DH brought me home a new Wedding Band!!!

MomToJade&Jordan wrote: Some of you might remember that I lost my wedding band, probably about 4 months ago. It was like right after DH left. Well he brought me home a new one. It's so perfect. It is about the same size as my old one, but is all in white gold and diamonds. He bought it while he was in Pensacola. He is just so sweet. He almost missed his connecting flight out here last night. The plane that he was supposed to be on would have taken off before he even landed. They held the plane for them. He said when he got on the other plane he thanked some of the stewardesses for holding the plane. He told them that he was trying to get home to me. Could you just die?

I thought I'd include an Email I got a while back, it's sorta long and it says Canadian, and the circumstance is a bit different but it's sorta fitting either way..
I'm glad hubby is finally back

I sat in my seat of the Boeing 767 waiting for everyone to hurry and
stow their carry-ons and grab a seat so we could start what I was sure
to be a long, uneventful flight home. With the huge capacity and slow moving people taking their time to stuff luggage far too big for the overhead and never paying much attention to holding up the growing line behind them, I simply shook my head knowing that this flight was not starting out very well.
I was anxious to get home to see my loved ones so I was focused on
"my" issues and just felt like standing up and yelling for some of these
clowns to get their act together. I knew I couldn't say a word so I
just thumbed through the magazine from the seat pocket in front of me. You
know it's really getting rough when you resort to the over priced, useless
sky mall crap to break the monotony. With everyone finally seated, we just sat there with the cabin door open and no one in any hurry to get us going although we were well past the scheduled take off time. No wonder the airline industry is in
trouble I told myself. Just then, the attendant came on the intercom to inform
us all that we were being delayed. The entire plane let out a collective groan. She resumed speaking to say "We are holding the aircraft for some very special people who are on their way to the plane and the delay shouldn't be more than 5 minutes. The word came after waiting six times as long as we were promised that "I" was finally going to be on my way home.
Why the hoopla over "these" folks? I was expecting some celebrity or sport
figure to be the reason for the hold up. Just get their butts in a seat and lets hit the gas I thought. The attendant came back on the speaker to announce in a loud and excited voice that we were being joined by several Canadian Soldiers returning home from Afghanistan!!! Just as they walked on board, the entire plane erupted into applause. The men were a bit taken by surprise by the 340 people cheering for them as they searched for their seats. They were having their hands shook and touched by almost everyone who was within an arm's distance of them as they passed down the aisle.
One elderly woman kissed the hand of one of the Soldiers as he passed by her. The applause, whistles and cheering didn't stop for a long
time. When we were finally airborne, "I" was not the only civilian checking
his conscience as to the delays in "me" getting home, finding my easy
chair, a cold beverage and the remote in my hand. These men had done for all of us and I had been complaining silently about "me" and "my" issues. I took for granted the everyday freedoms I enjoy and the conveniences of the Canadian way of life I took for granted others paid the price for my ability to moan and complain about a few minutes delay to "me" those Heroes going home to their loved ones. I attempted to get my selfish outlook back in order and minutes
before we landed I suggested to the attendant that she announce over
the speaker a request for everyone to remain in their seats until our
hero's were allowed to gather their things and be first off the plane.
The cheers and applause continued until the last Soldier stepped off and we all rose to go about our too often taken for granted everyday
freedoms......... I felt proud of them. I felt it an honour and a privilege to be among the first to welcome them home and say Thank You
for a job well done. I vowed that I will never forget that flight nor the lesson learned.

MomToJade&Jordan replied: Oh wow I'm right now. I was actually in tears when I thought he wouldn't be home that night. I am going to write a letter to Delta to thank them for holding that plane.
