To me it is more of a case of balancing attention spent. Sometimes, one child needs attention more than another. I agree with the stage thinking, and at the same time, I think that in parenting children, there are a million little moments that we are offered in day to day to fall deeper in love with a child.<br /><br />While that falling might be mistaken for favourtism, I submit that perhaps it is just one child having a little moment in the sun. <br /><br />Good luck to the dad. What a tricky topic to try to post and share.caygraymommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17999243221977224432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23898302.post-44901403029651128082012-10-02T07:34:01.445+10:002012-10-02T07:34:01.445+10:00Sorry, that should have read skeptics...LOL...half...Sorry, that should have read skeptics...LOL...half asleep here ;)Sandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05160929538185651224noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23898302.post-21437098602701207602012-10-02T07:33:06.232+10:002012-10-02T07:33:06.232+10:00I can honestly say (and I know there are a lot of ...I can honestly say (and I know there are a lot of sceptics) that I don't have a favourite. My two girls are *very* different individuals and I love different things about each of them, and hate different things about each of them...Maddie has my temperament, so it's easier to identify with her as she's getting older. Cassie looks more like me, but has her dad's temperament and absolutely milks the baby status for all it's worth. Maddie is a gifted artist (gets it from me but I was never that good) and musician (from Michael)...Cassie is passionate about dance (again, my side of the family) and loves nature and animals...<br />You'll see as they grow older, there is SO much to love. Yes, there is also a lot that you wish you didn't have to put up with - but that's just teenagers ;)<br />(Sorry, I seem to hijack your comment sections too much, but I love your Blog - wish I'd blogged when mine were little) xoxoxSandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05160929538185651224noreply@blogger.com
