The "Specialest"

It's tuck-in time. I'm bending down to give my daughter the hugs and kisses to close out the day.
She says into my ear, "Hugs are the specialest when you're not in a hurry. Are you in a hurry, mom?"
"No," I answer, willing it to be true.
"See, so this hug is the specialest."
I allow myself to fully embrace and be present with my little philosopher.
Connecting in an unhurried way, is indeed, "the specialest."
Thanks for the reminder, little one.
