The Value of Full-Time Moms
Purpose-Oriented To-Do List
Does your to-do list look like this? This list reflects not only the tasks that a full-time mom accomplishes during the day, but also her reasons for doing them and her long-term goals as a mother.
Read to Austin to expand his imagination and comprehension skills.
Help Erica with her homework to assist with her education.
Take Anne to the library so she can complete her school project.
Take Evan to piano lessons to develop his musical talents.
Teach Austin how to match shapes.
Wash four loads of laundry to take care of my familys physical needs.
Prepare breakfast to give my children a nutritional start to the day.
Clean up the kitchen to take care of the home God has given me.
Cook dinner to give my family the opportunity to sit, talk and be refreshed.
Rethink what you do and why you do it. Some of your list items cannot be done just with quality time. They also take quantities of time. The value of being there for our children in simple ways can never be underestimated.
