ST. CHARLES, Mo. - There was not a dry eye in the house as a 3-year-old little girl sat on Santa's lap and asked to see her daddy, her wish was granted.
Year after year, one by one, children climb into Santa's lap and ask for gifts and sometimes miracles.
The scene was no different Sunday afternoon at the Bass Pro Shop in St. Charles.
Three-year-old Madyson's wish? For her soldier daddy to come home. On cue as if it were magic, he appears!
"Daddy!" she exclaimed.
"Hi baby!" he said.
Army Staff Sergeant Josh Pohlman has been in Afghanistan for the past nine months. He says it's overwhelming to hear his daughter ask for him for Christmas.
"It hits me straight in the heart it's exciting to know that she's really excited for me to come home," Pohlman said.
Helping Santa with this Christmas miracle were the elves at Bass Pro Shop.
"This is our way of giving back and we just couldn't be happier to have something like this so close to Christmas," manager Tom O'Donnell said.
