    Giving a child a bath isn’t particularly easy, especially not a two-year-old, especially not two two-year-olds. twins.

    You purchased bubbly soap, cute ducks, those overpriced wall thingies that suction onto the bathroom tile. And yes, it did make the bathroom look hideous. BUT, anything to distract the little ones as you wash their waves and scrub their bodies.

    One of the plus sides to twins is that they can entertain one another at times; a downside is that they also can argue. Mostly about who gets which duck or who sits where.

    Nonetheless, they needed a bath right now. And it looked pretty damn fun! What child could resist a bubbly rubber duck-filled, warm bath WITH a galaxy light on the ceiling?

    Simon (you’re very perfect, yet overly soft man who didn’t have it in him to say the word no) was currently helping undress Charlotte and Maddy as you finished running the bath.

    Both you and Simon as children would’ve been plonked in a cold bath and told to ‘deal with it’ even as children. So it was very healing to see how tender he was with them. And how understanding he always was with their big but young emotions.
