creating a bubble?

I just dropped my big boy off with some very capable scout leaders for the weekend.
Their troop is participating in the Klondike Derby
(all I know about this is there's a race where the boys pull a sled, kind of like a dog sled,
against other scout troops).
This is only for 1 night, but it will be one very COLD night!

I do have to admit that I really like having all my children with
me under the same roof at bed time.
I like knowing where they are, that they are warm & safe.
I definitely have control issues & I am having to relinquish my control
as these little ones become big ones.

Here is where 'creating a bubble' comes in.
In my dreams I would create this 'safety zone' a bubble if you will-
where my loved ones would be safe & they wouldn't age any more.

This is such a sweet time of life for me, where my children
are more or less self-sufficient, can communicate to carry
on a conversation & make me smile more often than not.

Last night we were all snuggled in on the couches watching an
amazing documentary, "The Planet Earth".
As I glanced around to see these sweet kids happy & content,
my heart was warmed.
I want those moments to continue on.
Where I can snuggle them on my lap & give them a kiss
without embarassment.
A 'bubble' would be so nice!
