life with twins is wonderful and rewarding and scary and frustrating and all of the things that life is with kids, times two. at the eye doctor yesterday, i found out that i have eye muscle imbalance. simply, my eyes do not work together to focus on exactly the same thing.

half of the sand you see here was at the bottom of the bath at home later in the evening. that is proof of fun had. (i am not sure how clover is going to deal with peta’s return to new zealand…as you can see here, they are the best of friends.)
