She wants me to walk her to class every day, but when I go to kiss and hug her goodbye, she won't kiss me back, and barely will hug me. Makes me a little cuckoo because I love her hugs and kisses. <br /><br />Happy SITS Saturday Sharefest!Dame Nuisancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02627547725026239348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2576412671838090092.post-3549033701086413622009-10-03T07:39:30.076-05:002009-10-03T07:39:30.076-05:00What a great post, Holly.

I love this post. My daughter is but 13 months old and already I cry sometimes (don't tell anyone - I might have to kick you or something)at how fast its going. It was a ginormous struggle to get pregnant and she is just the most awesomest thing ever. Tomorrow she's going to be 30 and blogging about her aging mother and changing diapers! Joe sounds like a phenomenal person and that's because he has such an awesome loving caring mother!Duckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06195603673076986036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2576412671838090092.post-81741909132600871272009-10-02T18:31:50.447-05:002009-10-02T18:31:50.447-05:00I think that your parental, and maternal instincts...I think that your parental, and maternal instincts are natural. And although my perspective as a dad might be somewhat different, I am still a parent. While I was protective of my children as they grew ( they're all adults now ), their mother was even more so. It was much easier for me to let go than for mom. AS they got older, I was always more willing to let the leash out farther than she, and I can still remember our conversations about it. <br /><br />If you think back to your own childhood, as we got older, we wanted more freedom, and wanted more space between us and them. <br /><br />I think it's okay to loosen the ties a bit as they get older, and as long as you do it with common sense and their safety in mind, you'll be okay. Sure, you'll cringe inside, but that's what letting go is about. <br /><br />Joe sounds like a great kid, and you a proud mom.Mattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13979949404266325705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2576412671838090092.post-14771234246735424432009-10-02T17:48:00.525-05:002009-10-02T17:48:00.525-05:00I know it's tough; my 4th grader begged me to ...I know it's tough; my 4th grader begged me to let her walk herself to class every day this year and I obliged. But, funny thing is, she still wants me to wait right outside her class at the end of the day, the part I actually don't like doing.

My son had a hard start in life so I tended to be "overprotective" too. But, like you, realization hit and I had to learn to accept him and give him the chance to grow in confidence and maturity. Is it easy? No. But is it the right thing to do? Yes.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01169693305157071792noreply@blogger.com
