I thought having twins would be easy......
I have two arms, I will hold them at the same time. I will nurse at the same time. They will sleep at the same time and eat at the same time. I will sing them the same songs and read them books at the same time. They will both like the same foods and playing the same games. And when they are old enough they will always LOVE having each other to play with. I will use the same techniques on both of them to soothe them, teach them, and discipline them. It might just be a little more work doing double of everything. RIGHT?
Heavenly Father is humbling me by sending me two children at the same time who could not be more different.
I wouldn't have it any other way.

What a great post! I don't have twins--but it is amazing how different our kids can be. Your boys' differences were hysterical! They are total opposites, huh? But, like you said--you wouldn't have it any other way. I love that picture of the boys--so cute!
Also--uh, yeah...send a picture of your room with the wall and door. I'm very interested to see how it would look with a white door! Thanks!
That is so cute, they make a perfect pair!
that's amazing! you'd think they would be extemely similiar having lived side-by-side in such close quarters before making an appearance here!!!!
I think you've forgotten - you were terrified! I remember. I told you God would bless you with what you needed and you said, "I hope so!" You were excited but very worried it would be difficult.
My twin brothers are exactly the same way! Complete and total opposites! So fun!
those differences will be such a blessing to them in their lives, they will help each other out, strengthen and probably envy one another. I love your wisdom and insight.
I don't think any mother could have said it better!!
Mine aren't twins, but they sure are individuals.
This is so cute!
They are soooo cute...and that picture!!!! Kids are totally a blessing!!!
