I feel for you, my sister's twins were born when her oldest was just 18 months old. She somehow mananged it, although it was hard at times. She just tried to include her as much as possible, and let her help when she wanted to.
My oldest was 7 when I had my twins, but she started ACTING like a 2 yr. old. I just had to make sure everyone else was making time for her because I couldn't spend as much time as I had before. I would see if someone could watch the twins so you could take him out to the park or McDonalds or even just take a ride, to just give him some "me" time. Trust me, I know this is easier said than done with twins, but that is what I had to do, just take time every once in a while for just her.
My sisters twins are now 10 and her oldest 12, and they are all fine....and my sister is still SANE, so it can be done. LOL
Good luck to you and God Bless you.-------------------- Melissa

Don't worry.....you will most likely have the same amount of hair when they are 5........lol. I have 5 children( 15,14,12,and the twins are almost 2 ....BGBGG). My oldest were very close in age , simmilar to the situation with my twins. You know, all mothers have trouble here and there with raising one child let alone 2 or more. We all have those days where we think we will never make it to 5 p.m. and most certainly will be deceased by bedtime. But the thing to remember is that they will grow up, they will be potty trained, they will go out into the world as fine young adults some day .........and the lil pleasures we experience every day when they smile at the dog....and the dog is cluless, when they hold hands.... when they say "I love you Mommy" will forever be in our hearts. So.....instead of thinking with the mindset : How can I do this?!?!.......think instead: "What will they do next?!?!.......and cherish the moments ,......bask in the pleasures of raising your children. Most of ALL.......Remember there is a reason for everything......and we should strive to waken our curiousity and enjoy what we have in our presence: Beautiful Little People Who LOVE Us
