I think that I may be almost over this ^&%^*(& cold. Please, oh please!!!

On to the (very much appreciated) question of the day… Jenny and M3 asked if S2 and H2 are able to recognize themselves in pictures and M3 wondered if they understand that they’re twins.

They do know that they are sisters, but I don’t think that they realize that they are twins. Sometimes they seem to understand what ‘twins’ are, perhaps because DH and I tend to point out other sets of twins. They are beginning to realize that other people, like, oh, me, can’t always tell them apart, though.

And, unfortunately, they can’t accurately identify themselves in pictures. They do especially poorly on baby pictures; they each always think the photo is of themselves. (It’s actually kind of sweet.) I was really hoping that they’d be able to help me sort out some pictures we took before DH started religiously marking every set of pictures with their names. No luck. H2 informed me that all of the pictures were of here, ditto for S2. I spent a very long time after that looking for hints of their bracelets in those pictures.

More questions…?
