My D.H works with this guy whom is approx. in his late 20's early 30's. And he is a twin himself, he was telling my D.H that when he was in pre-primary approx 6yrs old he and his brother where in a running race, he was winning by a great length, he stopped just before the finish line waited for his brother, they then held hands and finished the race together. This did make them come last thou *LOL*

I thought that this was such a cute story and shows you how much of a bond there is between twins.

Do any of you have any warm & fuzzy stories about your twins helping each other out? I'd love to hear them..

Hey Jen, that is a gorgeous story.

Joe often decides to help Scarlett out by opening the baby gate..and holding it open for her! I spend all day running back and forwards trying to keep them on the right side of the gate.

They are also very good at sharing food, when I pour water for them or give them biscuits the one nearest me will always take the first biscuit or cup to the other twin. They always say "tankoo" to each other as well original.gif

what a fantastic story!

my boys are always concerned that when they are given something that the other gets it as well - especially when it comes to food (read: lollies hehehe)

Jackson actually gets frantic if we are going somewhere & Riley is lagging behind - he'll grab his arm & pull him along til he catches up. Riley like to try and help Jackson get dressed or put his shoes on.
it's funny actually, because when they aren't trying to help one another they are doing the opposite - competing against eachother!! go figure LOL !!

DH is a twin, his brother is Ian. Apparently when they were just learning to talk, DH would say "I ear (Ian)" and Ian would be "No, *I* ear" and get all upset about it. It's never changed ... DH riles Ian up, and Ian still reacts. Michael likes tricking people by pretending to be Ian, and Ian dislikes the mere concept. That said, they are the best of friends too and even though it's about a half-hour drive between our places they try to see each other every week.
