This is so true. When I started writing almost 4 years ago, I had no idea what to write about. After a lost dog came to our house one Fall day, lost from a hunter, I thought maybe this would be a good story to write about. But then, of course, I was inspired with writing about the triplets and it evolved from there (remember the ponies!). Back then, the triplets were of an age (around 6 years old) that they would have really enjoyed reading and sharing this picture book. Even though they are more into chapter books now, they love that there will soon be a picture book out there that was inspired by them and dedicated to them. They can't wait for it to be published so they can share this special book with their classmates. I can't wait either for that day, hopefully by the end of the year. </span><span style="-webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: transparent; color: black; display: inline !important; float: none; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Beverly</span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05175727131164778140noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2139275018258960662.post-74156158674549954132018-05-14T11:09:00.000-07:002018-05-14T11:09:51.031-07:00My triple summer break.....<i>My triplet ballerinas are my grand-daughters, Makenna, Jaeli Jo and Maysie.</i> I have decided to take a break from this blog until September while I try to find an illustrator for "The Triplet Ballerinas" and work on self-publishing my book (see my Facebook page: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/thetripletballerinas/">The Triplet Ballerinas</a>).

It's usually the twins (Jaeli and Maysie) against Makenna. Makenna is just so different from the other two and it's hard for them to get along. Makenna begged me for her own room again. Since she doesn't know how to keep a bathroom cleaned, I decided to give her the room with the attached small bathroom. It will be her responsibility now to keep it picked up and cleaned. It's the biggest room of the two, but Jaeli and Maysie never wanted to use that bathroom when they were all three in that bedroom because Makenna always had it so gross. Jaeli and Maysie moved to the smaller former playroom. After we switched beds around to fit the rooms, they were all set. So far it's going well.</span><br />

She has struggled with making friends and fitting in since the triplets were held back in 1st Grade at their school. My worst fear of holding them back came true for her. Thankfully, the other two are perfectly happy and can make friends just fine. The hardest part is that Jaeli was the most social of the three her first year of 1st Grade and had a great group of friends. She considered a couple of them her best friends. But, of course, the friends moved on to 2nd Grade and Jaeli had to start all over. </span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: transparent; color: #1d2129; display: inline; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">And now, 2 years later, she is in 3rd grade and still in tears over it. Tonight, she told me she doesn't feel like she can be herself when she's at school. She says she's emotional and has a temper because she can't make friends. She feels invisible. She said she tries but they just ignore her. She and Maysie are in a new program at school that is supposed to help them learn how to be more social, but she just started, so we haven't seen any improvement from it yet. I am considering asking the school to put her with Maysie next year since Makenna prefers to be on her own. I think it would give Jaeli a lot of confidence and Maysie could guide her. I just don't want it to hold Maysie back from continuing to make friends. There are so many joys of having triplets, but this is just heartbreaking... especially since Jaeli has the biggest heart of all three girls and is always the most caring. Guess we'll just have to wait till the end of the year and see how she's doing.</span><br />

Now that my manuscript is finished (see my Facebook page: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/thetripletballerinas/">The Triplet Ballerinas</a>), it is time for publishing and for self-reflection of this journey I have been on for over three years. I wonder if, without the inspiration of my triplet granddaughters, would I have written a children's book about triplet ballerinas, Annie (Makenna Anne), Julie (Jaeli) and Macie (Maysie)? Definitely not. I wonder if I had written a book about anything else, would I have stuck with it until the finished manuscript? Probably not. The joy in the eyes of the triplets anticipating when this book based on them would be finished is what encouraged me to continue when I wanted to give up. I wonder if anything now will ever be better than writing a children's book based on my own triplet granddaughters? Maybe not.

<i>My triplet ballerinas are my daughters, Makenna Anne, Jaeli Jo and Maysie Jailyn.</i><br />
<i></i>Now that the girls are in 3rd grade, more is required of them. Recently, they each had to write a report about a business in the community that they think is important. In the report, they had to tell about the business, facts about it and why it's important. They also had to provide pictures and build a model of it using at least a paper bag. We went a little further and used a shoe box. With a little help from me, we came up with 3 pretty creative business models. I even took them to each place to ask questions they could use in their reports. The models were big hits at school and used to show as an example to the other students. Makenna chose Ossian State Bank, Maysie chose Honegger Animal Clinic, and Jaeli chose Heyerley's Bakery. We had fun working on them individually and I am looking forward to seeing their grades!<br />

