I love this post, Dispelling Myths About Homemaking.
All I ever wanted to do when I grew up was be a mother. I would read those books about people having a dozen children, and having this well organized and well run house, where everyone helped and things ran along like a train on a track.
Then, I went to college, got married and found myself with one child to raise and no more desire to have a dozen, (two or three would be nice), and the train derailed before it got out of the station.
But, I still didn't want to do anything besides by a mother, and I am coming to realize that being a mother, and homemaker is the greatest career on earth. It is the homemakers that make a home beautiful and comforting. It is the mothers that raise up the children who will continue our world.
Now if that isn't an important job, I don't know what is!!.
