Hold me in Your Arms!

There is one 5-year-old preschooler who asks me to hold her in my arms every time I visit the Kindergarten. Today I asked her whether her mother holds her in her arms. Without looking up at me, the girl said, "No, my mom doesn't hold me in her arms." (I wanted to ask her what about her father, but I didn't because I feared maybe she didn't have one.) Perhaps her mother has been pregnant. Or maybe she is a little cold to her child.

I completed the first half of my survey with about 20 preschoolers today. I will carry out the second half tomorrow.
