God is so amazing:)
I had a bad morning yesterday and let me tell you why!
I went out with my family yesterday to Golden Corral for breakfast and everything was going well until my cousin states that the boots I had on were cute and then started to joke about where I got them and how much I paid for them because my family knows that if I can find a great bargain I will certainly go with that. I mean who wouldn’t? Lol..
However, it was funny for a while then it led from one thing to the next and to make a long story short he said these powerful words… “Oh, you don’t do nothing but stay home with your kids, etc” honestly, he said more but I was so heated I actually forgot what he said. Now this is one of my favorite cousins and he says it a lot, I guess he gets a kick about me being a stay at home mom but I don’t.
I don’t have a strong support system when it comes to me being home with the girls and I know I really don’t need one but it does help to have one sometimes. See a lot of the women in my family had to work (even my grandmother) so I am pretty much the only one in my family who has been afforded the opportunity to stay at home with my girls so it becomes a joke with them but they forget that I have feelings sometimes.
A long time ago I use to be ashamed to tell people what I do now because not to long ago I had a job or 2 or 3:)
BUT last night I was reading a post from my blogger friend Mrs. Tabb’s and let me just say that the frustration I was feeling was lifted immediately. It was like God guided me to this post! So, I will stop rambling now and I want you to head on over and read Reasons you could be a SAHM and allow it to minister to your spirit.
For all SAHM’s out there and to those who will soon be one, read this post and allow it to encourage you as well.
I am a proud stay at home mom and I thank God for choosing me for the Job!

Ahh family, you love 'em and at other times you wish they came from a different blood line! LOL But real talk, I am so glad that you found a source of inspiration and your spirits were lifted because as scripture tells us in Ephesians 4:26: "In your anger do not sin. Do not let the sun go down while you are angry". Girl the enemy would have taken that inch of anger and taken you a mile!!
Keep it Jesus! 🙂
