We have a house full of boys — three of them, to be exact. Before the twins came along, our eldest had enjoyed four years of undivided attention being a pampered, only child. He was the center of my world, my little shadow. When the twins arrived, he was genuinely excited to meet his new siblings. He even joked, "It's great we got two babies. One can bowl and the other can field while I bat!" But behind the smile, I sensed a quiet worry in his eyes, and one of our biggest concerns became how he would adjust to sharing us with two newborns. The shift in family dynamics was undoubtedly going to be a challenge, and we knew we had to be attentive, not just to the babies, but, just as importantly, to his emotions.
