there's something about a hug {the last day of school 2018}

There's something about a hug. Whether you're the giver or the receiver, there's just something about a hug that changes your demeanor, the way you hold yourself together, the way I imagine that the brain lights up when love is given to another human being.
 When you go from this...
 to this...
because you love and adore your TK teacher. He told me that he wants to stay a kid forever and stay in Mrs. C's class. Frankly, I share his sentiments.
You might decide on your own to hug your principal 
and then before you know it, 
your brother joins in because he wants a hug from the principal, too!
 Sometimes you stand cheek to cheek because you're a special team that works together to make going to school okay, even when it's the hardest mountain to climb.
And suddenly, when you're side by side, it's inevitable that your team will send you off with an embrace to let you know one last time before summer, that you mean the world. 
They meant the world to me, too. I couldn't have taken care of my sweet girl without them.

Yes, there's just something about a hug that makes the world go round, especially when it comes from the sweetest first grade teacher.
 And then there's the newly turned seventh grader in his aviators picked especially for vacation.
The best part? He's coming toward me for a hug.
It's that something that life just wouldn't be the same without.
