This is beautiful! My youngest was a boy, and now he’s grown I wish I’d done more snuggling with him while I could. They don’t invite it as much, but they probably need it more.

And I’m afraid I still didn’t give you the right link for Week X Week.The one you have is static. Please replace it with:

Sorry!

Hmmmmm….

You’ve captured in word what I’ve been feeling so deeply within this heart. My oldest is 8; youngest is 5. And I feel this, too.

Kent, you’re right–she’ll always be my baby girl, even when she towers over me.

Cheryl, thanks so much for your kind words! It’s wonderful to know you still enjoy snuggling with your teen son and daughter. Blessings to you.

This post just melted my heart and brought a smile to my face. A little sigh escaped as I relive my mornings with my little one. She is 5 now and growing bigger every day. I have 3 older children, My oldest daughter, who resides in heaven, my son 18 and my 16 yr old daughter. I can offer you some encouragement here. Even though part of my children are teens and way taller than I, now, they still find their ways to snuggle and hugs all over me. I truly savory those moments because I don’t know how much longer those will last, with the prospect of new adult lives hanging in the winds of life. But, for now I take what I can a breath them in for a little while longer. Thanks for the post. Your writing style gives me such a sense of calm.
