Day In, Day Out

Wonder Pets singing in the background
Shy of 2 and squishing my cheeks
The wheels of a toy scoot across the laminate floors
Barks of dogs make their way to my ears

Running back and forth
My lip now twitching
The stress of the morning catching up with me
I will not break

But I do
I break from the writing
Only to correct a mistaken 4 year old
And then back to running

The twitching has stopped
Now it is time for more correction
On and on the day will go
Relief will come just in time

I like your way of expressing the different directions you're pulled, as a mom. Good job, Bri! :)
