Boundaries

The Boy and I were watching TV the other day.
While he sat between my stretched-out legs on the couch he absently ran his hand over my ankles.
Bewildered, he turned his little head, bird-like, to look up at me.
"Mummy," he asked. "Why don't the prickles go all the way down to your feet?"
