Soldiers Surprise

( SOLDIERS SURPRISE ) It was getting close to Christmas, and Amy`s heart was sad. Her father was fighting over seas, she really missed her dad. She spoke to santa several times, gave him her Christmas list. Alot of toys and barbies, but there was one thing she couldnt dismiss. Santa asked her several times, what is it that you want the most. My daddy home for Christmas, serving me eggs and toast. Her mom looked at with sad eyes, knowing this couldnt be done. But she kept the news inside her, she didnt want to ruin the fun. Christmas eve they visited family, all the presents were under the tree. Amy looked all over high and low, but her daddy was no place to be. They ate Christmas dinner, poor Amy felt so alone. Mommy`s phone started to ring, it was Daddy on the phone. Daddy I really miss you, I wish that you was here. I miss you too princess, in your heart I`m always there. She handed the phone back to mommy, tears began to fall. A knock was at the door, but Amy stayed alone in the hall. Head between her legs, the night was getting colder. She was so sad inside, then she felt a tapping on her shoulder. She looked up eyes still closed, her emotions were pretty bad. She slowly opened up her eyes, in front of her was her Dad.
