My nephews are identical twins, and they are both married-one has a baby and the baby girl loves her Uncle, and goes to him without crying and seems so content. She knows he isn'ther father, but she senses something......I love reading about twins, I have always been fascinated with multiple births...

we are still very best friends and so are our children .

 

this is sure interesting , twins marrying twins, and boys  that are actual cousins and brothers , wow !

 


@Kitty Galore   So you were like triplets in a way!  How cool!  We also have twins in the family & they are also referred to as "the twins" most of the time.  I had to laugh at your last sentence....for soap opera fans "boys that are actual cousins & brothers" are pretty common in their storylines.  Woman Happy


@SloopJohnB  so true. I know two boys that are brothers and cousins but in this case the two sisters had a child with the same guy. The sisters didn't know they were seeing the same guy.

I do not know them, but there is a case in our rural area where three brothers married three sisters.  They didn't get to town much, I guess.
