Excuse This House

*Do not use or direct link to the images on this page ~ Read why here*

Some houses try to hide the fact
That children shelter there
Our boasts it quite openly
The signs are everywhere



For smears are on the windows
Little smudges on the door
I should apologize I guess
For the toys strewn on the floor



But I sat down with the children
And played, laughed and read
And if the door bell doesn’t shine
Their eyes will shine instead



For when I’m forced to choose
One job or the other
It’s good to be a house wife
But I’d rather be a Mother
