To wish my two teenagers were toddlers again?

[CrabbyJo]

I have a nearly 15yr old DS and nearly 13 yr old DD. Both are lovely of course and I'm very proud of them and the young adults they're turning into. But recently I've been really down, bordering on depressed based on the fact they're growing up. I keep going through photos and watching home videos from when they were little and just feel utter sadness that all that period is over. Of course I knew they'd grow up and they still bring me lots of happiness but I just can't help feeling so so sad that the having small children phase of my life is over.
Does anyone or has anyone felt like this?

Oh I know what you mean, I have 2 DS's 20 and 23 and lately I have become very nostalgic for the toddler years when they just wanted mum unconditionally and even though they still give mum a big hug and we get on really well, it's not the same as being so 'needed' and loved, I miss the days of Mummy! my mummy!
