family togetherness

While Amy's been away, I've been able to take care of both of the kids this weekend.  It was harder than I thought it would be, but it's been worth it.  One of the most meaningful things to me is when Aidan came up to me while I was holding Kate and asked to be picked up.  I went ahead and put him on my lap in the opposite arm where Kate was.  I had both children on my lap at the same time.   Too bad I couldn't take a picture of it.  That happened twice, by the way.  I was never more proud than when I held them both at the same time.  Strange...but incredible.
