today is Aoife's third birthday,

How did we get here? Three full years since she made Rose a big sister, after a far-too-quick birth. Our quiet, sly, odd little person, who seems to know herself quite well (neither of our young ladies lack confidence). There aren't too many photos of Aoife solo, given the girls are usually attached at the hip, as well as Rose's propensity to be a bit more performative. Rose might take up a bit more space than Aoife, but I don't know how much of Rose's shadow she'll be willing to remain in (don't let the big one distract you, basically).

We realized the other night that their natural states might be: Aoife, casual; Rose, swagger. How did we get here?
