I put "Estas kvar homoj en mia familio: min, mian edzo, kaj mian du filojn." but why is that wrong?

the "ge-" prefix denotes "of both sexes", so "gefiloj" is "sons and daughers", or "children" (in the sense of offspring as opposed to children in the sense of young people, which is more likely to be "infanoj"). This sentence refers only to sons, so "filoj" is correct.
