Insecurities
I have been trying to figure out lately why Madalyn asks for her mom so much. Part of me feels like a failure because I am under the impression that Madalyn does not want to be with me. I know that isn't true but unfortunately I have an overly active imagination at times. Madalyn is almost 4 years old and I just thought she would understand the situation a bit better. She used to be excited to be with me, and I think she still is but she talks about going back to her mom's often. I wonder if it has to do with the fact that her mom lives with another guy. Even though it isn't the same guy she was living with 3 months ago. Maybe Madalyn feels like it is more of a family situation with a man and a woman living together. Maybe this is her desire. Or maybe I just need to let this one go.
