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," said Kim Ingram, SPC Wright's mother. "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 n the airport, before running and hugging her son. After seeing her son for the first time Ingram said, "I'm shaking, I'm so glad"
For Specialist Wright the attention was overwhelming to say the least. "It just feels good to finally be home," said SPC Wright.
But the surprises weren't over with yet, just down the street there were another group of people ready to welcome Specialist Wright home. One man said, "I want to shake your hand brother because I've been there myself. Good to see you home."
Back home with a homecoming he won't soon forget! Another man said, "Thank you for your service, and if's it's ok with you we're going to ride you home and escort you down the road." Law enforcement led the way down the interstate, followed by dozens of bikers, and of course SPC Wright.
