Oh Motherhood

I wake in the morning rubbing the crust from my eyes I drag out of bed and squeeze into a bra half my size How can it be morning Didn't I JUST go to bed I will take a nap today Ha, not easier done than said I look in the mirror with a scowl and a grunt step on the scale and give it a furious punt I walk into the baby's room with one eye half shut I take a wiff to smell her nasty little butt Then she looks at me with that toothless grin as if to say Where have you been? She giggles and squeels and blows a few bubbles And I think to myself, boy I can get used to these troubles. Ive never been so exhausted, fat, and energy depleted I've never felt so loved content, warm, and needed For what she takes I get back ten fold So its all very worth it even if I feel 80 years old
