A day in the life of mommy!!



Today I left some dishes dirty,
The bed I made at 3:30,
The diapers soaked a little longer,
The odor grew a bit stronger.
The crumbs I spilled the day before
Are staring at me from the floor
The fingerprints there on the wall
Will likely still be there next fall.
The dirty streaks on those window panes,
Will still be there next time it rains.
"Shame on you, old lazy bones, and just what did I do today?”
I nursed a baby till he slept,
I held a toddler while she wept,
I played a game of hide and seek,
I squeaked a toy so it would squeak.
I pulled a wagon; sang a song,
taught a child right from wrong.
What did I do this whole day through?
Not much that shows, I guess it’s true.
Unless you think that what I’ve done,
Might be important to someone
With bright blue eyes and soft brown hair.
If that is true I’ve done my share.
