The priorities of a mother

Can you identify with this?
Excuse This House
author unknown
Some houses try to hide the fact
That children shelter there;
Ours boasts of it quite openly;
The signs are everywhere.
For smears are on the windows,
Little smudges on the doors;
I should apologize I guess,
For toys strewn on the floor.
But I sat down with the children,
And we played and laughed and read;
And if the doorbell doesn’t shine,
Their eyes will shine instead.
For when at times I’m forced to choose
the one job or the other;
I want to be a housewife,
but first I’ll be a mother.
