My Unique Bond

(St. Louis)

Since I was little I was told that being a fraternal twin was remarkable. Not only because we were similar yet unique, but because of how close we became.

My sister and I always embraced being twins and didn't really mind it all (except for the birthdays-that can be annoying). But over the last 15 years, I have begun to realize that our bond is something truly unique and special.

We found that we are able to have a full conversation using only our eyes. Just by the looks we give each other, we can carry on a conversation for minutes upon minutes. We found this helpful when in a tight situation or when needing help from the other. I love that we are able to have a special bond that some sibling do not possess.
