Reunion

Blondie came home from college the next day. She’d been locked down in her apartment while she completed her final semester.  She hugged her mother and me, and told us how thrilled she was to be home.

“Ugly baby brother!” Blondie said to Brat Boy as she hugged him. Clearly she had missed him.

“Mom’s second favorite child,” Brat Boy replied, a big smile on his face. “Third if you count the dog.”

The pandemic was miserable, I thought, but the reunions are going to be sweet.

Today I will be grateful to be reunited with friends and family.
