I love, love being a housewife
I love, LOVE being a housewife is a sentance from my heart that I say silently.. usually in the evenings when schooling studies are completed, dinner was devored and my children are starting to settle down..my home is neat, not perfect but neat. Candles glow and the scent is filling the air. window blinds are open showing us the sun is slowly going down.. this is my moment..i love being a house wife. To too many the title is demeaning..no paycheck, no self worth. And at one point I can honestly say i gave in and felt the same way. But God has opened my eyes and my heart and showed me the right path, for me. I love the quest for being a woman of God.. supporting my husband, being joyful to him, praising him for his hard work. My heart swells and my soul is completely happy when I am teaching my three brown eyed babies. I love caring for my children.. today i had one on one time with jayce my youngest.. he was dirty from playing outside so i suggested a warm bath..he was thrilled. i ran him a warm bubbly bath and gently washed the dirt away..it was a sweet moment, he was playing with his orange dinosaur and smiling at my complete attention on him. I loved it! I know God is opening my eyes more and more, convicting me to be a stay at home mom, homeschooling and number one showing them to lean on HIM, to live in breath in HIM..give thanks, be joyful and pray. I have so much to learn but finally feel like for once I am on the right path. What a great feeling! Its important to me that I am teaching my children so they will not be searching for their purpose in adulthood..i pray my childrens talents will be revealed and if you do not have the Holy Spirit within you then you will always feel lost. I will be blogging soon about raising boys and raising girls. Its old fashion but HE is guiding me!

Wonderful blog. It may be "old fashioned" but a lot of what the Lord places on our hearts is old fashioned and I love that you are embracing motherhood and being a housewife, too. Sometimes it simply cannot be put into words or explained to outsiders who do not feel the same way...but I think your blog really gives a glimpse of the joys being a housewife. It has great eternal rewards as well, the only thing you can take to Heaven is your family, if they are saved. Isn't that a thought worth cherishing throughout the day or when doubts creep in? xoxo
