I have a lot of kids and I work hard at being a good dad so I get a lot of hugs and occasional unprompted “love you”. That is the truest luxury to me.

Oh man, as a new-ish parent I’m starting to get those sudden out of the blue hugs and cuddles and they’re amazing. I don’t know why it didn’t occur to me that my kid would love me but it’s like an instant shot of dopamine every time.

Congratulations. :) You’ve many more to come (hugs that is lol).

The best are the random ones when you’ve had a bad day like we all occasionally do. It all just melts away. Enjoy!
