Today was incredible. Today my kids splashed in puddles and played in boxes. They made "jungle caves" and all squeezed in. See, with twins this was my life everyday. Two little best friends trotting away hand in hand each day. Totally content to play and imagine together. Very little fighting. Ever. Well you know the phrase "twos company, three is a crowd?" Yeah, we've found this to be true. It's truly difficult for three little people to all play well TOGETHER. Two playing together and one playing alone works. But for some reason when all three try to play something it always ends in someone screaming.
But not today. Today they ran around the yard and played and played and played. Totally independent of me. Well, I of course got to taste numerous pretend strawberry pancakes and chocolate tea, but aside from that I sat and read and drank coffee on my porch swing. Like I said, heavenly. Days like today make me smile. They make the ones where everyone is pulling hair and whining much more tolerable.
I love seeing this new dynamic not just "work" but "blossom!"
Happy Monday everyone!
Morning snuggles with littlest one. :)
Hours upon hours in the boxes.
"Napping" in the box.
This is the result of me picking up a book while they played. They are sneaky little ones.
After naps. More box time and playdough. Really, everyone should just get big boxes and toss them in the yard!
Snuggles with my last one standing tonight!
