It was late when he asked, even later when I crawled in bed next to him. He scooched right into my arms. It felt so good to be needed by my middle who never asks for much.
Shortly after this picture was taken we switched. He opened his arms to me and I cuddled up into his arms, closed my eyes and felt the shift. His arms wrapped around me, his hand resting on mine and I felt his ability to take care of me. With my eyes closed and his arma wrapped around me, it didn’t feel like a childs hold.
There are moments that he seems so young at heart and others, like this, when I am reminded that he will be grown one day too.