When your grandchildren are the same age and looking for a little attention, giving one-on-one time is almost mandatory. Especially when they get it from their parents and expect it from their grandparents too. Unless there are rules attached, it can easily get out of control though. When they were little, it didn't matter how many times they each got their own individual one-on-one time, they wanted more, more, more time with Grandma, so we decided to stop it. This summer, I started it back up thinking they would handle it better. They each stayed overnight alone once during the summer, but, again, they wanted more, so I would add time here and there during the day for some mini one-on-one time, but, again, it quickly got out of control with them clamoring for even more. I ended it once again and think I will stick to just one individual overnight one-on-one time for each of them during the summer. Hopefully, I will be able to stick to this new Grandma decree, but you never know....

<br />
<i>My triplet ballerinas are my daughters, Makenna Anne, Jaeli Jo and Maysie Jailyn.</i><br />
For the last year or so, Jaeli and Maysie have shared a bedroom and Makenna has had her own bedroom. Her room is closest to the train tracks about 3 blocks from our house. For a few months now, Makenna has been worried and scared about the train running into our house and into her bedroom. I've found her sleeping under her bed, in her closet, in the hallway and in my bedroom due to her fear. She asked if she could switch rooms with her sisters (I guess she doesn't care if it runs them over!). I told her "no" because their room is bigger than hers. We finally compromised and she has moved back into the bigger bedroom with her sisters. Her old bedroom now stores all of their toys. They also each have their own wall and closet for themselves in one room or the other. So far, they are getting along with this new arrangement. We will see though how bedtime goes every night and if they continue to get along!<br />

It's that time of year for the triplets to go back to school. They will be in 3rd Grade this year. Once again, they are in different classrooms with different teachers. After this was suggested by the school when they first started Kindergarten, it has become standard every year, through all-day Kindergarten, two years of First Grade (they were held back from Second Grade but was able to keep the same teacher both years), last year in Second Grade and this year in Third Grade. This year, for the first time, it seems that all three girls have been assigned to teachers that complement their personalities, which is a gift since that doesn't always happen. When one of the girls is assigned a teacher that they don't really connect to, she then usually struggles through the school year. For the first time, one of the triplets (Makenna) has a male teacher. It will be interesting to see how that plays out, but it should be fine since Makenna does so well in school in any situation. So, back to school bus rides, making school lunches, and homework. Another school year begins..... Beverly<br />

imagine what life will be like in just a few short years when the teenage
hormones hit. I am scared, very scared! Now, at age 9, the drama usually consists of
problems related to not sharing or who is wearing whose clothes, and most
commonly, “they won’t play what I want to play”. This is a constant struggle
and a battle I dread each day. The girls do not realize yet how lucky they are
to have two sisters their age. They have a companion and someone to play with
and talk to every day. Our identicals, Jaeli and Maysie, have much in common and their fraternal sister, Makenna, struggles daily to feel included. As they get older, I hope they find special bonds between each other and one
day realize how precious their sisterhood really is. I can see it now: boy
drama, attitude drama, friend drama, competition drama, and oh so much more I
am sure! I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. Even with as much fighting that
has been going on lately, I am still seeing how fast they are growing. So, I know I need
to take a step back and enjoy the time I have with them while they are still
young. </span><br />

When I took these two anywhere that week, there was still the inevitable multiples question of whether they were twins. So, how should you answer that or should you even answer it? You could simply nod or simply reply, "Yes, they are," because of course they are actually twins. Or, you could say, "Yes, but they are twins in triplets with their fraternal triplet who is not here right now." (What a mouthful, but I have been known to say it!) Or, the best one, "No, they are triplet sisters with their other sister." These last two usually get the biggest reaction of, "Wow, triplets," even with one triplet not there. It was a long week feeling like something (SOMEONE!) was missing. We were all happy when the triplet sisters were back together the way they were meant to be. Beverly</span><br />

