contents not specifically bequeathed, bank accounts and automobiles to each of my

are of such age that they should have their college degrees and are able to fend for
themselves. At such time beforehand as Meghan and Elizabeth decide, or June 30,
2006, the house shall be put up for sale and each of my four children shall have
equal share in the proceeds. If any child desires to buy the house, he or she shall
have six to twelve months to arrange financing at fair market value. However, if
one of these beneficiaries does not survive me, that beneficiary's living children
shall take his or her share equally. If there are no living children, the surviving
beneficiaries shall take the share equally. If there are no surviving
beneficiaries, the property shall go to-my r/~siduary estate.
