I'm a twin. I and my twin brother are the first born of my family, I said both of us because neither of us has for once claimed to be the first born since we were both gave birth to on the same day and it's just a different in minutes.
Sometimes our relatives or friends pulls out controversial argument on who the first born is among the two of us. but what I have heard is that in Yoruba culture which is my culture, the second born is the first born of the twin. The reason is that the older is more important, so the younger one preceded him to prepare the way. Or, as some say, the older one is higher/deeper in the womb so has been there longer. Either way, first one born is younger and second born is older. but according to Stanford Medicine News Center the birth order is straightforward to tell which will be called the first born. Me and my brother seems not to be concerned about that or argue or over that we're both cool with anyone you choose to call us. we choose not to even discuss it among ourselves.
Every family have its uniqueness, my family is awesome. I have two brothers, a sister and my parents. I love everyone in my family. My family is my world and they'll always be part of me.
WHERE MY FAMILY LIVES
We all live peacefully together in same place, we live in Ibadan South-West which is a Local Government Area in Oyo State, Nigeria.
OCCUPATION
My Father is a Tailor and a fashion designer, A tailor is a person who makes or alters garments or fabrics, while a fashion designer is a person who creates and designs new clothing patterns and styles. He has a unique sense of style, he understands fashion and he has proper fabric knowledge, he has good sense of color as well, he's very good at what he does and he is creative. More than being a father to me, my Dad is the most skillful tailor I have ever seen.
My mother is also a Tailor I guess one of the factors that connect them together. She is also creative, super fabulous and skillful.
My twin brother Taiwo, interestingly he is a Tailor friends and colleagues used to say that he took after my dad, he's young skillful and talented tailor. He found tailoring as his passion and his dream career.
My Sister
Her name is Anuoluwapo, it is a Yoruba name that means Mercy of God, she just graduated from Senior secondary school and she did really great in her final exam. She is a caterer by occupation, decorator, event planner, and ties gèlè(An attire scarf). She is skillful and very good at what she does.
My brother
His name his Emmanuel the last born of the house. he's still in primary school. I asked him what he would want to be in the future, he said he would want to be a navy officer. He's still very young and I know he is working in the path of greatness.
My Father has some qualities like loving, caring, he treats all the family member equal. His unique quality is that he handles situation differently and also loves giving advice. I remember vividly that he rarely beat his children for doing bad things instead he will call you to stand in front of him and he will start to interrogate you, first thing he would ask you is, Tell me kid what you have done is it good or bad?. Of course you wouldn't say NO. He will then tell you stories of how he was punished when he did similar thing when he was young, and those were really hard punishment.He would I won't beat you because I don't want you to suffer like I did. Then he will begin to tell you how every decision or action we make will determine the result of our success in life. All this interrogation can go up to two - four hours while standing. You must not sit I used to prefer my mother to beat me for doing wrong thing than to stand in front of my dad interrogating me on what I have done. But as I begin to mature and grow I realised that he was not really punishing me for standing in front him for hours but to value his words and those advice are really priceless and I can't get it from elsewhere. This unique quality of how my father handles situation in a different way makes me love him so much.
My mother is caring and a loving mother. I spend most of my hours with her. Most of the support I get is from my mother. Her qualities is something I can't describe all, She may gets angered easily but she forgives and forget easily. She is selfishness and she sacrifice all just for her children to be okay. I love everything about her. My greatest desire is to make her happy and comfortable all the time.
My twin brother is a calm guy I love his hardworking ability, he never procrastinate his duties. He's the tallest and strongest guy in the family.
My Sister is a fragile type, I really like her because she's brilliant and loves to study. she's the type that loves to surprise every member during their birthday celebration. She's caring and loving.
Emmanuel the last born of the house very playful but I love the fact him he's very free with anyone. He always tries to make himself happy

I really love my family and we have shared great moments together. My family is my world

Hello, Kenny. You have got a wonderful and loving family.
Yes, Yoruba believe Kehinde is the elder between Twins. But the truth is, the first born, Taiwo is the elder. I'm not saying that because I'm Taiwo o😆😆.... You know, but Taiwo is still the elder.. Lols. You guys are handsome.
I like the qualities you family members possess. Take care of your young brother and sister, Idowu.
Kind regards!
