Must be annoying for daddy and nanny, but warms my heart! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912218 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:52:00 +0000 mrs. wagon 912218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wagon Jr. always cries "I want mommy" during his crying time-outs.. even if I'm the one who put him there! Heartbreaking, but it's nice to know that I'm the one he wants when he's really really sad.</p> <p>LMW is almost never whiny, until she sees me... then she is nonstop whiny! Our nanny always marvels at how she turns into a totally different baby when I come home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912213 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:49:46 +0000 2PeasinaPod 912213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awesome thread!</p> <p>At night, no matter which one is holding him right before bedtime, he will reach for the other one to have a little group hug and lean his head forward for us to kiss it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912208 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:46:31 +0000 Rubies 912208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I'm putting my almost-2-year old to bed, she snuggles her face into my neck/shoulder and just lets me hold her (she isn't very affectionate otherwise!)...I love it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912198 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:41:57 +0000 mrsjazz 912198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I pick her up and she puts her head on my shoulder and squeezes me in a hug. </p> <p>Sometimes she'll be playing with her toys and come over, climb onto my lap and lay against my chest and then go back to playing. </p> <p>When she wakes up in the middle of the night and crawls into our bed and only gets comfortable again when she's cuddled up next to me.</p> <p>Even though she has a Mommy preference, whenever her Dad leaves the room, she says "Daddy" and looks at the door waiting for him to come back. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912156 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:21:29 +0000 loveisstrange 912156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All I need to see is the look on her face when I first go to get her out of her crib in the morning. Pure joy and love. :heart: I am always greeted with a gigantic grin and lots of excited bouncing.</p> <p>Or the way she walks over and holds her arms up to me when she's upset or hurt. It totally makes me go mushy knowing that Im the one she picks to make her feel safe and okay. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912122 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:05:50 +0000 Andrea 912122@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That is so so so cute!! </p> <p>My 3 year old says "I love you" every day so I know. And she comes over and randomly kisses me.</p> <p>My 6 month old gives me huge smiles and has a mommy preference so that is how I know. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912120 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 09:04:46 +0000 delight 912120@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: so sweet! Can't wait to read the responses to this thread! I get a couple kicks to my cervix once in awhile so I know my in utero babe loves me. Does that count? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-know-your-kids-love-you#post-912104 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 08:59:58 +0000 mrbee 912104@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie has adopted one of my tee shirts as his "lovey" and after I put him to bed and leave the room at night, he often puts my shirt on over his pajamas. My shirt is huge on him, but it seems to help him sleep... the first time I saw him do it, I got a little something in my eye!</p> <p>When Olive wakes up in the morning, sometimes she will ask me to pick her up and then she will snuggle me so, so tight! When I try to put her down to make breakfast, she will say "no! no!" and hug me even tighter.</p> <p>How do you know your kids love you? </p>
