You da Mama

When she is screaming and feet flying...
...I'm da Mama

When her mouth is sore from teeth prying...
...I'm da Mama

When she has been up for 12 hours straight...
...I'm da Mama

When her diaper is full and cannot wait...
...I'm da Mama

When she has to have milk and her brow is furrowed...
...I'm da Mama

When I got to get papers graded, an article read...
...I'm da Mama

When she need to be feed...
...I'm da Mama

When I got groceries to unload, dishes to wash, a call to make...
...I'm da Mama

When she make that soft cry, that I know is fake...
...I'm da Mama

When she don't sleep, fights a nap, and drops off noddin' in my lap...
...I'm da Mama

When she sit on my lap and watch my fingers as I type...
...I'm da Mama

When we lay on the bed and roll over on our tummies...
...I'm da Mama

When we stand outside and watch the sky above...
I feel so much love. I hold her. I hug her. I keep her tight.
I'm da Mama.
