Who knew that I would have to take off the buttons from my heaters and use them as a key to keep twinny hands from messing with them?
Who knew that a 16 month old could scale a 5 shelf bookcase in 10 seconds flat?
Who knew that a four year old could actually serve as an extra hand for mom?
Who knew that it takes precisely 4.6 seconds to tear all of the pages out of a brand new book?
Who knew that 18 month old can dump an entire 20 oz mocha in 2 seconds? (Don’t worry they are never hot by the time I actually sit down to drink them.)
Who knew that you are only allowed a few solid nights of sleep with twins even when they are toddlers?
Who knew that two “identical” babies could be soooooo very different?
Who knew that two plus two equals three? (when two babies work at something, their abilities are far greater than any two babies alone.)
Along the journey of life it never occurred to us that we would have 6 children – and definitely not that the last ones would be twins. So you can imagine our surprise and delight at discovering the amazing gifts we had been given through these unexpected blessings! They are a constant source of joy and happiness and ever entertaining and fun. Reminding us daily of the simplicity and amazement of God’s creation.
Oh, I could keep going forever, but I’ll leave it there
