I am a single mother of six children. But i have 2 sets of boy girl twins. If u thunk one set is easy then you will think that 2 set are a pice of cake. Lol "not". But they are fun I can give them that. You never know from day to day what they will do. I had a box of candy that they had been gon n 2 so i took it. I left the room when i came back they were still eating candy. I left but stood at the door and my little boy stood up and gave his sister some candy. "Yes" he had it under his diaper and would give it to her when i left the room. Told u they are "Fun". What will happen next? Does it get better when they get older?

Hello kalli, well congratulations for you are joyfull at them
but i can imagine how hard it must be for you too to take care of all the six kids.I have always heard from all the mothers that kids cannot shut up they go on crying, they just cannot be handled, or they are not able to keep a track of their kids.But as i see you are really happy with your kids and that is most important and that will definetly give you more joy as they grow up.
.God bless you and your family with joys and happiness

I would love to be in your shoes, I have soon to be three children and love every minute of it. It has to be a lot of work doing it all on your own but it is so much fun being a mom. It will get easier in some ways and others its just going to get so much worse. Good luck!!

Hi there!
I give my salute to you... I have twin daughters. They are 9 years old now. Taking care of them is a handful. But taking care of two sets of twins? My!!! It blew me away just hearing that. I agree that the "fun" side is when the twins are still babies and even toddlers.
Another challenge will perhaps come in your way when these twins will grow a lot older. I mean, I've been challenged with the way on how to approach them. No matter how identical they look like, they also have separate identities. Though I only have 1 setr of rules for them to follow, approach and reprimands may differ. One style may work for one but not for the other. One twin may be more sensitive to a particular issue which the other twin do not.
And what irks me the most is when other people make comparisons between the two of them. Probably some of them do not have malicious intentions but nevertheless, all these comparisons between them are contributing to negative downside my kids may suffer if not now, then might be carried on in the future.
And all I can do is to wrap them with my blanket of love and fair and equal care.
Regards to your twins!

Two sets of twins!
What a blessing, Congratulations! Yes I know it is not easy my dear. Imagine how hard it is to cope with only one child but you, you have to take care of two sets of twins! But it still is a blessing. I mean the joy and the fun to have them around! You know we also have twins so I know how it feels to raise twins. We have an identical twin (boys) and they are so cute and so lovable. They do add sunshine to our everyday. Their every move is making us happy and people do always look and get awed whenever they see these adorable boys that look almost always fascinates them.

congratulations!! you are truly blessed. but, i cannot even imagine how you can do it - taking care of them. i remembered it was difficult enough with 1 baby or toddler at a time, what more4 or 6? wow! but, i think it will get better soon. only, in my experience we'll have different problems when they are into their teens and when they are adults and leave the house. we never stop being a parent or a mother.
