Patience Exhaustion

Day 247

4/27/20

Children are one of life's greatest blessings

Being a full time parent is exhausting

Patience is tested daily

It becomes more evident

With each passing hour

That patience is a finite resource

And the tank is running on fumes

A deep breath

A silent reminder

That

Children are one of life's greatest blessings

Keeps me from losing it completely

Moments of peace are few

Sprinkled in between

The yelling

The crying

The whining

And the sibling on sibling crime

Are moments of pure bliss That make the turmoil bearable

And totally worth it

Time to go recharge the battery

Before I fall asleep on the desk.

This one has been a real peach lately...
