I am so thankful to have my boy back home. Between all of the traveling we've both been doing, all of the traveling he's been doing for work, and the 8 day hunting trip he just went on, we haven't spent much time at home together lately. So for us all three to be home this whole week has been so very, very nice.
I am not a snuggler when I sleep. I want my space, I want to be curled up in my covers, I want to bend and twist and turn comfortably, I don't want to be touched. This is much to my boy's dismay as he usually tries to sneak a hand or a foot over to my side... Negative. I'm reminded of Ross's "hug and roll" technique on Friends...except I'm the roller. This girl needs her space to dream!
But this week, I have noticed my feet drifting over to touch my sweet boy's legs. After sleeping in that big old bed alone more nights these past few months than I prefer to count, his presence is so comforting. {although you can bet your biscuits that I curl right on back over to my side before I actually fall asleep...}
This is all a long, possibly too detailed way for me to express how thankful I am to have my husband home. Even the smallest moments together make me realize how lonely I had been for him. We've giggled and played with our sweet little petunia a lot this week. And it has been grand.
So enjoy the time you have with your spouse or your significant other or you kids or whomever your love(s) may be... Even give them a little extra snuggle every once in a while :) Because you'll miss it so bad when you can't...
love, angie
