A planned trip to the store had evaded me all day and as dinnertime loomed I panicked. Several weeks ago the twins were playing tag team with their naps and feedings. Basically with four kids you are never going to go grocery shopping alone again. Seriously, no – let me go to the post office.

It’s like a mini spa day for me if I can get a coffee to sip as I stroll through the aisles at a leisurely pace (yes my definition of things that are like a mini spa day has evolved quite a bit over the last few years. Shopping for groceries is lovely if I can do it alone. Also, you can’t fit two carseat carriers in the cart and have room leftover inside for the actual groceries, so then one has to go in the Ergo, etc, etc. Any time that all four must accompany me to the store, it is not my ideal situation as it makes for a lot of moving parts (mostly my toddler). When I found out I was having twins last March one of my go-to lines to tell my dental patients was, “Yeah…you know when you see a mom with four kids…in the grocery store…with two shopping carts…and you feel a little sorry for her? So that’s going to be me!” I say that with plenty of humor because my children mean the world to me.
