Home At Last

Keith finally arrived home safe and sound from Germany on Saturday evening.

The children were so excited on Saturday morning when they realized this was the day Daddy comes home. Makenna asked me probably 100 times when it was time to go pick up Daddy. He was supposed to arrive around 5:00 p.m. that day. As time got closer, I continued checking his flight on my Blackberry to make sure it would arrive on time. When we arrived at the airport, the board indicated it would be a little later than I had anticipated. I tried to keep the kids busy. They enjoyed running around outside in the courtyard. We even ended up having supper at the airport counter service area. The kids thought it so much fun sitting up at the counter. All during this time, though, Keith's flight was being delayed more and more. Finally, I took the kids and went to Starbucks for a treat and to kill time. On our way back, Makenna spotted Keith's plane in the air making it's approach for landing. Daddy was home at last. They ran to him as fast as they could when they saw him.

Keith, we're glad that you had a good trip, but are even happier that you are now at home with us where you belong.
