As a mom
of TWINS
there have been
so many times
when I hesitate
simply because
there are TWO!
But at the same time
when someone asks,
WOW twins...
how do you do it?!
My reply is
I just do!
I have to
I have no
other choice.
There are many things
I feel
I would have done
with just one...
just yesterday
a year ago
I took home
just one.
Easton John
came into our home
alone.
And you know
as much as
I LOVED
having him home,
we were not
complete.
So all the things
that could have
that would have
that might have
happened
if there was
just one...
mean nothing to me
because we
have been blessed
with TWO.
And so today
we had
Twice as much fun
Twice as much mess
and
Twice as much artwork!!!
because Mommy
decided to
Just do it!
Let me just say
I have been
thinking
plotting
planning
wanting
to do anything
fun and creative
with them.
So with nothing but
time to kill
I threw em in
the pack n play
while I ran around
like a mad woman
so excited
SO EXCITED
and ready to
create!
The kitchen
made a perfect studio.
I will never look
at my kitchen
the same way again.
They were confined,
had to get through me
to go anywhere else.
The counter space
was perfect for
the artwork,
which was out of the way
of the mini messy monsters.
We were a
lean
mean
printing machine.
one foot
one hand
one mess
at a time.
I thought about
doing it with
just one...
at a time.
Leave the other
in the pack n play.
But as soon as
I reached for
just one
it did NOT feel right.
Sooo out came
the BOTH of them
we all
just did it!
Clean up
was probably
their favorite.
I let em
just play
with the water
while I washed
and dried
tried to anyway.
They were soaking wet
but clean!
I too was soaking wet
but NOT clean!
I will do this
AGAIN!
I had a blast.
I felt a rush.
The rush of
production.
The rush of
creativity.
The rush of
just doing it!
Sometimes,
I do wish
I had about
3 more arms.
If
I did
I would have
way more pictures.
That is the only thing
I wanted to do
differently.
But that's ok.
I got what I got.
And if anything
I got artwork!
I got memories!
and
I got confidence!
I can
just do it!
By the way,
this girl...
LOVED it!
Easton had fun,
don't get me wrong.
We all had fun.
But she
was so into it!!!
She did not
want to wait
for her turn.
And she did not
want to stop.
I am encouragingeveryone
to just do it!
Whatever IT is...
just do it!
You are so wonderful. I totally agree. We need to just do it over a bit, too. Thanks!
