If you promise not to tell, I will let you in on a little secret of mine. Every night when I kneel next to Lyman's bed to listen to his prayers, I strategically place my head next to where his hands are. Why do I do this? Because of a secret indulgence. I love to have my hair played with. My sisters and I would play with each other's hair and it always feels so nice and calming to me. If I bow my head near his hands to listen to his prayers - he will unconsciously play with my hair while he prays. I pretend not to notice and for the few brief moments of his prayer I get to to experience to lovely things at once - his sweet words to God and the tingling of little fingers running through my hair.
