An Extraordinary Day
I was just going about my regular business- I stopped at the library, picked up some toilet paper and dog food, mailed a few letters, and then went to the grocery store- I had no idea that today was going to be such an exciting day. When I was at the checkout stand at the grocery store, I thought that I heard a familiar voice. I didn’t let myself hope that it could actually be John. I knew I had to be hearing things. But then the voice said, “Mom, turn around!” and all of a sudden, I was holding my baby boy in my arms again. Home from Iraq, safe and sound.
