There are just some moments in life that make us lose all pretense of keeping “cool.”
We’ve all experienced a moment when you stop caring about how you look and get completely lost in the excitement of what’s happening. It’s always a beautiful sight, especially when it happens to a big, tough guy whom you’d never expect to get mushy!
YouTube
Late last year, Jenny Romero shared a video that shows her dad getting one of the best surprises of his life, and now the clip is going viral because it is just plain adorable.
Jenny and her husband are expecting their first baby in June, so they decided to share the good news with her dad by presenting him with a gift.

While the entire family is gathered at the dinner table, Dad is hanging out without a shirt on, and he looks like someone you wouldn’t want to tangle with. Yet we’re about to find out that underneath his tough-guy exterior is a big ole softie!

Dad unwraps the present and discovers a T-shirt inside. He holds it up and reads the front, which says, “I can’t keep calm my oldest is pregnant.”
Suddenly, the realization of what this means dawns on him, and his reaction is out of this world.

“WHAT?!” He yells, turning to Jenny’s husband, who’s grinning from ear to ear next to him. “Are you kidding me?”

The grandpa-to-be then proceeds to squeal like a little girl! He’s completely beside himself with the good news and rushes over to lift his daughter up off her feet in a massive bear hug.

You can feel the pure joy emanating from dad’s smile, and the rest of the family is all smiles as they bask in the happiness of the moment.

Judging by the excitement this dad exhibits in the video, this is going to be one lucky grandbaby.
After Jenny shared her father’s awesome reaction, the clip was uploaded to Reddit, where thousands have fallen in love with his response. Some of the comments sum up our thoughts perfectly:
