Embosomed

I’m feeling very happy. I just had my kids on either side of me with their heads on my chest, and their arms draped around my waist. I sniffed their hair and kissed their heads repeatedly as I sang, “It’s double huggy time! It’s double huggy time!” There is nothing that makes me more delighted than sharing warm closeness with my precious children. The rule is that it’s not over until we have thoroughly squeezed and snuggled--with a few ticklish pokes thrown in for giggles--for at least five minutes. My kids will only be released after they have planted kisses on both of my cheeks.

Our affectionate embrace made my day!

I remember how that feels. I even wrote a song by that name.
