Kallsen is a particular child. He wants to sit next to you, lay in the bed next to you, sit on the same side of the table as you...and rest his hand on your arm or leg. But by no means shall you touch him. He has become this way or the past couple of months.
When he is feeling bad or hurt then its okay to let mommy or daddy hug or hold him. But it doesn't last long. I miss being able to hold on to him. I guess I better get as much snuggle time with Parker before he gets to be the same as his older brother.

I remember that when the kids were little. I am fortunate enough to have kids who actually grew out of that and now these boys that are bigger than me like to lay with their heads in my lap and get upset if I go to bed without giving them a hug! (even when their friends are over!) Hopefully Kallsen will grow out of that too.
I noticed that when we were visiting in october...kallsen liked me sitting by him on the couch in the mornings and sometimes he would even cuddle up a little under the blanket as we watched dora..but it was clear who was in charge of the snuggles..he was very affectionate when he came home from school...he came up and gave me hugs..it was really nice..I miss you guys...
That's very sweet. Time does go by so quickly. We gotta get all the baby lovin' when we can!
Boy, I don't like to think about these things.
As surprised as I still am sometimes at how I am unable to pick up my son without giving him a hug and kiss - I know that I will be as surprised (and heartbroken) when he rejects it (... but I suspect I will do it just the same). I guess it is an inevitable truth.
And it is my hope, as kara roo said, "Hopefully Kallsen will grow out of that too."
