After I read aloud to Lia Ben Jonson's paean to poverty, there followed the following colloquy:
LIA (jesting): Good thing we'll be spared from riches by you, Abdiel, and by the five little brothers who will follow you.
ELI: FIVE!!??!!??!!
LIA (still jesting): Yeah! Don't you think it would be perfect to have three girls and six boys?
ELI: NO!!! You should have three girls and three boys.
LIA: But what will I do after the three boys are grown?
ELI (impatient): REST!!!!! Rest from having all those babies!!!
