We've all have seen viral videos of soldiers returning home. They are all heartwarming and so sweet, but this one is particularly adorable. 

A group of 300 deployed men and women returned home yesterday to Fort Carson, Colo. to see their loved ones after a long 8 months away, but one family member could not be held back for longer than a few seconds.

Karas Oglesby couldn't wait to greet her daddy; so much so that she even broke military protocol to race into his arms. Can you blame her? Father and daughter haven't seen each other in eight months!

Returning soldiers are supposed to wait for a formal welcome from a commander, after which they are dismissed and can greet their loved ones. But the adorable little girl probably didn't read the rule book and was only interested in seeing her father.

Her father, Daniel Oglesby told KKTV, "She was excited. She spotted me from a couple rows back and she couldn't contain herself. I wasn't gonna tell her no." 

The sweetest part of the video is the excitement on Karas' face after she was reunited with her dad. Life Lesson: You are cute enough to break the rules, cutie-pie!
