Why Me?

A meeting convened one day
In Heaven’s sacred hall.
The Ideal mother must be found
For twins so sweet and small.
She must be patient, first of all,
And kind and calm and wise.
And capable of chasing tears
Away from little eyes.
She'd have to put her children first
And be so very smart
Have dedication and resolve,
A sweet and loving heart.
They all agreed you were the best
No other mom would do.
Yes, Heaven found the perfect one
And sent those twins to you!

Another Successful Super Sale

By Stacy Macaulay

We had our semi-annual super sale on Saturday,
September 10th in the Ream’s Parking lot in Sandy.
Sales were down a little this time around. We only
ended up having 12 sellers.

Thank you to Kris Pexton who headed up the super
sale and all the volunteers that came out to help. We
couldn’t do it without all the support of the members of
our club. It is so wonderful to see so many moms of
twins come together to make this event happen.

If you would be interested in helping with the next sale
that we will be having in May, please let us know.
This is a great way to get involved and volunteer. We
need cashiers, bake sale help, sellers, advertisers,
and organizers. If we all do a little, we can make a
big difference.

Toy Exchange

This is a new idea from one of our newer members. The concept is to exchange clean, gently-used toys for something on the kids’ Christmas list. It’s in the planning stages now, so those interested in planning, volunteering or participating contact a board member or email info@slmot.com.

A Twin Mother’s Poem

There are two to wash, there are two to dry.
There are two who argue, there are two who cry.
One’s in the mud having a ball, one’s got a crayon marking up the wall.
Some days seem endless and my patience grows thin.
Why was I chosen as a mother of twins?
The answer comes clear at the end of each day.
As I tuck them in bed and quietly say,
“There are two to kiss and two to hug,
and best of all, there are two to love!”
