A Virginia elementary student on Friday had his wish granted by Santa Claus on the spot.
With just a week until Christmas, one first grade classroom at an elementary school in Stafford, Virginia, received a surprise visit from Santa. The man disguised as Santa was Marine Staff Sergeant David Rescott, who recently returned from an eight month deployment in Kuwait, according to WTTG-TV.
He used the opportunity to surprise his son, Jackson, about his return home.
According to WRIC-TV, once it was Jackson’s turn to tell Santa what he wanted for Christmas, he wished for a new Xbox and his dad to return home.
That’s when Rescott began to remove his costume piece by piece to reveal a bit of “Christmas magic.â€
“I think I have a bit of Christmas magic for you,†Santa told Jackson.
There’s no doubt Jackson was suprised. With his jaw wide open, he embraced his dad and said, “I love you.â€
