I guess it only makes sense that when you come into the world as a twin, you see the world through twin eyes. My oldest daughter, KC, was born with webbed toes like her dad. Thankfully it is only two, and it isn't that bad (although I shed tears over them when she was little, thinking about girls and sandals, pedicures, etc). Today, 3 months shy of her 5th birthday, she noticed her webbed toes for the first time. We were painting our toe nails (since it is still sunny in SoCal even in mid Jan) and she stops and runs over to her twin. "CJ!" she exclaims "Look at these two toes! They are twins! Brudder! Look! Do you see them??!!" (Insert sigh of relief). No tears were shed. No questions of "why" were asked. Just a happy girl excited to have "twin toes." I hope this view of her toes lasts well into her teen years.
