A long time ago Cara had actually been a huggy sort of child herself, with a father who'd encouraged that kind of thing (which once she'd let herself think about it was not helping matters one bit) so she had been able to guess where this was heading the second Clark had opened his mouth.

That didn't stop her getting the wind knocked out of her when the tiny child tackled her in a hug though. "She very strong," she said awkwardly, as she tried to figure out just how to react. "Fast too."
