A Sweet Moment Worth Remembering

Micah and I, walking to school this morning, holding hands:

Me: We're across the street now; do you want to let go of my hand?

Micah: No.

Me: I love it when you hold my hand! Did you know that when kids get older, sometimes they don't want to hold their Mom's hand any more?

Micah, incredulously: WHY?

Me: I guess they think they're too big or too old to hold hands.

Micah: I'll get older, but I'll always want to hold your hand.

With all due respect to my husband, there are very few opportunities for political scientists to be cool, so I thought I'd highlight him now while the opportunity is here!

UPDATE: Here's another article from the Boston Herald, and yet another from US News and World Report. Go Ked!!
