This year, our children - bound forever by life’s coincidence to pair their births - celebrated together, turning three and one.
Letting the two of them settle against our chests was really the only thing that did feel right.

This weekend, I found it difficult to celebrate with a full and grateful heart. "Happy" birthday just didn't feel quite right.
This year, our children - bound forever by life’s coincidence to pair their births - celebrated together, turning three and one.
The grace and the merriment pressed back to back with the sorrow and the disappointment, battling for space to settle on my chest.
Letting the two of them settle against our chests was really the only thing that did feel right.

Do all 3 of you have the same birthday? That's crazy! I'm sure it will be difficult every year...hopefully the Happy will be bigger than the sorrow at some point...
