Best Gift in the World

The morning today was awesome. Like a single mom, I basically dragged two overgrown kids to get ready for school. Showers, breakfast and a quick check on school bags.
7.45am was considered real late by Nana's standard so I promised her to walk her to class. Prefects won't ask much. She would be saved. Great morning to spoil a diva.
As we reached her class, Nana excitedly dropped her bag onto her chair before running off to meet me back at the door. Like a real pro, she planted three kisses on my cheeks and forehead without even me ASKING! I had to giggle hard before grinning slowly.
"That's not enough"
She was horrified, unable to believe what she just heard.
"A hug. I need a hug"
And so, without even fighting back, Nana opened up her small arms and gave me her best teddy bear hug I could ever ask. I melted in her warmth. Yes, her evil big sister was defeated by a simple act of a child's love.
The best gifts in the world are always free. Even the Old Witch has to agree.
