"Sometimes you cope with it very well and sometimes you don't," he continued. "And sometimes you wake up and you're desperately terrified, you're so tired you can't [do] anything, so you just get through it like anyone else."

And, like all one-year-olds, Stephen assured reporters the twins are "nuts"! And, while Anna's eager for them to start walking, Stephen, who's also dad to Lilac, 11, and Billy, 13, knows better. "Just wait," he tells her. "Our lives are over once that happens!" Ha!
It's rare that this very private couple opens up. It's no wonder they were silent for so long after the birth of their babies. We wish them well.
