I can always find humor in Dad:
Let me paint a picture for you: It is a calm evening. Everyone has been fed and changed and burped. We are all in the babies room sitting on the floor playing. Since everyone is in harmony, Dad decides to play a game on his cell phone at the same time snacking on a bag of peanuts. I can already hear the triplets gears turning in their heads "easy prey"..... All of a sudden, the channel changes - Sammy has claimed the remote control for the cable box. "no Sammy".... (Remove remote from mouth and place in higher location). As this is happening, the TV begins to get louder and louder. Mary has claimed the remote control for the television....... "no Mary" (Remove remote control from the nimble fingers of Mary and place in a higher location).
Crumble Crumble Crumble ...."NO Sammy" - (guess who found the peanuts????)..... "NO Pia!!!!" - I think she was dialing international long distance on Dad's cell phone - which he momentarily placed down on the floor to allow both hands access to rearrange the other unruly babies. And, the best part is - It all happened at about the speed in which you read this. I think Dad even broke a sweat! I do recall a silent use of profanity commenting on the amazing speed of the trio of terror!!! Way to go TEAM!
And then - they all stopped and stared. They seemed a little freaked out... For the alien Maya walked in the room sporting something very strange on her head...... I don't know where she finds some of these things - but it amused the babies for half an hour. They were mesmerized. Excellent work Maya Papaya.

Pause for effect.....
