Okay, don’t come at me — I know every family has its own rhythm, and having one child or three or none is completely personal. But now that I have two, I genuinely feel that more can be better… as long as the parents are mentally and physically able to manage it.

For me, the biggest joy has been watching the bond between my girls grow. There’s something magical about the way siblings connect — the shared giggles, their little conversations, the way they look for each other even in small moments. It’s a bond that builds itself naturally, and I get a front-row seat to it every day.

Having two kids also means giving them a built-in companion. Someone to play with, fight with, learn from, copy, and grow alongside. It shapes their childhood in ways we can’t fully understand yet, but we can already see the foundations being built.

And honestly, guiding both of them through their little worlds feels like such a privilege. It’s chaotic, yes. Mentally draining sometimes. Physically exhausting a lot of the time. But also incredibly rewarding. Watching their personalities grow in different directions, watching how they react to each other, watching them form their own tiny relationship — it’s something I wouldn’t trade for anything.

One thing that really melts my heart is how excited my older daughter gets to see her little sister. Every day when she comes back from school, she literally runs past me and goes straight to her sister first. She drops her bag, throws her shoes somewhere, and just rushes to the baby with the biggest smile like she’s been waiting all day for that moment.

And yes — I stand behind them thinking, “Excuse me… your mother is also here?”
I honestly love it. This is exactly the bond I always hoped they would have. She knows I’m always there — stable, safe, a constant. But her sister? That’s her excitement, her soft spot, her little best friend in the making.

Two kids means double the noise, double the mess, double the emotional roller coaster…
But also double the love, double the laughter, and double the heartwarming moments that make all the chaos worth it.
