The only thing that a parent can count on is change. Constant change. Why is it that one day a kid will love something and the next hate it? It makes it very difficult to please such a capricious thing much less three of them. Cooper has never met a meal he doesn't like while the other two are always wanting something other than what they were given.
Having triplets make you a new parent and an old parent at the same time. There are the normal new parent things like being over protective and worrying about every little thing from what's going in to what's coming out. Then the old parent thing of "they will be fine." And letting them have freedom and the ability to be self sufficient. It's not that you as a parent don't want to do and help out with everything but simply stated you can not be in three places at once.
The trips are at once the most wonderful thing and the most annoying thing all at once. The truth is you just never know what is going to happen next, be it injury, illness, or absolute joy.
