Get the dishes done
An ache in my belly
Take a breath
Send it there
It’s too loud in here.
Can you turn down the volume please?
HEY! Turn it down.
Don’t yell, breathe.
Order groceries through the app.
What’s that smell?
OK, diaper change bud!
Get the diaper and wipes ready
A chase ensues around the living room.
Write a poem
Bounce the baby up, down
Arm is cramping
Stopping,
Breathing.
