We are old MacDonald’s great-grandchildren who help him in his fields during weekends, We gather chopped hays and feed his chicken, then watch him works with his farmers and friends. We love working in the fields together, We ride ponies and horses…we’re cowgirls! We greet his hardworking farmworkers who’re there while they cut rice straws with their sharp sickles. Our grandfather owns large hectares of land, Ranging from the foot of the blue mountain to the spot where we, three sisters stand; Tour around freely! Ride in his land train! Beyond grandpa’s rice fields are big orchards, And behind are gardens with vegetables where we’ll immensely enjoy afterwards; Healthy foods will be on our long tables! Our grandpa is so happy to have us, He says, “ With triplets grandkids, life’s so nice!” So, when we go back to school he gives cash, buys new dress, pair of boots and hair bowties.

A very sweet life these kids are having. Their life is one of work and play . Those who live in the lap of nature have so much more of peace and joy than that of the urban population. Well done Len. Congratulations on your win.
