Three
Three years a mother
Look at you so tall!
Three years a juggler
Be careful don't fall!
A mother, a lover, a nurse, a friend
Go on now baby let's hear you count to ten!
A sometimes yes to the invite
Poor baby has the flu!
An often last minute cancelation
The sitter has something else to do!
I feel so tired, exhausted, and lonely
Wake up little baby let's get dressed for the day!
Not welcome in spaces where once I was praised
Come on goofy girl we've got a busy day!
But I can be a mother and love you just the same
Good job my baby you said your own name!
A woman, a lover, a nurse, a friend
Im all these things at once,
So why did adding mother complicate it for you in the end?
