Omak, well put - in addition, they are experiencing and learning something new everyday! Remember what it felt like walking into a new classroom the first day of school? or Entering a room full of strangers at a new job or other social gathering? It is scary and unsettling. As these precious little ones explore and learn about this world they definitely need the comfort and security loving arms provide. Just think, everyday they will hear a new sound, experience a new touch or sensation, see a new sight. Even as they start creeping and then walking, becoming more independent, they have periods of clingyness when ever they are in the process of learning a new task.
Terri - your little ones seem to have hit the jackpot with loving arms abounding to surround them!
