Having one set of twins in your home is challenging but what about three sets?! This is Mikalange and Mika. When their mother, Madamn Mercilia, died, their father, St. Cappe, could not care for them. I can totally understand this. A poor father cannot afford to feed the rest of his children, let alone a baby or babies who require special milk and diapers.
If a father is struggling to stay alive, there is no possibility to be able to feed twin babies. And, it is difficult to find a “nursing mother” when the mothers are not in good health, even to take care of their own children. These two children came from some of the highest mountains in Haiti!
The “ornery one,” Mikalange, is on the left. She loves school and church and she loves to “aggravate her sisters!” She hopes to become a dentist one day.
Mika is the quieter one on the right, and she loves working in the kitchen. (Next to food!) Both children are in 8th grade, but Mika is passionate about school. She loves math and does well in it! She is not a “sports girl.” You will usually find her in a room, studying.
We love all three sets of twins. God made them different in each way!!!
