So, a couple of weeks ago I had these nagging words in my head that needed to be written down.
It really started as a kid’s book. Some sort of humorous counting primer.
It didn’t stay a kid’s book long.
It became a poem for moms who know what it’s like to count. You know, the you’d-better-do-what-I-told-you-to-do-before-I-get-to-three type of counting.
But the mom in the poem is nice. She goes up to ten. (Kind of.)
I recently joined Wattpad, so I posted the poem there. Grab a glass of wine and head on over to check it out (seriously, I think the whole thing is shorter than this blog post). Then please share it with all the moms you know that could use a little “time out.” ;)
Here’s the poem:
