OK, we set up some hidden cameras backstage. 00:00
Right now, we are looking at Ellie and her mother, Vanessa. 00:02
They have no idea that they're going to be our next guests. 00:06
So I'm going to say hi to them right now. 00:09

Oh my god. 00:15

Hi. 00:21
I-- so I saw your video, and I wanted to meet both of you. 00:22
Let's take a look at the video. 00:27
I want to show everybody the video that you sent. 00:28
00:30
[SURPRISED GASP] 00:33
What does it look like? 00:36
Ellen sent Daddy. 00:36
Yeah? 00:39
Can I show you something cool? 00:40
Yeah. 00:41
Okay, hold on. 00:42
00:43
Can you press right here? 00:48
(pre recorded message on teddy bear) Hey baby, it's Daddy, 00:51
I love you guys so much. 00:54
I can't wait for you to be in my arms again. 00:56
I love you. 00:59
[KISSING NOISE] 01:00
Oh my god, that's Daddy! 01:01
01:04
[APPLAUSE] 01:08

01:19
Hi. 01:32
Oh my god. 01:34
Come sit down. 01:36
01:37
You wanna hold that? 01:43
And you wanna hold this? 01:44
Hi. 01:45
I'm shaking. 01:46
I know, it's a surprise. 01:46
You didn't know you were going to be here. 01:47
I had no idea. 01:48
You thought you were going to do something else entirely. 01:49
Oh my gosh. 01:51
OK, so hi. 01:52
Hi. 01:53
That was a really cute little video, 01:54
so that was your daddy's voice. 01:56
Yeah. 01:58
And why did you give her that little bear? 01:58
Well, he joined the-- he joined the military. 02:01
And they're best friends. 02:03
He's never spent a day away from her. 02:05
So, he knew he wasn't going to-- 02:07
he knew he wasn't going to be here for her birthday, 02:10
so I went-- 02:12
we planned it so that way she can feel like he's really here. 02:14
How long has it been since you've seen him? 02:17
September 17th. 02:19
September. 02:21
So you how do you keep in touch? 02:22
We write letters every single day. 02:23
That's great. 02:25
Every single day. 02:25
Because he's not able to tell you where he is 02:26
or get in touch, yeah, OK. 02:28
And your relationship, you're really close with your dad, 02:30
right? 02:32
Yeah. 02:32
Really, really close. 02:33
It's a very special relationship. 02:34
Mmm hmm. 02:35
So you get to hear his voice all the time? 02:36
Yeah. 02:38
All right. 02:39
So you send letters, and he can't be here, 02:39
obviously as we know, but we thought 02:42
that we would maybe be able to talk to him right now. 02:45
So David, are you there? 02:49
[APPLAUSE] 02:50
02:52
How are you guys? 02:53
How are you doing, babe? 02:55
Baby, I love you. 02:58

I miss-- I miss you so much. 03:00
I miss you so much. 03:03
I miss you, too, baby. 03:04
I miss you too. 03:06
I miss you. 03:07
I want to thank you Ellen, so much for having us 03:08
on this show, Ellen. 03:10

We love you so much. 03:12
Well, I love you, too, and thank you 03:14
for everything you're doing for our country. 03:15

Look at her, you know I love you to the moon and back, baby. 03:44
I know. 03:47
03:47
She knows. 03:50
All right, and Vanessa, anything you want to say to him 03:51
right now besides you love him and miss him? 03:54
Yeah. 03:56
Kind of said it. 03:57
I love you so much babe, I can't. 03:58
[LAUGHTER] 03:59
I can't wait to see you. 04:01
I talk about it all the time. 04:02
I write you every single day, and I 04:04
hope you're getting my letters. 04:05
I can't wait to see you. 04:07
Every day, baby. 04:08
I love you-- 04:09
Can you believe this? 04:09
I'll see you soon. 04:11
Oh my god. 04:12
This is crazy. 04:13
It's crazy. 04:14
We just surprised Vanessa and Ellie 04:15
with David who is it basic training. 04:16
And, so what do you want to do when you grow up? 04:19
I want to do something that is like so cool, 04:22
and that is so fun. 04:25
You want to do-- 04:28
that is a great goal, to do something-- 04:28
good luck. 04:32
[LAUGHTER] 04:33
What we all want to do, something so cool and so fun. 04:35
Do you have any idea what kind of job that would be? 04:37
Yeah. 04:39
Oh, what is it? 04:40
Um, the job is um, that I love to play on my playground 04:41
and I love to do stuff like that. 04:47
[LAUGHTER] 04:49
Again, good luck. 04:51
[LAUGHTER] 04:52
I don't know what that pays, but anyway, that 04:53
will be a good goal for you. 04:56
Maybe that will be a job some day. 04:57
OK, so we want to do something for you 04:59
because I know one of the reasons David 05:02
went to basic training is because there's a lot of debt. 05:04
And so he went into the Army so you 05:07
don't have to struggle anymore. 05:09
Shutterfly, Vanessa, Shutterfly wants 05:10
to help you celebrate this moment 05:13
and give you a check for $25,000. 05:14
[APPLAUSE] 05:16
05:18
All right. 05:26
That's that. 05:28
Thank you so much, Ellen. 05:29
Thank you very much. 05:31
David, it's our pleasure. 05:32
It is our pleasure, David, thank you so much. 05:35
And, because your birthday-- we missed your birthday, 05:38
and I know you wanted an American Girl doll, right, 05:41
is that right Ellie? 05:44
Yeah. 05:45
All right, so look what we got for you. 05:45
Let's walk over here. 05:47
[GASPS] 05:49
Oh my god! 05:51
Look at that! 05:52
05:53
Oh my god. 05:58
05:59
Oh my gosh, babe, this is all for you. 06:02
Look at that, Happy Birthday to you. 06:05
06:08
