The 552 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 2: actual parenting of two at the same time is not 553 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,080 Speaker 2: that difficult. It's kind of like the invisible load and 554 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 2: just the fact that you like never have time to yourself. 555 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:52,040 Speaker 2: That's it's your own personal lifestyle. It's different, harror.
