I came across the site of a mom who sounds a lot like me, and she’s have a haiku writing contest. So here’s my entry. It surprised me how many emotions it dredged up trying to write it – trying to write just a few words about anything (I chose mothering).
Three kiddos of mine.
Where is all the time going?
Slow down; no, speed up!

I don’t know the first thing about poetry. But this made me think about three different things when I read it, so that must mean it’s good!
