Incredible Reunions...

Some pictures are worth a thousand words and behind every picture is a story. This month will see hundreds of thousands of soldiers returning from Iraq. For some of these soldiers they've been serving overseas for multiple tours, adding up to years. For many of these soldiers it means leaving a family back home. One of the most incredible feelings in the world is when you return home from a trip somewhere and your family or friends are waiting to greet you at the airport. Many of us have experienced this and would agree :) Think about the jubilation of families being reunited after one of the parents returns home from serving in the war. Think about soldiers seeing their spouse and children after being gone for over a year. I'm not here to agree or disagree with the war, but am wanting to appreciate those who have served overseas in our military. The sacrifice they've made, whether it's being on the battlefront, or leaving their family, the sacrifices are amazing. If you've ever seen soldiers being reunited with their family, words really can't describe it. It's incredible! This next month will see multitudes of soldiers being reunited with their loved ones. You will hear about and see the bonds of love that can't be broken by distance or time. You will see rejoicing and celebration. Thank you soldiers for your sacrifices and I look forward to seeing and hearing about many incredible reunions that will soon take place.
