7:12. the apple of someone's eye: the person who is loved the most by someone. Would you mind if I ask you a question? If your daughter Emmy princess were twins, would the idiom become the apples of Wes's each eye? We have a idiom "not to feel pain even if put it into eye" (adorable/lovely) in our indigenous way of expression.
