&quot;Life&#039;s like a novel. With the end ripped out. The edge of a canon. With only one way down.&quot;<br /> -Rascal Flatts (Stand)

A loud engine racing to the driveway, waiting for Hello's.
The muffled sound of a car door closing with great skill.
Heavy boots climbing the few steps anticipating its destination.
Small patter of children's feet coming down the stairs like rain.
The door opening to welcome the smell of fresh oil.
Daddy is home.

I never thought the smell of oil could be so comforting.
