Woman's Emotional Reaction When Sister Travels 26 Hours to Surprise Her

Woman's Emotional Reaction When Sister Travels 26 Hours to Surprise Her

Watch this woman’s emotional reaction when her sister travels 26 hours to surprise her. If you were blessed with sisters like I was, you will love this magical moment. I was blessed with two sisters in the mix of five siblings. I learned at the age of five that when my mom brought my little sister home, I had a built-in best friend. Every night was a fun slumber party, except when she wet the bed. 

As we grew older, we drifted apart as I did all the teenage things, and she watched from the sidelines. She often felt left out and did all the things little sisters did. She read my diary (and showed it to my mom). She raided my closet, took my favorite makeup, and hung like a monkey on any boy that I brought home. As for my youngest sister, she saw me more as a mother figure thanks to the 12-year age gap. No matter than fights, or differing ages, my sisters are the people God built into my life to be my cheerleaders and the person who holds all my secrets and knows me inside and out. 

Now, if you’re reading this–I’m taking a wild guess that you read the title and couldn’t help but click on the link because you know what it means to have a sister. You know she is your fierce warrior friend. I imagine life planted you in a different state, and sometimes phone calls, Facebook, and FaceTime can’t possibly substitute for when you really need to see your sister in person. 

If that’s the case, you will melt and maybe get a little misty-eyed when you watch a woman travel more than 26 hours to surprise her sister. I don’t know if the 26 hours is a drive across the country or a flight from California to New York that included layovers and delays. Maybe one sister lives in the states, and the other lives in Australia. Either way, this woman did a marathon to give her sister a hug in person. Her sister’s reaction is genuine. She is so surprised and shocked that she shrieked loud enough to make her niece cry. But the moment they hug is endearing. I hope these two had a chance to stay up late, catch up on life, and share their fears, doubts, and dreams. 

May this video be the inspiration to do something special for your own sister. She will be just as blessed as you.
