Excuse This House
I am rereading a book that my sis-in-law, Jenny gave me for my birthday. It is 10 Things I Want My Daughter to Know Getting Her Ready for Life by Annie Chapman. She shares a poem in the book called, "Excuse This House". I loved it so much that I just had to share it with y'all.
Excuse This House
Some houses try to hide the fact that children shelter there.
Ours boasts of it quite openly, the signs are everywhere.
For smears are on the windows, little smudges on the door;
I should apologize, I guess, for toys strewn on the floor.
But I sat down with the children
and we played and laughed and read;
And if the doorbell doesn't shine, their eyes will shine instead.
For when at times I'm forced to choose the one job or the other;
I want to be the homemaker, but first I'll be a mother.
