I have been working late for the last 2 weeks, and i see an effect it has on Shauna. She become more sticky towards me, and do not allow me to leave her sight at all. At her age, it could be also separation anxiety that she is going thru, but my instincts tell me it is my work hours that made her alittle insecure.
This week i took 2 days off, and the rest of the days i made an effort to come back early and bring her to the park/playground to ride her bike and interact with the other children. It has such positive effect... i see her back to her normal self again, and she will enjoy herself so much on her bike, at the slide, or on the tunnel.. by the time she gets home and finish her bath.. she will happily finish all 220ml of her milk and then drift off to sleep all tired out.
The other day there were these 2 boys collecting twigs at the playground.. and when one of the boys saw Shauna, he walked over and offered her a twig! (not a flower but a twig, but who cares.. its the sweet gesture that counts ya?)
