Listen to poem:
I save memories of four boys, ~~not three, They got out two toys, gameboy that would be, My they have grown, they are aged differently, Day not as smooth, as I make it, ~~you see, Why did the older two, ~~play sneakily, Made the brothers to be angry, ~~like me, "Share the gameboy", I said commandedly, "Here, the toy, lest dad turn off the T.V.!"

Cute one, my friend. So you have four boys, huh? My mom had four girls within five years!

The two boys were three years apart, making it a full house for seven years--then five were added (two more boys + three girls made it a royal flush). At first with the boys, people thought we were part Chinese (effects of a one child law) whereby, care in old age--a son is best Andrea--thanks for sharing, Aloha William
