A Park Visit
The funniest sight if you could see
Is me pushing my 5 kids in a row on the swings.
Kids swarming the park at dinnertime today
I gave them the rules or they would pay.
A woman said “Whoa” 2 times obviously
As we approached with my little responsibilities.
They listened, they obeyed and I was so proud
McDonald’s was their reward, and boy did they get loud!
Getting happy with happy meals
It really is such a deal.
For 6 people it was only 20 bucks!
Now I have to clean my van of all that muck!
The other moms gazed with awe and some w/curiosity,
Some w/feelings of emptiness and some with painful animosity.
I may not know the impact one park visit had on others
But my blessings do I love with even more love I’ve discovered.
