THE HUGGING BANQUITO



By: Sylvia Davila MM
Bogotá

Hugging a child is a wonder. It used to be my favorite sport when racing my children. But they grew up. My dignify 5.3 feet that for some years allowed me to hold each one in each arm, decreased in a direct proportion to their birthdays. When they were babies I would hold them in my arms. At three years old, I would bend to lift them. At seven, I would just lean a bit. At eleven, we would look straight into each other eyes before hugging. At fifteen…I had to turn my neck slightly upwards. At seventeen, I found myself lost in their bellies when I held them in my arms.

In fact, the decision I made was not led by a hurt ego reduced in centimeters, or by the thread to my authority applied from the floor upwards. I simply wanted the hug to be truly tight. So I got myself to find a stool to compensate the difference. I found it, a small, white, simple wooden stool. My daughter painted it and wrote on its front legs the name I gave it: The hugging Banquito (stool). It has been with us for more than a decade and its worn out surface shows hugs given-received. My Hugging Banquito will always carry the love I gave to and received from my kids. Great treasure. Silvia Davila Morales ©
