What keeps you going

Tiger was laying on the couch with her arms up looking like death warmed over. She'd been home sick all day.

Me: What's up?
Tiger: I need a hug.
Me: Didn't you just get one from Daddy?
Tiger: But I need a Mama hug!

She can be frustrating and a pain in my youknowwhat, but you can't help forgetting all about that in a moment like this.
