a family tree lesson

 Today Mimi asked me if I knew Austin.  

I do not know Austin.  I asked her if he is a boy in her class.  

She said no he's a boy in the fifth grade.  

She went on to say that he is special because he is a twin.  

Ah, the specialness of a twin - I am very familiar with that!  

Then she asked me if I knew any twins.  

Well yes, Mimi, I do.  

So I showed her the following picture.

Right here, Mia, my brothers, your uncles, remember?

Oh, they do look a lot alike.

 Let me break it down a little further for you.

Leland

 Lawrence

They are 6' 4" - identical - a little hard to miss.
