That sounds good to me stoof!


The boy, the older twin, was born early on March 1st. Then the boat crossed the International Date Line, and the girl was born on February 28th. In a leap year, the younger twin celebrates her birthday two days before her older brother.

If it was her older twin brother, then he would've had to have been born before her
