Default A memorable day

"Good bye! says the nevrous mother as she walks out the front door. Hankie in hand tears streaming down the face.

Ive never left them overnight with anyone before.! "See you in a couple of days!" Don't worry have fun we shout!

The door closes. There standing in front of us on wobbiling legs are the twins. Nate and Brynn, just started walking and are now mobile. 14 months old.

They look up at us with those little eyes. I turn to Ruth and say. Ohhhhh Boy what do we do now! It's going to be a interesting weekend!

You guys fill in the rest. The saga continues!

Treasure every moment! It doesn't last long. Soon their lives will be filled with school, games, and girls and you'll wish for those "wobbly legs" once again. Trust me, I know!

Do not complain. Believe me. In two weeks they will be in college. It recently happened to us.

But....the memories are there for always.

They got their bottles before bedtime. Then Grandma got her's LOL! I must have thrown out the manual Skyguy after mine left home! Somehow I don't remember those days.

We did the PeeWee Big adventure trip to the Zoo. Then to Quaker Steak and Lube for supper. Its a CarGuy thing. Babies on sensory overload with all the Motocycles hanging from the ceiling with the lights and action. So darn cool watching them. Like baby computers just absorbing all that goes on.
