Moments

Colin hasn't felt well this weekend, and tonight he is snuggled in bed with me. And laying here I was thinking about this moment. Not yesterday, or tomorrow, or next year, but right now. About how this little boy has turned to me for comfort. How he wrapped his arms around my neck, nestled both hands in my hair, rested his forehead against mine, and found solace.

I hugged him back, realizing how precious and fleeting the moment was. And thought that I will treasure this memory for the rest of my life.

What a lucky woman I am.
