Though three 'precious presents' grew to be strong, loving, successful men
Not one has lost the childlike sense of fun, whimsy and wonder that
Keeps the human spirit young
And if you ask how is it possible that not one has lost his childlike sense of fun
I'd surmise:
While growing up …
Each was seen to be (and felt loved as) a unique and deeply valued individual
Each learned to rejoice with family in good times and
Each learned to react respectfully connected in trying times for this reason:
Divided we prove strong enough to survive; however, together, our spirits thrive
While growing up, each watched their parents play as hard as we worked
While growing up, each felt disciplined in such creative ways as to
Inspire depth of thought concerning mutual respect rather than resentful rebellion
And over time, as three Mouseketeers developed into Musketeers who learned to
Whistle (a positively focused tune) while they worked
All three came to value and respect each other's strengths and accomplishments
And thus do I surmise that the absorptive powers of
Positivity combined with creative methods of self control
Transformed three wild and crazy guys into today's trio of fast friends ☺️

Please make no mistake
While growing up, these 'precious presents'
Also fought as hard as they played, so
Stories, concerning my need to conjure up creative consequences
In hopes of transforming three, wild and crazy, little guys into fast friends will
Pop up on your screen some time down the road ...
Gosh! With so many memorable moments churning through my mind …
Choice and patience prove necessary each time I sit down to write!☺️
