Happy with Two

The other day Lee said to me, out of the blue, "Mommy, too bad you have two kids.  It would be so much easier with just one".  She went on along these lines for a while, with me gently probing to find out what she was talking about.

I'm not sure where she heard this.  I have certainly never complained about having two kids.  Seriously, I grew up with five, seen my sister with her four boys, and fully realize I have it pretty easy.  But perhaps some stranger at a store said something that stuck with her about being busy with two little ones, or something to that effect.  

So I assured her that I loved having two children and that there was no way I wanted one less.  

Just a bit later, I put on a video for them to watch and looked over and saw them like this.  How could I only have had one, I thought?
