I felt a tug on my sleeve the other night. I looked down to see Jake, a grin on his face and a mischevious gleam in his eyes. "I have something for you," he said, his voice almost a whisper. I braced myself for a wiggly worm, a water balloon, or on the tamer side, a new card trick. These are the kinds of things a mother like me is presented with from boys like mine. But no. Jake pulled a small bunch of flowers from behind his back and thrust them toward me.
"Aww, for me?" I asked. Jake nodded. And so I had to take a picture to remember the moment. Although I think I probably would have even without it.
awwww. Be still, my heart.
