I love Amelie and Seth more than I did yesterday because when I got home from work they were cuddled up together on an armchair watching TV, giggling together about their feet and not fighting! It makes me realise how lovely it is to have twins and how lucky they are to have each other.
We never had that dilemma about whether to put the twins in the same cot when they came home from hospital because they had been in separate incubators from birth (during the 7 weeks that they were in special care). And when we finally took them home, I remember Seth looking at Amelie sitting on my knee as if to say "that's my mummy not yours" then reaching out and grabbing my hand away from her. And although they still compete over whose turn it is to sit on our knees, they definitely seem to have a bond now beyond the normal sibling bond which is lovely for them and lovely for us!
