And those are about two of the cutest babies I have ever seen. And I don't even *like* babies! Just adorable!

4. perfection!
I fostered 5 day old "salt and pepper" twins for 3 months. an amazing experience. They would go into the fetal position and look exactly like yin/yang. These two are so beautiful. thanks

19. I do indeed
They were adopted by a bi-racial couple, and would be 15 years old now, a boy and a girl. They contrasted nearly black and almost albino. I will look for my photos and pm you.

6. And to think, most Republicans will look at that picture..
and instictively hate the twin on the left but love the twin on the right.

7. How can any of us look upon another and not KNOW we're family ..
... every bit as much and as meaningfully as these two? A stranger? That's just a loved one we haven't met yet.

36. Your words are beautiful and brought tears to my eyes, have you
read about the matching set from England that were born within the last year, little girls? They were beautiful, too.

8. That is entirely too awesome
you know when I was little I had two very peculiar thoughts for a little one

one was I believed in reincarnation because I was sure that when all the people died through out all time that heaven would just be too crowded so we kind of had to recycle - and nobody that I can think of really ever talked to me about reincarnation

and the other one

was I wished that everybody would just inter marry and have all bi-tri whatever racial kind of babies so we could stop all the fussing about races - and that was pretty strange too because I came from a mostly white environment and have no clue why this would have been and issue for my little 8 or 10 year old mind

I'm happy to report that my niece has inter married and given me three of the GREATEST bi-racial nephews in the WORLD - I'm sending her this picture immediately - this really is a hoot....

16. Now they are going to get the question that used to amuse my mom.
I'm a twin (in between diaper stage I and diaper stage II) and my mom still chuckles when she remembers people asking her...are you ready for it?

"Which one is different?"

23. I am surprised no one has posted the pics of the twin girls born
in England. They are adorable and have been on my desktop for about 6 months. So, go to Snopes.com - click on Photo Gallery - then People - then Mixed Twins.

49. OH my god. !!FAINTS!! what precious little girls. You know, I think
these kind of kids are the hope of the future. Babies and children with mixed heritage, they are the cure for the cancer of hatred and racism. Beautiful

Twin boys in Germany and twin girls in Britain. And that was in the late 70s.
