Do you know how we say things like "We'll laugh about this some day" or "This will be one of those things we look back on and laugh?" Why does it have to take years before we can see the humor in a situation with our kids? Instead of waiting until we can detach and look back with humor, it might be healthier for us to try to find a little something funny in what is happening in the moment. This doesn't mean that we do not take things seriously or that we make light of potentially dangerous situations, but find a moment to laugh and find something funny-the way your daughter put her hands on her hips or the words your son said or even the kooky chain of events that led up to the problematic situation. Find something funny and it will make it all more manageable.
Nearly everyone.. I am kinda short. 
She's fixer of sinks
and drier of tears
Anxious, yet valiant
allayer of fears.
She works a full day
Commutes home, and then
She works another
full-time job, again.
She's master accountant
And counselor, too
She sets aside worries
to listen to you.
There's laundry and cooking
and cleaning to do.
Homework, then bathtime
A story or two.
She's finder of toys
And righter of wrongs.
She's busy. She's tired.
She's lonely. She's strong.
When the day is done,
The kids safely in bed,
No energy's left
for the thoughts in her head.
She turns them all off
along with the lights.
Crawls under covers -
Gives in to the night.
Before the rise of the sun
She be up and back to it.
There's no other option
No one else to do it.
If you, too, know this woman
(she goes by many names)
Applaud her, she belongs to
no ascribed hall of fame.
But a tacit sisterhood,
Arduous like no other,
Of extraordinary women
Also known as Single Mothers.
