Sandra stood by the train waiting for Sam. For sure he was going to see her leave town. A small tear poked out of her eye when she thought of him. How was he going to cope the two months she was away. How would her children cope....

She turned away from the train too sad to look at it. Then she saw the red minivan with five children and one man in it.

'They made it' was all she thought. The frown that was on her face soon turned to a smile.
  "Children, Sam, you made it. I, I thought you weren't coming," Sandra smiled.
  "Of course we made it did you really think we wouldn't come!" Sam said while he laughed.

Sandra was so overwhelmed with happiness that she grabbed her five children up in a bear hug. She squeezed them tightly, like she wouldn't see them again. But she knew she would. She left Sam for last and hugged him the tightest. Sam eased away Sandra's grip on him.
  "A goodbye kiss," he whispered.
Sandra leaned in and kissed Sam like it was the last day they would see each other.
  "Eww," shouted the kids.
Sandra and Sam pulled away from each other and laughed.
  "Well I'm gonna miss these moments," said Sam.

He then waved goodbye to Sandra while she took her seat on the train. As the train started to move a tear peeked from her eye as she watched the city lights go by.
