The mysterious little people

I have no siblings, and my cousins have never been close to me. I have never had kids around me as an adult either, and that is not something I ever felt that I lacked. I did not understand these odd creatures and I never bothered either. I want at least one for myself and I am sure that I will turn out to be an excellent mother, loving and caring, but never a "curling parent" who is over-protective and serve their kids too eagerly.

Now I am in a quite different situation than getting one of my own. Now I have two half-grown ones that I cannot even talk to freely in a common language yet and still we are supposed to live under the same roof. I knew it would become hard, but it is even harder. I am striving to find my role and some days after the kids are asleep I am crying my guts out in pure frustration caused by my feeling of helplessness. Other times we find a channel for a moment where the communication works and we connect, and then I am filled with joy. Big challenge for Jojo, for sure! He must be something very special, that Yoram...
