The Twin Valley Mother of Twins Club got started when four mothers, all with twins, decided we needed moral support...physically and mentally. We now have 26 mothers and belong to the National Organization of Mothers and Twins Club. More important we wanted our twins to know that they weren't different from other children, that they were individuals even though they were twins. Today is our annual Easter egg hunt. Tri-Valley Area, California, 1969–1975. Bill Owens (American, b. 1938). Vintage gelatin silver print; image: 15.5 x 21.4 cm (6 1/8 x 8 7/16 in.); paper: 20.1 x 25.2 cm (7 15/16 x 9 15/16 in.).
