So maybe this is because our boys spent nine months in the womb together, three months sharing a crib and then two years in a very small nursery, but...
Saturday night, while I was away, Heath decided to rearrange the boys bedroom. We had moved them out of their cribs and into a larger room a few weeks ago where I had pushed their mattresses together so they could sleep together. Heath decided that they needed their space. He put their mattresses on opposite sides of the room and put a large rocking chair and foot rest between them so they could not see each other. Chance screamed all night long on Saturday, Sunday (the night I returned from Omega), Monday and till 1 am this morning.
At 1 am, I went into their room and rearranged their furniture so their mattresses were about 1.5 feet apart. I know this sounds crazy rearranging furniture in the middle of the night, but I couldn't take it any longer. Chance immediately curled up and leaned over as far as he could towards Tasman's crib on his mattress and peacefully fell back asleep until 8 am, when Heath went in and woke them up!!!!!!
When I told this story to our friend Stacey she told me her friend had boy/girl 6 year old twins who still sleep together. She said, "dont separate the twins until they ask to be separated." GOOD ADVICE!
On a side note, our good friends are out in the Southwest exploring the desert. They called Heath to him know that they were having a great time at Gobblin Valley, Arches and a few other places. We are so happy for them! We love the US SW.
In terms of my spiritual commitment, I meditated every so far since I have been home and feel great about it! I also did yoga tonight while the boys enjoyed time with their Aunt LaLa. I plan to go back to Omega again in October to see a traveling Buddhist Monk from Sri Lanka.
