Twins Born Minutes Apart But in Separate Years

A pair of twins in North Carolina may share the same parents, but they don’t share the same birthday.

Little Ashton Parker and Alisha Rae Alston were born two minutes apart on Friday night but in different years. Ashton Parker was born at 11:58 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 31, 2010. His little twin sister, Alisha Rae, came two minutes later, exactly at the stroke of midnight — January 1, 2011.

    So cute… I have an identical twin… We’re only three minutes apart but worlds away; as different as night and day.

      I have a fraternal twin brother. We were born 2 hours apart. Also as different as night and day. Don’t even look like brother and sister. Still, people used to ask us, “Are you identical?” My brother, ever the comedian, used to call us “Womb mates”.

      I have a fraternal twin brother, born 2 HOURS apart. Still on the same day though. We’re also as different as night and day, personality wise as well as physical appearance. But people would still as us, “Are you identical?” LOL. Ah, no. He has a penis, I don’t.
