Mom of black and white boys often gets asked which one of them is hers
Meet Daniel and David, two twin brothers from Nigeria who are identical but different. They both have brown eyes and come from the same family, but they have different skin and hair colors.
Daniel has black skin like his parents and older sister, while David has a lighter complexion and golden hair due to albinism, a rare genetic condition that affects one person in every 20,000.

Stacy, the mother of twin boys, was surprised when one of the babies was born with albinism. Despite having no indications from scans, doctors informed her that the twins were not identical.
Despite concerns about potential health issues for those with albinism, Stacy reported that David is perfectly healthy. The proud mother also shared her husband’s reaction upon seeing the twins for the first time.

“Their dad was really overwhelmed and immediately named My Twin 2 (David) ‘Golden,’ so he fondly calls him Mr. Golden. He was all overjoyed seeing his boys. He stood for more than 10 minutes staring at them and said he was just looking at God’s wonderful work and that they are his best gift ever,” she told Bored Panda.
Stacy says that when the family goes out, people are always interested in them and want to know more. They are always kind and never make negative comments about David’s appearance, which is unique. People are drawn to their cute and adorable nature and often approach to say hello.
“There’re always side talks whenever we go out, people often wanna know how and what’s happening and maybe due to their cute and adorable nature, you just wanna come close to say hello,” Stacy shared.
Stacy wants her sons to have a positive story to tell and decided to create an Instagram account for them. She shares pictures of her sons, which have gained a large following of over 28k on Instagram.
They have even received offers from modeling agencies in the UK. Everyone who sees their photos is enchanted by the boys and we think they have the potential to become successful models if their parents decide to pursue those offers.
Their mother says that her two boys not only look different but have different personalities as well. They will be celebrating their third birthday in February. These two boys are truly unique and beautiful in their own special way.
