I'm just finishing up birthday season around here. One more party, then it's fall! In the last three weeks, Amy turned 12, Michael turned 14, and Emily is now sweet sixteen and never been kissed. I just like my kids. My oldest, Matthew, is 22. He's out on his own now, but calls and comes by often. It's been so neat to have the privilege of being with my children as their personalities and interests develop. I wouldn't trade being a stay-at-home mom for anything. I never made a paycheck that was worth the relationships I have with my four children.
Thank you Lowell!
Thank you God!
Laura
Thankful to be Momma
P.S. Big myth, your husband has to make a lot of money if you're going to stay home. Truth, you have to stretch your money if you're going to stay home.
Hi Laura you sound as if you had a wonderful family time - such periods are opportunities to bond with those we love. You are an inspiration Laura and I just love reading your posts. Have a wonderful weekend with your gorgeous family

Hi Dorothy,
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking time to talk back to me. It's a great encouragement. I'll be over for a visit soon. It seems I don't have much time for reading or writing right now.

My mom's time spent as a stay-at-home mom was very influential in the close bonds my sister and I have with her. I am 39, and I spend every Saturday almost with my mother. I think being an adult makes me appreciate her even more... Thank you, Lord, for my mom!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your love for your family!!!
Love,
Heather
Oh Heather, that just makes me happy to know. I pray that will be the case with my children and I. Blessings,
