Housewife

by chritty - Aries

I mop the floor
vacuum the carpets
scrub the toilets
walk the dog
change the diapers
put up with your mother
critizing
I cook three meals a day
and never complain
I smile when you come home from work
even though I had a bad day
your happiness comes first
its always been that way
i take the baby to the doctor
when he is sick
I forgotten
what its like
to sleep in
I do the laundry
wash and fold
then when its over
i do it again
I balance the check book
shop for food
bake the cookies
and kiss the boo boos
I'm a mother
a teacher a doctor
captain zora
a cab driver
all in one day
i play
with the children
hold them when they are sad
i make everything better
i never get mad
and even if I do
no one seems to notice
when it's time for dinner
I'm a housewife
a dedicated women
i love my life
my husband my children
but it would be nice
to hear you say
thank you


Reason for writing:

    to all the people who think housewifes are not important i just want to say you are very wrong our job is a 24 hour one the pay is low even though we deserve more we never get a day off though we need one and we are never appreciated our family has a better life because of us so please give us some credit
