• How are matured non-identical twins Lucy and Maria

When newborns Lucy and Mary brought her mother, so she looked at her daughters for the first time, my mother for some time I have been so severely impaired that even forgot how to drive. She knew that she would have twins, but twins are completely on each other not like she did not even guess. Now, 20 years later, this difference became even more apparent.

The mere fact that unlike the birth of twins is not so strange to shock my mother. But the fact that one daughter was blue-eyed and bright red hair white girl, and the other brown-eyed and dark-skinned, of course, this is just surprised both parents. Yes, of course, to blame genes: mum Donna is half dark-skinned, because she came from Jamaica and my father Vince - completely white. However, by the time the couple already had three children, all of whom were mulattoes.

Lucy and Mary Elmer (Lucy, Maria Aylmer) were born in January 1997. As said one of the twins Lucy, "for the mothers it was such a shock, because the ultrasound does not show details such as the color of the skin. It even imagine could not, that we will be so different. So, who when the midwife had brought our mother, my mother just lost speechless. "

"Our brothers and sisters (George Chinn and Jordan) have a mixed skin type. We would like Marie is an extreme colors in the spectrum, where the rest are just between us." Lucy bright blue eyes and very pale skin and bright red straight hair. While her dark-skinned twin sister Mary's dark eyes and black curly hair. "My grandmother was a redhead like me," - says the grown-up Lucy. "No one believes that we are twins Which is not surprising. Even if we get dressed in the same dress, we still will not be similar to each other is not something that, as twins, even as sisters Our friends even once asked to bring evidence.. birth, because they did not believe us. "

Lucy says: "Maria and I were in the same class, but of course we did not have the typical twin problems we have all distinguished, but it means that we could not with Mary to change sewed documents, as is often done. twins, so that this situation, there are pluses and minuses. "

"Many brothers and sisters look very similar to each other, and we are twins and looks is not something that is not family, it seems as if we have all the different parents." Lucy and Mary and the nature of different, and in their interests. Lucy is now studying art and design, while Mary decided to devote himself to the study of law. Mary has always been more sociable and cheerful, while the red-haired Lucy often shy to meet new people and go to parties. Maria loves elegant dress on a figure, while Lucy likes to walk in sneakers, T-shirts and jeans.

As a child, my mother dressed girls equally, but somewhere to ten years Lucy and Mary suddenly realized that they were so different that pretend they are identical twins do not have any sense. Since then, the girls have developed in their own way, regardless, even though they were each other's best friends and still love each other. "Mary loves to tell your friends in college, she had a white twin sister. And I'm also proud of my dark-skinned sister."
