Today, I laughed with my children...

With the man of god away on business
Doing his best and leaving me the rest
I had to start out early

So much to do
So little time
Before I knew it, it was time to unwind
But instead, I had to find new energy

There were 2 young ladies, pretty as can be
Waiting to spend some time with me
All of a sudden I heard, "Mommy, what are we doing?"

They were so excited to be with me
And though I was tired I had to meet
Their expectations or they would have been ruined

So I had to come up with a plan
I had to be wise and understand
That what they needed was mom to be into them

To be everything they needed then
I listened as they filled me in
On just about everything they could think to share

I took the time to enjoy them
While we cooked and baked and sang hymns
Thanking the Lord for answering my prayers

So many did not take the time
Now wishing they could push rewind
But days are gone that will not come again

I thank and praise the Lord above
For teaching me how to walk in love
So today, I just laughed with my children!
