I think you will need to be
proactive, rather than wait for questions and offer reassurance in a
reactive manner. Nothing bad in offering reassurance in a reactive manner, no, still an excellent way to proceed and to be available for your child(ten), but I think the proactive approach wins, at the end of the day.
Also, the adjective "normal" is sort of tepid. Neutral. Lukewarm. You probably would want to use adjectives with more positive connotations. More unequivocally uplifting and life affirming, so to speak.
