...reminds me of how our kids can sometimes be just as exasperating as the duck in the song...but we parents still love them all the same!
Helen Steiner Rice, a famous poet, wrote:
"A mother's love is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking, it never fails or falters, even though the heart is breaking."
I hope I remember this when my kids annoy me endlessly and drive me up the wall, when my nerves are on edge and my voice hoarse from spewing out threats, and when I veer dangerously towards acts of violence...if I were the lemonade stand guy in the song I might end up eating the duck!!
