For the last 14 years I have been reminded that miracles happen. I have been able to marvel at the wonders of the universe everyday. One tiny little cell decided to split for unknown reasons and create two unique but very much the same individuals.
14 years ago I got to see these amazing souls for the very first time. Two identical babies born 12 minutes apart looking so much alike that I couldn't even tell them apart. Yes, I panicked when they removed the arm bands marked A & B. And no I didn't mix them up.
To this day I still look at them in awe and wonder how I got so lucky. I look at them as individuals, and sometimes they don't seem alike at all, but there are other times that they are so much alike it is scary. Kelci will tip her head in the exact same way that Michelle does, or Michelle will say something that up until now has been Kelci's way. I have lived with them for 14 years and I still don't get the "freaky twin thing." They are connected in a way that most of us will never understand.
My girls are wonderful. They are beautiful from the inside out. They are sweet, kind, generous and nice. They are also gorgeous. Tall, thin, and blonde. Yes I'm scared. These are my babies. Boys beware. And on top of this they are fantastic athletes--something they can thank their dad for. Even at 14, they are remarkable human beings and I am so proud that I am their mom.
Being Kelci and Michelle's mom has been one marvelous adventure and twice the fun.
Happy 14th Birthday Kelci.
Happy 14th Birthday Michelle.
I love you. |
