Dirty dishes, dirty clothes, even the kids are dirty......
Ice cream with chocolate all over the kitchen counters and floors.
Summer vacation is here, kids are home for a little over two long months.
Taco Tuesdays are now served on Thursdays too.
Remembering to take your vitamins is hard to do when caring for kids and a household.
A spouse sometimes can be a big help.
Cleaning up after the dog really wasn't part of the deal.
Trying to be heard above the excited laughter and squeals of the children can be hard at times.
If only all mothers could afford maids and nannies at least once a week.
Only if her day would end when everyone else's day did, but her day continues late into the night
No one works as hard as the Mother of the household, the one who takes care of the children and all the messes, then neglects her own self-care due to her own exhaustion.
About the Creator
Mother Combs
Come near, sit a spell, and listen to tales of old as I sit and rock by my fire. I'll serve you some cocoa and cookies as I tell you of the time long gone by when your Greats' greats once lived.

And that is why I would never be a Mother. It's just too exhausting! Salute to all Mother's out there, especially you!
