Estrella faced many challenges in the months following the birth of her twins, dealing with the intense emotions and physical changes that came with new motherhood.
Post-pregnancy depression made everything seem overwhelming, especially when the twins' constant crying left her feeling like a failure.
She was often consumed by anxiety and self-doubt, exacerbated by the sleepless nights and the relentless demands of caring for two newborns.
The twins' cries seemed to be a reflection of her inadequacies, and the anxiety sometimes triggered panic attacks.
She found herself increasingly dissatisfied with her changing body, and the sight of her own reflection only added to her distress.
This internal struggle took a toll on her, but Noah and Oliver stepped in with firm, compassionate support.
They understood the gravity of her struggles and worked to alleviate her stress, reminding her that she was doing her best.
Estrella was deeply grateful for their intervention; without them, her situation would have been far more difficult.
In the following months, the twins' erratic sleep patterns continued to test her patience and resilience.
Despite feeling exhausted and occasionally overwhelmed, Estrella cherished every moment with her children.
Their needs were demanding, but each day brought new joys and discoveries.
One particularly memorable day, she was amazed to discover that Eleanor had inherited her father's siphoning ability.
As Noah was holding her, Eleanor accidentally siphoned him, surprising everyone with her unexpected gift.
As the twins reached nine months, they began crawling.
They clung to any surface they could find-whether it was the couch, the table, or even their legs-as they tried to navigate their way around the room.

One afternoon, while finishing up some work, Noah, who was babysitting, gasped with excitement.
Estrella rushed to the scene, her heart racing as she saw Eleanor walking toward her with a beaming smile.
"Oliver, quick, get the camera!" she called out.
Eleanor had managed to pull Aiden up, causing him to wobble slightly as he followed her.
Oliver, moving with vampiric speed, grabbed the camera and started recording as Eleanor and Aiden made their way to their mother, who knelt on the floor, cheering them on.
"Come on, it's okay," Estrella encouraged as the twins took their final steps, their tiny legs wobbling with excitement.
They quickly fell into her open arms, and she hugged them tightly, her eyes filled with tears of joy.
"Yay, you guys took your first steps!" Noah and Oliver joined in the cheer, making Aiden shriek with laughter while Eleanor looked on with curiosity, not entirely sure why everyone was so excited.
The twins' newfound mobility brought its own set of challenges.
Their tiny hands and feet grasped and steadied themselves, and their giggles filled the air as they ventured further with each shaky step.
One time, they unknowingly use their magic to move their toys away from Noah's reach, leading to some playful mischief.
Estrella, walking in the room, reversed the spell, causing the toys to drop, the twins looked at her with wide smiles and clapped their hands in delight.
