🥳🥳 Happy 17th Birthday to our #BirthdayTwins!
🥳🥳 Seventeen years ago, our family received a true “2 for 1” special with the birth of our identical twins on Thanksgiving Day.
🥳🥳 They were born on a day dedicated to gratitude, and every day since, we have been thankful for the joy, happiness, adventure, laughter, faith, and love they have brought into our lives.
🥳🥳 Throughout their schooling, they have consistently proven to be national educational achievers, while their hearts and characters shine even brighter.
🥳🥳 They are empathic, compassionate, and giving souls, especially towards the elderly, those with special needs, and friends in need.
🥳🥳 We are so blessed to have them in our lives and look forward to all that God has in store for them in the future. We love you, Dynamic Duo!♥️

👩🏻💻Explaining #working and #adulting to a curious 7-year-old is not for weary. 🤯 This child is definitely not in a hurry to grow up anytime soon. 😂