<i>My triplet ballerinas are my triplet daughters, Makenna Anne, Jaeli Jo and Maysie Jailyn</i><i>.</i><br />
<br />
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">I can't believe the triplets
will be entering third grade next year! One of the biggest struggles we
have dealt with this year is making friends outside of their "triplet
circle". They each struggle in finding their own identity and connecting with
other girls, or even boys, their age. Unfortunately, their school splits the
classes up each year, so they don't usually move onto the next grade with any
friends they did make the previous year. This is really hard on them socially
because it takes them awhile to get close with someone, and then once they do,
they are taken away. Sometimes, even their sister who ends up in a class with their old friend
will become that sister's new friend. On a positive note, when one of the girls
from their class invites them to a birthday party, they almost always invite
all three. Although I would prefer only the one who is friends with them go,
this might be good as time goes on. Hopefully, they will eventually gain the confidence
to be friends with most of the girls in their class. The one thing I have
been trying to get them to appreciate is that friends will come and go, but they will always have each other. My hope for them when they are all grown up is
that they will be the best of friends and always be there for each other. </span><br />

As I said before, these triplet ballerinas have different personalities. Makenna is stubborn and curious. Jaeli is shy and quiet. Maysie is dramatic and fun-loving. It is easy to state the characteristics of these girls because it is real-life and true. It is not so easy though to make up different characteristics for your pretend triplet ballerinas and then convey these characteristics through action and dialogue. (See my Facebook page: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/thetripletballerinas/">The Triplet Ballerinas</a>). I am working on portraying one triplet ballerina as determined, one as confident and one as hopeful. This is all still a work-in-progress though, so these different characteristics of my pretend triplet ballerinas may end up changing before I am done. I hope they don't though because I like the characteristics that I have given these pretend triplet ballerinas. Beverly<br />

<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;"><i>My triplet ballerinas are my daughters, Makenna Anne, Jaeli Jo and Maysie Jailyn.</i></span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">One of the biggest struggles my triplet girls face is making friends
outside of their "sister group". During their first couple years of
school, it seemed very difficult for them to make new friends within their
class. So, when Jaeli connected with a group of friends, we were
thrilled and so excited for her. She developed a unique friendship with one of
the girls in her group that was undeniably precious. They were very close and
she talked about her every day. They would give each other hugs when they saw
each other outside of school and had the occasional play date.
Unfortunately, the decision to have the triplets repeat 1st grade was made due to
them struggling academically. This was one of the toughest decisions we
had to make. As they went through the next year, we knew it was the right
decision based on their academic improvement. However, making new friends was still
a big challenge. Two years later, they still struggle with it, and Jaeli
seems to have the hardest time. She has yet to find that one friend she feels
as close to as she did back then. Hopefully, over time, as they continue
through the grades, they will develop stronger relationships outside of their
"sister group" and become more social. We have been encouraging them
to talk with others and simply ask if they will be their friend. It seems to be
helping. But, in the long run, they will always have each other, which is
something precious in itself. </span><br />

I am sure it's probably like this with most siblings, but these triplets are all about fairness. It doesn't matter what it is, if one gets it, the other two need to get it too or you will hear about it. It doesn't matter if it is food (especially candy), toys or even new clothes, it has to be fair and equal. This can sometimes be challenging to find three of the same or similiar, especially with clothes. Lots of times though, as long as it is something new and for them, they are happy. I suppose this started when they were young and it was fun to give them each something and see their faces light up. They were never far apart then so if you gave to one of them, you had to give to all three. Even though they are not always together now, you still have to buy or give three. It's only fair.....

<br />
<i>My triplet ballerinas are my triplet grand-daughters, Makenna, Jaeli Jo and Maysie.</i><br />
In researching what I wanted my picture book story to be about, I took inspiration from where I could find it. So, one day, when one of the triplets leaped off the couch, the idea of ballet was born. I started researching ballet and ballerinas and found the book, "Ballerina: A Step-by-Step Guide to Ballet", which was very informative. I decided to have one of the triplets be the most interested in ballet and the other two girls more interested in horses to make them seem boyish. I found the book, "For Horse-Crazy Girls Only: Everything You Want to Know About Horses", which was also very informative about horses and ponies. Sadly, through editing, I had to cut out some scenes that didn't fit and the "leaping off the couch scene" was one of the first to go. But, it had served its purpose anyway by giving me the idea of ballet and ballerinas. In one of my early critiques, the horses the girls got for their birthday were called "ponies" instead of "horses". It dawned on me then that it would probably be better to have the triplets get the smaller, more manageable, ponies for their birthday than the bigger horses so the horses became ponies in the story. At one time, the ponies even had names: Jamie's (Jaeli) was "Beauty", Macie's (Maysie) was "Ella", and Annie's (Makenna) was "Snow." But, eventually, I sadly had to cut this scene too. The real-life triplets were not happy with this since they were the ones to name their counterpart's ponies. Beverly<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Update on my book: I decided to take my book in a different direction, so I cut out the ponies and have made it all about ballet. I also changed the character name of Jamie to Julie to make </b><b>her name sound more girly. It is truly about "triplet ballerinas" now. </b> <br />

