PEACE ON EARTH Ya'LL

Back when the triplets were just 9 months old- times where tough. The triplets were going thru a separation anxiety phase. Not just wanting to be in the same room with me but had to be touching me at all times. Could not even sit on the sofa because all three could not be touching me – I had to sit on the floor hold two in my arms and one would stretch across my legs. As I am typing this – I realized a lot can be said about age. I don’t think my 40 year old back can handle what my 32 year back had to deal with.
I was furniture for at least 5 months. Probably more but my mind will not let me remember all the painful details – kind of like child birth. We had a tri – level house (Main floor – 4 steps take you upstairs to the bedrooms – 4 steps took you downstairs to the family room and office). Those 4 steps were torture – as soon as I headed towards those steps all three of them started THE CRY. You know The Cry. Starts with the look of anxiety one of their faces. Quickly escalates into a small whining from another. And then becomes a full blown wailing and bawling and sobbing. All three at the same time. What a lovely sight. In fact that was my Christmas card that year.
