Juli's Right

So I have a friend, Juli, who is a fellow twin mama.  When it comes to understanding what it's like loving two babies, caring for two babies and feeling torn between working to provide for them and leaving them in the care of someone else... 

She gets it. 

Example?
Today she called just to tell me that she had gone through the stages of "Pregnancy Acceptance" for my recent pregnancy with me. First, disbelief. Then fear. Then acceptance. And finally excitement.  I think she's ahead of me, as "excitement" has yet to take hold. I am working more on acceptance right now. Well, that and I am sending up LOADS of prayers for a singleton this time. Which, she also gets.

In her message she said, "And I bet a ton of people are saying cute things about how it'll probably be twins again. Well, they're just stupid!" 

OMG.

Juli, I love you.

You are so right.
