Happy Birthday, Twins!
Posted by Gordon Smith

My two youngest children are twin boys. Fraternal. (I knew you were going to ask.) My wife and I have had six children. Our first child died when he was three months old from a rare neurological disorder called Werdnig-Hoffman Syndrome. I have written about that experience here. As I wrote there, our pediatrician advised us against having more children because Werdnig-Hoffman Syndrome is hereditary. But we felt strongly that we should have more children, and we have had them. Now, our oldest is 16 and our youngest are nine. We have a 14 year old and an 11 year old in between. Today was the birthday of my twins. Happy Birthday, Christian & Conrad!
