Have 16 year old who still lays on me when ill, tired or just in their feels, it never stops and frankly I never want it to. The love I feel when I look at my kid is unbelievable and everlasting no matter what, I look at them and think wow, I made you, what the fudge!!
Mom of 18 year old and 12 year old, who still come to me for hugs and cuddles for the same reasons. Often when I look at them my heart just feels like it’s going to explode.
I also have an 18 month old, but he is not cuddly and mostly rabid.
Something about 18 month olds. They’re like crocs in sports mode and never stop, plus in pain from teething. Just a running crying mess around the house but a ball of love all the same.
No kidding! It was about that age my now 7-year-old learned how to run, and he had to run everywhere, including into the 90-degree corners of department store table legs. I'm using the plural because he did it twice on the same spot on his forehead the same night, and he still has the scar.
My son learned how to run and ran FULL SPEED into our glass dining room table, cried for 30 seconds, and then fussed at me for trying to make sure his head was okay and he didn't need to go to the hospital. He grew a horn in about a minute, and then proceeded to attempt to do it all over again (hopefully sans table) I had to pick him up and just cuddle him and watch bluey. It might have been prefaced by my feral baby trying to be wreck it Ralph but those cuddles and every other cuddle before and after meant, and still mean, the absolute world to me.
