I know that we all love our children, but have any of you had those moments where you look at your child and fall in love with them all over again. I have had it happen so many times with my kids, and I had it again tonight. My oldest and I are watching t.v., and she wanted a snack, I asked what kind of snack she wanted. She said cereal. It was the way she said it with the little kid prounocation. I told her I loved her and that I always love her. She said she knew but that I didn't love her when I was mad at her. I told her that I always love her, no matter what. I don't know why it hit me, but it did, All over the way she said "Cereal" ↓

My Youngest son, Collin is almost 3 months. I have 2 bio children 9 and 10. Collin is our little adoption angel. I had heard other people that adopted say that it took them some time to form the love and bond. For me, the minute the Dr. placed him in my arms, I was in love. Just as much as my bio children. Even today, when I went to get him in his crib this AM, i had to stop for a second. The tears welled up in my eyes, I got the chills and the overwhelming love sensation. I fall in love with my son over and over every second of the day.
Now, the older kids...thats a different story! LOL..J/K...
My son, Austin plays football. Last week at his game he made 3 touch downs as the Q.B. I was in love! My daughter has been strugling with math this year, She just brought home her progress report today....Yup it was love...She went from a 70 to 85!!!! Falling in love all over again!
Love is great!

| My oldest daughter is 17, what really gets to me is when it's been a long day and I see her and her eyes light up and she says "MOMMY!" just like an excited little girl. ↑ |

| I have this inner string touched every time I look at my son. It is very sharp, how I feel about him. I keep hugging and kisssing them both all the time. My daughter - I am just amazed how smart and alive she is, I'm in awe of her natural ability of attracting people and lighting up all around her. ↑ |

| Name: momof3 | Date: Nov 16th, 2006 1:47 PM |
| What do you mean? You don't have those surges of love for her? ↑ |
| Name: mspeachpit | Date: Nov 16th, 2006 1:49 PM |
| no. i dont know why. i guess maybe im afraid to get too attached to her because i have constant threats of her being taken. ↑ |
| Name: momof3 | Date: Nov 16th, 2006 1:50 PM |
| Relax and enjoy her!!! Just sit and watch her play today. Take pride in the fact that she is yours. ↑ |

emma and peach this is normal too. sometimes it takes time to except a child personality. maybe its conflicting of yours or maybe they remind you of something from the past.
My son Brandon acts just like my x's family. he looks like my x and has this self centered attitude. I for years had a hard time feeling close to him. I love him very much. But its just differant matter fact I cant even think Of the words or my feelings. But it isnt the same. maybe because I was 17 when i had him. I was 30 when I had my 2nd son and 32 with my daughter. so It was a planned deal. ↑ |

| i still think its funny, though, that there's someone on here with the same name as my daughter (i know thats off-topic, but just had to put that in). ↑ |

I agree I think that it takes time to develop that extra love. A newborn kinda disruptes your life in a way that you would never except. No matter how your prepare yourself. Give it time and when they start to show WHO they are it will happen. Don't feel like a bad mom because of it.
Layne, I have a similar thing. I have always thought of my stepson as my own and the older he gets the more he acts like his mother. He gets very disrespectful and thinks that it is all about him, and it is frustrating. ↑ |

| my daughter's name is Emma! ↑ |

| Im telling you I admire you step parents. this takes a giving person. I have my plate full with my own. Those teen years are coming fast and I value the sweet years because they are short lived. I can hardly believe my 2nd son will go to junior high next year. It has gone sooo fast. ↑ |
| Name: Layne | Date: Nov 16th, 2006 2:36 PM |
| I love Emma such a old name. I tend to like the older ones. Mine are Michael and kathryn. Mike and kate for short. and Brandon is my oldest not such a old name. But then again I was 17 when I had him. ↑ |

| One of my friends got angry because her ex potty trained her youngest. She said that they grow up to fast and that she didn't want him potty trained yet. I told her that they all grow up. She said that she wanted another baby now. She is a single parent, with 4 kids. I told her no more babies right now, and to go get a puppy. ↑ |
| Name: mspeachpit | Date: Nov 16th, 2006 2:38 PM |
| my mom was putting my daughter down verbally this morning and saying she probably wont potty train until she's four. all because she's not walking yet. ↑ |

Nice to meey you June!!!
Peaches, All kids walk at different ages. My oldest 2, walked at 10 months, my little one was about 13 months. Is Emma crawling yet or pull herself into a stand? Will her condition effect these milestones? ↑ |
