Enjoyed your poem greatly. You've managed to put the struggles of parenthood into such a nice beautiful flow of words (the total opposite of what parenting is...haha).
The only part I have a similar struggle with is with my cats wanting to barge in while I poop. They'll stick their paws under the door or crash against it. It's like a very mild zombie apocalypse.
Hahaha!!!! As a fellow spawner of spawn, I loved this! Only my spawn doesn't yet have a sibling to go play with so I can't try that tactic, haha. Instead I turn on Moana when I need a few minutes of space, lol.

Thank you! When living it, it's not difficult to show the spoils of war, haha.
One more verse,
To finish the curse,
Thanks for entering the contest.
I fear it too late, for the curse is already upon me, haha. Thank you for delighting. I'm hoping to do this more.
This nomination can wait until the weekend...
Every night when we tell our two year old it's time for bed, he protests with the suggestion. "I go car?"
I'm so very tired. :)
Lol. Somehow, "bed" is kid-talk for "everything except sleep".
beautiful! So much truth.
Thank you! It's good to share the woes of parenthood so we can commiserate together.
I particularly appreciate the wry humor :-)
This was good. I lold more than once.

LOL! Kids, fur-kids... all the same for attention. They know when you're at your most vulnerable. Happy to have you laughing. Thanks, Neg!
Ha! Yes!
Ow adult, spawner of spawns, keep at it!
Lol. Spawner of spawns. Love it. Thanks, Noby!
Nice finish! You made me smile on a morning when I needed it. THanks!
Thanks! And you're welcome. Glad to have invoked a smile.
hehehehh, this was good.
Thank you, Speedy! :p

Lol. Disney saving parents' sanity since forever. Glad you enjoyed it, Rose! I wish I could say having another spawn to have them play helps...
Yes I was never as truly grateful for Disney as I have been as a parent! Hahaha!
