Mom poetry

Virginia

I'm the first one up.

And the last to go to bed.

I am the last one to eat.

If I eat.

I never have a hot shower.

And when I do it lasts for a few minutes.

I run on fumes.

I have yesterday's or the day before clothes on.

Maybe it's​ yesterday's clothes.

I don't remember.

Most of the time I don't even remember what day it is.

I have a baby crying wanting me constantly.

I have a toddler running around.

Naked.

Refusing a diaper and clothes.

Sometimes I think of my life without them.

I'd be able to do all the things I want.

Then I also think of the small moments.

The need for me moments.

The ouchies.

The boo-boos.

The vaccines.The falls and slips.

The cuddles and holding me.

Never wanting to let go.

Sometimes I get mad but,

This life.

This life.

It IS worth it!

I am a beast.

I am the shiznit.

I am the damn bomb diggity.

I am a warrior.

I am a mom.
