What did I do today?

edited December 2011 in Babies
Today I left some dishes dirty
The bed got made around 3:30

The diapers soaked a little longer
The odor grew a little stronger

The crumbs I spilled the day before
Are staring at me from the floor

The fingerprints there on the wall
Will likely be there still next fall

The dirty streaks on those windowpanes
Will still be there next time it rains

Shame on you, you sit and say
Just what did you do today?

I held a baby til he slept
I held a toddler while he wept

I played a game of hide and seek
I squeezed a toy so it would squeak

I pulled a wagon, sang a song
Taught a child right from wrong

What did I do this whole day through?
Not much that shows, I guess that's true

Unless you think that what I've done
Might be important to someone

With dark brown eyes and soft brown hair
If that is true....I've done my share
