Non-verbal clues

Today Margie was more alert than for months! When several yards away, she looked my way, so I gave “our”wave and she grinned. As I reached her, said “our” greeting and for first time in months wanted a kiss on the lips—just child peck. As we sat beside each other, she almost glowed, smiled, eyes dancing some. Kept looking at me. So glad my social work training made me sensitive to minimal non-verbal clues. Refreshing time with her!
