Reunited

JR got home from scout camp about 9:00 last night. I hadn't been able to attend the family night dinner because of the heat warning and my asthma and allergies. Just not a good combination. I was really disappointed because I really wanted to see him. My husband had called at one point and said that it might be 10:30 or later before he got home and I just started crying. I had my heart set on seeing him and had been fine, but when I thought it was going to be another couple of extra hours my resolve broke. I never let JR know of course, but I begged my husband to go ahead and bring him home. He was filthy, exhausted, hot, thirsty, and apparently hadn't used much sun block, but to me he'd never looked better. He had so many great stories to share and I know that I still haven't heard all of them. More than anything, I was just glad he was home. It reminds me to cherish these days when he enjoys being here as well!
