They look the same, dress the same way, both work as physician assistants in the same clinic, and even share the same thoughts. Sometimes their own kids have trouble telling them apart. And that’s just for starters.
“Will they choose the right mom?” they captioned inquisitively. Both ladies sit side-by-side outside and await their firstborn 2-year-olds’ selections. The mothers don the same outfits and wear their long blond locks in similar dos.
Right off the bat, Ms. Buckman’s boy finds his mom but, much to her chagrin, on the second go runs to the wrong woman. They switched places on him! Mom looks shocked her son would choose another, but the mix-up soon turns to laughter.
Ms. Nowakowski’s daughter might have fluked out, for she made no such faux pas. Remarkably, Ms. Buckman’s “very smart” pet dog with its keen nose always finds its owner.
The twins tell how life has been, looking alike, living so close to each other, and working together.
“It’s been fun to do every stage of life together,” Ms. Buckman told The Epoch Times. “We’re together every single day, and we think the same, have the same interests.”
They both met their now husbands on the same day during a medical mission to Ecuador. Not only that, they both got pregnant at the same time and gave birth just three weeks apart.
It wasn’t planned. “We’re just at the same stage of life where we’re both wanting to have a kid,” Ms. Buckman said. “It’s obviously out of our control.”
Because the twins think the same way, they both wanted to help others and so became physician assistants together.
They worked in the ER for several years until deciding they wanted to become aesthetic physician assistants. The flexible hours allows them to spend more time with their new families.
Their husbands, Jake Nowakowski and Jonathan Buckman, are also best friends and play tennis together. The families are even building their dream homes in the same neighborhood, side by side. The twins are about to become neighbors.
“It’s always been something we’ve wanted to do,” Ms. Nowakowski said, adding that it seems normal to them, not to mention fun and convenient. “We actually lived in the same neighborhood before, and it just wasn’t close enough.”
With their husbands both on board with the living arrangement, the twins plan to move in this December.
“It was the greatest blessing I could have ever asked for,” Ms. Buckman said, of having a twin sister. “Not everyone gets to experience having a built-in best friend.”
