Telepathic Four Year Old Twins

I am a mother of identical twin boys. Gabriel and Ethan just turned 5 this year and are in kindergarten. My twin story happened when they were 4.

My mother wanted to spend some time with them, but she was never able to handle both of them at the same time. We decided to let Gabriel go for a visit for 3 days and then Ethan would go for 3 days. Ethan and I were driving in the car on our way to make the switch; he was sitting in his car seat as quiet as can be just looking out the window, when he tells me “Mom, tell Gabriel to get his clothes on.”

I looked at him and told him Gabriel was with grandma and he wasn’t here. He told me “Just tell him mom. He needs to get his clothes on.”

So I called my mom out of curiosity and asked her if she was having a hard time getting Gabriel dressed, and she said yes, they were having an argument because Gabriel didn’t want to get dressed because it was too cold and he wanted to stay in his jammies. I was so amazed. You hear about these stories where twins are so connected even when they are miles and miles apart, but when you witness it for yourself it is just mind blowing.

I am sure I will have more stories to tell as they get older. It just makes me realize how blessed I am to be a mother of twins.
