A Bit of Both Worlds

Ever since my partner and I started exploring DDLG dynamics a few years ago, I've found myself oscillating between feeling like the carefree little one and the nurturing caregiver. Today was particularly interesting, after work, I came home to find him already waiting with a game planned out for us. The setting was playful but also had that undercurrent of discipline. We played it out for hours, giggling like kids one moment and then diving into something deeper the next. It's so exhilarating to switch back and forth between these roles. But lately, I've been wondering if this constant switching is normal or if I should settle on just one role more permanently. What do you think? Is it okay to keep bouncing between being a little and caring for my partner in equal measure?
