Thank you for kicking in the first place and thank you for kicking when I was flat up against someone who loves me. Thank you for letting someone else remember this moment, treasure it with a hand against my body. “That was a kick, Shep,” I whisper to him, emotion clogging my throat. “I thought so,” he whispers back, a huge grin on his face. “That was the coolest thing I’ve ever experienced.”
