[QUOTE="Tiapet, post: 158028, member: 455"] Oh I get the mother to and not in a sarcastic way but in a general conversation some times but usually it is mom. Mommy is really special. I think more special to me because this is from a child, who when younger, wasn't espcially cuddly. It's weird. Let me explain. When she was infant she used to need to be rocked across my knees on her belly, or when she went to bed in her crib I'd have to sit for HOURS holding her hand. The moment I let go she would start back up (not crying but not being settled). She didn't really sleep as a baby or toddler. It took until 6 years old before she actually slept through the night and that was with the aid of medication (and diagnosis of BiPolar (BP)). She had to either sleep with us or at the very least in our room (we moved her bed in). We didn't get kisses and couldn't get hugs. Now come many years later and since I got divorced she turned this all around and has become a very loving child. Yes, we believe there is a reason now behind it for sure. My point I guess is that I am really cherishing more and more the changes and appreciating them because for so many years I didn't have this. The mommy bit just stood out because it was sweet and made me feel a bit more wanted and needed even still as she has aged and is moving forward into adulthood with her own agenda and will (and boy does she ever have one of them!).
