The day I found out I was having twins- a mixture of emotions flooded through me. With an extensive education in mental health- so much swirled through my head and so much anxiety I don't think I would have had if I was having a singleton pregnancy. I wondered how they would get along. I wondered if they would compete against each other or if they would get together to outsmart Mom and Dad. I never pretend to have all the answers- heck I've only been doing this parenting thing for a little over 18 months. Bur this weekend I felt like a supermom! No- I didn't do any cool pinterest worthy crafts, yes I did manage to get four kids to target, old navy, chickfila., coldstone and the mall but that wasn't what did it. Although pushing my triple in public always either makes me feel like a sideshow act or a superhero (thank you random strangers for all your comments in regards to my kids- yes they are ALL mine, no they're not triplets, and well how do I do it-
I'm awesome I don't have any other option but to do it). Anyways, after that long rant I bring you the moment that made my momma heart overflow and gave me that reassurance that I am doing SOMETHING right:
You see that right there! Those are my two baby girls hugging AND kissing each other for NO reason! I did not tell them to do this in fact I wasn't even watching them I was putting their sister in the car when my stepdaughter calls me over and I see THIS!!!! Every night I pray that all my girls will grow up with a special bond and that they will develop a great friendship. Sometimes I question myself because the girls do fight- they bite, they push, and they pull hair. Not always and granted it usually involves some toy the other one wants. BUT moments like this- let me know that if nothing else I am teaching my girls LOVE and that ladies makes this momma so happy.
XOXO, Ally
