My name is Brandy and I am a stay-at-home mom. Blessed with an amazing husband & two precious children. I strive to live each day serving the Lord & my family. At times my day is crazy & chaotic but in the end, I would not change a thing about it. Like I said before... I am BLESSED!
What does the bible say about a wife & mother?
Timothy 5:14, "So I counsel younger widows to marry, to have children, to manage their homes and to give the enemy no opportunity for slander."
Proverbs 31: 27 She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. 28 Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.
What is the technical definition of a stay-at-home mom? According to www.wikipedia.com -A stay-at-home mom (alternatively, stay at home mother, house mom, or SAHM), is a term used to describe a mother who is the main caregiver of the children and is the main homemaker of the household. I kind of like the sound of that. I am the main caregiver of my children and the homemaker of my house. Kind of an important job if you ask me. According to mom.salary.com, the time mothers spend performing 10 typical job functions would equate to an annual salary of $117,867 for a stay-at-home mom. What are those 10 typical job functions? You could list hundreds of job titles but these are the ones I claim (and in no particular order):
- Housekeeper
- Teacher
- Nurturer
- Soccer Mom
- Cook & personal chef
- Alarm clock
- Facilities Manager
- Chauffeur
- Referee
- Laundry Machine Operator
- Janitor
- Chief Executive Officer
- Boo boo kisser
- Band-aid sticker
- Vet Technician
- Meal Planner
- Personal Shopper
- Groomer
- Appt Setter
