This week as we have embarked on a new community all week for dad's work it has only highlighted how different the Twins are as individuals, yet how close they are as brothers. It led to the thought of how much my wife loves how chocolate and strawberries go together and yet are still pleasantly good on their own. One twin falls asleep easily while the other fights for each extra second. One twin will fist bump any and everyone while the other takes a minute to warm up to new people. One twin will try any food offered while the other waits to see if his brother likes it! One must have their socks on perfectly while another will swiftly stick them on halfway and run out the door. Through it all, the most amusing part is that these nuances are the same each day, but who decides to act on them rotates. When people think they have it figured out the twins decide to flip a switch. The one thing they cling to considerably is flavors of ice cream. One always asks for chocolate while the other always asks for strawberry. Their love, their competitiveness, their humor, and their bond do not waver. But on any given day they may introduce themselves as the other twin which has been hilarious this week or on any given introduction you might get shy or energetic. They undoubtedly will form into a Chocoberry and make you figure it all out! As parents we are so grateful for the Lord choosing us to be twin parents and love the 5 Finds you bring to life each week that are comical and make Twin-DadHood humor-provoking…..
1. 2 of 2 twins and 9 out of 10 toddlers recommend drinking bath water!!
2. Me: No more talking. Good night!! Twins: Did you know you could throw a rock into a river and be the last person to touch that rock until the end of time??
3. Sometimes I am amazed that my wife and I created two human beings from scratch yet struggle to figure what we want for dinner!!
4. Oh, sorry we’re late… the twins decided to ask what one hundred plus one hundred is, one hundred times and did not like when I told them two hundred, one hundred times!!
5. The way 4-yo twins use toothpaste I promise you they’ll never have a cavity in their bathroom sink!!
