World's best parents brought their daughter's stuffed animal to life for Christmas

Try watching this without crying.

More than anything, this little girl wanted her stuffed animal, "Luna" to transform into a real dog.

Her parents granted her wish by surprising their daughter with a real puppy, and caught her tearful reaction on camera.

Her eyes welled up and she began crying immediately, adding, "He's so cute." What added to this magical holiday moment was the big red bow her parents had tied around the pup.
