I am a twin. My twin sister gave birth to twins, as did my cousin, my grandmother, and great-aunt. It’s pretty evident that twins are an inherited trait in my family. It is providential, therefore, that even though I am biologically unable to pass along the family genetics, I have been able to experience the joys of being a mother to twins. It didn’t just happen by accident, though, nor even by my own calculated efforts. As only God can do, He had been preparing my husband and me to be parents, placing us in just the right place at exactly the right time, and interconnecting plenty of isolated incidents in order to miraculously deliver twins into our family.
