I have a little wooden chest,
Within I keep my treasure's blessed,
Four locks of hair, when first was shorn,
Two boys, two girls, to us were born,
Now they've grown and moved away,
But in wood chest will ever stay.

Lovely! Sad to see them grown isn't it? But it's also a good thing, it means you've done your job well! I am prouder than I can say of mine - as I know you are of yours!
