We went to pick up up Mom at the airport yesterday and I was reminded of the happiest day of my life. Most people would say their happiest day of their life would be their wedding day, the day of their child's birth, or a special vacation. The happiest day of my life was waiting on Matt to arrive at the airport from his deployment.
Caroline and I stood at the airport yesterday waiting on my mother. While standing there I had the feeling of that special day all over again. My throat started swelling and tears started bulging. I smiled big, real big. Thank goodness that anxious day has passed, my husband is home, and our family is as happy as ever.
While standing there I was more observant than the previous visits to the airport. Love is everywhere. People have tears of joy when their loved ones arrive home. If you need a smile, go visit the airport and experience the love.
Jensen and Caroline helped me decorate a few ornaments for our bulletin board. They giggle and fight with sibling love. I just love it! I am reminded of all the time that Jared and I spent growing up giggling and fighting.

I love picking people up at the airport!! It's such a happy reunion and I get teary eyed just seeing people reunite with loved ones. My mom surprised me once by tagging along with a friend to come and visit me. I bawled like a baby when I saw her :) Hope you have a great weekend!!
