One day they became friends. Was it on this day, when I found them giggling together on the couch, that they discovered how much they liked each other? Was this when Twin Mode was born–the phrase M and I use to refer to Sam and Elisabeth when they’re in their own worlds? I’m not sure, but the complete compatibility of two of your children is such a fun blessing.
One day, shortly after they learned to walk, they got the giggles. Millions of times they got the giggles, but here’s a day I remember. Elisabeth (Ellie back then) encouraging Sam to walk and Sam giggling too hard to try.
One day we decided Sam and Elisabeth needed to potty someplace other than the diapers that were a major item on our monthly budget. Oh, the silliness this introduced to our chaotic household. Me chasing them around to change their wet pants. Them shrieking and running away. And laughing.
