Well done on the poem prompt, and the poem, and also on the sentiments expressed. It's such a warm-hearted poem I can see these two men are lucky and probably know it.

Really great poem for this contest! I love that you love both of these sons-in-law equally together and apart, and both have brought you joy and captured your heart! There may be differences but the similarities are what is more important! Written with love and done well!

Thank you Teri for your very kind review and words of encouragement.
Comment from Mark D. R.
Your illustration captured my attention and caused me to read and now review your post! I can relate a bit to your story, but I have a fraternal son in law and daughter in law. Like you, they each have two children. My daughter has the girls; my son has the boys.
And we love them all. Of course, their children increase our pleasure, with no dread or frowns!

Mark, you completely got my point. I had fun with this because my mother
in-law wasn't the nicest. But she did me a favor, because it made me vow that someday I would be the best that I could be. Therefor by showing all the differences in my daughter's husbands, I could show that to me they were exactly alike, as I love them identically. It was a fun poem to write, and Im so happy for you as well. Thank you again Mark, for the very kind review.
Comment from Paul McFarland
Very good humorous poem written to the prompt. Mothers-in-law always seem to get along with the husbands of their daughters, but getting along with the wives of their sons is usually a different story.

Sweet sweet story about your identical sons-in-law. Everyone should be as fortunate as you but I think that it is Joe and Chris who are the lucky ones to have you as their mother-in-law.
Well done.

Comment from Debbie Pope
What a charming poem. I like the easy rhythm and rhyme. You should frame it for their Christmas present.
You used the required words and wrote an engaging poem. Good luck in the contest.

A very well written poem in rhyme and story.
The fun you had with it comes through in every line.
I would highlight the words you needed to show that you have each word the contest required.
Good luck in the contest and thank you for the delightful poem.
