#30 Baby Daze

Diapers, drool, and milk up-chuck
And things that might be more than "yuck"
You wake up twelve times per night
You thought you heard the baby cry
It's not easy, yes I know
But it's better than what's up the road! 
Soon they'll start school, but you're not done
The hard work has just begun. 
Cookies, homework, brand-new friends
The cuts and bruises just don't end. 
Now high school's just around the corner
Finals, cars, and year-end formals. 
Pretty soon they'll need a car
They'll leave the nest and follow their hearts. 
College, dating, wedding bells!
Screaming, laughing, baby smells?
We've come full circle, I'm sad to say. 
You're old and tired, hair turned gray. 
It's still not over though, that's not it
They want you to babysit!
It's not easy, yes I know
But you're done walking down that road
And so I give applause and praise
Hip-hip, HORRAY! For baby days.

Thanks for Stopping by!
