A wagging tail and a little wet nose,
My fuzzy slippers and some hot cocoa,
The fireplace flickering, warming the den,
It’s so very good to be home again!
Back where I can put my feet on the chairs,
Without the bother of questioning stares,
I can breathe easy in my big, soft clothes
And forget the day’s work and all its woes.
Fixing to fix dinner there on the stove -
When it is ready, they’ll all come in droves!
Round the table we’ll grab hands and say “grace.”
How I thank God for this most special place-
Home!

About danardoyle
I am a Catholic, working wife and mother. I have three children ages 7, 14 and 21. I am extremely busy, as you can imagine. I aim each and every day to put God first in my life, to teach my children the Faith, to be a supportive spouse, keep the house in order, and do my job outside of the home well, too. That's an impossible task - without Divine intervention! Here, I hope to share my triumphs and struggles with other working moms in the same boat. I will share the tools I have discovered to making it all work - most days!
