Counting blessings

Paging through an online twin forum recently, I was struck by how lucky I am with my boys. There are hundreds of posts from parents whose children bite, fight constantly, scream, refuse to eat, have trouble at preschool and a variety of other issues. Yikes.

My kids aren’t perfect, but for three year olds, I’m starting to think they’re pretty darn close. Sure, they have spats once in a while – but nothing like the tales I’ve read online. Don’t get me wrong, parenting twins alone isn’t easy. The routine is often tiring. Some days I wonder how I will make it through the week.

Still, I’m extraordinarily blessed with these little guys. Here’s hoping the good fortune extends into the teen years!
