[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm sure it is real. I got a request to join meal train for someone with twins and both sets of parents who rented apartments close by to help for the first 6 months.
Meal train had laundry list of do s and don'ts plus suggestions of errands we could run including picking up/dropping off hisbands dry cleaning.

Holy shit.  What the hell were both sets of parents there for?[/quote]

I don't want to derail this thread, but it was just as hilarious and "world is rotating around us" that I will share some of the best parts:
1. How to pronounce the kids names, acceptable versus unacceptable nicknames " Annie is ok, but no Anna banana please" ( made up to protect identity)
2. Errands did include picking up husbands dry cleaning, but also dog walking and toiletries like laundry detergent, paper towels etc were suggested 
3. Signs that you needed to leave included babies crying, but also they wanted you to run the errands and clean during this time. 
4. I'm pretty sure there was something about monetary donations like a cheery " feel free to leave a nice surprise for the new parents in the money jar " or something that effect.
Of course I never saw said money jar since I never ever went over there.
