Reunited

A friend with whom I work, J, has a son who has been in Iraq for a little over eight months. They were in frequent contact with one another, except for the last month when she hadn't heard anything from him.

Then, on Friday, he showed up at work! She was so happy and relieved to see him, it was such a sweet reunion. He's only home for eighteen days and will return to Iraq, but I know they are both thrilled to be home and I hope they savor the next two and a half weeks.
