What the world needs now is love, sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No not just for some but for everyone........

Timmy arrived today!!!!  He flew into DC for the first time and the smile on his face when he arrived just made our hearts swell.  Timmy is the epitome of sweet love.   I was able to get through security and meet him as he exited the plane.  Heather, unbeknownst to Timmy, was waiting in the Terminal.

My 30 minute wait for Timmy seemed like hours.  But soon a steady stream of passengers appeared and there was our sweet Timmy.  The look on his face as he exited the terminal was priceless.  Finally, Timmy was back home with us.  As I was hugging Timmy, a nice woman approached and said "you must be Lisa."  She told me she had a delightful conversation with Timmy and she said she was so thankful that she met him.

Timmy also told me that he introduced himself to the flight attendant and said "Hello, my name is Timothy Loughlin and you get to help me today."  How sweet is that.  Timmy proudly announced that the pretty flight attendant even gave him a big hug after they landed.  

Timmy and I then exited to the terminal and Heather was waiting with sign that said "Welcome Timmy!!."  Timmy was so surprised to see Heather.  He had no idea she was at the airport.  They both cried tears of joy.  People actually stopped and smiled.  Imagine that.

As we continued to baggage claim, Heather, Timmy, and I walked hand-in-hand.  We were giggling, smiling and sharing stories.  I can't tell you how many people paused and watched this precious moment.  It is almost like they wanted to partake in our journey.  They saw the joy and love.

A bonus was arriving home and Mick joining us for the weekend.  Perfection.   Timmy and Lassie's cousin Mick.

I hope you experience some love today.   I will.  As I have said before, everyone should spend a day with Timmy.  Timmy's world is filled with love, not hate.  He doesn't have a mean bone in his body.  He doesn't live with regret or fear.  He looks forward to what tomorrow brings. He cherishes his time with family and friends.  He accepts and welcomes everyone into his life.  
As the song says........What the world needs now is love, sweet love.....No not just for some but for everyone.
