Video shows daughter in Texas asking stepdad to adopt her

A tear-jerking video shows the moment a cheerleader surprises her step-father with a card that asked him to adopt her.

The unidentified family had just arrived at what appears to be a football game at Lamar University in Texas when the cheerleader hugged her step-dad. 

She then hands him a card. As he opens the card, other family members are gathered around patiently waiting for the sweet moment.

‘He’s going to cry,’ one of the family members is heard saying in the video. 

Seconds later, as the man opens the card, he immediately places his hand over his mouth in shock. 

The tearful man then walks around in a circle before hugging his step-daughter. The pair then hug again before he reads the entire card. 

And once again he tries to hold back his tears and puts his hand over his eyes. 

‘Of course I will,’ he tells his step-daughter as they hug for the third time. 

It’s believed the sweet moment took place before a football game at Lamar University, which is located in Beaumont, Texas.
