Somethings Going to Give...

I saw a T-shirt today...It said, "I laugh at your one baby!" How true. Nothing against raising a child or children born singleton but there is nothing that compares to having multiples. But with the good comes the bad. Twice the love, twice the diapers. Twice the fun, twice the bills. You get the picture. Only parents with multiples get it. It isn't a bad thing, you just didn't get the invitation to the Twins Restaurant. Not everyone can go! Someone has to stay behind and scrub the floors!

Mom N' Dad watch the singleton mom and dads in the NICU and they all look at us with the same face. The "I am so glad we are not in your shoes" face! Tonight is a strange night. Both Mom N' Dad feel the same way. We both want to be with our babies at the NICU...but neither one of us have the energy. We are not bad parents...we just physically can't do it day in and day out. Watching your kids O2 stats and heart rate drop, albeit for a few seconds, is gut wrenching and it hurts the same the 100th time as it did the 1st.
