April Fools!

Today is the last day of school before spring break.  Anna and Leah really wanted to play a trick on all their friends and teachers.  I thought it would be ok to participate in some mischievousness a little early.  The joke: go to school and pretend to be each other.  Of course, that is something you can only do as a twin, so you gotta take advantage!  I was a little worried everyone would catch on because they look  SO different to me!  Their voices, the way they walk, talk and smile.  I figured everyone would catch on fast and the joke would be over.  To my surprise, they lasted two hours!  I happened to be dropping Raychel off at school during the morning recess, so I wanted to pop in and see how they were doing.  I got to see Anna's reading teacher's reaction to the reveal.  It was so much fun because she was genuinely fooled!  She said, "It's so funny because I said to her, 'you look a lot like Leah today.'"  Leah held it together!  By high school they will be pros!  This morning as we were getting ready I told them they had to pretend like they were in a play and "stay in character".  Anna says, "I need to be super cute and twirly today."  Leah knew she needed to act a little more "shy".  How special to have a twin sister!    

They needed to match from head to toe.  I love how they are just holding hands like "no big deal".
