TI: So, Peggy, can I ask you just quickly about your children? So how many children...

PF: [Laughs] I got three.

TI: And so can you give me the names?

PF: Boy, Kennet.

TI: Right.

PF: Kennet, Ken. And the girl, Jennet. You spell the "Kennet" way, but take the "J" and "K" out. And you spell the same way. And then May, Jennet May. And then the last one is Fay Lee.

TI: So there are four kids?

PF: No, three.

TI: Kennet, Jennet...

PF: Kennet, Jennet...

TI: And May.

PF: Fay. No, Jennet May.

TI: Okay.

PF: See I had 'em all apart, so I could enjoy each kid.

TI: How many years apart for each one?

PF: The first one is three and nine months.

TI: Okay.

PF: And then they're seven year apart, the last ones are seven year.

TI: So you had more time...

PF: Each one I could enjoy. See, I played cowboy and everything with my son, then he got three and nine month and I had the next one. But the next one started to walk early, so, but she's the bossy one, yeah. [Laughs]

TI: [Laughs] Okay. So I finished all my questions, is there anything else you want to say, a story or anything that maybe you want to share before we finish the interview?

PF: No. That's my life. [Laughs]
