something close to sweetness


benny was in a cuddly mood tonight after reading a few books for bedtime.
he was quietly playing with my hair while we rocked in his chair.
at one point, he leaned back to look at me and said, “i lub you, momma,” then plopped his head back on my chest. 
i was about to tell him that i loved him right back when he leaned up again
and whispered in my ear, “but yo haiw is SO messy.”
