Last week my sister Nechama babysat for us and put the kids to sleep. The next morning , at 6am (the usual time for Eyal) I hear someone wake up. Sure enough, the boy in Eyal's pajamas and in Eyal's bed is awake. Must be Eyal. I take him downstairs and we cuddle and play a little while until the next boy wakes up. He's in Adi's pajamas and in Adi's bed. Must be Adi.
About 10 minutes after that Aliza wakes up. She hears me say something to Eyal, and immediately says "Ema, that's not Eyal, that's Adi".
I say - What do you mean? Of course that's Eyal.
No, look at him, its Adi.
So I looked, and for the life of me, I HAD NO IDEA WHO WAS WHO! By just looking at their faces I could not tell at all. The 2 boys looked exactly the same. I was freaking out. I always thought that I could tell by now, by just looking. Oh well..
After a minute or two of being shocked by myself, I looked for their features I know each of them has. Adi has a little red spot on his right cheek, Eyal has a birth mark in his right ear and they have different teeth growing in at the moment. And sure enough, Aliza was totally right!
My sister had by mistake switched their pajamas and put them in the wrong beds the night before, leading to my confusion.
At least we have Aliza to always tell us who's who!
