Almost is only good in horseshoes.

This is in response to the epinions from people who claim that they "almost" have twins. Two of my children are very close in age and I went through the feelings of having two babies at one time. But the truth is--that I was comparing apples to oranges! I had a tettering toddler and an infant.
Raising twins is a very unique situation which shouldn't be compared to raising kids "close" in age. I know this because my younger sister has identical twins and a daughter who is 4 years younger than the twins. We've discussed the differences in raising the twins and her younger daughter and from listening to her I can say the experiences were completely different.
Let's leave the epinion writing on Raising Twins to the experts--the parents of twins. Let's not kid ourselves into believing we understand what it's like, because we don't.
