Twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three.
On September 19th that will be the ages of these three:
Hard to tell who is what age isn’t it?
Many people get the kids’ birth order confused.
They usually guess Cara (middle) as the oldest, but getting Nate and Danae in the correct birth order stumps some people, and that is very easy to understand – since they are only 15 months apart in age.
All three kids were born in a time span of 2 years and 9 months.
That’s 3 under 3.
2 in diapers.
and only 1 “walker”.
(Nate didn’t walk til he was 18 months!)
Raising three kids so close in age was fun.
and hard.
but it’s all we knew – and we wouldn’t change a thing.
Right honey?
Truth is, raising kids is tough work.
Our three were no exception.
Oh the fighting, crying, tattling, & whining that ensued . . .
and that was just the teenage years
but I am happy to report that they do, finally, get along.
Most of the time .
C’mon we are human, and normal (sort of), and we still have our moments of disagreement and frustration with each other.
I don’t think I’ve heard anyone called a “poophead” lately
which must mean we have made SOME progress
Moms of young ones – remember this:
— The days go by slow,
but the years go by fast —
When Danae turned one, I went through the years in my mind —
we would have a:
1, 2 and 3 year old
7, 8 and 9 year old
10, 11 and 12 year old
13, 14 and15 year old
17, 18 and 19 year old
28, 29 and 30 year old !! ?
Jeepers, that’s only 7 years away!
I think I better go lay down now.
