this sounds a bit of a daft question but I am a bit worried about it.
I recently went on holiday with my 2 nieces aged 6 and 3. Now when 6yr old was born, I adored her, bought her loads of clothes, had photos of her everywhere etc etc. However, when we went on holiday, although I still love her, I found myself wanting to be around 3yr old cos she's just so cute and funny and the 6yr old was just a bit....er,dare I say it, boring. She's not cute anymore and although she's very good and sweet I found I wanted the company of the 3yr old more.
I've found the same thing with my friends kids, a little boy who was just the cutest and funny little baby and toddler is now 6 and i don't really know how to play/talk with him anymore.
I'm a bit concerned when my daughter is between the ages of 6-13, I'm going to find her 'boring'.
Am I horrible or is this a concern anyone else has?

do you still enjoy your kids when they're not 'cute' anymore?
