Four Queens

On a recent game day, I lost to my son, Hyrum, four straight in Chess. 

Hyrum loves to trash talk.

So he constantly heckled me for not protecting my Queen.

Four times he confiscated my Queen as I poorly protected her.

Later as a humbled father, I talked with Hyrum about the importance of protecting "queens."

I explained how mothers and wives, girls and daughters are who we should protect and cherish. 

And I confessed that I had lost focus of my Queen in chess, but would do my best to keep my attention on my true "queen," my wife.
