Time for Bed

Time for Bed

A bowl of cereal
Time for counting sheep
I hear the sound of my children's feet
Good night Mom yelled down the hall
Go to sleep darlings light's on in the hall.
Nodding my head as I drift off to sleep
Lord keep us safe with no tears to weep.
Just when I think my day's finally done.
Into my room burst my only son
Can't sleep Mommy I need one last kiss
Next thing I knew there's noise in the hall
The other two come join us into my bed
they all crawl.
Oh what I wouldn't do 
For one moments peace
I kiss they all and then we all fall
Asleep.
No room in the bed
As I hang on tight
Wishing you all a
Peaceful Good Night
