The sweet spot

Savoring the snuggles
my ten year old son
bounds down the
stairs most mornings
and i close my laptop

he crawls into my lap
and snuggles his head
on my shoulder

he’s getting taller
and has to twist
to find his spot

the day is coming
where we won’t
fit together as easily

until then my heart grins
at this growing child
finding safety in
his mama’s arms
