There are classic sayings that twin parents deal with everyday from well-meaning strangers: "You have your hands full," "Double the trouble," "God bless you," "Are they twins?" "Girl and Boy?""How do you do it?" "Double the blessing!" These girls are rockstars. Getting down the aisle in a grocery store without a comment is pretty rare. When they are screaming from hunger and Carter is in tow, I usually mumble some response and politely smile as I turbo through hoping I can leave the building alive with my three holy terrors. And then...there are moments like this picture...when I can pause and think....yup, double the blessing.

"Double the Blessing"

Hi Jennie-
What cute girls and a handsome little boy! How are you guys doing? It's been a long time since I've caught up with you. I was thinking about how funny it was that we met you and Mike in line for a play.
I miss the writing group. (This is Stephanie, by the way) Have you started one in Boston? Have fun with your double (triple with Carter) blessings!
What a beautiful family you have- so happy, and enjoying life to the fullest! Keep it up, you are an inspiration to us all. Love, Christine
Absolutely beautiful!
What cutie patuties, all of them. Aunt Paige wants to come visit. Hugs and kisses all around
Jennie, that is really a terrific picture of the girls! So cute! We can't wait to meet them ---
They've grown so much! Isn't it amazing how Carter can be so masculine, and the girls can be so feminine, and yet all three look exactly alike? Will your darling family be doing any traveling this holiday season? I'm excited to meet Sammie and Cate, and introduce you to our little Jennie.
I LOVE THIS PICTURE! I wish it was this calm and peaceful all the time--regadless, you handle it with such style and grace! Love you tons Jennie.
