seen or talked to their father. My daughter has no idea what is going to happen. I just want to be able to give my daughter something that she desperately wants for Christmas.. and that is her daddy. She was very disappointed to find that her daddy isn’t home yet and is also a tad worried that santa will forget to drop daddy off at Grammies out (My mothers house). My husband, amongst many others, is a very hard working member of Canada’s National Defense. He goes out of his way for others, Puts his fellow soldiers before needs of his own. I thought that this story would touch others hearts and would give those wives or families that miss their families hope that they will be making it home for Christmas. Please watch the attached video.
