Cinderella

By SweetEvilness93

Wake up sunshine,
It's time for a new day,
Cook,
Clean,
Scrub the floors,
And the dishes,
Dust the shelves,
And don't forget,
To pick up toys,
All around the house,
Just so the child can wake up,
And tear them all out,
Of the toy box again,
Feeling tired?
There's no time for that,
You still have beds to make,
Dinner to cook,
Diapers to change,
Boo-boos to kiss,
And figure out how to plant,
Eyes in the back of your head,
So you don't miss a single trick,

Idly I wonder if this is what happened to Cinderella,
After she had kids.

    Sometimes it's good to be a man! This pretty much sums up my wife's day while I'm off doing the real work (HA!) Kidding - I'm retired now and am the New Kid on the Block, cheers!
