Raising the Bar–A Tale of Two Raccoons
Maybe it’s the magnitude of deeply significant events. Could be my complete lack of mental capacity. Maybe I’m finally manifesting the negative consequences of poor choices at an earlier age. Or maybe I’m just forgetful.
The raccoons, Zander and Zella, turned four years old yesterday. Four. Years. Old! Customarily on each childs’ birthday we recount the day of their birth. The details surrounding how each child came screaming into the world. The kids love it, so much so that the stories are often repeated throughout the year.
I should be able to recount the twins’ birth with ease. A multiple birth after having been through multiple births should stand out. And yet I have great difficulty doing just that.
