‘They are my blessings’: Parents welcome twins on Leap Day
(KSLA/Gray News) - A Texas couple became the parents of not one, but two babies on Leap Day.
Rayevaneisha Adams and Omarrion Brown are now parents of twins A’Novia and A’Marrion Brown. They were born at the Christus St. Michael Health Center in Texarkana.
The twins were both 5 pounds and 7 ounces, measuring 18 inches.
KSLA reported that Adams was scheduled for a C-section on Feb. 27 because the babies were breached. However, doctors decided to wait until Leap Day for delivery.
“They are my blessings. If it wasn’t meant, they would not be born on today, so I thank God for allowing me to birth them today,” said Adams.
The couple said friends and family are already asking what date the twins will celebrate their birthday.
“Honestly, I thought about celebrating February 28 and March. It’s two of them, so we can make it a double, double day celebration,” she said.
Four Leap Day babies were delivered at Christus St. Michael, according to KSLA.
