The sweetness of small shares, like when we’re sharing a box of candy and she says, “do you want a watermelon?” And I say “sure!” And it tastes SO GOOD!
And then I look at the packet to get some more and realize, “was that the last one?” And she says, “yes,” with the cutest almost-embarrassed-seeming smile, “I wanted you to have it.”
And we’re just in bed like that, grinning down at our hands of candy, happy because we’re next to each other while the summer sun gets ready to go down, and blue raspberry has a funny monster face, and we each want to make sure the other one gets to taste all the flavors … have everything be sweet.
