Myles and Tanner were made up to be matching for Twins Day!
Myles (left) had apparently been saying how he and his friend Tanner (right) had the same eye color and hair! The post has since been shared over a whopping 269,000 times and has received over 51,000 likes! The pair have truly captured the internet’s heart.
Ms Tankersley wrote that she was truly moved by the image.
She wrote alongside the image :
“Late last night Myles went on & on about how he had to be twins with a boy in his class for Twin Day because they look exactly the same- same eyes, same hair. He was adamant that they were identical. So after the kids went to bed I headed to Walmart at 9 pm to get matching outfits.”
She continued:
“Their teacher sent me this picture today. My heart melted. Obviously two very different children, but Myles didn’t see that. Wouldn’t the world be such a better place if we could all view it through the eyes of a couple of 5yr olds?”
The response to the image across the internet has been staggering.
People were quick to praise the picture for showing such a beautifully pure moment in a world that can be seen as rife with hate nowadays. There are a lot of adults who could learn a thing or two from these two boys.

“This is the absolute coolest ever! Thank you for sharing. The eyes of the innocent. Isn’t it great!!! All should be like this. We are all the same inside. God made us all!”
“Of course, they are twins!! They are adorable, young men. What differences? Beautiful photo & story.”
“Love this so much. Kids are so free of predetermined societal imposes thoughts. So refreshing, so wonderful, so insightful, and so inspirational for all to think about these two teaching the world a lesson on loving one another.”
Hopefully this image will continue to spread its powerful positive message!
None of us are really different, and at a time when it can feel like society is polarizing and being pushed to extremes of hatred, it is important to remember that we are all the same at heart.
And, if kids can understand this principle, then all adults should as well.
No one is born with hatred in them, it is learned over time, and the more we can do to combat this attitude on a daily basis, the faster we can move towards a world completely without hate.
