Twin Revelations

Yesterday we got to visit with our twin niece and nephew (oh yeah, and their parents too). B and B turned one in February, and it is amazing to watch them growing. We have never had twins in our family, so I have never had the opportunity to watch twins develop and grow. When I was growing up, I had friends who were twins, but that was different because we were all growing up at the same time. To watch twins grow up together and watch the interaction between them - even at one year old - is something everyone should have the opportunity to do. People who know twins often talk about a special bond between them, a bond that even brothers and sisters do not experience, and now I know what they mean. These two little people are as different in appearance and personality as can be, yet you can already feel the bond between them. Even at this young age, you already know that they are there for each other and they will be watching each other's backs forever. That is not to say that they won't fight and have disagreements, but no matter what, they share that special connection that only twins have for each other. It really is wonderful to see. Having the opportunity to witness the special bond between twins . . . it's a good thing!
