Mothering ~ No Ordinary Work

"No ordinary work done by a man is either as hard or as responsible as the work of a woman who is bringing up a family of small children; for upon her time and strength demands are made not only every hour of the day but often every hour of the night."
~ Theodore Roosevelt


"Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her."
~ Proverbs 31:28

      Like they say, a man's work is from sun to sun, a woman's work is never done :)

    Hi, JES,
    I am just stopping by to read a bit and to tell you a belated 'Happy Mother's Day'. You share such goodness here on your blog, and I know that many are blessed and encouraged...but that is how seeds are planted :) I pray for you often and hope your week is blessed, friend! Thank you for speaking out on the important things!~ God bless you all :)
