School Picture Day has never been more heartwarming.
8-year-old Joshua thought he was just getting his yearly school picture taken, but as he stepped in front of the camera, he was photobombed by someone unexpected: Corporal James Bass, his father!
The photographer who was taking pictures of the kids for Pearsontown Magnet Elementary in Durham showed Joshua his picture and pointed out his father.
Watch Corporal James Bass surprise his son below:
When Joshua said the person photobombing him was his dad, the photographer said, “Your dad? How’d he get in the picture?”
At first, it seemed Joshua didn’t quite understand what was happening, so the photographer turned him around to look at the backdrop, and there was Joshua’s dad, waiting to spring his surprise homecoming!
After an emotional reunion and lots of hugging and kissing, Joshua teased his father, “You still got it.”
Bass had been deployed overseas in Kuwait for a year and was on leave at the time, so he decided to surprise his son and give him a school picture he would never forget.
