I also think they have special “antennas” to sense that.

I think it just seems that way. But I get what you mean!

Remembered this post, as I had this happen tonight.

LOL!! Kids will always know when YOU need time alone, or feeling a bit deflated.. That is when they just want to be around you even more..

Oh yes, they can sense it!

You are definitely not alone – happens in my house as well (nearly every night!)

No, it’s not just your kids, my kids always seem to play up when I’m really tired too!
