I remember getting ready to hit the town for some fun Friday night shenanigans back in my hay day. Now my Friday night's resemble screaming kids, laundry, dishes, dinner, and hopefully a glass of wine.
Katy Perry's got nothing on a Mom's Friday night.
There's a child in my bed.
Might be urine by my head.
Diapers all over the room.
Is that glitter, get the broom?
Husband passed out on flash cards.
Barbie's naked on the floor.
What's this sticky film on the door?
Pictures of my kids.... Ended up online. I'm a Mom!
Oh Well.
But I signed up I'm the wife.
Yeah, we put the kids to bed.
All the screaming hurt my head.
No one slept, I should have fled.
Yeah, we spanked all of the kids.
Hurt my foot on a sippy cup lid.
So I had a glass of wine.
Kids came streaking through the room.
Chased them with the wooden spoon.
Then I had some more wine.
Yeah I may have broke the law.
I just tripped over a doll.
Here's to plenty more Friday nights like this one.
