CHAMPAIGN — It was a breathless moment, then a tearful reunion, as a Champaign woman surprised her children at school Friday when she returned home from serving in Afghanistan.
Cpl. Theresa Brownfield and her kids, first-graders Michael, Carolyn and Caitlyn, and third-grader Matthew, wrapped each other in a giant hug as Brownfield surprised them at Stratton Leadership and Microsociety Magnet School in Champaign.
Brownfield is home from serving a year for the U.S. Army in Afghanistan. She works in human resources and with NATO, and was stationed at Kandahar Air Field.
Her son, Matthew, had been on stage with other third-graders, preparing for a holiday program scheduled for Friday night.
