BABY'S QUIET FAMILY.
Whenever I walk
With my children three,
I laugh and I talk
For the whole family.
There's Ruth (her arm's broken!)
And Jane and Annette,
They never have spoken
Or laughed even, yet;
But I know when they're glad,—
Mothers always can tell,—
And I'm sad when they're sad,
For I love them so well!
Whenever we walk,
Though they're still as can be,
I can easily talk
Quite enough for the three.
W. G.
