Mom's Jaw Drops When 'Best Friend' Airman Daughter Surprises Her

A mom sobbed tears of joy when her ‘best friend’ daughter returned home from deployment with the U.S. Air Force in Africa to surprise her with a bouquet of flowers after seven months apart. Jasmine Taylor, 25, from Rochester, New York, shares a close bond with mom, Angela, 47, who she calls her best friend. Before her deployment overseas, Jasmine, a staff sergeant, had never been away from her family support network for such a long time. As the months apart rolled on, the separation was intense and sad for both mother and daughter, and due to the political climate in Niger, where Jasmine was based, her deployment was extended twice. And so, when Jasmine received news she could head home, she couldn't wait to reunite with her mom. With the help of her aunt, Elisa, Jasmine snuck into a local Cheesecake Factory, on May 23, where her mom was seated inside. Jasmine then made her way through the restaurant, carrying a bouquet of flowers before tapping her mom on the shoulder.
