Oh the woe's

I knew that raising a child would be emotional. However over the last week or so when I go to get Judson out of bed in the morning he says, "go away, go away, go away". It breaks my heart. Granted Darren does usually get him up and going in the morning so it's just breaking his routine, right? (That's what I keep telling myself to make it hurt less. Judson does prefer Darren 99% of the time Darren is around.) But still, I gave him life. Doesn't he realize that? He shouldn't be so mean! And I shouldn't be so sensitive. :)

Kids always go through liking one parent more than another. He doesn't mean it to hurt you it is just what he likes right now. But it is hard not to feel hurt. Don't worry I'm sure he'll come back one day and only want you. Then you'll wish he wants Darren again!

He's just being funny and teasing!

I know how you feel, girl! Shawn is totally Jackson's favorite. I think it's sweet most of the time, but sometimes I just want him to like me a little bit more! And give me more kisses! And snuggle with me more! And actually say "Mama" when he sees a picture of me and Shawn, instead of just saying "Daddy" - with a big ol' smile on his face, I might add! I always tell him all the wonderful things I do for him each day but it's like he doesn't even hear me. I'm sure it will only get worse. Until one day when he realizes how cool I really am!!! :)

Look at the bright side, he will want Darren to change his poopy diapers more often. You may as well live it up until he is potty trained.

Having children of all ages now has me looking back on those HARD younger years and I am thankful that I can just say I am glad that I am through them. Each age brings new trials...stick with it. Make your own ritual that ONLY you and Judson do together that he gets really excited about. I still remember when I came back from my 10 day cruise back to Zack who was only 7 months old and he did not want anything to do with me for a few days. I was so sad, but I got over it and now he looks for me all the time.
