I Guess I Can

I didn't think I could possibly go through our morning routine after a late night of work and before a return to work. But I had to, so I guess I can.

I didn't think I could make all the appointments and make all the phone calls and make all the lunches. But I had to, so I guess I can.

I didn't think I could cover all the bases, make at least some hits, and field balls from every direction. But I had to, so I guess I can.

I didn't think I could handle new schedules and new tasks and new expectations. But I had to, so I guess I can.

I didn't think I could manage parenting new ages, understanding new grades, navigating new schools. But I had to, so I guess I can.

Every day, we are called upon to face the new, the different, the challenging, the scary. Sometimes, it's too much. But more often than not, we make it work. So I guess we can.
