First and foremost, I can't seem to wake up fully today... Sunday was busy for everyone, so I took it as a day to relax, get some sketches done (as per my last blog-post, trying to tease Daddy)
As Saturday slid into Sunday and it was past midnight- Master and I sat down and reviewed how our special littles day event went.
We discussed things we liked, didn't like, and what we might carry in the future days we dedicate to the littles-trait.
I still stand by what I said. I don't see myself as a full fledged little, and here's a couple reasons why.
Firstly, I can jump in and out of "The little box" as I've come to call it- very quickly the same way someone might slide in and out of water. Just from research and discussion, I know for some littles (Keyword some, not all) once they're in the space, it's similar to subspace. Leaving little-space is turbulent and mentally taxing, if not even a little jarring depending on how they "resurface" from that space.
I'd even go so far as to equate it with a form of sub-drop.
Secondly, My mind and whims are fickle, and change daily. So that Saturday, littles day was amazing! However, come Sunday- I want to be recognized as an adult again. Things littles love in little-space or in a 24/7 dynamic may come to irritate me, or frustrate me.
Thirdly, I don't see any specific "Age range" I'd fall into. I've noticed some littles know what age-range they fall into. 1-3, 4-7, 7-9, 10-12, 13+ (Teens) -- When I go into the little-box I'm a blend of a wide range of ages. (Which, for those who are like me, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that!)
In the end, discussing it all with Daddy- this was a place of learning oneself, growing, and exploration. I'm so thankful Master/Daddy was there to essentially hold my hand, and explore with me. We both got to discover/rediscover parts of ourselves, but some really nice new doors opened for us.
I discovered some hidden joys that can be found in the little-box.
A big one, was for Daddy. He rediscovered a few things he really enjoyed within such a dynamic, and I got to watch those 'wings unfurl' for the first time in a long time for him. It was beautiful to watch, and I'm so proud and happy I was the one to help him rediscover that delight.
Bonuses we picked up together:
Master is allowing me to call him 'Daddy' interchangeably. (when suitable, some times/places require certain titles. Ie: Littles day will be Daddy only.)
In return, I've gotten a new nickname! Master now calls me his Cherry Blossom, which greatly amuses me because that's the theme I've been using with my blog for the Littles day event! (Inspiration maybe?)
In future Littles day events, if we're physically together, we'll have outings! Like Aquarium visits, going out for ice-cream, etc. I love this!
In hand to the above; if we go to a restaurant, I am submitting the power to Daddy to order my food for me, since at that time. Daddy knows best for his little girl.
There was mention of future stuffies coming to my collection, so I'm all kinds of ramped up for that!!! I love stuffies!
In conclusion: I will say that I will retain what I had been saying before. I have the traits I love embracing. Kind of a really fun way to wax nostalgia, make the inner child within squeal with happy delight and relish in a simpler, happier time prior to adult-stressors.
I will happily be doing littles-day again.
Thank you again to everyone who participated. We love seeing the activity, the comments, the encouragement, excitement, and delight in turn.
We hope to have everyone participate on our next "littles day"
And again- a special thank you to SSG (SensualSubGirl) for this brilliant idea. Because of you, you've not only set up inspiration for a lot of fun during these hard times. But, also helped new doors open for our Dynamic (and maybe for a few others as well.)
I talked with Master and we were talking about having a "pet day" for the animals out there. I'll admit, more research will be needed and I will be heavily leaning on Master to guide my through the activities for this.
However, this will be for another blog.
Cheers~
