“Two for the price of one.” That’s what the family doctor told my Dad when my mother gave birth to twins. And it was true. The GP only billed my parents his standard fee, no extra charge for baby number two. My father would joke that this was the last time he ever got a two for one discount for us.
Like many twins, my sister and I came into the world early. Unlike most twins, we were entirely unexpected (or at least one of us was). No sonograms, no ultrasounds, no way to tell one was having multiples except to hear an extra heartbeat. Which in our case went undetected. Surprise!
Being an identical twin, I have always been drawn to look-a-likes. So tonight, we offer an array of the most adorable twosomes on the planet. And we are not even charging extra for the double dose of cuteness!
But first a brief word from our sponsor along with the basic rules: This an open thread for animal lovers and anyone else who needs a smile, a lift after a hard day, or just to touch base with the community. The PWB Peeps diaries provide a respite from the news, so no pie fights from the outer blog allowed. Cats are pooties and dogs are woozles. Birdzees and other critters wild or domestic are always welcome. Post animal photos (no snakes or creepy crawlies, please, as some folks have phobias), share pet tales or tails, ask questions, discuss anything and everything, and be kind to one another. : )
P. S. Just a reminder of the new PWB Peeps guidelines: A Commmunity Lynx header is always welcome in comments here, however it is now a place limited to links not full lists. I encourage you to post links to the full Community Needs List, to Community Fundraisers for PWB Peeps, or to any DK diary that is supportive of PWB Peeps members. Links to other DK diaries or to outside sources that you believe will be of interest to pet owners and the PWB Peeps members generally are also welcome. Lists of financial needs or individual pleas for financial support are no longer allowed in the comments.
Now, on to the blog, two-by-two!
Are there multiple animals in your life? Twins? Brothers (or sisters) from another mother? This is an open thread, so discuss these weighty questions or any other darn thing you dream up. The blog is now open. : )
