Outstanding. Our grandkids will double this year, from the twins last
year to two more babies born to two other daughters this year. Can't
wait.

Congrats to you and yours <clink>.

Thanks EZ. So you're grandfather to twins too, huh? Certainly is a
great experience.

Right after they were delivered, the doctor showed my daughter and her
husband a little "twin trick":

1.) Babies side-by-side crying.
2.) Put heads together and they instantly stop.
3.) Move heads apart and they start crying again.

For us, yup. For the parents, well, it's more than they expected, but
they're coping way better than I would. Identical twin boys, now ain't
that a hoot!

That worked until they started punchin' each other and wakin' each other
up. Now it's separate cribs for them!

Enjoy 'em while they're small - we figure we've got maybe ten years tops
before they won't want to go to grandma's house any more!

Heh, heh. We'll see, I guess.

But you never know... it might be like the Harley ad that appeared on
TV about 10 years ago (I thought it was the best ad they'd ever
produced).

It began with 2 grandchildren, 7 or 8 year old, visiting grandma and
grandpa, out on the front porch while grandpa sat rocking in his
chair.

The one child asks, "Grandpa, what did you do when you were young?"

Grandpa replies, "Well... when I was younger, I couldn't wait until I
hit the road on my Harley; the sound of the motor, wind in my face,
hair streaming in the wind..."

"Grandpa!!!!!" both kids scream excitedly. "YOU owned a Harley???"

"Er... nah, but I always wanted to. I bought aluminum siding for the
house instead..."

Silent, the kids stare at each other for a moment. Then one says,
"Let's go inside and see what Grandma's doing." And off they go.
