Stacey's Mom
It was so simple:
his two arms around
her, forming such a lovely
shape, one that’s been captured
in so many ways through the years
in so many famous works of art. As
I watched, I couldn’t help thinking how
hugging used to come to us so naturally; we
did it with both girls, and each other, all the time,
yet just now it was like he had to relearn the gesture,
like someone in rehab, learning to walk after an accident.
