Reactions
The comfort Joy received from her mother was invaluable to her. Taking Amanda and Emily into her arms, she cooed at them and kissed them. It was her mother’s love and acceptance of her daughter that helped Joy come to terms with her daughter’s appearance and bond with her.
There were friends and family members present when Amanda and Emily were brought into the nursery. The twins astonished them, and they could not believe what they were seeing. The reaction of some people was shock, while the reaction of others was fascination. Joy was overwhelmed by their reactions and had no idea what to do.
