Letters and Numbers

Lately I've been hearing the twins reciting the alphabets and counting up to 10.  I feel happy about this new skills they have learned, but, at the same time I feel a little bit sad that I can see a glimmer of my kids slowly growing  up. And in my mind it means college is not too far away.   It is so hard to balance enjoying their little achievements and not being bogged down with worries.  I have no idea how my late grandma did it with her 12 kids and my mom with 5 of us.  One thing is for sure, being a mom can sometimes bring out so many opposite feelings.  And they barely turned 2!
