Today the girls spent the whole afternoon playing their new favorite game: "Maternity Ward". They set up cots and lay down in them, holding their newborn dolls and chatting about baby care. Occasionally one gets up to be the nurse. As I'm going about the house, I pop my head in their 'hospital' room and notice they each only had one baby.

Me: "How come neither one of you has twins?"

O: "That's too much work."

G: "Yeah, and they make too many messes."

Me: "Hmmmmm."
