Guest guest Posted December 16, 2003 Report Share Posted December 16, 2003 My son is the sweetest little boy! He tells me, out of the blue - couple dozen times per day, that he loves me and likes me. He loves to play with my hair - has since he was born. He loves to snuggle and give kisses and " huggies. " He's VERY loving! He is this way with his dad and me, but mostly me because he is a mommy's boy. His daddy is very loving with the kids and I know this has taught that boys are allowed to be very loving and sweet. I worry about him after my surgery, because he always wants " mommy " to read him stories and sing songs before bed. He can't fall asleep unless I'm laying next to him, with my hair in his hand. I am hoping my husband will help transition him to letting " daddy " read and sing but I think will be very sad when mommy can't read and sing because of her " owies. " I think he will also be very upset with the person who " hurt mommy. " is very protective of me because he loves me so much. ~ > > > , if you wanna cry, cry. No harm in that.
