My two assistants share the same birth date - 26th May.
So today, I had a taste of what's it like to be having twins. I used to think it tacky that twins go around wearing the same kinda clothes. Why on earth would parents want their kids to look exactly the same and not possess a single shred of individuality??!
Now, today I understand why parents of twins get two of everything for their adorable pair. They don't want either of them to feel that the other is being favoured more. So the parents end up doing the same thing for the both of them.
Likewise, I gave both my assistants the same type of gifts, printed cards of the same size (a blue one for the boy and a cheerful yellow for the girl) and had breakfast with them. They've been a joy to work with and if you ask me who I favoured most, I would say that I appreciate them both equally. And I really mean it, too. I'm very blessed to have them - great attitudes and all.
I remembered when I was searching for
someone to help me. MF who prayed for me back then sensed that God will give me someone amazing. He did that... and more. Instead of one, I got two amazing assistants.
Happy birthday, 'twins'
A note for trivia buffs: It's not hard to find someone that shares your same birthdate. All you need for a 50% chance of finding someone like that is to go to a room with at least 23 people. Cool, eh?
