Surprising My Daughter At College For Freshman Move In
By a friend • August 18, 2026
I'm currently sitting on a plane 30,000 feet above land on my way to Louisiana to surprise my daughter for move in for her freshman year at LSU.
I and we have managed to keep the secret for over 2 months when I booked my flight.
She's currently traveling there with my wife on a different flight and has no idea I'm coming.
To give a little backstory, I didn't think I was going to be able to go because 1 - I took her in April to tour the school as she was making her choices and 2 - well, work.
It's a terrible time for me to be away but then father's day happened and she wrote me the most beautiful letter about all the things I've done for her throughout her life and "I was her best friend". She cried when she wrote it and she cried as I read it. After I got that letter I said to my wife "I have to go" and immediately figured out work and booked my flight.
Fast forward to today, I dropped off a sad and crying daughter with my wife at the airport then went to park the car and catch my own flight so here we are. Only issue is my flight is 2 hours delayed to N.O. so instead of meeting them in the airport, I'll be 2 hours behind them and will need to Uber to LSU.
Honestly, don't care. Small issues in the grand scheme of things when I get to see her face when I surprise her. I can't wait.
Anyway, hopefully this makes someone smile today 😊
