My mother used to say the same thing to me, but I couldn’t WAIT for them to grow out of babyhood and at least into middle-childhood so they could do more for themselves. Now as a grandmother, I wish I had cherished the babyhood, but that’s what grandchildren are for.
My mom was not the hugging type. I couldn’t remember a hug during childhood. But, once, when I was 29, she gave me a hug upon returning home after 6 months away. I was stunned. Good, but stunned. She never hugged me again. But, mom showed her love in other ways, but outward expression was not her way.

Until they get big enough to reject your hugs, that is.

Hugging is a fine way of showing care for someone. Not doing it at all shows someone who was raised in a cold and distant family member.

Would Elly worry about Michael/Lizzie if one or both of them got overweight?
