    Man. My kids are just getting out of the hand holding stage. I love that they’re getting more mature, but I really miss those hot slimy little hands.

        You don’t realize how slimy/sticky kids are until you have your own. Like, they’re clearly gross, but you don’t realize how gross.

          You can explain hygiene to a four year old until you’re blue in the face and they’ll still turn around and chase a chicken nugget under the booth at a restaurant.

    I seriously thought for way too long that you were doing prayer hands and you just had one really tiny left hand.

    Mine is about to leave home for university. I really miss the hand holding days.

      Oh for what it’s worth my eldest is long gone. Been through university, has a job, moved country and we still text and call constantly.

      If you’ve put money in the friend bank, and it sounds like you have, then you’re about to be repaid.

      Enjoy the next phase ❤️

        Thanks! We’re very excited about the next stage. Even though that’s on the other side of the country.

        Sounds like you have a really good relationship. I think I’m lucky enough to have the same.
