Jia Sarnicola and Zuri Copeland, both four years old, are close mates. And by "close mates," we mean people who do everything together. Seriously. Jia's mother, Ashley Sarnicola, told BuzzFeed News that the girls became friends "instantly" when they met as 3-year-olds at kindergarten and have been close friends ever since.

"They both [have] the same vivid energy, creativity, and desire to care for others, and both [are] quite outspoken about their wants," Sarnicola added. "They like singing and dancing."

Sarnicola considers herself fortunate to be parenting her daughter in Miami, where children of many colors and ethnicities co*exist.

She also mentioned that she and Zuri's mother had become friends. "We've always encouraged the girls that being distinct is cool, and that making new friends every day is important," she explained. "There are six distinct languages spoken among the 15 students in their class at school."

"She wishes she had a chocolate-color complexion like Zuri because she prefers chocolate to vanilla," Jia told her.

The girls were likewise born 48 hours apart, on June 3 and 5, respectively. As a result, they ended up throwing a combined 4th birthday celebration and, of course, dressing up as twins.

The girls now tell people they share a birthday and are twins since they had their celebration together.

Victoria Williams, Zuri's 23-year-old sister, told BuzzFeed News, "They tell everyone that they are twins." "They're certain they're sisters." Jia and Zuri recently informed several other small girls that they were siblings.

According to Williams, the girls informed Zuri and Jia that they couldn't be sisters. "There's no way," the girl stated, "since you don't have the same skin hue as me." Jia cried as a result of the statement, but she clapped back. "You have no idea what you're talking about," Jia responded. "We're twins since our birthdays are the same!"

"We have the same birthday and we have the same personality," the sisters subsequently told Williams. Their sophisticated answers both surprised and thrilled her. "They were sobbing," Williams observed, "but they were protecting each other." "It was quite lovely."

The discussion moved Williams so much that she chose to post it on Twitter. The story of the little BFFs got viral all over social media. They said that many people may learn from Jia and Zuri's example.

Also, several individuals supported the notion that they are DEFINITELY twins.
