Double Trouble

I married into a family with many sets of twins.  My hubby's uncle has 2 sets of twins (out of his 10 kids).
Two of thos kids have twins of their own.  His great grandmother was a twin.  And his family history is full of double trouble, including a set of twins named Homer and Omer.  Yes, I am serious about the names.
In my family history, we have found one set of twins, and they were brought in by marriage. 
So ten years ago when we found out we were having twins, I cried for two days. 
I was completely shocked!  and excited!  and terrified!
But since then, I have learned to appreciate the unique challenges of raising two kids at once.
I have certainly learned to appreciate the humor that comes with twin pops.
My mom just sent me this picture.
HOW TWINS ARE REALLY MADE


So today I will be grateful for the adventure of having two kids at once!
