welcome home daddy

His plane landed at 3:40pm.

We had already been there since 3.

We brought our signs to hold up and welcome him home.

We could hardly contain our excitement.
 
We enjoyed a snack while we waited.
We wolfed it down because we were so anxious.
We checked the monitor and saw that his plane had landed.
At first we acted a little silly.
We watched for the first signs of people from his flight.
A couple of girls thought their daddy would be the first through the doors.
We saw the first pair of legs coming down the escalator.
We had our signs ready.
Turns out we would have to wait a bit longer.
Is that him?

He's going to be next, right Mom?
 And finally ... the girls spotted him first.
Smiles and laughter erupted throughout the waiting area as the girls yelled for their Daddy.
We weren't going to let him go.

We cheered and chanted Daddy Daddy Daddy as we walked hand in hand.


We are happy!
