The Joy of Motherhood is....
Discovering the "spitty" stain on your shirt after you already left the house and don't have time to go back and change clothes.
The three minute dinner you sit down to every night after preparing food for everyone else in the family.
Walking around like a Zombie in the futile search for those lost hours of sleep.
Living room land mines that ignite with the sound of squeaking toys during midnight milk runs.
The one trickle of water you get in the shower when everyone else decides they need to jump in too.
Zoning out to "Baby Einstein" for the third time in a row, and realizing you could have been watching something else for the last half-hour because everyone is asleep.
Mastering the art of scooping up two babies at one time without knocking their heads together.
Ignoring the dust bunnies that are breeding under your bed and the cob webs that are slowly taking over your house.
The running joke with your husband: "Let's put the kids to bed early and put in a movie tonight".
Watching your husband play with the kids and knowing there's no place he would rather be.
Giving thousands of kisses every day because you know someday those kisses might not be so welcome.
Looking into the clear, innocent eyes of a toddler and feeling one step closer to Heaven.
