Going back to school is never easy but this mom was determined. Her graduation alone is a huge moment, but someone made sure it would be even greater. 
After the passing of her husband, Tondaleya Robinson who is a mom of 3, she decided to go back to school. Having put off getting her degree to raise her children for almost two decades, this is a moment she needed. Once on the stage, she was all smiles receiving her diploma until someone appeared which caused tears of joy and an applause from the crowd. 

It was her youngest son, a U.S. Marine, who ended up giving his mom her diploma that day.
