Is it normal to love your kids so much?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes. Loving your kids so intensely that it surprises or overwhelms you is a very normal part of being a parent for many people.

Absolutely. For lots of parents, love for their kids feels enormous—sometimes fierce, tender, and a little hard to believe. It can hit you during an ordinary moment, like watching them sleep or hearing them laugh, and suddenly your heart is doing the most.

There’s no required level or style of parental love, and you don’t have to feel glowing and adoring every minute to be a loving parent. Exhaustion, frustration, and needing time to yourself can all coexist with loving your kids to bits.
