Changes

One thing that you can really count on with triplets is change. Before the kids I was resistant to change and had a tendency to resist it. I would be lying if I said that my wife didn't drag me kicking and screaming into the wonderful life that I have now. And I am grateful for all that my wonderful wife has done to support me and the family through the past couple of years. The kids view her as their favorite. I have been blessed to be a stay at home dad for the past few years and would never have been able to do it with out her support.

The kids are in a constant state of change. The few constants are toy choices and wubbies all other things are subject to change at a moments notice. The worst is when they decide not to like a food that they had normally loved the previous day. Or when they no longer will tolerate a simple shower and must have a bath. I know this because I am told punctuated with tears and wails.

The most difficult change at this moment for me as a parent is the introduction of new TV shows but really the commercials that book end their favorite shows. Every commercial break the kids run into the other room to tell me what new product that they can't live without. I bet is was easier in the time with out TV telling us what we need to buy to be happy. How did kids decide what to ask Santa for Christmas before the invention of rampant commercialism.
