A Toddler Poem

After a long night of crying and tiredness, I was still laying awake in my bed and this poem came to my head If you have ever been around kids or have kids, you will truly understand! Enjoy!

Daddy and Mommy are home from work and the night is so young
Two screaming children are on the run
One is crying and hitting away
The other is laughing and wanting to play

Mommy looks at Daddy and smiles just then
Daddy looks at Mommy and asks "What time is it again?"
The kids stop screaming and want to eat
Mommy grabs some cereal and they think it is a treat

Macaroni and Cheese is on their plate
Daddy wishes it was a big fat steak
"Time for a bath!" Mommy yells
She fills the tub up and helps it makes them not smell,
Like mac and cheese, dirt and sweat
The kids jump in and Daddy gets all wet!

They dry them off and put their pj's on
The kids start singing their favorite song
They usher them off to bed and they both sit upright
Now turn off the light and say good night

The little girl smiles and falls fast asleep
The little boy just sits and weeps
He doesn't want to go to sleep now
He wants to play
Mommy and Daddy can only pray

As their patience runs thin
The little boy just grins
He is sleeping in the middle of Mommy and Daddy once again

Mommy is so tired and Daddy starts to snore
The little boy tosses and turns and kicks mommy more and more
Mommy rubs his back as he drifts off to never never land
Good night my little man

As Mommy almost finds sleep
The little girl starts to weep
A really long sigh comes from far away
And Daddy goes in to save the day

All is quiet for the moment right now
But Mommy and Daddy are still awake some how!
