Answer:

D.Love and family make a homecoming worthwhile.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the lines in the excerpt describe it, she is nervous and happy, she was feeling overwhelmed by the fact that she was going to see a member of her family again, as you can read,"With eyes brimming tears she ran to him", brimming is a word used to describe eyes full to their capacity with tears, she was very touched by the sight of him, that why love and family make a homecoming worthwhile.
