Totally normal hun, and i'm right there with you almost every day. It's so beautiful and yet so hard watching them grow up.

This will sound mad but when DD is ill she always regresses a bit, wants to sleep in my arms and be held all the time, and i love loving on her during those times. It is so nice when the little helpless infant is back for a day or so, and then inevitably there is another huge leap forwards when they've recovered.

It's good too, because when she is needing me to read a book or play or snuggle and i'm busy or tired and my reflex is to put her off, i think "No, you can't get these five minutes back" and i relax and enjoy her. It's a beautiful job isn't it.
