Athena had her best buddy Amelia
over for an all day play date.
over for an all day play date.
We made cookies.
Which the Dude really appreciated.
And I learned a couple of things...
1. It is sooo much easier to take care of two children rather than three.
During dinner and bed and bath time, it was practically tranquil.
Not to knock Moms of two, all parenthood is challenging,
but seriously, when three is your normal,
two kids = piece of cake.
2. Zoe and Athena's differences compliment each other really well.
Amelia is a brown-eyed version of Athena,
and their similar energy fed off each other until it was at a fever pitch.
Zoe is the yin to Athena's yang.
Where one insists on having a pink cup, the other doesn't care.
Where one is loud the other is quiet. They balance each other beautifully.
3. Athena is lost without her sister
(just as much as Zoe is lost without her Athena).

Back when we "just had twins" I used to think the same thing about people with just one kid. It's a whole new (peaceful) dynamic when you're one-kid-down.
The yin to her yang, funny and beautiful what they give to each other. They are truly sisters for life.
I think KayTar counts for at least two kids most days, LOL....but I know what you mean, when one is gone the house seems like a ghost town!
Oh wow, how right you are about #1!!
