6 year old Heather sings another song with her mom, Cindy. Comin' Home was written by Cindy and is dedicated to her oldest son, Shaun, and all our soldiers and their families.
They were able to perform it in person for Shaun when he came home on leave recently.

Lyrics:
He lays on the cot and looks at the ceiling of the tent he's called home for almost a year,
His bags are all packed and his uniform hangs sporting another rank on his sleeve, but he's ready to leave.
(chorus):
Church bells ringing, strike up the band,
The parade is comin' down the street,
Well, it might not be all that,
But in our dreams when you get back,
That's the way you're welcomed when we meet...
(You're comin' home)
Mom, you make your chocolate cake,
And Grandma we love those pies you bake,
We'll probably rent some movies and I'll get to stay up late,
Let's celebrate! Our soldier's comin' home!
She waits in the hanger for his plane with a baby in her arms, it hasn't been easy,
And a little boy stands beside his Grandpa who took him in, he can't wait to see Mom's face and to have her home safe.
(chorus)
Church bells ringing, strike up the band,
The parade is comin' down the street,
Well, it might not be all that,
But in our dreams when you get back,
That's the way you're welcomed when we meet...
(You're comin' home)
Mom, you make your chocolate cake,
And Grandma we love those pies you bake,
We'll probably rent some movies and I'll get to stay up late,
Let's celebrate! Our soldier's comin' home!
(Bridge)
We've been waiting so long for this day, keepin' the faith.
We can't thank you enough for all you've done for the U.S.A.!
(You're comin' home)
Mom, you make your chocolate cake,
And Grandma we love those pies you bake,
We'll probably rent some movies and I'll get to stay up late,
Let's celebrate! Our soldier's comin' home!
