Mom Opens Box On Driveway To Discover Military Son Holding Flowers

A shocked mom thought she was opening a box containing a new lawnmower – only to be surprised by her military son. Eva’s son, Mark is currently a 2nd Lieutenant with the United States Air Force, and ahead of the surprise he’d been at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, for three months. Mark hadn't told his parents he was set to come home, and when he needed a way to surprise his mom, he liaised with his friend, Wayne, who came up with the idea. Wayne had just purchased a new lawnmower, and so he contacted Mark's father and said that he no longer needed his old one and would gift it to him for free. It was Mark's mom, Eva, though, who came out to open the box outside of her Connecticut home. The moment took place in March 2018, when Mark was still a cadet, but Wayne did not share the video until 2022.
