P didn't want to take a nap today. And I didn't want to fight with her. So while K slept, P got some alone/Mommy time.

And oh my goodness! That kid was cracking me up!

Let me say, we have never intentionally separated the girls. We have also never intentionally kept them together. Maybe we should have done one or the other, or both. But we are learning about parenting, and parenting twins, as we go. So who knows if we are doing it right. We just do what we think we should do, and what the girls seem to like.

They have spend about 0 time apart.

So while K was napping, P was pretty dang funny.

"Mommy, where K?"
"She's sleeping, Hun."
"I go wake her up!" (to which I said no!)

"Mommy, play my horsey?" followed by "Look, my cow!" then "Read a book?" and so many others! The kid wanted my undivided attention! I know, that is normal for a two year old. But not for my two year olds! They have each other to interact with, so there are many many times where I am an afterthought.

It was fun, though, to have P to myself. I got to really focus on her. And I gotta say, I have amazing kids. And she really loves her sister.

When I finally agreed to wake up K (after P had asked a trillion times and it was their usual wake-up time), P went running in to their room, turned on the light, ran to the side of the crib and yelled "K! I found you!"

My kids wake up like I do- the world is just not worth our effort for the first few minutes. So poor P was too excited to have sis back, and K just wanted her to go away. K was sleeping, she had no idea that P wasn't around. But as soon as she woke up, the two monsters were best friends and nearly inseparable once again.

All was right with the world.
