The wait again is almost over, anxious and excited as we were long ago. The plane that brings you home to us has landed and your days in an unfamiliar land not knowing your own destiny has ended. You've served your country well.
As I watch for you to appear, my heart races and feels like it will burst. My knees knock, my hands shake, my eyes search the crowds rushing here and there. Then suddenly there you are, standing straight and tall before us with a smile that would warm the hearts of angels. Words unspoken, my arms reach to cradle you with love. I don't know how long I hold on. In this moment, time stands still.
When I finally look up, I see Dad patiently waiting his turn, the years of worry and despair on his face relaxed. I could see the joy and pride in his eyes. He gives you a big strong hug, a pat on the back, picks up your baggage and says "We've missed you. Welcome home."]]> http://www.writerq.com/mobile/library/558/welcome-home/ Sat, 23 Aug 2014 19:49:00 +0000 judith eremchuk
