I can tell you from my own experience, that will be a WONDERFUL reunion and you better be ready for days and days of all the loving you can handle. Plan not to have anything in your lap but a cat, plan to have them sleeping close at night, better go to bed early and plan on a love session before you are allowed to go to sleep. You will have them follow you everywhere in the house that you go. I have been home 2 weeks now and I am still not allowed to sit without one in my lap or to go to bed and go right to sleep. They have just quit following me everywhere in the house.. Hay, it IS wonderful when they miss you and homecoming is so sweet! GET READY for it!
