I know Noah isn't gone, he can't be, but I keep wiping the tears from my face, they just won't stop falling. This is just so beautifully written, I can't help but feel everybody's emotions. Tragic, but lovely.

You write things I would never think of but which are so natural... like the way the soldiers fix their uniforms inside the car and wind up the windows to keep the dust off.

Ethan's reaction somehow makes the moment all the more poignant... his innocence in all of this adult business...

And Luke's reaction... OMG...

Love Aaron's total strength and support of his family is brilliant here!

It's Lucinda that causes everything to hit Aaron like a sledgehammer. It's absolutely no secret that Luke is her favorite grandchild. He's seen Lucinda stare down cancer and send it packing with its tail between its legs, she accepted Luke when he came out without batting an eye and god help the person who didn't, including her own daughter. Aaron has always liked how in charge she is, how fiercely protective she is, how she got things done without carrying on about it, unlike some of the drama queens in this clan. Now, though, she looks stricken, frozen in place and not sure what to do. Except cry. Aaron thinks this is the first time he's seen Lucinda Walsh be anything but strong and unbreakable in the face of things. Seeing her like this rattles Aaron more than anything else and crushes the last part of him that is holding out hope that all of this isn't real.

Damn you know how to make someone cry.
