Summary
What do you title the episode that has everything? This is a very special episode involving a very special announcement. But it also has so much more. Some ridiculous golf talk; does having more kids make you a worse parent; kids asking great questions and teaching each other; how we knew nothing back in the day; a story of heartbreak that teaches a life lesson; and what if you don't immediately feel attachment to your baby?
So much here. Truly, do not miss this one.
