Taylor had a therapy appointment at the clinic today. This gave me an hour of one-on-one time with just Paige. During this hour, I decided to take Paige to a nearby park to walk around the lake and look at the ducks.
It was a real treat for me to just spend time with one of the girls since this is always a rare occurrence for me. As we walked along the water’s edge, Paige and I chatted about all the ducks. Paige was very talkative since she didn't have to compete with her big sister Taylor who usually likes to dominate the conversations. She would point out a couple of ducks resting under a tree and would say, “Look, ducks are sleeping.” We walked a little further and happened upon a little family of ducks with 3 or 4 little ducklings and Paige said, “Momma and dada ducks and baby ducks.” Then, she would count the ducks saying, “One baby duck, two baby duck, three baby duck…”
Once we’d finished talking about the ducks, Paige directed her attention towards the water fountains shooting up in the center of the lake and said, “A waterfall, how vonderbul.” (Translation for vonderbul – that's Paige speak for wonderful).
I really enjoyed this time with just Paige. My only regret was that I didn’t have my camera with me today.
Welcome!
Welcome to my blog - it's like a diary only better. This is my soapbox containing a collection of my thoughts and the experiences of my life raising twins.
Prior to this blog, prior to marriage and prior to the twinsanity that I now call my life, life was quite different for me. When you visit this blog, you won’t find me writing much about my life pre-twins – I hope that’s okay. Why? You ask. Because life with twins changes everything and my life pre-multiples is now just a dizzy, distant memory. And while it’s true that life years ago may have been a little more glamorous, the life I live now is a whole lot more rewarding and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
I’m glad you’ve stopped by...there’s a really strong chance that I won’t offer anything extraordinary here, but by the same token there is also the possibility that you will experience a taste of the adventures, challenges and many joys that come with my life with twins. Hopefully that will be enough to bring you back here again.
