An Ode to Sleeping In
The morning is here
I’m in bed, without space,
surrounded by littles
with a foot in my face
Now my neck is all crooked
I’ve just looked at the clock
It’s not even 7!
Sleep in? What a crock.
Off to the Kid-Spa
The dishes are clean
And so’s the garage
I think it’s ‘bout time
I get a massage
So off to the spa,
my mom-ass will go
Where the staff are all cute
but the service is slow
And sometimes they bicker
and argue and whine
But it’s only a dollar
So it’s still worth my time.
Award Winning Mom
The laundry is in
Got the kids out the door
The house is a mess
Stuff all over the floor
I tidy it quickly
Like a bat out of hell…
So efficient, I am
But I know you can tell
Then off to the grocery store
I do go
Like a squirrel on crack
Ain’t no time to be slow
I get to the check out
Thinkin’ I deserve an award
But then… oh shit
I forgot my card
A Couch Time Poem
I cleaned out the car
and I cut the grass
Now I’m going to plant my ass
But oh, just wait…
It isn’t time
Must feed the kids before the wine
Love these whimsical yet true depictions of mommydom!
Thanks Corina!
Shan these are great. Love, Mom
