In our house there are lots of hysterical cackles and red-faced tickling episodes! To walk in and hear the love-hate of being tickled one may hear boisterous giggles accompanied by "stop! stop!" and "more! more!" My duke likes to try "I just want a hug! Just a hug," when all he really wants is to be tickled just a few more times! No, I know better than to fall to his sweetie-pie manipulation. So, being the willing Mommy, I oblige until they just can't taking it anymore!
I love this pasttime mainly because of one older sister of mine that would repeatedly "TICKLE TORCH" me until I cried; not that I want my kids to cry, but it was a bonding that I didn't share with anyone else. I am that girl who laughs so hard and so hysterically that I have to lay on the floor no matter where I am and do a sort of lamaze deep breathing of OOHs and AAHs to gain a tiny ounce of self control, or else unimaginable things happen! Well, you may be able to imagine... Isn't this what you really wanted to know!
Needless to say my duke, duchess and I share that same feeling of elation and joy and pain after a tickle session that one still longs for. It is actually part of my ritual with them before they drift off to sleep (hours after "bedtime") to dream of happiness and joys of life! Try it, you will like it! I promise
