Best Friends

"You have twins? How DO you do it?". We are often asked about how exhausting and frustrating it can be having TWO two year olds. To those folks, I would say that having twins is GREAT, especially at this age. One of the best things to watch is the bond they have. As a parent, it is so heartwarming to see that your children have a best friend. Here are some photos of a few best friends.....

The Super Hero, The Princess, & Their Moms

Despite our best efforts to bypass gender role stereotypes, our two toddlers have other ideas. The kids have recently entered the fascinating world of their own imaginations. As we watch them "cook" in their play kitchen, feed invisible chickens, and "fly" through the air with their capes and fairy wings, we are reminded that their world is much more complex and intelligent than our adult existence will ever be. If adults only had such great creativity, we wouldn't get stuck in mundane routines at work, wouldn't get bored with our monotonous daily commute, and would always recognize the wonder of the world that is right in front of us. O.K., enough ramblings of a super hero's mother....Let's get to the pictures!
