Well….Congratulations!

Gather ’round and listen, fellas,
How the stork, at Walt-and-Trella’s
Dropped a bundle, pink end merry,
The twenty-sixth of January.

Second baby holds no terror
For who have learned by trial-and-error;
No problem, David’s bottle and bathy-
They have learned all this on Kathy.

Wally’s smile is inches bigger–
Trella has resumed her figger;
Bernard’s smirking too, for joy:
He SAID this one would be a boy!

With his start, he should be, yessir-
A Botany Teacher, or Professor.
TALENTS?? They will be–attention!–
Much too numerous to mention!

In closing, it will suit us swella
If the kid takes after Trella- –
For we can stand him wet or squally,
So he DOESN’T RESEMBLE WALLY!!
