Pardon Our Mess... Twins Live Here
Some families try to cover up
The children in their midst;
We welcome guests and make it clear
That our priority's our kids.
You'll find smears on many windows,
And smudges on our doors;
Our 'fridge is always chaos,
Toys often litter floors.
Our family's lucky -- we have twins,
We play and laugh and read;
We'd rather sing, learn games, take walks,
And share our lives and needs,
Than spend our precious hours and days
Apart while I do housework.
My role as MOM of twins, you see,
Is my chosen form of "homework."
