—
when you are waiting
for your family to arrive at Ikea
for the day’s adventure
and you notice
you and carol, the friendly greeter
are dressed in matching outfits
you naturally greet them together.

I’m no ‘twin’, but many get me and my younger brother mixed up (15 months apart)

Ya, I agree with Merril. I don’t think there is a place you don’t bring joy.

I have identical twin step-daughters who do look very alike. They are 36 years old now. When they were at school, it was almost impossible for non-family members to tell them apart.
Best wishes, Pete.

I’ll bet! I’ve had many sets of twins over the years in my classroom and some are incredibly challenging to tell apart and they make the most of it )

IKEA is always fun. I love the little rooms they set up. You can fit an entire apartment/house in a 12 foot square. :)

How fun! You probably made that greeter’s day. That job can get relatively slow at times. Wouldn’t it have been fun to let the greeter take a break and have you welcome your family upon their arrival? 😊
