Five Lords A Leaping

A lot of people, when they see me out with my boys, will comment that I've got a Team.

"You've almost got yourself a baseball team," they'll say.

"We've got a whole bunch of teams," I sometimes answer. Because we've also got a basketball team and a golf foursome (plus a spare). And while we're not quite a soccer team or a lacrosse team, my family is a perfect built-in bocce tournament just waiting to happen. (We're also really good at Tetherball.)

What these people don't know, what no one could ever guess, is the real reason I keep having boys. Let the world think I'm trying for a football team. What I'm really aiming for is this.
