I saw this post on Threads where a young woman asked if kids stop being so cute once they become grown ups. Like the baby/toddler kind of cute. And sometimes I think there’s something wrong with me because each comment underneath was a mom saying no, they never stop being that cute, mine are in their teens, mine are in their thirties, mine are in their late twenties and I absolutely still adore them.
I was like whaaaat?
Then finally as I kept scrolling, a comment based in reality where a mom said well they’re cute and I still adore them as adults, but in a different way. I was so relieved and said as much.
Yes of course we still love them as grown ups and now and then you see a peek of them still being the small children they were and it’s cute.
But I’m not jonesin’ to nibble on their toes like I did when they were babies or toddlers, like come on.
On my mind today is finishing my Christmas shopping. I still need to get gifts for mine and Clint’s moms. So that kind of sucks. But I knew we wouldn’t be seeing them before Christmas so I left their shopping for last, very last.
They are both very hard to buy for so wish me luck.
