How to melt my heart

7am Saturday morning. Trying to sneak in an extra half-hour sleep.

The boys' door opens and I hear B's staccato steps as he skips past our room-- with one quick detour: small silent fingers slide my stray foot back in under the covers and tuck the duvet back neatly around it...
