A Lucky Role
By Dionna Sanchez

"What do you do?" Do you ever get tired of that question? Do you ever wish you had a better answer?

We choose to stay home (most of us) and yet we can't help but feel inhibited about telling others. Why do we feel this way? Is it because we live in a society that devalues the role of a mother?

A mom is the most important role you will ever take. It's a thankless job sometimes, and you will be taken for granted often….but you will be influencing a whole new generation by the morals and values you instill in your children and the domino effect those qualities have on everyone who comes into contact with them.

Not only that - but there are fun things to consider about staying home.
A homemaker can choose what she wants to wear, and what style her environment will be. Most of all, she can impact little people with her opinions, thoughts and values.

It's time we start feeling proud to have the luckiest and most important role of all, a position that affects lives for years to come. There's nothing in the world that will ever come close to the feeling you get inside knowing you impacted another life.

If we start enjoying what we have and where we are in life, more women will look at us and want to experience the happiness that they see inside of our hearts. We need to start reflecting that inner happiness by holding our heads high and letting the pride we feel internally - radiate from us externally.
