Does your momma know you're out playing cops and robbers??Originally Posted by Switchback
I am 9 and 3/4.
That's crazy!!It really rarely matters. When I turned 16, I actually had my 4th b-day, so there was a 29th that year.
...speaking of which, at 4 years old, we were on the front page of out city paper for our first b-day. How often are there identical twins born on leap year?
And almost as crazy was this story about twins I remember from when I was growing up in Chicago. On New Years Day evening they always announced the first baby born in Chicago that year. Well, the first baby born on New Years Day that year was actually the second of a set of twins, and the first was born before midnight on Dec. 31st! So, how weird would it be to be a twin with not only different birth DAYS, but different birth MONTHS and even different birth YEARS?
Which leads me to ask, are you the older or younger twin, and by how much?

Thanks, Suzanne. You're too kind.
MP, I am 25 minutes older than my brother. Basically, enough time for them to give me a bath before surprising my teen-aged mom with the "good" news. "SURPRISE! As if 1 at your age is not enough, you have another coming." LOL
FYI, we were identical enough that, as a young child, I have been to the courthouse several times to be fingerprinted, to confirm that I who I am. I have an identifying scar on my face from when I was 2 1/2. Before that, it was nearly impossible to tell us apart. Hell, up until 4th-5th grade, if I can't see the scar in a pic, the best you will get out of me is, "I THINK that one is me."
