Just a poem I wrote for all you mommys

A little encouragement to mommys of young children...

The Mommy Thought Bubble:

They wake up at 6:00 crying
there's a spill on the floor
by 10:00 in the morning

(you think) you can't take anymore

Every plead that they make

is made in a whine

you heat up your coffee

for the 20th time

There are dishes from breakfast

and some from last night

you step in the playroom

to break up a fight

There's a diaper to change

and laundry to do

there won't be a moment

in the day left for you

But you take a deep breath

turn and see one child smile

and then in that moment

it is all made worthwhile

So you pull out the vaccum

put in a CD

and know that there's nowhere

you could be more happy

There've been so many moments

and so many times

that bring peace and joy

and laughter to your life

There are crayon colored drawings

you can't buy at the store

and tiny little shoes

lined up by the door

There might be handprints

on the mirrors
and legos on the floor

but these children of yours

you couldn't love more!

So open a window

to let in some fresh air

and watch them play in the yard

with the sun in their hair

cause their shoes will get bigger

the Legos disapear

But these moments and memories

to your heart will be dear!
