Separate message threads between iPhone and iPad.

i get separate message threads from my mom depending on if she is messaging from her phone or her iPad. I checked her settings and they are the same as mine. She has her phone number on her iPad to send and receive messages. When I check info on the message thread from her ipad it shows her email only as the contact info. Any advice please.
