Wow.
You girls turn 4 today.
Life goes so quickly sometimes, and I forget that you were indeed, this small...
I blinked, and here we are.
You're 4!
My girls, my 1st set of twins, my most active kiddos at the moment :)...
You both challenge me, you intrigue me, and you push me to be a better mommy.
Thank you. I need that push.
This last year has been wonderful. The changes you have made, well, are countless.
Just the other night at Urgent Care (cause you both had strep throat!), you pointed at the door on the way out and said, "Look! E-X-I-T, Exit!" As I shuffled around looking for my keys and organizing prescriptions, I looked down and thought, "did they just say that??" I watched you take each others hand as we walked to the car, and I had a Mommy Moment.
You know the ones. Those sweet moments.
Mercy. You are growing, you are learning, and you are turning into "little girls." Be still my heart.
Charlotte. My self soother, my Char, my Charlotte Grace. Your laugh is contagious, and your smile is priceless. You're sharp, funny, and sweet. Your attention to detail baffles us. I loovve how you smile so big that your eyes actually close, we should all smile that big...
Reese. My know-it-all, my Reese Olivia, my Cindy Lou Hoo. You are a bundle of fun. You are athletic, fearless, and your smile melts my heart. You are one smart, savvy little girl, and we are always cracking up at your amazingly funny sense of humor. You are, too cute...
4 years ago today I held you for the 1st time. Those moments were some of the best moments of my life. And ever since then, you have made my life richer, every day. 
My babies, I look forward to spending today with just the 2 of you. Let's go to breakfast, take some pictures in your new dresses, pick out decorations for your party this Sunday, and then go get us some Polka Dot Cupcakes - sound good?

Sounds like a fun day! Enjoy your 4 year olds today.
Don't blink, or they will be grown up (as my sweet twins are). 21 years ago I held my twins in my arms. Sweet memories! I love that I get to relive my "twin moments" through you and Twinsanity.
