My twins started preschool this week too! In the blink of any eye the past two years have come and gone, life with twins and an older daughter has extremely busy. The girls are my *babies*, we rarely refer to them as the twins, typically just as *the babies*, although they are officially toddlers now. They are part-time preschoolers, which is about all momma can handle, and lets just say they don’t have their older sister’s sense of independence. There were some tears from all 3 of us, but I am told theirs didn’t last long. The first day they hid under a blanket together, with the whole “if I can’t see you, you can’t see me” thinking for awhile, and today I am told they sat together on a mat to comfort each other. It does make it easier knowing they have each other, they certainly have a special bond. Even though there were tears on the first day, they still came home on cloud nine that they now have their own school shirts and bags, just like their big sister. They insisted on changing into their shirts as soon as we got home, and demanded on wearing them again (and bringing their bags) the next day to Target. Today they were all smiles when I picked them up, showing me that they got stamps (belly stamps on friday), and they were so proud to tell me they didn’t cover their eyes….which meant they didn’t go hide, lol. Its clearly been a great thing for them, our shy one has already come out of her shell, rambling about her day and the wild one has been busy entertaining her teachers with her personality. I know it goes by all too fast, if I’m not careful I will blink again and it will be time to post about their first day of kindergarten, and I’m just not ready for that!
