Hey everyone! Here's something a little different, maybe a Renesmee and Jacob glimpse? The prompt was a soilder hugging his daughter. I hope you like it!
Thank you so much kitchmill, for everything and more!

Waiting at the airport was tiring. My feet hurt, my stomach growled, and all I wanted to do was put my head down and sleep. My husband rubbed a reassuring hand down my back as he rested his other hand on my growing stomach.
"This was so nice of you," he whispered as he pressed a kiss to the top of my head.
"How could I deny him?" I sighed as I looked down at my two-year-old.
Her head leaned against her stroller as she tried to fight against the sleep that was tugging at her eyelids.
When I looked at her, I saw him. It was hard not to. She didn't match my paleness; instead she got her father's beautiful tan skin. Her hair wasn't bronze like mine, but dark and smooth like his. People at the supermarket would look at my family a little weird. She didn't look anything like my blond haired, blue eyed husband. But that didn't stop him from spoiling her like she was his own.
He came into my life at a very trying time. I didn't know the first thing about being a single parent, and he helped to show me that I might not have to do everything alone.
The sound of clapping snapped me out of my thoughts and I saw the troops as they came in. The crowd was cheering, and there were tears streaming down faces as loved ones reconnected. The smile on my face was wide as I surveyed the scene before me.
It was as if we were attached by magnets. I could feel a pull and there he was. He looked older than before with lines around his eyes, but that didn't stop him from looking any less handsome.
He held my stare until our daughter stole his attention.
"Daddy, Daddy!" she yelled as she ran into his arms.
Watching him cradle her to his chest did something to me. If I never loved him before, why did my heart feel like it was going to burst out of my chest?
