When I got home from a hen do yesterday, J said "I knew you'd come back!" then a few mins later, "I thought you might not come back."
He "knows," but he doesn't FEEL it. #Attachment is complicated. I'm his 3rd Mum. I hope one day he'll feel it. He's reassured by visible gestures of love, so I arranged his cereal buffet (he likes it dry) into hearts this morning, on his fave chopping board.

J showed me his hands like this, and said "Look, Mummy! It's a heart! It's for you."
😍😍😍😍😍

Watching the Feelings song by @mooseclumps & when it got to the bit about feeling scared, J leapt into his sister's arms! 😍

Tree went up today and I let the children have complete artistic freedom. They mostly put the baubles up IN PAIRS. How utterly adorable is that?!?! They are such a sweet little pair. I hope they always want to do everything together. 🥰

A video that explains rather well the differences between a secure versus an insecure attachment style. And the importance of being securely attached.
