Why do I feel embarrassed

Today I asked Daddy if I could try his switch playing animal crossing because I was just a little world to escape into and allow myself to feel little but I couldn’t even word it like that. Like I just said the first part, I get so scared and nervous to express things that make me feel little like I’m scared he’s gonna judge me? But I don’t think he actually would, I just feel embarrassed for allowing myself to be little because I always have to be the strong one holding it all together until I met Daddy. Why do I feel shy? How do I overcome this? Is this normal?
