A Bunch of Babies

We got a family down county what has had four twins. I don't remember what you call it when there is four babies what come at once, but that's what they had. It's kinda funny cause the mamma and daddy is both over forty year old and they has been trying to have a young'n since they was married over twenty year ago. That's when they heard about this doctor down on the Gulf Coast what could help them. He's what they calls a fertilizer doctor and he gives pill and shots what help make the woman be with child. Well in this case he kinda overshot the mark. It's like back in the fifties when we was having a long, dry spell. It hadn't rained for months and the crops was plum brown and dying right before our eyes. So all the peoples got together and held prayer meetings asking for rain. All the churches was asking their members to pray long and hard. After about three weeks of this there was announced on TV that a hurry cane were on the way. And it come right through here and we was flooding up all over. Then peoples was praying for a dry spot of land to stand on. I reckon it may be better to take what comes our way and be happy to get it. You always gotta remember you may just get what you ask for.