Lately, I have been working on revising my manuscript (see my Facebook Page: <a href="http://httpl//www.facebook.com/thetripletballerinas/">The Triplet Ballerinas</a>). Right now, I am working on characterization of my pretend triplet ballerinas which brings to mind the characteristics that make up our own triplet ballerinas.<br />
<br />
If I were to describe the character of Makenna, I would give her the characteristics of <u>stubborness</u> (she resists greatly the idea of even attempting to say "I'm sorry" when she is in the wrong), <u>intelligence</u> (she is very smart and studious), <u>curiosity</u> (she will read a factual book from the first page to the last to find out interesting facts and recite them), <u>creativeness</u> (her drawings and ideas are so good) and <u>helpfulness</u> (whenever she sees someone in need, she will help them out without being asked).<br />
<br />
The first thing that comes to mind in describing Jaeli is <u>shyness</u>. This is something she was struggling with all the time so I gave her a diary of sorts to write in every day how she was feeling that day and to record how she made an effort to talk to at least one person. It is so great that Jaeli feels comfortable now in talking to people and doesn't need the crutch of the diary anymore. Jaeli would also be described as being <u>sweet</u> and <u>nice</u>. I would also say <u>solitary</u> and <u>quiet</u> would be words to describe her too.<br />
<br />
As for Maysie, there is no doubt that <u>dramatic</u> fits her to a tee. I would also have to add <u>emotional</u> and <u>moody</u> too. When she doesn't like something, you know all about it. But, that's not all the time, just occasionally. She is also <u>imaginative</u> (she is always coming up with great ideas) and <u>fun-loving</u> (when she's not being moody!)<u>.</u><br />
<br />
The triplets in my book will probably have some of these same characteristics, but I am sure they will all have their own individual characteristics as their counterparts do.

<div style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;"><i>My triplet ballerinas are my triplet daughters, Makenna Anne, Jaeli Jo and Maysie Jailyn.</i></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt;">
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">When I
was about 7 weeks along with my pregnancy, we learned we were having triplets. At this time, we were told they are all fraternal because they were in three separate
sacs. It didn't really matter to us, we were just happy to have three babies
and didn't think much of it after this.<br />
<br />After the triplets were born and in the NICU, we noticed right away that Jaeli
and Maysie looked exactly the same. We even had trouble telling them apart. We
only knew who was who because of the names the nurses put on their cribs. At only a few weeks
old, we took the girls back to the hospital for pictures and had to remove
Maysie's hip brace and Jaeli's heart monitor. After taking the pictures, it was
time to put everything back on. This is the only time that I was ever confused
about which one was Maysie and which one was Jaeli. Thankfully, I had previously
painted Maysie's toe nail in case this would happen. This made me start to wonder though if Maysie and Jaeli were really fraternal. I remembered hearing from another triplet mom that she had
her triplets tested with an at-home DNA test. This was very cheap and simple to do, so we decided to have it done. It was mostly so all of us would know
when they were older if they are identical or not. I also knew we would have questions from outsiders as they
grew up. </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">One day, the lab called and said they were emailing
me the results but wanted to let me know that the test showed a 99% match for Jaeli
and Maysie being identical twins. I was very excited and happy we took the test but was a bit frustrated with the doctors for telling us they are
fraternal and not even suggesting the possibility that they are identical.
</span></div>
<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">As Jaeli and Maysie have gotten older, it is easier now to tell them apart. They may be identical but they are also different in many ways. Like their triplet sister, Makenna, they both have their own individual personality that makes them their own person. </span><br />

Recently, I decided to make a big change in the children's picture book I am writing (see my Facebook Page: <a href="http://www.facebook.com/thetripletballerinas/">The Triplet Ballerinas</a>). My story has mostly been about just one of these triplet ballerinas. The reason for this was everything I read about writing a picture book said there should only be <u>one</u> main character. In the beginning, I decided Annie would be the main character out of the three girls, Jamie, Annie and Macie. Later, I switched the main character to Macie since she seemed to suit my story better. But, recently, I received a critique of my manuscript that encouraged me to write my story about all three triplet ballerinas since "rules are meant to be broken when you have a great idea." So, I am excited to begin my journey writing about three triplet ballerinas, not just one.

