a ryme to remember

[lisa]

I do not have any children I'm not even married for that matter ;D
But if I ever have babies I hope I will remember this little ryme I read in my Midwife book today.

"Cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow
Babies grow up as I've learned to my sorrow,
So cobwebs be silent, dust bunnies don't make a peep,
I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep".

I have a plaque that hung by my bed for years with that poem on it, it's my favorite! Children do grow up...we have 8 ...7 still at home, before long they'll all be moved out and starting a family of there own. I'll miss them dearly, but I have spent much valuable time with them and I am thankful for that time, I needed that special time.

I remember when Darlene put this one at the sink when the children started helping with the dishes.

Thank God For Dirty Dishes

Thank God for dirty dishes;
They have a tale to tell.
While others may go hungry,
We're eating very well
With home, health, and happiness,
I shouldn't want to fuss;
By the stack of evidence,
God's been very good to us.

Good poems!
