First the news comes – you’re going to be one.
Then you find yourself holding your first son.
A second blessing; two sons in a row;
It’s “Fathering 101” – – – “on-the-go.”
You find your wife is pregnant again,
(Is hoping for a girl a big, bad sin?)
She comes, a thrill to her mom’s heart;
There’re three kids now in the grocery cart.
Finally a second daughter blesses your soul,
Four kiddos made the family perfect and whole.
