With sincerest apologies to Dr. Seuss…
We have brains in our heads
And feet in our pumps
Sometimes we look awesome
Sometimes it’s all frump
We’re on our own and we know what we know
We make every decision about where things go
We run our own businesses
Run the house, too
Our day doesn’t end
When your day is through
With the brains in our heads
And the kids at our feet
We decide what they wear
We decide what they eat
We wash them and brush them and head out the door
Then after school drop off we head to the store
We run errands
And meetings
And all the health care
When it gets crazy
We’ll want to slow down
Which makes us wish
We could head straight out of town
It’s opener there in the wide open air
But our to-dos keep us from ever going there
So…
Be your name Mama, or Mommy, or Mom
Or just WHERE IS THAT? which we know is the norm
You’re doing great things!
Things that have to be done
And you’ll keep on doing those things
Whether or not they are fun
Today is your day!
Your mountain (of laundry) is waiting.
So…get on your way!
THAT just made my day!
