Buddies

We are enter that golden time in parenting where our kids are "colleagues".

You say, with the two of them in a room, "find a partner"...  they find each other and hold hands.

They hug to apologize for a previous push-down, punch, slap, or general infraction.

It's getting easier to have two kids so close together every day. 

There were moments when I think "what did we do???"

We get quizzical looks when folks ask how old they are... are they twins... how far apart they are...

I want to yell... BUT INFERTILITY.

But mostly, I'm so grateful they are buddies.

Usually.

What a difference 12 months makes.
