Grandmother is Speechless When She Sees What’s Waiting Outside Her Door

Can anyone deny that there’s something so special about having grandkids? There’s truly nothing like the love a grandparent can have for his or her granddaughter or grandson.

Having your own son or daughter is one thing, but being a first-time (or even second-time parent) is when you’re experiencing joys of having children for the first time. And that has it’s own place for being special. But there’s something so heartwarming about when grandparents get to watch their babies grow up and have their own babies.

It’s no secret that grandparents have a special bond with their grandkids. So imagine the feeling a grandmother or grandfather gets when they meet their grandchild for the first time? There’s truly nothing like it.

One grandmother got to experience this—and her touching reaction was captured for all to see. And it’s probably one of the most loveable things we’ve seen all day.

It was a cold winter night right around the holidays when this woman got to finally meet her granddaughter for the first time. And it was a total surprise to her. Her son was planning the surprise for about a month, and planned it out to a T. So much so that she definitely had absolutely no idea.

For the holidays, this woman’s son decided to fly in to the states from Japan with his young baby girl that his mother hadn’t gotten to meet yet. Since he lives so far away, the grandmother wasn’t quite sure when she was ever going to get the chance to meet her granddaughter. And we can tell you right now, we can guarantee she certainly didn’t expect to meet her in the way she did!

The son didn’t tell his mother his plan at all. In fact, he just showed up at her doorstep with the baby in tow!

When the grandmother opened her front door, you can tell she was a little confused at first. While it took her a second to realize what was going on, moments later she totally freaked out in the sweetest way! The son was standing behind his baby who was in a carrier holding a sign that said “home for the holidays” on the ground.

In between tears, the grandmother scoops up the baby in her arms and tackles her with hugs and kisses—you’ve never seen something so sweet! She continues to sob and hug her granddaughter so tightly, like she never wanted to let go. We’re not crying, you’re crying!

You could tell that this woman was wholeheartedly surprised and never expected this to happen to her. She asks through tears how her son pulled it off, and even says in the video that this was the best present ever she’s ever had in her life. Cue all the awwwws.
