These pretty twins from Quincy, Illinois, won the hearts of Internet users and at the same time proved that not all twins are the same. According to the BBC, in interracial couples, children with different skin colors are born in one case out of 500.

Now the girls are nine months old. Kalani Dean is similar in skin color to Whitney's mother, a white American, and Jarani inherited the skin color of Thomas' father, an African American. Whitney posted a photo of her daughters on Facebook, signing: "We are genetic twins. Kalani (left) is light and has blue eyes, and Jarani (right) is dark with brown eyes. It's rare, but it's so wonderful to share it!" Facebook users could not disagree with the happy mother of unusual twins.
