Embrace

Around the house, I have been holding Veronica’s hands because we have kept the lights off, and the floor is full of challenging rugs and thresholds.  Twice during the night she stopped and hugged me.  I thought she was working on dizzy spells, but I was wrong again, she just wanted a hug.  They reminded me of the hugs that Nolan gives us.  I usually take for granted Veronica and I’s physical closeness.  We can go 5 days without touching each other or 5 minutes.  The last couple of days I have felt close to her but had forgotten how much I like when she hugs me.
