    I just have to say that we are all so lucky - we have two babies to love, cherish, and enjoy. I know it is hard and frustrating and there are lots of days where I want to just throw up my hands and say 'forget it', but really, when it comes down to it, this is the most amazing thing to have happen.

    I was just thinking that this morning at breakfast as the girls passed Cheerios between each other, laughing and giggling. Course, now as I'm trying to figure out the whole nap transition, I'm back to the frustrating part, but it all comes and goes.

    Just wanted to give some encouragement or smiles to everyone today.

    You are so right!! There are days when I stay so frustrated because they have tested my patience (and sanity) :wacko: , but then I have to stop and realize what really matters and how blessed I really am. Thanks for reminding me of that this morning!!

    It is so true--2 babies at one time--what a miracle. I am still amazed 10months later!

    Thanks,

    I was just thinking something similar this morning... what a great life this is turning out to be. And who would have known 10 months ago during all of the reflux and sleepless nights that I would actually enjoy having twins so much?!

    WOW - did I need this today! Thank you so much. Mine have not been sleeping at all and I have been so tired. But, they are the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. Thanks for pinching me!

    What a wonderful, important reminder! I needed this after Jonathan woke up screaming at 5:40 a.m. and would not stop!!! We are all truly blessed to have our children, even if they make us crazy every once in a while! :lol:

    You are so very right. :wub: I too love having twin girls. It's trying, but isn't parenthood anyway? This is truly the best "job" ever.

    Thanks for posting this, you certainly made me smile! :friends:
