That reminds me of a time when I was waiting at an airport to pick someone up as a plane discharged it’s oilfield workers for the weekend.

Two little boys, maybe 2 and 5, were running back and forth in excitement, just working off a little energy. All of a sudden the older one looked up and saw his Dad get off the plane. Perhaps he had forgotten why they were there, or maybe he did know, but the wonder and love in his voice as he cried out to his little brother, “it’s Daddy!, it’s Daddy!”, i will never forget.

I mentored a young man who was in prison but released with cancer. His son aprox age 4 had never seen his Dad. Dad went through several sessions of chemo and had to throw up in the waste basket. The son wanted to be like dad so much, he pretended to do the same.

God has created a really strong bond there................
