the unexpected


Can six words be this hard?
All day, and only now writing.
Even now, I have to multitask.
Hold baby, make toast, type, eat.
Call friend, feed kid, plan birthday.
I never expected motherhood equalled juggling.

Just don't toss the baby or toast.
Up in the air, I mean.
You are a superpro juggler, though.

Why isn't juggling a required course?
Really, someone should have warned us.
All those classes about having them.
None about what comes after birth.
Doesn't seem right, now, does it?

I am a superhero! Great attitude.
Just call me Supper Juggler, please.
Classes for superherodom? Not enough.
Perhaps apprenticeship? Good birth control, too.
