Wish for twins comes true

I am the mother of 9 month old twin girls, Melody and Harmony.  One of my favorite times of the day is when we all wake up.  (We all share a bed.)  If the girls are kind of fussy when they wake up it all stops when they see each other.  They begin to smile and laugh.  It is such a beautiful way to wake up every morning (even if it is at 7 AM!).

One of my favorite stories is of the first ultrasound.  It was so great because the technician had started and we saw our baby and the screen switched back and forth a few times then went blank.  This is when the technician stopped to tell us and our midwife that we were having twins!  I felt truly blessed.

And then after that was the fun of telling everyone “I’m having a girl and then after that another girl!”  And the pause of them coming to understand that I meant twins.

They are so wonderful.  They are so fun to watch.  Sometimes they fight over toys and when one has it in their hands they wave it in front of their sister’s face until they try to snatch it away.  Other times they play peek-a-boo with each other and just giggle and laugh so much.  I have always been fascinated with twins and wanted to have twins and my wish came true.  Melody and Harmony are the most beautiful wonderful gifts from heaven.
