Sweet, sweet reunion...

My dear friend, Jeneil, and her daughters, Rhema and Hope have been without their husband and father for almost a year and a half.  This week, Brandon came home from serving in Iraq and he was able to surprise the girls at their school yesterday.  I was overjoyed to be be able to participate in this moment last night (thanks to Channel 7 news...you can see the video here.) 


By far, the best moment of the week. 

Welcome home!
