I live for moments such as this

I got a call during dinner that mother was out of some supplies, and instead of waiting till tomorrow, I drove over after dinner so she’ll have her Ensure later this evening and tomorrow morning, too.

She was in bed, her eyes closed, but when I touched her right palm, she half-opened them and gave me the faintest of smiles. Not much, but it was enough for me.

I told her I’ll see her tomorrow and she gave a brief nod before drifting off to sleep again.
