[Games] Re: Triwizard Champ's Build-A-Family Round 2
LN: Endaline

DS: Nathan Jonah
DS/DD: Jack William / Sophie GraceWill, Nate and I are doing great! Nate is three, and we love him more than we ever thought possible. He talks a lot, he is unusually articulate for a three-year-old, but Will and I think it's great- we find it amusing and very interesting to hear our son's opinions. Though he talks a lot, he is a pretty good listener, and understands that he needs to follow the rules of the house. Nate recently found out he is going to be a big brother to twins! He's as excited as Will and I. We love being Nate's mom and dad, and it seemed like the perfect time to add another member to our family- in this case, two. Originally, I wanted another child when Nate was around one, and Will wanted another one when he was six or seven. When it actually came down to it, it was good to just have Nate (as much as we love him, he was a bit of a handfull) through his babyhood, but we couldn't wait as long as Will had originally wanted, so we both decided when he was three would be great, and look what we've gotten! Our twins, who we plan to name Jack and Sophie, will arrive around early October, in eight months, and Nate will be four. We all can hardly wait!A bump in our perfect plan to stay settled came along about a month ago. I got a job deal at the office where Will used to work; they needed another pediatrician since Sarah, a former doctor, quit. The problem was that this office was in Arizona! It was almost the perfect job for me- but not for our family. I am really enjoying being a full time mom, Will likes to know that I'm with Nate, I don't think I'd be comfortable leaving the twins when they are so young, and one more thing- Arizona is just TOO HOT! I am happy that I decided to reject the job, as are Will, Nate, and my friends.Nate also recently started going to daycare. He loves interacting with the oter kids, but as we expected, he has a few issues with what and when the other kids talk (about). He always wants to be the one talking, and about what HE wants to talk about. So, we've reasoned to put extra emphasis on teaching him how to take turns, and not interrupt. We have a ways to go, but it seems he is progressing fine. Otherwise, he is doing fantastic with sharing and paying attention to the rules.
