It is nice to be wanted and needed. However, by a toddler they can become quite demanding. Luke screamed at Daddy when he tried to take him out of the car, “NO, Mommy do it”. He threw a fit when Jayden tried putting his shoes on for him because mommy had to do it. Lately he has become a mommy’s boy. I should crave ever minute of Luke at this age as I know there will be a time when I am not needed. I don't always feel this way, especially at bedtime when he wants me to sit in his room until he falls asleep or comes into our room in the middle of the night wanting in our bed. Yet, he is growing and I find it harder to hold him on my shoulder and rock him in the chair as he fills my lap. He says I want you mommy and I need you. So precious, I need to just soak it up.
