Where are you getting these adjectives from?

The nouns look OK:
(3rd declension)
rex
regis
regi
regem
rege

reges
regum
regibus
reges
regibus

(also 3rd declension)
mater
matris
matri
matrem
matre

matres
matrum
matribus
matres
matribus

But those adjectives!! Holy smoke!! You need to make them match the nouns (which are in 3rd declension) and yet stay in their own declensions. <i>Bonus, a, um</i> and <i>meus, a, um</i> are <b>first and second</b> declensions.

What are the endings for first declension? They will be needed for <i>me-</i> to modify <i>mater</i>.

What are the endings for second declension? They will be needed for <i>bon-</i> to modify <i>rex</i>.

<b>So ... the nouns are fine. Just fix the adjectives. Repost whenever you're ready.</b>
