Upon Returning Home After 2 Years, Soldier’s Daughter Tells Him She Now Has Two Dads

Deja Vu

He believed he was hearing things. The desert heat was getting to him. 

His wife was on the phone with him when he heard something else. Could it have been deja vu?

He wasn’t familiar with the voice either. Something was wrong with the scene at home.

Lonesome On Duty

As Dallas Brosnan stood alone in the desolate desert of Iraq, his thoughts swept between duty and longing.

As part of his duty, he was sent to Iraq. But he wasn’t paying attention to the field at all. 

He had been worried about something for quite some time.

Duty Calls

In Wisconsin, he had bid farewell to his wife and precious 5-year-old daughter a year earlier. 

Despite the emotional turmoil, he was powerless. There was a duty he had to fulfill. 

He was ready to serve his country when he needed to.

Longing For Home

Though he was a serious soldier, his heart belonged to his family. 

There was nothing he longed for more than to be with them again. There was still one year to go.

Their physical gap had been bridged by letters and calls, but Dallas’s heart ached for their warmth, for the laughter they once shared.

Miles And Miles Away

As lifelines to his distant world, Dallas treasured their letters and phone calls. As soon as he saw the sonogram of his baby, he teared up. He was going to have two children soon.

As his heavy gear weighed down on him, the lonely nights were the hardest. 

His growing family, however, kept him going.
