Mothering

I have a confession.

The laundry is in piles
there are dirty dishes in my sink.
And I didn't sweep.
I haven't touched a vacuum
 in over a week.

But I did hold my baby
and count her precious toes
and made her laugh
by tickling all her chubby rolls

and I nursed her and snuggled her
for how long, nobody knows
and that is all that matters today
and that is all that will matter
every day.
