I have always said that I need to work at least a couple times a week for my own sanity-to get away and socialize and do the job that I love. I know I will love being a mom, but I am sure it is the toughest job ever. It is so wonderful that you are able to stay at home and do so much with your girls-it is definitely a blessing;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27050556.post-45108735483375185692007-03-26T19:38:00.000-05:002007-03-26T19:38:00.000-05:00I don't know how you doctors wives do it!!

It truly is the most important job we can do. What I love about the blogging world is that it puts us in touch with other women all over the country who are talented, smart, contributing stay-at-home moms. I am reminded each and every day how FABULOUS we stay-at-home moms are!!<BR/><BR/>I love the picture of you and your daughters in the blue bonnets!!Kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02216730047200130420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27050556.post-49238421674021862352007-03-26T17:36:00.000-05:002007-03-26T17:36:00.000-05:00oh angie, i have tears from this post. you are so ...oh angie, i have tears from this post. you are so right. the testimony is so right. <BR/><BR/>i have found myself putting the just in front of a mom sometimes but i am so much more confident about it now but if i am being honest, it is still a struggle somedays when i see scott gaining more and more professional kudos, while I know I am not. Or even with my college friends moving up in their careers...WE have such an important job but it isn't always valued and that stinks.<BR/><BR/>You are so right on the point that we are lucky to be home and we are doing the toughest job in the world. 100% correct on that. and our perks far outweigh any perks of the "working" world. thank you for taking time to write this...carlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01116230992853320714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27050556.post-59991325588671510272007-03-26T14:41:00.000-05:002007-03-26T14:41:00.000-05:00Great post!

Aren't you so glad you were there? Do you ever wonder what you miss when you're not there?<BR/><BR/>It's hard not feel like you're "just a mom" when the world wants us to define ourselves with other labels, but we know that's the important job we can do and that Satan is doing everything he can to ruin families. My sister Robyn has a great post about this right now, you might want to check out her blog too.<BR/>http://robynakenhead.blogspot.com/2007/03/talk-prep.htmlJillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09032420498045893374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27050556.post-57708092537593251692007-03-25T21:55:00.000-05:002007-03-25T21:55:00.000-05:00Hi Angie,I've been a lurker for some time now and ...Hi Angie,<BR/>I've been a lurker for some time now and I need to comment! First, love your blog, love how honest you are and I think your girls are darling! <BR/><BR/>I loved this post... I have a 10 month old daughter, so this mommy thing is new to me. I do have a degree and worked for a few years and I can tell you that NOTHING compares to being a mother -- it is the greatest calling in life and I wouldn't trade it for anything. Thank you for sharing your testimony. :)Christenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08151343293160831020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27050556.post-37257837252445457342007-03-25T19:51:00.000-05:002007-03-25T19:51:00.000-05:00Angie, what a beautiful post.

I also think is it the hardest job, but it is also the best job. I just read a wonderful story in the April Ensign today. It is called “Mother Come Home”. I think every mother to read it.<BR/> I hope you have a great Sunday!donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03858188956344855110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27050556.post-58513628211997706302007-03-25T18:56:00.000-05:002007-03-25T18:56:00.000-05:00I thought testimony meeting was good today too.

And I was majorly impressed Maci got up so confident and did such a great job bearing her little sweet testimony.<BR/><BR/>Hey, I have a degree and it's pretty much been useless (since I haven't ever needed it) Thanks for the reminder on motherhood. It's by far the hardest job I think I could ever do--and the pay is priceless. How could you ever put an amount on hugs, kisses and the sayings they do?jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13344577469992088528noreply@blogger.com
