My son flew home from LA...

...this morning and surprised his mother for Thanksgiving. It reminded me a little of the opening scene from one of my all-time favorite movies, The Best Years of Our Lives,* when Homer Parrish is reunited with his family (starting at about 14:27 in the above clip). His mother cries when she sees the hooks that replaced his hands, but Homer's father reassures him that "It's just that your ma is so glad to see you home."

That's kind of how my wife reacted when she saw our son this morning. (Except that he still has his hands.)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

* Haven't seen it? Go out and get it right now.
