In a different way than I believe you intended, this post spoke volumes to me today. I AM living your dream. And the funny thing is, I’m always looking at career gals like you wishing I was that. Isn’t it funny how we do that? The grass really does seem greener on the other side.

God is teaching me that He HAS given me the most important job on earth. To raise up the next generation of leaders, right here in my own home. And I will learn to be content with the task He has priviledged me with. I am determined to stop looking outside my widow panes longingly. I am going to keep my eyes and heart focused inward. Towards my home, children, and husband. Because THEY are where I’ve been called. And there’s no shame at all in that.

Your post reminded me of the true nobility in what I do everyday. Even though most days it feels so unimportant and unappreciated. Thank you for that.

I pray that one day, your dream comes true!

Buy the apron now. The babies will come at the right time. The time God has planned. But buy the apron now. ;-)

You have reminded me how lucky I am to be home with my babies. You have reminded me how much I take it for granted. You have reminded me that I can be better. Thank you. ;-)

My heart is heavy for you b/c I know your story and how much you want to be a mom. You are going to be a continual prayer for me. I want your belly to be huge! :D :lol:

I’m almost embarrassed to admit my dream was the lawyer/career woman on the fast track! Then I met and fell in love with Jacob and I’m sure God had his hand on this the entire time and knew my real love/job/career would be a stay at home mom. I fought it hard for awhile, always living in regret or wishing I were doing something else, but now I have fallen in love with it and thank God for a wonderful husband with a great job who makes it possible to stay home with my munchkins!

My dream/prayer now is that I would be the perfect mom for all of my kids. Not over extending them and over involving them in activities, but finding that balance. Also that they would come to know Jesus as Jacob & I do and live a life in Him.

My prayers are for you to have the same opportunity with a baby. Stay at home moms have the most important job in the world, and that’s coming from a dad.

To be a stay at home mom to 4 or 5 beautiful kids. It actually pans me that I have to work (even though its part time).

From one dreamer to another; I pray your dream comes true very soon

and i know you will be phenomenal at it!!!

And the sahm, the world’s greatest profession….
