Poppa came runnin home today, he ran right to Momma I stood behind the door listenin in even though I shouldnt. I over heard that they may be sendin the soldiers home, Poppa said dont get your hopes up but the boys may be comin home! All that went through my head was that they would FINALLY be home! I wont have to worry no more and I would get to see them for the first time in 4 months! I hope this is true! Poppa told Momma to prepare just in case they showed up, they could even come back in a few days. This has to be true, no one passes rumors around about stuff like that. Why get your hopes up? this cant be a joke, right?
Owen's birthday was 5 days ago, he turned 15! The youngest of them all, growin up and becomin a proper young man. This war may change him. Hopefully he wont change, I hope neither of the other boys. Things have definitely turned a page, nothin can get any better! I have to go tell AnnaMae! shes gonna be just as excited as me! Maybe her brother will come home just like mine can, and everything will go back to the way it was. Finally that government and president of our is makin common sense. No need to put anyone else in danger than we need to!
