Homecoming
November 8, 2013
They run in slow motion and find each other in the center of an airport lobby. He swings her around in a circle. His daughter hasn’t seen him in a few months. People surrounding them clap and cheer and some even cry happy tears. Seeing an army veteran be reunited with his daughter has lit up their day. He places her on his shoulder, commenting on how much bigger she's grown. His wife comes over next, carefully walking. It is obvious that their second child is on the way. They embrace and walk away with people still watching them and cheering.
