Inside The Brain of a Homemaker

Introduction

Just a bit about myself. I have a wonderful husband who is faithful and loves God. I have three boys ages 6, 3, and 1. I stay home with my children. I have strong feelings about certain subjects. Today I want to mention just a few.
1. God lives and is very much involved in our lives, if we will let him .
2. Families are better off if the mother stays home with the children and the husband provides.
3. Society would be better if women would realize the importance of raising a child and would devote themselves to this endever.
4. Raising a family will give a person more satisfaction than any coorperate job could.
5. One of the greatest sorrows we can experience is to see our children in pain and one of the greatest joys we will ever experience is to see our children succeed and be happy.
6. It is worth the effort and devotion to the family and home because, in the end, it is only the people we love who will be there for us and it is them who will matter to us.
7. Don’t sell yourself short with a career in the corporate world. Your talents and intelligence will be more beneficial to the world by creating a child who will contribute to society and make a difference in this world and then, in turn, will raise their children to be good people and down the line into eternity. The efforts and results of homemaking continue after we have left this world.

Another thing about me is that I had a scholarship to Pharmacy School and turned it down so I could be closer to the man of my dreams (my future husband). I have not regretted that for one moment. I love my life. I love my husband. My husband and I love being together and I believe that is, in large part, because I make our home a calm, peaceful, happy place to be. I am kind to him. I am good to him. I make time for him. He wants to be home. He treats me with kindness and respect and listens to my opinions.

I work hard at my job. I wake up early. I am primarily responsible for the nurture of our children. I devote myself to them. I have never been a homebody. I have always been extraverted. I was Student Body Vice President in high school. I was a state swimming champion two years in a row and have several school records. I have always been a straight "A" student. I graduated with highest honors with my Bachelors of Science. I love to read. I love to learn. And being a mother has stretched my abilities more than any other job could. I use everything I have ever learned to do my job as a homemaker. It is a challenge, but so extremely rewarding.
