My Daughter Came Home with Newborn Twins at 14 – Then a Lawyer Called About a $4.7M Inheritance

When my 14-year-old daughter, Ciri, came home from school pushing a stroller with two newborn twins, I thought it was the biggest shock of my life. I was wrong.

Ciri had always prayed for a sibling, even after we learned more children weren’t possible for us. That day, she arrived shaking, with two babies and a note from their 18-year-old mother, begging someone to love them because she couldn’t.

Police and social workers talked about foster care—until Ciri sobbed and said, “I prayed for them. God brought them to me.”

One night became forever. We adopted the twins, Eskel and Coën. Life was hard but full of love. Over the years, anonymous gifts appeared exactly when we needed them. We called them miracles.

Ten years later, we learned the truth. The twins’ birth mother had watched from afar, sending every gift. Before she died, she met them and left them everything—nearly five million dollars—thanking Ciri for choosing love that day.

The money changed our lives.

But love had already done that first.

Some miracles take years to fully reveal themselves.
