The BRATitudes
Blessed are the caretakers,
For their strength be replenished daily.
Blessed are the stressed,
For they are not alone in the fight.
Blessed are the potty trained children,
For they finally save the household money.
Blessed are the overstimulated,
For they shall soon be comforted.
Blessed are those who must restrain themselves,
For bad behavior doesn’t last always.
Blessed are those who see a mirror of themselves,
For this should promote introspection.
Blessed are the ones who persevere,
For this builds stamina and long suffering.
Blessed are the growing pains of brats and their attitudes,
For on the other side is joy and peace.

Blessed is the poet who penned this!
Laughing still: “Blessed are the potty trained children,
For they finally save the household money.”
Thank you for reading and sharing in my humor. I’m thoroughly glad my toddler is finally helping save the household some money!
Love this. A lesson for all of us.
Yes, and I’m living this lesson now. This toddler stage can definitely be a doozy.
“Blessed are the growing pains of brats and their attitudes.” Hahaha! Best line ever in an effective structure. Great word choices, rhythm. Terrific work. Blessed are the caretakers…” for sure.
Thank you so much for reading and responding. This caretaker is tired of my toddler’s ‘tude, but I know this too, shall pass.
