It's Twins


Falling in love for the first time is usually a big deal for the average person; they develop feelings for a significant other like they have for no other person before. Well a couple of days after January 18, 2003 I fell in love for the very first time. It was not however, like the typical first time a person falls in love because I did not fall in love with a significant other. I fell in love with my new born twin half sisters. Family is a grand community that sustains internal government, economics, culture, and education that before the birth of my sisters I seriously underestimated as well as undervalued. I have always maintained an abnormal relationship with my mother as far as most others would be concerned because of our closeness but other than her my entire life I have been as independent as possible doing all for myself that I possibly could. During my childhood I did everything from cook full course meals for multiple people and clean two different entire households a majority of the time in the same day to walk miles to pick my younger sister up from school and I did all this by the time I was in third grade. Family has always been a huge part of my life but never has it been so appreciated until my twin sisters Chantel and Chanel were born. It is unbelievable how much a young child can teach a person without even trying to. In order to put it in the simplest terms I would have to say Chantel and Chanel made my heart grow tremendously. As people age and take on disappointment and failures I believe they tend to lose the real and true meaning of love and Chantel and Chanel have taught me it once again, I shall never lose sense of real love ever again because of them. Before them there was no one that I would give my life for, my relationship with my other younger sister was horrendous, and my mother and I were not nearly as understanding of each other. My greatest role I have ever taken on in my family’s community is older sister and it is also the roke that makes me most proud.
