More "two" life

Next month my fun loving twin boys turn 3! What a journey it has been. My singleton girls did not prepare me for two year old twin boys. Boys seem to be a lot more spirited, with cuts, bruises, stitches and the false reality to think they can fly. I am more tired chasing them for two hours than I am running around at work on my feet for eight. Yet my kids are my lights. Those same kids running around can be the most gentle children giving you snuggles & hugs and then smack you in the face and run off laughing. My girls are incredible too. I swear they make you learn so much in grade school. I remember taking naps in kindergarten and now my kindergartner creates art masterpieces and has a packet of homework each week. My 2nd grader is learning math I don't recall being taught in second grade. I fear for high school when I look at the math and say, I am sorry I can not help you with this.
