I'm a shy person and, quite frankly, I hate it. It's a word that's haunted me for the rest of life. 'Little Rin is shy,' is something I heard a lot of as I hid in my mum's skirt. One of the first words I remember being used to describe as is shy. What they enjoy, how they do tackle things, what lights up their eyes. Seeing them blossom into people, watching how they find their niche in the world. I've now realised is it's the secret to enjoying parenthood – discovering their little personalities as they discover them for themselves.
She can also dance like it's no-one's business. She fearless and wants to dive into life head first, but she also has the patience of a saint.
She worries about people and is very perceptive. Lil-lil is creative, imaginative and thoughtful, she's impatient with life but can sit back and watch the world with enthusiasm. Sure certain things are due to their different ages and developmental stages, but there are some core parts of their personalities that are unique to them alone. I'm constantly amazed and surprised by them. Such as, the way they react to certain things or situations. My girls are incredibly close and have many similarities, but there are parts of their personalities that are completely different. Now, that I see my two girls together, I realise what she meant.
They all four were so different and it was something they were born with, nothing to do with how she raised them.Īt the time I think I probably just rolled my eyes and thought 'Of course, we're all different people'. I remember my mother-in-law saying to me once, the one thing that surprised her most about motherhood was the individual personalities of all her kids.
