DAILY SNACK

It was a few weeks ago now.

But remembering it makes me smile.

We were on our way out,

This younger childless woman and myself,

But I wanted to top off L’il I’s bottle of breastmilk.

“Can you wait a few minutes?

I just need to see if I can squeeze out another ounce or two.”

I pulled out my little hand pump,

And did just that.

Slowly. Painstakingly.

“Oh my God. That is the slowest thing I have ever seen!”

There’s probably a reason nobody tells you about these things before you have children.
