Haley Bogdon - Mom and Son Reunion at Airport

A military mom spent six long months in Jordan and was not able to see her husband or her two year old son, Bennett.  She would occasionally be able to facetime them, but she was very nervous that he wouldn't remember her when she came back.  The whole family was at the airport awaiting her return and the article spoke about the heartfelt reunion when the son ran and jumped into her arms.  
This article was very emotional and was written for anyone who likes to hear about heartwarming stories.  It also made me think about how women are now the ones going overseas in the military, which historically usually was the men in families.  It also reminded me that even though our country is not at war, the military still has to go to other countries to help protect and rebuild them.  I think that this little boy will be very proud of his mom as he grows up and realizes the sacrifices she made for his country and his freedom.

  1. I agree when you brought up how proud her son would be when he really understands what all his mother had to do while she was overseas at war.
