What Did I Do Today

I read this poem and loved it. I hope you all enjoy it, it is how I live my life and I bet many of you can identify with me! This may also be a great thing to copy and put on the fridge to remind all those husbands who come home with little understanding of what goes on during the day. As my neighbor told me the other day, who has time for housework when we are growing children, mind , body and little souls! Enjoy!


What Did I Do Today
Today I left some dishes dirty,
the bed got made around 3:30.
The diapers soaked a little longer,
The odor grew a little stronger.
The crumbs I spilled the day before
Are staring at me from the floor.
the fingerprints there on the wall
Will likely be there still next fall.
the dirty streaks on those windowpanes
Will still be there next time it rains.
Shame on you, you sit and say,
Just what did you do today?
I held a baby till she slept,
I held a toddler while he wept.
I played a game of hide and seek,
I squeezed a toy so it would squeak.
I pulled a wagon, sang a song,
Taught a child right from wrong.
What did I do this whole day through?
Not much that shows, I guess that's true.
Unless you think that what I've done,
might be important to someone
with deep green eyes and soft brown hair,
If that is true....I've done my share. -Author Unknown-
