Haikus About Childrearing

It is 3 a.m.
She wails from the next room
My head bangs the wall
_________

Tomorrow morning
Will be without fights and screams
Or possibly not
_________

Please pick up your toys
Pick them up right now or else
Aargh! Legos are sharp
_________

Independent cuss
Or strong and willful leader
Please remind me which
_________

Pajama cuddles
The smell of clean hair and skin
I love my children
