I love C for a lot of reasons. Here are just a few:
1. People have been asking us lately if we're twins. Not a lot of people, but a few. I ALWAYS wanted a twin, and especially after I met twins in my gymnastics class when I was five. It's even better now that she bought glasses almost exactly like mine. Her three year old son is still upset about it because he "already had a hard time mixing you two up." For the record, twins DO have double the fun, and yes, we purposely both wore white polo shirts for this picture.
2. C knows how to celebrate a birthday the right way: Peppermint Blue Bell ice cream. I love this girl! :)
3. Below is a picture of C doing just one of many things she does well: love and appreciate her children. Her son B made the tech deck (a fingerboard skateboard, like this) below. (Apparently tech decks have been around a while but a really "cool". I just want to know: These are fun, but whatever happened to playing outside? or maybe... Is this what happens when mothers are too afraid that their children will get hurt? I will confess, my other nephew has one and loves it. AND he plays outside plenty. So neither of the two previous questions apply to C.) Anyway, as you can tell, B is very proud of his creation, and C was very appreciative. K and J also gave her wonderful presents, and why wouldn't they? She's SUCH a great mom!

What a fun surprise to see this on my computer today! Emily, I am sooo happy to be your twin! You make my life so happy - I am so blessed to have you as my sister and one of my very bestest friends. Today I was telling someone at church just how amazing you are and how much I look up to you. This person has only met you from a distance, but he could also tell that you are definitely someone special.
Seriously, I did a double take when I saw those pictures of the two of you. You do look like twins (almost). I have the best sisters! Looks like you two had a great time together!
Wow! You DO look more alike than I thought...I think the fact that you're in reversed positions in both of those pictures is what tripped me up the most. Yay for sisters (especially of the Chipman variety...)!
Yea for Sisters!~ I agree. Thanks for sharing the wonderful pictures and comments about Camille's visit and your christmas time together. We are happy to know that you all can get together and send our love.
abrazos y besos,
Dad
Well, weighing in on this one... I feel totally honored to be the mother of twins. Seriously - I ALSO wanted twins. They came in two individual bundles of love - incredibly same and alike at the same time. You are sisters and friends to me. I love you! Thanks Emily. WOW - you really DO look like twins! Mom
