I want to be careful not to put my children into boxes in regards to their personalities, but they are definitely predictable in terms of the roles they take on within the family.
The Man with a Plan, R, is a take charge guy. He would much rather pull than push...and would never be the one riding. His birth certificate says 2.5, but he acts like he's 40. (You know, a 40 year old that pitches fits...)
Queen K "I ride. You push me, R!" She is sweet as pie, but KNOWS she is special because she's the little lady. She's the one in the middle with the bow. Need I say more?
& I'm-Just-Happy-to-be-Here-Bringing-Up-the-Rear, P He's always either off totally doing his own thing or giggling as he copies the other two--never the ring leader. It is not a matter of being unable to keep up, he just does not have the need to lead.He is technically the baby, (do 3 minutes REALLY count?) and plays the role of the youngest child VERY well. As he was running behind them he cried, "Wait for MEEEEE..."

I find it interesting how children who come from the same parents can have such totally different personalities. I witness it in my three all the time. One might say it's the birth order thing as mine are years apart, but in your case that doesn't so much apply. Amazing creations we people are. God is so very creative.
How awesome! I loved reading about their different personalities. I'm already anxious for us to someday have another to compare personalities too...but what a neat little blessing to have them all at once and compare them....
Oh my goodness, they are just so sweet! I don't know how you do it with three all the same age : )
