The Best Part of Waking Up

Last night I told Kaia how much I enjoy cuddling with him in the moments between deep sleep and waking up. In those moments this morning, he came to me, snuggled under the covers and hugged me very tightly and, with his eyes still closed, said:

Papa, I love to cuddle with you in the morning too.

We then slept for another 30 minutes together. Happiness truly is a four year old.
