Finally

It's here. Today is finally here. Six hours and I will have my first born home with me. I called and she is at the airport. She will be here. I don't even know what to do with myself. I'm just spinning around smiling. Six hours. Today. Mallory. Her room is ready. The house is ready. The kitchen is stocked. The Prodigal Child returns. Today. Soon. Home.
Got confirmation yesterday from The Mother. As of right now,,they will all be here for Thanksgiving. A house full. A good thing. Let's see,,,that will be 11 for Thanksgiving dinner. Possibly more. Excellent. Big turkey. Big Feast. Firewood will be delivered later today in anticipation of cool weather. The fireplace is an excellent distraction for my Daddy. Of course since I'm the one that will have selected the firewood there will be cause for a wee lecture. It will be of the wrong variety and stacked incorrectly I'm sure. What are Daddys for if not to lecture?
Must get ready now. Will she recognize me? She's coming home. Today.
