The other day we were at the grocery store where my husband works. I was buying a toy for a birthday gift for one of my daughter's friends.

He was just getting off his shift.

We get to the center part of the store, and she sees her daddy from about 20 or 30 feet away. She screams "Daddy Daddy!!" so energetically and runs to see him...then gives him a huge hug.

Got big "aww"'s from every person around. It was really cute.

Just one example....but....my daughter is a HUGE Daddy's girl. Has been since birth. And I should just be happy that she has such a loving father - with all our marital issues, I will never deny that he is an amazing father to her.

So why am I so jealous. I see something like that and it just makes my heart ache...because she NEVER runs to me!! She never seems excited to see me.

I just feel so guilty. I'm trying really hard to mask my emotions and not let stuff show thru, but I'm sure it does, and I know that's probably why she doesn't like me as much.

Gah what the heck. She's only 2-1/2 years old. What do I expect.

Stupid stupid feelings.
