Reassurances

I was lying next to Tobin, waiting for him to fall asleep.  He was feeling chatty, but I wanted to be a good role model, so I stayed quiet while he monologued.

T:  For Halloween, I was a witch.  I still love you.  I wore a hat and a cape.  I went trick-or-treating with Daddy and Bubby, and it was so much fun.  I got candy and it was SO GOOD.

Then he reached over and touched my cheek tenderly and said…

I will always be your grandmother.

 

At that point I burst out laughing and pretty much ruined the quiet mood, but I couldn’t help it.
