Twin Cousins



These beautiful girls were born one day apart. We call them our twins. But really, they couldn't be any more different if they tried. They are fair and dark, chalk and cheese, night and day.



Amber (in the pink) is bright and breezy, bubbly and carefree. She goes with the flow and if she is upset or down she manages to hide it and greet you with a smile. Steph (in the blue) is brooding and intense, fiercly loyal and demanding. When she is upset you know about it, if she is grumpy you will not get a smile out of her! If Steph wants something she will tell you (really tell you!), whereas Amber has more subtle (insert "sneeky"!) ways of getting her own way.This has caused more than a few conflicts as they've grown up. They have had some huge fights. They have disliked each other intensely (well more intensely on Steph's side, because she is the intense one!)


Who knows what life has in store for these beautiful young women. Whatever it is they will always have each other to fall back on. They may intensely hate each other at times, but they always forgive, and always remember they love each other, and I hope they always will.

Yes I think that photo will end up on the wall. It was only a few weeks ago, we had stopped on the way to Adelaide, and the girls were just mucking about. I love natural happy photos like this one.
