Perhaps their grandmother can
care for these three small children
now. But a time will come when she
will not be here to do it, or will be too
old. Would you be willing. then, to
be a mother to them-a real mother?
Or, would it not be more fair to them
to take them now, If you should
marry the man, and rear them as you
would your own children?
Think that over before you make
your decision. OF course, If the grand
mother really wanted to keep them.
it would be up to the three Of you to
decide what is best.
Your love would have to be very
sincere, for you to do this. Don't
make hasty decision.
