I have a couple of friends who have a toddler and now a set of twins. I can only imagine what their day is like with no sleep, no time to even shower or talk to each other, just a constant string of feedings and diaper changes. So, for them, I dedicate this poem. They are the strongest, most loving people ever, even if they don't feel it right now! Love you guys!
Labour of Love
You recall the excitement
when you heard the news
You recall the fear
when you heard there were two!
You got through it
the first time
And there were hills to climb
with strength you didn't know you had
and he is beautiful and fine.
Now you are feeling
tired, sometimes defeated and weak
Just a constant circle of work
never ending and kind of bleak.
There is no instant pay-off
for the gift that keeps on giving
And I'm sure, at times, you think,
is this living?
But don't despair, my dear friends
you know God up above
Will shower you with blessings
for your Labour of Love.
You guys Rock!!
