Unashamedly lovely thoughts about your children - share yours!

[JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff]

Feel free to be as sentimental as you like. It's dark and chilly and I've just done 14 hours at work and not seen my children today.

Let's just have a lovely thread for all those "ahhh" moments.

I'll start. Last night DS came into bed with me for a bit because he was coughing and restless and I gave him a cuddle. He is only 10 mos old but I thought, even if he has no conscious memory of this when he's older, somewhere in his brain there will always be some dim, distant memory of his mummy holding him when he was poorly. Years later, when I'm dead or far away, somewhere there will be the memory of having been cuddled and loved.

What are your lovely thoughts about your dc?

That's lovely. My lil girl today told me I am her best friend 😀😀. Not sure how long it will last for so will treasure the memory.

They're just great. So clever and sensitive.

My son has just been accepted into a high level sports club. I'm trying to ensure his sister doesn't feel left out. She's been so supportive even though it'll directly impact on her life.

My little boy whose almost six never goes out with my husband if I'm not going, like to visit my in-laws for instance, because he wants to stay and look after me and doesmt want me to be alone. I try insisting he goes but he says "I will stay here with you mummy if that's okay" and gives me a big smile.

Dog both your children sound great

My young adult DD told me I was wise.

My 19 yr old son poked his head around the door a few days ago when I was poorly and asked if there was any chores that needed doing before he went out. Then went and did them.

It did make me feel all squidgy inside hafta admit even though he's quite good at chores in general.

Oh these are wonderful

I’m a single parent - been on my own since I was pregnant. Ds is 6 and currently snuggled up beside me in bed. He’s so utterly thrilled to have my company - he tells me I am his “best girl ever” because I always say he is my best boy. God I love him! Going to go squeeze him a bit now!

Woman in corner shop told me a customer had said my dts were the nicest children they’d ever met!

My baby is still very young but her bottom is the cutest thing I have ever seen. When dp lifts her out of the bath I lose my shit at how cute her butt is. I want to frame a picture of it.

As an older mum with no dress sense and a complete nerd dd announced that I am a cool mum - and all her mates say so

Oh yes the ham hock thighs when they're babies

My two year old son cupped my face in both hands tonight and rested his forehead against mine he’s so lovely

When asked what my 9 year old DS was going to spend his birthday money on, he replied

“I’d like to take my family for a steak dinner”

swoons

DH was putting our 3yo DD to bed this evening. I was in a lot of pain (constipation 😣😣) and went through feeling pretty sorry for myself.

She smiled at me and patted the bed, saying "you can lie down here with me if you like mummy. There's room just here with me in my bed."
It was just so sweet of her, I melted! (And did lie down and cuddle her for a while 😊)

Awww 😀😀😀😀 loving this thread OP. Nursery workers tell me DD has the best manners and is lovely to everyone. She has always been so kind to her brother too. Always takes care of him and if someone else looking after them makes sure they understand what he wants!!

Kids are the best!!!

Something, may sound grim, but isn't hopefully. My father died unexpectedly ten years ago. The funeral, burial, on a awful bitter January day. I was trembling at the graveside. My 23yr old autistic son at my side simply put his arm through mine, without a word. Such tenderness you know, I couldn't love him more.

My little girl is 18 months old and just so beautiful. She has these huge shiny dark eyes and the softest hair, like little sticky-up bits of beige cotton.

I was suppose to put her to bed at nine but I let her stay up an extra half hour because she was having so much fun dancing to her little musical rabbit toy. I just sat down and watched her and laughed with her - I could honestly watch her dance all night.
I just love my little girl more than anything. ❤

I absolutely love this thread!!! Makes me feel all warm and gooey inside reading about all of your lovely children .

Me and my ds (5) are just so connected. I've never known a bond like it. We are so tactile with other and just love hugging and snuggling up together. We must say "I love you" to each other a million times day and I mean it with all my heart each time I tell him. He always says I'm his best friend and when I asked him what he wanted Santa to bring him for Xmas he said "just you mummy". He's the best!!!!

I am a first time mum to a little girl. She's only 3 months old and her personality is just starting to come through. Just now she's in her cot supposed to be asleep but she's laughing and making the cutest noises she's so cheeky and she just lights up my life. I can't imagine life without her. She's my best friend ❤️❤️❤️

Had a cry earlier in the week (a lot going on). DS who is 2 sat on my lap, gave me a kiss and wiped my tears away. I've never cried in front of him before.

These are all so lovely! Thank you for sharing.

Babies are the best. DD2 is just starting to talk and says ma-ma, ma-ma in this hilarious croaky voice at me 😍

My baby is still very young but her bottom is the cutest thing I have ever seen. When dp lifts her out of the bath I lose my shit at how cute her butt is. I want to frame a picture of it.

Oh my GOD babies’ bums and thighs. I just want to eat them up. HOW do they get so cute? So SQUIDGY.

My eldest dropped the piano 2 years ago and hasnt touched it again until this week . This evening she was accompanying her younger DS playing "Silent Night" on the clarinet. Beautiful!

I’m just so proud of mine. The older one is developing lovely manners. They are completely hilarious and so sweet together.

Love reading everyone else's. So lovely 😊❤️
