WHEN YOUR HAVING A BAD DAY - REMEMBER THIS.... 

There are two to wash; there are two to dry, there are two who argue, there are two who cry. One's in the mud having a ball, the other holds a crayon, another marked wall.
Some days seem endless and my patience grows thin. Why was I chosen to be a mother of twins?

The answer comes clear at the end of each day, As I tuck them in bed and to myself I say, There are two to kiss, there are two to hug, And best of all, there are two to love.

DUMB QUESTIONS

I think there are some really questions people ask twins and their parents. If the parents could have had a dollar for every time they were asked if the twins were identical, they would be rich. Here follows such several DUMB QUESTIONS. See if you agree.

Do you ever get yourselves mixed up?
Are you the same age?
Are you boy/girl twins identical?
Can your parents tell you apart?
Why isn't you dressed alike?
Do you ever switch places?
How do you know which one you are?
Do you have the same parents?
Which one is smarter?
Were you born on the same day?
How did your parents know you were Twins?

A SHORT STORY...... An unmarried woman just finding out she is pregnant gets into an unfortunate accident on her way home from the doctor’s office. She suffers a head injury and lapses into a coma for several months. When she awakens in the hospital, she panics and asks about her baby. Her doctor is called and gives her a mild sedative, then sits down to answer her questions. I’m so happy to see you recovering. he says. The young woman responds, Thank you doctor, but what about my baby? Is everything all right? He replies, Yes, despite your injury, we were able to perform a fairly normal delivery procedure. “In fact, he goes on, you’ve given birth to TWINS - a boy & a girl. The woman is very happy and asks when she can see the babies. The doctor replies, Right away, but we’ve already sent the infants home with your brother. While you were unconscious, your brother took care of everything for you. He even gave the babies names. At this point the woman gets upset, Doc, my brother is an idiot! What name did he give my little girl? The doctor answered that her name was Denise. Oh, Denise, that’s not so bad. what name did he give my little boy? The doctor answered, Denephew.
