Well, maybe we can get two of them… How could I say no to such a sweet angel? Whats that? A roller coaster? You’re so brave! I’d be more than happy to go with you love, and of course I’ll hold your hand if you get scared. Wait! Let’s get some sunblock on you before we go any further, we wouldn’t want you to get sunburned, now would we? I promise it’ll only take a second, we’ll get to have a whole day of fun after!
♡ Hide and Seek ♡
Five… four… three… two… one.. come out come out wherever you are! Hmmm… where could my sweet little bug have hidden? Behind the curtain? Under the bed? Oh, I know! You must be in the closet! Oh, nope, not in the closet either… well, you couldn’t possibly under those pillows on the bed… that couldn’t possibly be my little ones foot poking out from under there… well, I guess I better go check the kitchen now! Here I go, out the door and… Surprise! I’ve got you little one, you’re such a good hider, I’m so proud of you! Of course we can play again love, and of course you can play the seeker this time!
♡ S.R.O.T.M.S.U ♡
“And with that…” I gently tapped each of your shoulders with the wooden sword, “I proclaim you supreme ruler of the magic stuffie universe!”
You quickly jumped up to your feet, sending your paper crown fluttering to the ground, stumbling over your blanket cape as you scrambled both to catch your crown, and present yourself in a manner appropriate for a new ruler.
“My first rule as the Supreme Ruler of the Magic Stuffie Universe is that I get to stay up all night, no matter what you say Sissy!”
I raised an eyebrow, but nodded, after all, how could I say no to the Supreme Ruler themselves? “Of course your majesty,” I presented a low bow with a smile, “anything else that you desire as Supreme Ruler?”
You twisted your mouth into a tight pout, your eyebrows furrowed in concentration, “I want to be able to have as many stuffies as I want! And blankets too! Oh, and chocolate chips whenever I want them! And all the cuddles in the world!”
Even with all of your requests, it didn’t take long before you were curled up beside me on the couch, your cape tossed aside, and your paper crown folded neatly on the end table beside me. As I ran my fingers through your hair, your breathing began to even out, and I could tell within minutes you would be sound asleep.
“What do you think little bug? Is it time for the Supreme Ruler to go to bed?”
You shook your head, letting out a big yawn before responding. “Mm not tired yet Sissy, I gotta stay up all night, member?”
I chuckled, “Nope, just because you said you can doesn’t mean you have to, even leaders need to get their sleep. How about I carry you to bed and tuck you in? How does that sound little bug?”
You let out a hum of approval, and I scooped you up from the couch as gently as I could, quickly, yet carefully, transferring you from the living room to your nice cozy bed.
You were sound asleep, and with a gentle kiss to your forehead I turned off the lights and carefully walked towards the door, shutting it behind me. On the ground outside your room lay your paper crown, you must’ve clutched it in your hand and dropped it on the way from the living room.
I bent and picked it up, heading to the kitchen to find the tape to attach it to your door, after all, everyone should know which room belongs to royalty.
♤ Friendly Reminders ♤
Your regression is yours and yours alone, no matter how it looks, or how often you regress, your regression is valid and perfect.
♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤
Setting boundaries as a caregiver is completely normal, and even healthy for everyone, your number one priority should be your own self, and you should never be ashamed of caring for yourself first.
♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤
Its okay if your regression isn’t “aesthetic” and its okay if you enjoy things that don’t fit the standard mold of regression while regressed, regression is meant to be your safe place, allow yourself to enjoy what you want without placing outside expectations on yourself.
♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤♤
You are not “too old” or “too big” or “too anything” for regression. Regression doesn’t have any boundaries for who can and can’t use it as a coping mechanism, and no matter who you are or what you look like, you are a perfectly valid regressor.
♡ Fairy homes ♡
The leaves were finally bursting out if their buds, and the sweet smell of flowering trees and plants filled the air, bringing with it thoughts of honey and outside naps and long days spent adventuring in the woods.
You and I had set out from our front porch about an hour ago, after packing all of the essentials of course, a blanket, a sippy for you and a water bottle for me, and naturally, a picnic lunch containing both of our favorite sandwiches and snacks.
You paused to peep into a hole in the side of a tree, “do you think that a fairy lives in there Sissy?”
“Well, maybe, but who knows? How about you and I stop for a little bit and make some fairy houses? Then we can go back and check to see if any moved in later on!”
You let out an excited squeak, “I’m gonna make the best house ever Sissy, there’s gonna be a fairy who moves in there for sure!”
The next few moments were spent carefully gathering materials for your fairy home, rocks for walls, birch bark for the roof, and the softest available moss for the floor and for patching together any gaps in the wall.
