Country singer Chely Wright and wife Lauren Blitzer Wright welcomed two new additions to their family on Saturday, May 18 in the form of identical twin boys. Forty-two year old Wright told People, “We are grateful for all the amazing medical care and the love and support of family and friends.”
What are some ways to make sure your identical twins are individuals?
Cupid’s Advice:
Just because your twin’s faces are identical doesn’t mean their personalities are. Cupid has some advice on how to make sure your identical twins are individuals:
1. Dress them differently: People often fall into dressing their identical twins, well, identically but this almost guarantees that your children will not feel like themselves. As soon as they’re old enough let them pick out their own clothing so they don’t end up feeling like two halves of one whole.
2. Different haircuts: It’s hard for outsiders to tell identical twins apart. Giving them different haircuts will give people a distinct difference to focus on when distinguishing one from another.
3. One-On-One-Time: Reserve special time in your week to spend with each twin individually. This time will be beneficial when it comes to bonding and it will also help you get the know each child as their own person.
