"Mothers who know create a climate for spiritual and temporal growth in their homes. Another word for nurturing is homemaking. Homemaking includes cooking, washing clothes and dishes, and keeping an orderly home."
sigh.... this is where I KNOW I fall short. But I also KNOW that when the house is clean, I am a much happier mother. And when I am a happier mother my children are happier. And when we are all happier then the spirit is much more abundant. I do KNOW that. It's just hard to do it day after day. And it seems that after I clean the house and take a break to relax, I turn around a moment later and it looks like a disaster again. But I will keep trying. Because I do KNOW.
"Nurturing mothers are knowledgeable, but all the education women attain will avail them nothing if they do not have the skill to make a home that creates a climate for spiritual growth. Growth happens best in a 'house of order.' Nurturing requires organization, patience, love, and work."
Phew! --- now I can breathe. I sure love a Clean Kitchen!
Now I just need to tackle this! --------->>
