Reunions ...

Being away from home sure does make you appreciate your loved ones. I was in TO working last week, and "my ladies" missed me terribly. Nice to know you're loved.

To show them that being away a week was not the end of the world I showed them a video that aired on CNN Friday. The story was about a sailor, just home from Iraq after being away 7 months. He surprised his 6 year old son at school, who was unaware of his father's return home.

The piece comes from KING 5 News in Seattle, "Tears of Joy" . If your eyes don't well up at the sight of that little boy's face, you had better check your pulse.

My heart bleeds for all of those poor children whose parents won't return alive from that stupid war.
