A NSV!!
I know this is a little silly, but I was SO excited!!!!!
One of my close friends that I haven't seen in a while came by to see me tonight and brought her 10 yr old son.
He ran up to give me a hug and he could reach all the way around. I know this because he clasped his hands together to make the hug tighter...
It made me so happy because usually when like my nephews would give me hug there hands would stop about middle waist.
Then my GF couldn't stop telling me how good I was looking and how impressed that she was.
Things like this may seem little but they are REALLY big in so many ways!
I knew there was always a reason that I liked hugs so much..

I hope you keep getting more hugs that make you feel so wonderful. You deserve them! You are doing a wonderful job!

As an elementary teacher I get lots of hugs from kids and I've been noticing the same thing as you. Their arms go all the way around now. It is such a fantastic feeling... both the hug and the fact that it can be a 'total' hug. At my biggest, they could really only get their arm around my side.

Keep basking in the warmth of those hugs.

Take care,

Sli, that's lovely. It's not little at all... it's huge... and I'm so happy for you.

Aren't total hug the best!!!
I think that hugs are great regardless of where the reach, the help you no matter if you are happy or sad!
Thank both of you ladies for the very kind words!!

Congratulations, that does feel so wonderful when the hugs fit all the way around. Great job.

That is great!!!! Bet it felt wonderful! It's NOT a small thing either! If it makes you feel good it's a huge accomplishment! That's what this is all about, us feeling good!
