I AM A HOMEMAKER........


I've received an e-mail with an actual ad from the 1950's in which it gave the proper ways of being a good wife, and in reading it, I found out I was born possibly a few decades too late. I read the list of things one must do to fulfill the role of a good wife, and yes I do qualify as doing most of them. I do have to say, for my defense, that being a homemaker, wife and mother is the most awesome job I could have ever done. This incredible journey I have been so lucky to travel has given me more "human" experiences than any job could ever have given me. I have no shame in saying I'm a stay at home mom, and people might find it difficult to believe, that it's the most rewarding thing a mom could ever do. In my experience and because of my personality I couldn't have been doing anything better with my life, than caring for my home, my husband and my children. I've seen my children go from little babies.....cooing at me and looking at me with eyes so full of love, to the amazing young persons they are today. I have instilled in my children all the values and morals I thought necessary to be a good person in this world, and I constantly see that come through, and I'm proud to say.........I did it my way. I made all the difference in my children's life. NO I won't take all the credit, just maybe some big chunk of it, all the rest does go to the amazingly wise man God put in my life. So as I read that article that nowadays causes laughter in many, since the roles have changed and now "men" are the ones catering to the women, which by the way I would like to know what happened along the way that men became something less than women, they were made to be less deserving than women, and are constantly paying the consequences of something that sent the feminist off the wall. Poor men, they are made to act like women, helping around the house doing chores, cooking, and then the women turn around and demand that they be a "man", how in the world can they be a man when they have been made to be a "she-man". I apologize to all those men out there and say to them, you are getting the short end of the stick because of someone else's fault, you are greatness and you deserve to be treated as such. Men and women are equal and deserve the same amount of respect and care. Sorry men, someone screwed it for you all........who? I don't know. Can't we all just get along and love each other completely? without reservations and out of this world expectations. Love is all we need.
