I Get Knocked Down, I Get Up Again

Wednesday, January 4, 2012


Yesterday, I was defeated.


I lost my patience.
I screamed and didn't bother to get a pillow.
I got hit in the face with a plastic wrench.
I got poked in the eye multiple times by a curious toddler.
I fought a battle with hangers and they won.
My inner worries got the best of me and tears were shed.

Yesterday was not my shining moment as a mother. Not even close.

Today...is a new day. And now, both you and I have that dumb song stuck in our heads.

You are welcome.
