It isn't actually wrong though farview if you live alone and this is your one family "bubble".

It does all seem rather random though I have to admit!

It would have to be a heartless person who turned away from their GC. sad I'd have to hug mine if I saw them. My D still kisses me on the cheek, always has done and I know it's not going to stop.

I can't see the GGC though as they're all at school sad I'm willing myself to keep going for their sakes until I can see them again. Now and again I have a downer so have to shake myself.

Quite understandable my GS is getting a hug if he wants one of not when I can eventually get to see him.

How lovely for you. I miss my grandsons so badly ?

Ah @farview good for you, guilty here too but NOT ashamed. I've hugged DGD who is 2, played boing with her [i.e. let her jump on our bed] and also played snuggly-wuggly [wrapped her up in a faux fur throw] and tickly-wickly! To qualify we have been isolating and so has DD who is a single mum so we are now a bubble -but we were doing this before the bubbles were introduced.

Think I have said before on here that at 75 something is going to make me 'pop my clogs' before long. I would rather go out slightly more sane after cuddling my GC last week than the last months climbing the walls from being alone & not able to see & hug them. Felt so much better after so fingers crossed we go on without the virus getting us. That goes for everyone on GN too. Stay safe but sane through GC cuddles.

nothing wrong with your reaction,extra normal in these times,shows how much they mean to us and how much we have missed them.

My DD is so anxious about hands because of the hand washing message so I’m not allowed to hold hands with my DGC - but I am allowed hugs and cuddles ?
I don’t understand but I’m more than happy to go along with it ?

My DGD hugs me most days that she sees me. I'm not going to turn her away

Great. We have our little one twice a week till the end of this week when he returns to nursery. Little ones don’t understand social distancing and if they haven’t been anywhere nor their parents the risk from them is low. It will be a different story once he is back at nursery and we will miss our walks in the park, hugs and kisses. Hopefully, the risks will ease gradually.

My 2nd grandson had his birthday last Friday. I took his card and gift and he gave me a huge hug. I didn't want to let him go.?
There and then we decided that we had formed a family bubble.

That's ❤️

DD3 came over with her 3 yesterday. The youngest is 20 months so we have not seen him, or he us, for almost 4 months and we were concerned that he would not remember us.

He came over and asked to sit on, first, my knee and, then, on dh's. Not an opportunity I'm going to turn down.

I can imagine how you felt and now you can remember that moment again, and again and again. smile

I went in my sons garden this morning to see one of my younger grandsons...he turned 4today..and although i have seen him a couple of times during lockdown..its been at a distance...but today as i sat down in the garden he came running over and flung his arms around me...and i just held him so tight,eyes filled up..i felt so emotional..it was just so wonderful to hold him...tears streaming again as i write this...so i know i shouldn't have...but it just happened !