Is there any greater love than a grandmother for her grandchildren? Well, yes, the love of a mother for her children, but a grandmother's love is special too as is the love she receives in return. When I was first blessed with grandchildren (and three at once!), I thought it couldn't get better than that. But, with hugs and kisses and "I love you, Grandma" times three, the feelings are indescribable. Of course, some days, one or two will love you more than the other. And, I know, at times, like with all children or grandchildren, that love is tested, but it never goes away. So, in this month of LOVE, I will cherish any "I love you, Grandma" and hugs and kisses that are given as each one is very precious to me. Beverly <br />

As with all siblings, the triplets are prone to fighting with each other. Surprisingly, it is usually one-on-one instead of two against one. And, it is usually, but not always, Jaeli and Maysie who are arguing or fighting. Makenna tends to be the peacemaker. If they are fighting over a toy, headband, food or whatever, Makenna will usually run and find a substitute to whatever they were fighting over so that they both have something similar. Of course, sometimes Makenna finds herself in the middle of a fight and there is no one to save her since her sisters aren't as accommodating to her.Then, she just has to save herself. Most times, their squabbles are easily resolved by one solution or another and the three of them go back to being sisters and best friends. It is never boring being around the triplets, that is for sure. Beverly<br />

<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;"><i></i>As triplets, the </span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt; margin: 0px;">girls sometimes struggle finding their own identity. Many times, they are
referred to as “the triplets” or even my identical twins within the set as
“the twins” (<i>more on "the twins" in my guest blog of next month</i>). I, too, often do this and I need to be more considerate and refer to
them as individuals. With all three in the same grade (but not classroom) at school, they “share” friends, and even
a few cousins, close in age. Lately, Jaeli has been struggling to feel “seen”. At
times, she has come to me with tears in her eyes and has said she feels invisible.
She feels as though Makenna and Maysie get more
attention and others want to be their friend, but not hers. This makes me very
sad. Jaeli has the biggest heart of the three girls and, although she has a temper
on her, she is the most loving and also the most shy. Jaeli and I have sat
down and discussed ways we can make her feel more included and “seen”. Together, we decided a sleepover at her cousins by herself would be a great
start. We will continue to find ways to help her discover who she is and how she can open
herself up to make new friends outside of her sisters. </span></div>

Of the triplets, Jaeli is probably the most like me. A few years ago, I noticed Jaeli and I had almost identical birthmarks. We have an obvious almost diamond-shaped one on our right arms by our shoulders and there is a small round one on one of our fingers. Jaeli is also shy like I am and struggles with it daily as I do sometimes. We both share a love of reading. She even read the whole book of "Green Eggs and Ham" when she was in First Grade. She also told me the other day (while she was reading a book) that she is always going to want to read a book just like me (while I was reading my Kindle) and commented on how alike we are. I also see bits of myself in Maysie, her "twin triplet", (more on that next month). While Jaeli is right-handed, Maysie is left-handed like me. They both, though, have my deformed little toes! Sad to say, I haven't found much of me in Makenna, but I will keep looking. I am so blessed to see myself in my grandchildren. It is an amazing thing. Beverly <br />

The triplets were born on July 2nd, 2008, so when the Fourth of July comes around each year, we know it is about time for another birthday and a big birthday party. Before the triplets started school, it was mostly just family at the birthday parties. But now, there are three times the number of friends so, of course, there needs to be a big party with the friends each year. In 2013, Rapunzel came to visit. In 2014, they had a pool party. In 2015, it was a Princess birthday party after a trip to Disney World. Last year, they had an American Girl Tea Party with all their friends and dolls. No plans have been made yet for this year when the triplets turn 9, but I am sure it will be just as great. I can't believe this year's birthday will only be a year away from the triplets turning 10. It seems like just yesterday the triplets were babies and one year old. Now, they are young ladies and almost 9 years old. My, how time has flown.

The first Christmas we had the triplets (2008) we had lots of fun posing the babies in giant stockings, different Christmas outfits and different poses. Those poor babies probably wondered what was going on but they were good babies and cooperated for us. It was a new and wondrous time for all of us but is now a distant memory. Where has the time gone? Eight Christmases later, there are no more giant stockings, no more matching outfits and the only posing done is if the girls decide they will. But, every Christmas is a time for us to marvel at the miracles that were brought into our lives so many Christmases ago.
