Love by the Limbs

For the past few days a 6-yo has been sleeping with his parents instead of his siblings, due to nightmares and other scary things..like his brothers!

Yesterday, he was lying between his dad and mom and I pulled him near me for a cosy hug. But he always feels the need to showcase his loyalty to his mom somehow (to ensure he gets the next meal, maybe). 

Then he turned his torso to be perpendicular to both of us and while having both hands on me, wrapped his legs on his mom's tummy and declared-

"With my hands I'm hugging Appa, with my legs I'm lugging Amma!" and promptly went to sleep.
