More About Twins

(Okay, so...I decided to update this with some better pictures, because it's such a great article.)

National Geographic printed a cover story here about Twins in their January 2012 issue. It's an interesting read all about the latest theories and discoveries related to epigenetics, a term used to describe the expression of our genes as coded by our DNA. Identical twins are a prime research ground to explore this new scientific ground and the findings could dramatically effect the health of everyone...including us "non-twins". 

Here are photos of identical twin sisters:




















































I found them so beautiful and intriguing.

Look at this photo of twin brothers who married twin sisters: 


The two kids in the picture are actually cousins, but they look like they could be twins, too! These people actually all live together in the same house in Moscow, Idaho.
