Daddy's Girl

I am a little heartbroken. Riley has officially become "Daddy's girl" and I have been moved to the second rung on her ladder. I used to be the one she wanted help from, snuggles and kisses, time reading books together...I was the main choice. Now, the phrase "I want Daddy to do it" is what I hear when I offer to do something with her or for her. I know that every girl has a special place in her heart for her Daddy but I guess I didn't realize that meant some of the affection she has for Mommy gets replaced so easily! I'm thankful that she has a wonderful Daddy to love her and play with her - Jason is an amazing father. But, if I'm honest, it makes me a little bit jealous! I know she still loves me and it warms my heart to see Riley and Jason together. For now, I'll keep offering my time and affection and I'll focus on the time I have left with Logan while I'm still number one to her!
