Emile and Arthur are nine months old today.
It's hard to believe, but that means that nine months ago today, my babies were born.
So here I sit now... staring at the blinking cursor on my screen, wondering what to write.
Because the truth is, there's so much I could tell you about these last nine months,
that I don't really know where to start.
And yet, at the same time, there's really not much I can tell
as I haven't really been up to much else than trying to keep up with the basic needs of two newborns.
Taking care of baby twins is without any doubt
the most difficult and the most humbling thing I've ever done.
In these past months, I have been more tired, more frustrated
and more out of my debts than I have ever been.
And yet I feel that all of this is part of the most beautiful transformation I could possibly undergo.
Becoming a mother has filled my heart with a love I have never felt before,
and not a day goes by that I'm not simply amazed
by the fact that we were lucky enough to welcome not just one,
but two perfect little creatures in our little family.

But nine months are nine months,
and so I decided it was about time to make my reappearance.
So... here I am.
I'm back.
I'm not sure how often I'll make it here, but I'm going to try my best.
So... hopefully, you're still on board!
Lots of Love,
k.

I'm so glad you're back :)
(it's hard, it is, and yet so amazing and truly wonderful)
I´m still on board - happy to "see" you again, loving the words you found for that "transformation". I only have one son, but I really understand and appreciate what you wrote.
so I´ll pay back with some words I really love about the first years: "the days are long, but the years are short." perhaps you understand! :-)
greetings,

Thank you very much cowdog!
And thank you Mo for your beautiful words.
They really mean a lot to me!
bentornata!! capisco benissimo l'impegno che i pargoli ti danno ^___^ ma sono felice di sapere che stanno bene!
ci sei mancata : )
What wonderful news to know you are back and that your little ones are happy and thriving... Nine months felt like 9 years waiting for your news!!! but now you are back and I know that there are not enough hours in the day to do everything, but just once in a while to keep us up to date would be fine.. I would rather suspect that all that home working and knitting has also had the time cut back on them.. anyway dear girl, its wonderful that you are well and happy and that your family is doing so well... Happy New Year to you all too.. janzi
I love this!!!
Congratulations!
My twins are 32 months old.
Greetings!
Happy you are back! your kids look great!
I am still here :-)
Glad you're back, and all doing well. I hope you have helpers nearby who can help you get a shower or a walk once in a while.
How nice it is to read again your words.
I know exactly what you mean 'cause it also happened to us, that two babies entered our lives at the same time. Now our twins are five years old but it still is the most demanding but at the same time beautiful thing that ever happened to us.
Congratulations!
greetings,

Great to have you back. Katrien, and to see your little boys!
your boys are gorgeous Katrien. I agree the first few months are so difficult but they are the most rewarding. Treasure these moments as they go quickly...I'm dropping off my oldest boy at uni on Monday and it is hard letting go :(
Congratulations - You and your little family looks so happy, it makes me smile :-)
Thank you all so very, very much!
It's really good to be back
and all your kind words make it doubly so!
Lots of LOVE, k.

HUGS to all your family.
