Regrets, I've had a few

You cried at the door when I left you behind
I told you I'll be back soon..daycare is just fine
For my little ones, cause I gotta work
Don't have a choice, one of lifes little quirks

Lies of the world telling momma go make the dough
The kids are alright, just watch another show
Cause momma's too tired, the job took it all
All my breath, all my life.. Feel like I'm gonna fall

But I hang on ..hang on for one more day
looking forward to my time off with my kids to just play
But its shopping and dishes and laudry and bedtime
That day off goes too fast..back to makin that dime

What I'm tryin to say ladies is that doin it all
May be ok for some but I missed my call
To be Mom and a Wife and the keeper of my home
Making my house out of sticks instead of pure stone

The Rock is my foundation, on the Lord I rest my head
Doin the best I can, thats what I have always said
I regret not bein there more for my boy and my girl
Who are my true treasures, more precious than pearls

So a tear goes down my face as I wave goodbye
Off to college you go, I draw a deep sigh
You turned out pretty good if I say so myself
Regrets are fruitless.. and they never ever help

So my love for my kids grows more magnificant each day
I will ponder on each moment and with gratitude I pray
Thank you God,Thank you Jesus, you got my back all of these years
For the rest of our days we have nothing to fear.
