BIRMINGHAM, AL (WBRC) - One Pell City mother got exactly what she wanted for Mother's Day: her son home safe and sound after spending the past year in Afghanistan.
It was all Kim Ingram could do to keep herself composed at the airport in Birmingham. At any moment her son, Specialist Jonathan Wright, would be stepping off a plane and into her arms.
"I'm super excited," Ingram said. "I'm ready to have him in my arms. He's been over there for a year and I have worried the whole time. I'm just ready to get him, and grab him, and hug him, and not let him go."
It wasn't long until Ingram's Mother's Day wish came true. She began screaming before running and hugging her son.
"I'm shaking, I'm so glad," Ingram said after seeing her son.
For Specialist Wright the attention was overwhelming to say the least.
"It just feels good to finally be home," SPC Wright said.
