Ode To Target

Honestly, I am so worn out...and I can't seem to form a thought that makes any sense. And I want to write about sooo much...the joys and struggles that make up who we are right now...oh, and the humor :).

But for now, I just want to laugh at the fact that I am actually embarrassed when the clerks at Target see us coming - because we are there a few mornings a week due to our new school schedule. Have I ever mentioned that our school is to far away to actually drive back home while they're there? It is. So my younger girls and I frequent the local Targets, Chickfilas, and parks...I know, we are really exciting - try to contain yourself.

Anyway...

So I wrote this about Target - I almost kept my sunglasses on today when we walked through the doors so they didn't know I was there...yet again...

The morning is crazy,
And the babies are tired.
I’m needing some coffee,
And my 3yr olds are wired.

Off in the distance,
There is a small sign of hope.
That big Red bulls eye,
That always helps me cope.

The doors pull open,
And there’s a feeling of peace.
Target and Starbucks,
“Mommy, your favorite!” says Reese.

Your deals draw me in,
Like a new wide eyed pup.
And now there is the new Target brand,
The affordable, Up & Up.

I try to stay focused,
Stay true to my list.
But we all know the holiday candy aisle,
Can never be missed.

I cruise the end of the aisles,
Where the best deals are found,
“Perimeter shopping”,
I am red sticker bound.

So off to the checkout,
Where the cashiers know us well.
Do you love Target like we do?
Oh please, do tell!
