Phew

Wow, just finished the twins 3rd birthday party. My in-laws arrived first at about 9:30 to help get ready. Lots of cakes, mini-pizzas and other finger food laid out.

My brothers and sisters arrived with their children around 11am and we had a great time opening lots of presents. Everyone seems to have bought a present for our 4 year old daughter too so that she wouldn;t feel left out. It's like Christmas all over again.

About 2pm the other children arrived. These were just a few friends of our daughter from school as the twins don't really know anyone yet. The kids left around 4pm and the last of the family disappeared around 8ish.

It's been a long day but my wife seemed happier than she has for a while.

It's the twin's real birthday tomorrow and my Mum's coming down then. She's going to stay a few days to help out.

Thank God for friends and family, this depression would ruin our family unit without their help.
