the second, minute, hour, day, month.\u00a0 I think it is a word that will be my mantra for a long time.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve always wanted to have more patience..and I&#8217;m being forced to&#8230;immediately.\u00a0 One baby required a bit of patience..and two babies require a lot of it!\u00a0 For me and for them.\u00a0 Being a twin means automatically learning about patience.\u00a0 I only have two hands and can only change a diaper so quickly, nurse a baby for so long, rock a baby so slowly&#8230;until the next one cries and needs the same thing.\u00a0 I try to hold them at the same time, nurse them at the same time, comfort them at the same time..but it never seems to quite work.\u00a0 Yet, when I&#8217;m giving attention to one and the other is demanding the same attention..it is so difficult.\u00a0 I am learning patience and they are learning patience.\u00a0 But it isn&#8217;t easy and there are many bumps in the road.\u00a0 Especially when I am so sleep deprived.\u00a0 Okay, let me restate that..our whole family is learning the meaning of patience.\u00a0 It is definitely an acquired skill&#8230;&#8230;a sought after trait, a craft to be honed&#8230;and the more patience I have..the better mother I will be&#8230;&#8230;I&#8217;m learning&#8230;.I&#8217;m learning&#8230;..little by little&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a
