The Burkett Bundle

On the landing of our stairway is a framed copy of our Christmas photo.

Every time I bring the babies downstairs, they twist until they can see it and start waving at it.  At first, they would always reach for daddy and say "dada", but over the last week, they have both started reaching for each other, with huge smiles on their faces! 

During meals, they will often reach out and grab each other's hands.

Usually, they wake up from their naps around the same time, and I can just hear them babbling to each other. 

I see (or hear) these things, and my heart just soars.  It is such a great thing to know that my children are becoming each other's favorite people!  I think that there is a special bond that only twins share and no one else can quite understand.  I know that I'll never "get" it, but I sure do love witnessing it!
