Keeping track of multiples

[Guest guest]

I am the brother of identical twins as well as the father of identical twins (no, identical twins do NOT run in families), and my mother had the same complaint I did, that you can't keep a matched pair of kids together. I think that raising multiples is good training to be an Army Ranger, if you ever want to go that route...

In my previous neighborhood was a family with triplet girls. The only way one could carry on a conversation with a parent was to hold one of the girls while we talked. It evened up the job of supervising.

Developmental disabilities among multiples is like adding more pepper to the chili. Just makes a hot dish even hotter.

This, too, shall pass.... eventually.

Does anyone else have this problem!!!!

I love your chilli analogy!!! LOL!! It is so true! I would love to go places more but it is what it is and this too shall pass is right on!

My husband is a fraternal twin and everyone swears (even though I have fraternal cousins!) that we had twins because he was a twin- it's useless to try to argue about it! I have tried to explain how that twin thing works but it falls on deaf ears! OH well! My husband gets it and that's all that matters!! =0 D
