Love Well.....

And after the day is done.....
The last toy has been picked up.....
The last dish has been washed and stacked in the drainer....
The last load of laundry thrown in the dryer....
The last scattered socks and undies have been picked up...
The last cookie crumb wiped away....
The last piece of mail opened......
The last wet towel picked off the bathroom floor....
The last child tucked in bed......


Did I love my children well?
Did I do as much lovin' on them as much as yellin at them?
Did I teach them as much as they taught me?
Did I listen to them even though they didn't listen to me?
Did I thank God enough for all the small peaceful moments?


Am I resting in His promises that tomorrow really is a new day
and I can try, try again??


Did I love well?
