Could there be more joy
more excitement
more paradise
than when a parent comes home from the military.
We see it often,
kids getting surprised at school
at ball games
at church
just dad coming home finally
or in some cases, it's mom.
That moment,
that very instant when the child sees the long-missed parent
It must be paradise in that child's heart.
