Ode to my chillens…on Mother’s Day

Benj, Gabe, Gracie and Finny

This is your mother, aka mom, and to daddy,“Stinny'”

I just wanted to say

On this Mother’s Day

That I’m so grateful

To be in the mothering way

You each make my heart go

Pitter Pat, pitter patter

And at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter

That you leave your dirty socks in random places

Or that sometimes you pull sulky faces

That you can’t seem to figure out how keep your clothes folded

and close your dresser drawers

Or that the most fun games always seem to involve

slamming doors

I’m just so glad that you’re mine

And I’m yours

When I think of you all,  it makes me smile

And even though you can’t stay small

(In fact you are already getting much too tall)

I feel blessed beyond compare that you are all mine

For at least a  little while

Each of you is perfection in your own way

And every day prayers of thanks I say

To our Father in Heaven

Who loaned you to me..

so very kindly allowing me to be..

Your Mommy!

And oh wow, this makes me so, so, so, SO

                   Happy

I love you all to infinity and beyond

thank you for the honour of being your mom.
