Nothing. Beautiful Nothing.

I can count the number of times it has happened without taking off my shoes, so when Mila says, "Sit down," I sit down. It's a rare thing for her to decide it's time to snuggle, but dooooooo it. It's the best when she's in the mood.

That's all it took. The simple words, "sit down" and a tiny dimpled finger pointing at the couch. I sat down exactly as I was told and Mila promptly crawled into my lap and nuzzled in. A peaceful bliss settled in, but then was shattered as the Big Kid came crashing into the room.

"Hey! If there's going to be a girl party, I want in!" she said.

I made room.

We sat there for far longer than we should have, just the three girls, quietly enjoying being with one another. There was later a price to pay as I had a giant pile of things that had to be done after the girls went to bed, but oh well.

We snuggled on the couch. That's it.

Sometimes the best thing about a day (or week, or month ...) is that little window of time when you did nothing.
