That's a idea!!<br /><br />@Jeff " Therefore, their mother's priest instructed her to name the twin girls Mary. Both of them." How ridiculous is that?! Sometimes, I wonder... Funny story though (and I have to ask: are you sure you only dated one?!<br /><br />@Michael "Glad you took the photo from afar Eric as we don't want you experiencing any of the effects in this definition of vertigo on our account! ;-)" Why do I have the feeling this comment is highly ironic?!<br /><br />@Sarah "You said you took it once in winter-will it be there this winter?" It will (January, but not February though).<br /><br />@Christie "(Is it just me or are your photos getting better and better these last few weeks?!" It all depends on many factors including inspiration of course and... time.<br /><br />@Drummond "Most travel guides say don't go to Paris in August, it's too hot and stuffy and everyone's gone on holiday, but you're making it sound tempting." I'd say "that is the best moment!" nice weather - well most of the time -, fewer Parisians (you KNOW it's a plus!), less traffic...<br />But lots of closed places too.<br /><br />@Flore " Something more mature" Yeah, like me ;-))<br /><br />@Anne" A much loved little baby was born in Paris today making me an international grandma!" Congratulations, then Grandma ;-) Was that a girl? Is she going to be called Mary (and on behalf of Jeff: "has she got a twin sister?!"Ludehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288299480922682837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11471590.post-72947669311870559702011-08-15T20:29:24.001+02:002011-08-15T20:29:24.001+02:00beautiful picture and beautiful day.

They were born on December 8, the feast of the Immaculate Conception. Therefore, their mother's priest instructed her to name the twin girls Mary. Both of them. Imagine the identification nightmares. Same name. Even photo i.d. didn't help: they were twins.
