My sister Lucy

In yesterday's gift guide, I mentioned that my twin sister Lucy teared up when she first met Toby. Here are two photos from that day, back in September. As you can tell, the love-at-first-sight was mutual. :)

    My sister isn't my twin, but my babies always recognized her when they wouldn't go to anyone else, even if we'd been apart for months. Someone once told me our heart rhythms are very similar.
    What a special moment to capture, thank you for sharing!

  37. So sweet! I love his little expression like he's holding on to her for dear life. Adorable.

  38. hey, jo! that is a really sweet moment. my father has had three children in his 2nd marriage and everytime i heard their sweet little cries for the first time, i wept.

    for the first one i was traveling and missed the day of birth but heard my newborn sister's (20 years apart from me) cries through the phone, and i started bawling my eyes out immediately (and then again once i met her!). four years later, her mother had twins, and i got to see them in person, and once again with the all-encompassing emotion and weeping.

    welcoming a baby into your life is a precious experience, for everyone involved... i'm really happy that toby was born into a beautiful loving family. congratulations!

    Just clicked on this link, reminded me of a funny story.

    One of our family friends has an identical twin sister. They live in separate continents and met up again after a few years when her daughter, M, was five.

    One night, M went to the kitchen where her Mum was cooking and then to the lounge to find her Aunt reading and completely freaked out. She thought her Mum was a witch and wouldn't stop sobbing for hours.

    I agree, for the most part, but don’t you feel as if the issue is more complex than that?
