3rd time lucky

Time for challenge number 3 set by Menopausal Mummaagain some kind of mishap happended on friday and half of it was cut off ....
As we pulled into the drive memories come flooding to he. She had not been here since she left when she was 18. The Family Farm was full of warmth and fun times, but at 18 she just needed to get out. Needed to start her own life.

She went to the city, where she eventually met her husband a magazine publisher and they married and had a son, and now with another one on the way. She decided it was time to take her 2 boys back to the place she had grown up. Where she had learnt to ride a horse. Kick her first ball. run through the fields wind blowing in through her hair.

As the car pulls up she reaches over and honks the horn. Her parents came running to the door, dad clearing the top step running to the car, basically dragging her out the door. To her dad his baby had come home.

As her husband and Logan got out of the car, Logans eyes widened at the sight of the space he had to run, at 2 he had so much energy. As her husband too there bags inside she decided to show Logan where mummie had grown up. Instead of Running through the woods now she walked hand in hand with her baby boy. re-living the momories of the wind in her hair. Running and laughing as a child.

Before she knew it, her dad was calling them in for dinner and it was getting dark, she gathered logan up in her arms and carried him to the house. Together they ate and laughed. With the night closing to an end, she tucked logan into bed and sat with her husband and baby on the porch watching the stars till late.
