I hope I am able to remember to keep hugging as my kids grow up, they will never be too big for hugs.Jannethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06095482100015966340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119057351371996119.post-35360421798112610542010-04-14T21:20:47.063-07:002010-04-14T21:20:47.063-07:00You might remember when Sam had certain "rule...You might remember when Sam had certain "rules" of behavior for me when I'd go to any of his sporting events. I could sit quietly in the stands, but no cheering his name. I often broke the rules, but he never complained. Moms walk a fine line and you seem to be very good at it. As always; I'm so very proud of you, but I promise not to cheer too loud.nanajohannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06407616845571437868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119057351371996119.post-38087517293912579542010-04-14T21:12:41.134-07:002010-04-14T21:12:41.134-07:00Thanks for this...I also have a 4th grade kiddo an...Thanks for this...I also have a 4th grade kiddo and we're learning together :)kjhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05405679446820778835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119057351371996119.post-45744975766429974782010-04-14T20:01:40.388-07:002010-04-14T20:01:40.388-07:00My fourth grader is really getting to where she is...My fourth grader is really getting to where she is very concerned about what others are thinking about her. I wish it wasn't that way . . . I guess it is part of growing up. She gets embarrassed easy - I'm remember being the same way.<br /><br />Good reminder though - I need to hug her more. I like how you put it "a shield hug" - :)Judihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17486158306482712085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119057351371996119.post-13120486991662478222010-04-14T18:56:16.007-07:002010-04-14T18:56:16.007-07:00That's awesome!That's awesome!Jocelyn Christensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10342635172904848811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119057351371996119.post-14459390681582435262010-04-14T16:58:44.825-07:002010-04-14T16:58:44.825-07:00Sometimes I think being the "cool" mom i...Sometimes I think being the "cool" mom isn't all it's cracked up to be. <br /><br />I love this story, and I'm glad Kiddo loves getting the hugs as much as you love giving them!Chaneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16768705396710074992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9119057351371996119.post-78868951164600178082010-04-14T16:01:03.178-07:002010-04-14T16:01:03.178-07:00What a wonderful post.
