I don't remember that particular pacifier incident but I do remember popping them in my own mouth.
I often got request for advice, but most often if somebody found out that they were having twins. My answer is usually the same. I don't know how I did it but I did. I had to have blocked the majority of it, not of anything specific, just because it was so incredibly hard that I did what I needed to do! And then that turns into adapting, which just becomes the way it goes going forward. I guess for me it started out as necessity because I didn't have a choice, turned into an ability to do it, for the most part, without thinking about it!
Just curious to know how often you heard, "wow, you've got your hands full!" We got it all the time, so I am wondering how universal that is for parents with lots of kids.

Awesome post! We have five kids so it resonated!

Loved this story! Read it out loud to my wife and we both cracked up laughing! It’s time to buy the book - also loved the book review!
