A stunned mom was left screaming in shock as she opened a giant box to discover her military-serving daughter, who she had not seen in nearly two years because she was stationed overseas. As soon as Ruthie Patterson, 58, opened the box to discover Porsha Patterson, a sergeant in the United States Army, she immediately began screaming and then headed in for a tear-filled hug with her daughter. Porsha last saw her family in Dothan, Alabama, in August 2020, when she moved from being stationed in Washington State to Japan, where she is still currently based. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Porsha was not able to take leave – something she had always looked forward to in the past, given how close she is to her family. Having got the news that she could head home in May 2022, Porsha began to speak to her brother, a truck driver, who is rarely home but is also extremely close to his mother. While Porsha's cousin distracted Ruthie, Porsha and her brother set up a giant box in their mom's yard, and Ruthie was then called outside to check out her Mother's Day gift, before surprising her mom.
