Santa's heartwarming surprise for this little girl will leave you in tears ...

Good luck watching this without tissues close by!

Last week, Christmas came early for Amelia Knight.

While visiting Westfield Helensvale in Queensland with her mother, the young Australian made a visit to see Santa Claus ahead of the big day.

There was only one wish at the top of her list ... and that was for her Dad to come home in time for Christmas.

So, of course, Santa gave her a surprise she will never forget ...

We're not crying! You're not crying!
