Yesterday I saw an article regarding what a stay-at-home mom's value is in terms of salary..........$117,000 per year. Now what do you all think of that? Honestly, I believe there is no way you can put a monetary value on what we mom's do (working or stay at home). It's endless, sometimes thankless, and certainly...priceless.
So for all those times......
you chase a two year old around while trying to get some laundry put away,
you wake in the middle of the night to a coughing, puking, or high fevered child,
you listen to the heartbreak of a girl or boy's first love,
you clean-up and pick-up... not only the kid's underwear, but your husband's too,
you do endless laundry, shopping and cleaning so your family has a nice home,
you volunteer for every school event or field trip,
you cook meals that no one will eat...YUCK..what is this?,
you rock a sick baby whose cries cannot tell you what is wrong with them (ear infection, gas, tired???),
you pack up a family and take them to the beach, park, hotel for some family fun,
you drive them to a friends house every day or a friend comes over every day,
you deliver the forgotten homework assignment, lunch or project,
you have a never ending supply of hugs and kisses,
did you ever think you could love someone so much as your children?
Happy Mother's Day!!!
