More on the Twins:

Since blogger would not cooperate and upload my pics in a timely manner, I did not elaborate on my Twins Birthday post.  But now with all this free time I have (3 kids down with strep, two more possible, the Old Guy leaving for a Super Bowl overnight with his pals, Kat, Tom and Reubs going to Kelly's for the Superbowl... yes I am up to it in free time) I can put a few stray thoughts to e-paper.

How can I even start with these two kids?  I love them so, I can hardly find the words to describe it.  When I first saw them, back last April, playing together at the DFPS in TX, my heart just melted.  I had a HUGE lump in my throat (surprising my own, I don't cry about much, self).  Oh my... that God would bless me with such beautiful, sweet children as this? 
When he first came to us, Tony had a habit of biting people and calling them a bi***.  I mean he just let it fly whenever and wherever.  We have not heard that for quite a while now, but what we do hear is "Good morning Dad!  I love you Dad!  I am sorry Mom (ok, when pressed)" and a host of other friendly, 5 yr old boy phrases :)
Tamira... well she is oh so cute.  She ends a lot of her sentences with "even."  As in: "For my birthday.... I want a doll... and a baby bottle.... and a purse even!"  or "When you tucked me in last night?  I had my doll... but I did not have BOTH my dolls even."
Oh these kids are sweet... Even though if she opens her mouth Tamira is likely lying (more than likely).  Tony can NOT to save himself, use the toilet.  He is STILL likely to flip out and say "I want a different house!"  But when he calms down he really wants a hug.
Tamira lies about EVERYthing.  But she still just wants to know:  "Can you tuck me in even?"
Oh how blessed I am :)
