Mommyhood

I changed a diaper…
                                                           ….and changed another a half hour later.

I fed the baby….
                                                           …..and fed him again and again and again.

I took a potty break…
                                                          …..and helped someone else take four more.

I washed three loads of laundry….
                                                          …..and saw that I still had three more to go.

I vacuumed the kitchen….
                                                           …..and did that again two more times. That hour.

I played cars, trucks, trains, blocks….
                                                           …..and we’ve only gone through one-third of the toys we own.

Four naps have been taken today….
                                                           …..none of which have been mine.

I thought about what to make for dinner….
                                                            ….and made breakfast instead.

I wore pajamas all day today….
                                                             ….because I forgot to get dressed.

My boys wore pajamas all day….
                                                             ….because I was too tired to dress them.

I hugged, kissed, and cuddled….
                                                             …..because I’m a mommy and that’s what we do.*

*amongst all of the other things that I previously mentioned. Mommyhood is exhausting, but the last line makes it all worth it…most of the time. (KIDDING!)
