When Niall was almost 4 yrs. old & I was pregnant Leith, he decided that he was too old to let me kiss and hug on him any more. It was a pretty final decision- he really has not willingly accepted affection from me since.
Today, I began my weekly shift volunteering in his school classroom. When I arrived, he jumped up from his work, ran over to me and gave me a huge hug! He also hugged me again later as I prepared to leave.
I think I can still feel his arms around my waist.

This one brought tears to my eyes and a lump in my throat. It reminded me of a story I recently saw on tv about a young boy who, surprised when his dad (home from Iraq) appeared at his school classroom door, literally bolted from his chair and ran to his dads outstretched arms. High fives to you, Niall!
