-committed to the priority of raising your children yourself
-part of a marriage, which obviously provides 2 parents
-willing to sacrifice some opportunities for the sake of family
-willing to "do without" many things- but not family time and attention
-not willing to compromise on your conviction, no matter how pressed you get by circumstances
I love how neatly she puts it. This system wouldn't work without a husband and is a commitment that involves a lot of sacrifice. My favorite part here is willing to do without many things but not family time and attention. That just sums up being a stay-at-home mom so perfectly. I love it.
After all "Family, isn't it about time?!"

I heart Dr. Laura. I'm glad you are enjoying the book! I loved it!
Jen, I just discovered you started this blog-I love it! I'm going to be a regular reader for sure. It's nice to hear such words of encouragement and inspiration from someone I consider a good friend, someone who is "real". It makes the encouragement you offer so much easier to take and implement because I know someone real like me is struggling, but pressing forward with faith too. Thanks!
