A new twist

Jesus loves me, this I know
For the Bible tells me so.
And there's still another way
I know, though it seems strange to say.

With 3 under 3 I have found
That I'm house- and auto-bound.
To take the 3 into a store
Invites chaos, danger, maybe more.

So for fifteen minutes plus five
One-way, I'd load the kids and drive
To my favorite coffee shop.
They had drive-thru, no need to stop.

Don't unload the herd of cats
Who bolt and dart, imagine that!
And do not give them space to run...
I know, they never have any fun.

But, oh, God loves me, I'm glad to say
Because while driving the other day
I spied a sign both orange and pink.
I was so excited, I could hardly think

Of anything else! For you see,
It's a mere six miles down the road from me!
A Dunkin Dounts, open 24/7...
And the best part - a drive-up window! Ah, that's pure heaven!!!!!

I found you right about the time Levi was born and have been following your transitions to mommyhood x 3. I have three and was in your position not too long ago. I called myself a raccoon for at least three years, because I only went out after dark to forage for food -- ie, WalMart runs after bedtime! Hooray for Dunkin Donuts drive-thru! I used to do and still do the same thing for a much-needed french vanilla cappuccino. Keep up the great blogging!
