Number 3

WONDERFUL

Kate: Babe, don't you think it would be wonderful to have 3 kids?
Len (trying to reach someone on the phone): But isn't it wonderful right now with 2 beautiful girls?
Kate: Oh, yes it is, but it could be a bit more wonderful with one more, don't you think?
Len (hanging up the phone): I forgot whom I was calling.


WITCHING HOURS

...or rather minutes are spent by Maya almost every evening on crying. Right after the last evening feeding and right before falling asleep, she cries her little heart out.

Every now and then, out of exhaustion Klaudia joins with her crying which changes the next 10-15 minutes of Len and my life into a little chaos. Usually I take care of the little one while Len tries to calm K down. Every time it happens, I get a bit stressed (but what mother wouldn't?). That's when Len very calmly looks straight into my eyes and says: "And, you wanted 3 kids."


GOOD NEWS

Kate: Baby, I've got some good news!
Len: Oh, that's always good. What is it?
Kate: I spoke with a friend of mine who has 3 kids, and I asked her what it was like having 3 kids, and she said it was easier with 3 than with 2!!!
Len: And, that's your good news?

Well, by the time #3 comes along, K will be able to help out more. Law of marginal returns! Or, was that diminishing returns? ;-)
