I found this poem which i'm going to put by my front door, thought it sounded quite welcoming.
WELCOME TO OUR HOME
Some houses try to hide the fact that children shelter there,
Ours boasts of it quite openly, the signs are everywhere,
For smears are on the windows, little smudges on the door,
I should apologise I guess for toys shrewn on the floor,
But I sat down with the children and we played and laughed and read,
And if the windows do not shine, their eyes will shine instead.

I have that poem too - I have it pinned to my front door and I read it to remind me when I am having a "bad" day mine ends slightly different
Its called
Excuse This House!
Some houses try to hide the fact
that children shelter there
Ours boasts of it quite openly
the signs are everywhere
For smears are on the windows
little smudges on the doors
I guess I should apologise
for the toys strewn on the floor
But I sat down with the children
and we played and laughed and read
and if the doorbell doesn't shine
their eyes will shine instead
For when at times I'm forced to choose
the hard job or the kinder
I want to have a tidy house
BUT I'M HAPPILY A CHILDMINDER!

Thank you.
I usually mumble something like ' sorry its a mess we've been playing' as we pick our way through the cardboard and cellotape.
This poem says how I feel. Copied it and pasted it onto word included a lovely cartoon picture of three children and surrounded it with a lovely boarder. Looks brill. Thanks so much.
