Yesterday,the whole family went shopping. Of course,the twins managed to run us around and drive us crazy. Crazy to the point that I started looking around for some draft beer,even that I committed to have a cleansing,alcohol free week! Well,I still managed to stay away from it,and calm my nerves down with some great Aloe juice drink from Thailand. At some point,the only thing a mother of twins can do is depend on great family support and ship her kids with them to another store. I managed to sneak in some 10 minutes of alone shopping and strayed into a girls store. All the glitter and the pink didn’t overwhelm me. I am morally prepared for it as is. However,something strange overcame me for the first time. As I was looking around,tears came to my eyes. As I saw my girls shopping in this store in 3 years:with their opinions,their fashions,maybe even their friends. All of the sudden,their tantrums,and their enjoyment of torture no longer mattered. This is the moment,just once,just this time. Whatever it brings,I enjoy it. Because in 5 minutes I will miss it.
