Sometimes having a baby makes it feel like there is no time for anything but to hold your little one:
Feeding
Feeding Burping
Feeding Burping Changing
feeding Burping Changing Cooing
Feeding Burping Changing Cooing Fussing
Feeding Burping Changing Cooing Fussing Rocking
Feeding Burping Changing Cooing Fussing Rocking Sleeping
Feeding Burping Changing Cooing Fussing Rocking Sleeping Walking
Burping Changing Cooing Fussing Rocking Sleeping Walking
Changing Cooing Fussing Rocking Sleeping Walking
Cooing Fussing Rocking Sleeping Walking
Fussing Rocking Sleeping Walking
Sleeping Walking
Walking
Though the order may change,
The motions are the same.
Regardless of time,
Regardless of day,
My life
And the life of my baby's
Is made up of the same movements
Over and
Over and
Over again.
It is exhausting
For both of us.
I sometimes long for a change...Does he?
But then I remember that
Music is made
Using the same seven notes in variation.
And only twenty-six letters combine
To create poems, plays, and masterpieces.
I realize that monotony can create miracles.
So I will go through the motions with my baby
And we will dance
Through the pages
Of our own story.