In the end, a large oak leaf formed the door, and you beamed with pride as you showed off your finished project. “I betcha thats never gonna fall down, you announced, giving the walls a gentle push, "I’m a professional fairy house maker!”
I knelt down to admire your work closer, “you did a wonderful job sweetheart, I bet a very happy fairy is going to move into that house one of these days!”
As we continued on our walk, the woods, so full of light and life seemed a little bit more full of magic and wonder. I watched as you ran ahead of me, prancing down the path, and for a second, I wondered if maybe, just maybe, the real magic in our woods came from the presence of such a sweet little angel like you.
♡ Littles Long Day ♡
Oh, I’ll get that for you love! Of course I don’t mind helping you at all love, there’s nothing I would rather do than take care of my sweet little angel, yep, really. Every day, I promise. Now, here you go, why don’t you make sure that lid is on your sippy cup nice and tight okay? Well aren’t you just the best little helper, I’ll tell you what, how about I get you all snuggled in on the couch, and I’ll put on your favorite movie? I won’t mind at all if you fall asleep love, you’ve had a long day! Okay, now, you just stay right there and I’ll make up a snack for my special little bug real quick, don’t start the movie without me though!
♡ Secret Mission 101 ♡
I had only just woken up and gone into the kitchen to pour a cup of coffee when I saw you creep around the corner, quickly scooting back a step when you saw me standing at the counter.
I quickly turned away from you, letting out an inquisitive sigh. “I wonder where my little one could be?” I asked, directing the question to no one in particular. “Certainly not sneaking into the kitchen, oh no, I know for a fact that my baby is still tucked into bed, snug as a bug in a rug!”
I heard you giggle behind me, and sniffling a laugh myself, I began sorting through the mail stacked neatly by the coffee pot. “Gosh,” I said, once again, definitely not to the sneaky little one who was by no means behind me, “it sure would be a shame if someone were to try and scare me right now, or, oh no, it might be even worse if someone were to sneak in here and find the secret stash of cookies I put in the cabinet above the dishwasher yesterday!”
You gave an excited gasp, and I heard the telltale squeaks of someone running across the kitchen floor to the dishwasher, quickly followed by muffled shushing as the cabinet squeaked open and you grabbed a handful of cookies from the jar, followed by silence.
I turned from the counter, ready to greet my sneaky baby, only to be greeted by an empty kitchen in front of me. “Hmmm…” I took a few steps forward, glancing around curiously, “I could have sworn I heard someone’s little feet in here just a second ago… it must have been a ghost, not my little angel!”
With that, the pantry door swung open, and out you jumped, grabbing me in a hug as you shouted an enthusiastic “Boo!”
With a laugh I returned your embrace, ruffling your hair and holding you close, “Ah, I see, so it was just you after all love bug, you got me good, you were so sneaky I never even knew you were here!”
You held your hand up with a smug grin, proudly displaying the cookies you had snatched from the secret stash above the dishwasher. “I was so sneaky I got cookies for breakfast without even having to ask you Sissy!”
With a shake of my head I took one of the extended cookies and dipped it into my coffee, “Well, I suppose everyone can use a treat for breakfast every now and then, isn’t that right love bug?”
You nodded solemnly, “Does that mean I can have coffee too?”
I paused, shaking my head slowly. “I don’t think a little one with as much energy as you have needs coffee for breakfast, how about we get you some chocolate milk instead, okay?”
♡ Froggy Friend ♡
Whatcha got there sweetheart? A frog? Oh, its a prince? A prince in disguise? Well silly me for not noticing that right away, but now that I’m looking closer, you’re definitely right love, this frog is definitely a prince. Now love bug I’m not quite sure you want to go and kiss a frog, even frogs who are princes can be germy! How about we take him back over where you found him and let him go okay? Oh, you’re right love I’m sure he’s got a frog princess somewhere in that pond! And you, of course you’re my sweet little royal! The royalist little baby that the world has ever seen, frog friend or not!
♡ Bunny Ears ♡
“Sissy?”
I looked up from my book to see you standing before me, an untied pair of sneakers stuck haphazardly on your feet. “Whats up little love? Do you need some help tying your shoes?”
You nodded, “I get all stuck up on the bunny ear part, it always falls apart and I was trying so hard Sissy, I really was but I just, I can’t do it and…”
“Hey, don’t fret little one,” I led you to sit down on the sofa, kneeling down so I could prop your feet up on my lap. “I’ll show you how to do it again, okay bubs? And I’ll show you as many more times as you need me to!”
You nodded, “can I try to tie the other one while you tie that one please?”
“Of course little one, now, do you remember the first step?”
You crinkled your nose for a second, the focus and determination clear on your face. “First we gotta cross them up, like this!”
“Thats perfect! Do you know what you do after that?”
