Imitations could be Fun And TRICKY At The Same Time
I am a mother of two kinds and luckily or sadly they are identical twins. Trust me when they were born I was scared to death, considering how I might be able to raise them. But then my mother in law was quite useful during that time. She was all the time around to look after my twin baby boys. When we asked for one James, and the other one was named after his grandpa John. James and John were two nice kids until they turned 5. Their run from that time till date drives me crazy.
There may be so many apprehensions a mother would have around identical twins from the time they are born and to later dates but both of these kids have a further zing to add to my life. Knowing that they’re matching twins, they would fool around with each one and they do that well, I must admit. Both are perfect physical copies of each other, and they would ensure that they would get dress in the same way. Almost all of the time they would reply to a question in chorus and almost all of the times they’d have the same thought process also. It feels as if they have some invisible string between them with which they communicate.
I have so many memories of them which would bring smile to my face and at times a tear would tickle down my cheek. They were the most mischievous kinds. Being the matching twin like those imitation handbags which could fool any one for being real, James and John would get me into their dumb tricks. John would come for his and James would come in the room for his share of candies.
Then one of them, I’m not sure who would, shall we say James would come again asking for his share and when I say that i have already given him his candy ; he would claim that it would have been John who came in twice and had the candies. I might be totally confused, so cut the chase I’d give some more candies. And with in 15-20 minutes I would see these boys sneaking in a corner and giggling. These things are harmless and fun at the same time. It actually makes my partner and I adore our twins. Having twins is the same as imitation handbags.
Life was sailing smooth with the fun tricks of these kids, till one day I spotted that James was sitting through John mathematics exam. I was destroyed. John is bad with mathematics and can’t handle the subject while James is a total contrast. Nobody knows about this, not even their father however at my level i have given both a bit of my mind and hope that they would understand the implications of what they have done, and refrain from doing so in the future. This made me consider the cheap imitation handbags that I bought thinking that I could flaunt them as real bit obviously, like James and John I would be inviting disgrace.
