		<description>well, funny, my experience is really similar to briggie&#039;s... all my kids are super-affectionate.
my 18 yr old son often puts his arm around my shoulders as we walk along the street, my daughter (14) sits on my knee, gives me hugs and kisses, holds my hand as we walk along...
our little three lads are really snuggly as well.
(once or twice my S10 has snuck away from a public kiss in front of his *cool* mates... but i&#039;m ok with that, he&#039;s usually really huggy and hey, maybe i was pushing it a bit lol.)

so i&#039;m wishing you tons more years of hand-holding with Girlie Girl.
love, kate in New Zealand X

		<description>Ari still holds my hand, hugs me while walking hangs on my shoulders and sits on my lap and she&#039;s 15. I think it&#039;s because she is a girl, Noah is a independant 8 year old all boy! He doesn&#039;t need my hand anymore. Yet he is still affectionate. Kisses us good night and good morning.

		<description>Okay, I&#039;m giving away my age - I&#039;m 48 and I have 4 kids ages 29, 26, 20 and 14.  I still hold hands with my kids.  Now the boys don&#039;t actually let me hold their hands, they offer me their arm which is quite nice actually - after all, I taught them to offer a lady their arm from the time they were old enough to walk!  My girls and I stroll hand in hand or arm in arm - I think it has a lot to do with how open you are with your affection - the more you cuddle and hug and gives kisses when they are little, the more it spills over into their growing years.  Now, I&#039;m not saying there were seasons where it was cooler for them to be with their buddies than with mom or dad, but I have always taught my children that friends and lovers will come and go, but family will always be there and nothing can change that!  So, take heart, Girlie Girl will always seek out your hand as long as she knows your hand is there.
Take care, and God bless,
Briggie ^i^

		<description>My girls are the ones who don&#039;t really like to hold my hand as we walk in a store or around the neighborhood. However, they still give me plenty of kisses. I get 3 kisses from each girl every morning before they get out the car for school. 3 kisses, 1 each for the words in &#039;I Love You&#039;.

		<description>I miss those days with my daughter.  She&#039;s 14 now and thinks she hates me.  I&#039;m looking forward to the day when she realizes that Mom isn&#039;t all that bad...  *sniffle*

Is Shoyu separate from regular ol&#039; soy sauce?  My mom always calls Kikkoman&#039;s--or any other soy sauce, acutally-- Shoyu.  (I haven&#039;t read the questions about it so you&#039;ve probably already answered it!)

BTW, I&#039;m heading to your neck of the woods in a couple weeks!!!!!  *squee*
