I would have argued for Edwards'. I understand the rule. I disagree with it.
Besides, it's really his choice, in the end.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

I am no grammar expert, but Edwardses' looked perfectly right to me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. The suckiness of Chicago's L system has made the NYT: A Rail System (and Patience) Are Stretched Thin in Chicago
eta: OK, this is funny:
A 30-ish father is having something of a rough time corraling his 5-year-old daughter on the Red Line north during rush hour.
She won't sit where he tells her. She wants to stand on the seat. She wants to kneel on the seat. She wants to stand in the aisle.
Finally, getting exasperated, he threatens her with a timeout and lectures her: "Remember, safety first." She slams back into the seat and taunts him:
"No! Safety last!"

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
In searching for an article on my favourite twin story, I came across this which warmed the cockles of my heart.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Wow, that'll really put size in perspective. She looks amazing! Terribly jealous of her skin though.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I think a UK 10 is a US 8 -- in any case, I'd say she's only that size b/c of the boobs or height. I've been between 6 and 14 and that body fits into a 4-6 here.

When I used to watch the BBC WNTW, I think I figured out that you need to subtract 4, so a size 10 UK is closer to a 6 US.

Now tagless for your comfort.
We just introduced the kids to Peeps. DH said, "Lets keep feeding 'em to the kids and see what happens."
A world of no.
Brings to mind the episode of Malcolm in the Middle where Francis tries a Cool Hand Luke with Peeps.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
It was from an ita link, wasn't it?
Nope. Atul Gawande describing a particularly unpleasant surgery.
ita, I love those twins as well. It's the photo of them--sooo cute! I wonder what they look now.

Apostrophe rules are notoriously contradictory. Depending on which source you consult, it could be Edwards', Edwards's, Edwardes's, or something else entirely.