You glanced down at the laces in your hands, and back at me, “No… thats where I always get all stuck up.”
“Well, here’s a little poem to help you out, okay little bug? Listen carefully okay, and watch what I’m doing, okay?
Bunny ears bunny ears, playing by a tree,
Criss crossed the tree, trying to catch me!
Bunny ears bunny ears, jumped into a hole,
Popped out the other side beautiful and bold!”
As I finished the rhyme, I looked down to see two perfectly tied shoes upon your feet, and up at your face to see a smile beaming with pride.
“I did it! I really did it all the way Sissy! Can you believe it?”
I smiled at you, my heart swelling with joy at the pride on your sweet little face, “Of course I can believe it love, you’re my smart little baby after all! Now, how about we get you a cookie, as a treat for doing so well with your shoes!”
♡ The Itsy-Bitsy Spider ♡
“Sissy! Sissy come quick, I need you!”
Upon hearing your cries I immediately leapt to my feet, running though the house and into the back bedroom in the upstairs hall, where I found you, and what appeared to be a spider, staring each other down with unwavering eyes.
The spider was small, hardly the size of pencil eraser, but nonetheless it had you cornered, pinned against the bathroom wall as though it was some sort of deadly beast.
I let out a sigh and gently scooped the spider up in my hand, walked over to the window, and placed it gently outside, ensuring that it was truly outside before I closed it back up.
Coming back to you, I wiped away a tear that had fallen from your eye, pulling you in for a hug. “You know little one, I know that spiders can be very scary when we don’t expect them to be here, but they’re just little bugs, just like caterpillars and worms. You don’t have to be afraid of them!”
“Do you think that was a friendly spider Sissy?”
I nodded, “of course I do little one! I think most spiders are very friendly, but you know what? Its okay to be a little nervous, so if you ever see one and you’re scared, just call for me and I’ll be right there to save the day!”
♡ Muddy Puppy ♡
Look at you! Oh my, my sweet little puppy must’ve had a lot of fun playing outside, hm? I’m so glad! Of course you’re the best pup in the world, but I think its time for a bath now, how about you? What? Puppies don’t get baths? Well I have to say I disagree little one, you’re tracking mud all over the kitchen! Lets get you cleaned up and then we can make a nice snack, you must be exhausted from all that running around! Would a bubble bath be more tempting to you? Thats what I thought! Now, I’ll go start the bath, of course I won’t forget the bubbles! Scooby Snacks? I think we have some! As soon as you’re out of the tub I’ll bring you some, don’t you worry! Lets just get you nice and clean before we worry about anything else little bug.
♡ Cranky Car Rides ♡
Oh, yes I know we’ve been in the car for a long time little one, how about you look in the bag I packed you and see if you can’t find a paci or a toy you’d like to entertain yourself with till we’re home? Oh, you don’t want a toy? Thats okay… how about you and I play a game? Let’s see, Abby Apple ate a…. now you keep the story going with words that start with b! Hmm, no games either? Okay! Do you want to listen to some music? You can put on anything you want little bug! Hm, no music either? Okay… I know! Look at that sign! There’s an ice cream shop right off the next exit! We can stop there okay? Yep! You can get anything you want, anything at all! Well, I don’t think a little baby like yourself needs ten whole scoops of ice cream, that would be a lot for anybody to eat! Let’s just see what they have on the menu, okay little love? I bet its going to be so much fun, and super duper tasty too!
♡ Star gazing ♡
The night sky was beautiful that night, perfectly clear and open, a soft blanket of thousands of glittering stars stretched out above our heads.
You had wanted to go star gazing, the stars felt like home, you had told me, and who was I to say no to such a sweet little angels special request?
We brought out a blanket, some snacks, and some juice boxes, laid out our spread and looked up into the sky, admiring the beautiful world so far above our heads.
“And up there! Thats the tail of the little dipper! And if you look over that way, you should be able to see the big dipper too!” You babbled on excitedly besides me, listing off the stars and constellations that you could see, and with each one you named, I squinted in the direction you were pointing.
I’d never been very good at astronomy, but to hear your sweet little voice, so full of joy and wonder, it made me wish I could list every star in the sky for my little one.
As it grew later, you began to grow quiet, only breaking the silence with an intermittent yawn.
I reached over and ruffled your hair, “do you want to head in for bed little one?” You replied only with a sleepy yawn, and I gently scooped you up to bring you inside for bed.
As we walked towards the front door, you let out a small gasp and whispered “Sissy! Look over there!” I turned justnin time to catch the tail end of a shooting star going over the horizon.
“What are you going to wish for little one?”
You giggled, “is a secret sissy, if I tell you, it won’t come true!”
I laughed and continued back to the house, “of course love, we wouldn’t want you to loose your wish, now would we?”
