London mum Kayleigh Okotie is living the dream.

First, they had different complexions. One was fair coloured while the other was a deep shade of chocolate.
Scientists refer to the phenomenon as a “genetic quirk.”
Jaziyah’s hair is straight while that of Naylah is dark and curly.
Kayleigh told The Sun:
“They have completely different personalities, which is amazing to see.”
The mum of two insists that though the boy and girl were born on the same day, their characters are like night and day.
The 32-year-old is of English and Nigerian descent but she was still shocked when she saw her babies for the first time.
She had just gone through a long and tough labour and all she could do after giving birth was cuddle the kids and fall asleep.
When she woke up, Kayleigh noticed she had missed a glaring detail about her babies.
