Homemaking is the way to change the world!
It absolutely is! 🧡 I love your content!
I love your content! @ThisMamasFaith, You are one of my inspirations for the Day In My Life videos that I’ve just started to make!
I never wanted a career either. I always dreamed of being married to my best friend and having my family! I was so blessed by God to find my husband at 15, he was 17 and we’ve been together ever since! We have 4 kids and 10 grandchildren, time has just flown by! We worked hard, my husband went to nursing school after our kids were born. We didn’t have the fanciest house or the most stylish clothes but we got by. I worked part time at times but mostly I was home. I recognize that not every woman has the option of being a SAHM, I was very blessed and I know it!
I love that! What a beautiful love story! We are definitely blessed to be homemakers and stay at home moms! Thank you for sharing🧡
Nobody asked you
I never thought I wanted to be a mother and homemaker. Spent 10 year chasing other people’s values and getting absolutely no satisfaction or fulfilment out of it and falling into severe depression, also losing my connection to God. Fast forward and I’m 35 with 2 beautiful sons; living what had become my dream life of being with my kids and providing a safe, comforting place for my husband. It is a blessing and I have never been happier ❤ all glory to God 🙏🏼
Ohh I love that so much! Isn’t it beautiful how God calls us back home?! What a beautiful thing, to be able to take care of the home and your kids 🧡
I’ve always wanted to have a career and never thought I would have to be a SAHM. We decided that me working while paying for daycare (that’s not cheap) didn’t make sense, no matter how much I wanted to be out of the house and work. I’m not the one who loves being a SAHM so I’ve started a small business since our first was a newborn and working from home when I have time while still being a SAHM, was the best balance. We are all different, you gotta find that happy balance where you are happy as a mom. I get depressed when all I do is chores all day and watch the kids, I need that creative work “fix”. I see some other moms that absolutely love being a homemaker and not work, and that’s totally awesome!
Oh I totally understand what you are saying! I absolutely love being a homemaker, but one of the reasons I started this channel is because I wanted to do something (work from home) beside it as well. I have worked as a homemaker for the entire 5 years and I think it’s amazing to use your talents and gifts like that. As long as we make sure our priority is and will be our family and our home, working can be a great way to keep ourselves busy.
That’s encouraging. Being a homemaker is hard work and probably the most important jobs we can have.
Absolutely! Hard but so important and beautiful🧡
I am manifesting my transition into stay home mum/wife.
Yess! 🙌🏻🧡
Beautifully and eloquently explained. Thank you for creating high-quality future husbands!
Yes I love being a homemaker. My dream was to be a mom and a wife as well 💕 as be a singer,actress,dancer singer,artist basically an entertainer. Love how relatable and real your conversion was. ❤
Thank you so much! Being a mom and a homemaker is truly such a beautiful things, isn’t it 🧡
@@stephanie-algra yes, not a mom yet. Well I do have a fur puppy. But tending to my husband and home makes me so happy. 💕🌸
So good. Thank you for sharing. Love the heart behind your “why”. Great job, mama.
Thank you so much!
It's not a easy thing to work outside especially for an introvert who values privacy you also have to deal with rude people who are strangers No time for you hobbies just work work work not sure if i want that or not
Yes it can be hard to work outside the home as an introvert!
Hi, I would like to hear your experiences and steps on how you started homeschooling, especially because it is not common here in the Netherlands. I myself work part-time and my children deliberately go to a small-scale Reformed school where the emphasis is on faith and how children live according to God's word. but I'm curious what the home teaching (curriculum) is like.
Hi! It’s definitely a very hard road to follow in the Netherlands, so if you want to go that route I’d suggest doing a ton of research. It’s such a case specific and long answer I can’t possibly help through YT comments. But it’s such a beautiful journey!
As for curriculum; we use an American curriculum and I teach them in English (I am a secondary school teacher in English by profession). So that’s not super helpful either, lol. But doing daily devotionals with the kids, reading tons of books etc is our daily practice. I have a day in the life video on here as well which you might enjoy! :)
Well said. Peace be with you.🙏🌿
Thank you! Same to you🧡
I’m a SAHM as well! I have 4 children under 5 years old. I’m American but my husband is British and we live in the UK. I’ve just started a blog and UA-cam channel which will hopefully bring in an income at some point.
I want all the same things you talk about in this video!
I love that! We are not even that far from each other (I live in the Netherlands!) praying your blog and YT will take off soon and bring in that income! 🧡
@@stephanie-algra I appreciate that so much.
I’ve never been any farther than a couple of hours from Milton Keynes.
If you’re ever this way, let me know!
Wjat about if you just are? Its not my choice. I have bo other choice. The worst choice..... my choice? Choice is free will....
I’d suggest watching other videos on my channel about how important homemaking is 🧡
Just subscribed. Absolutely love your vibe and your lobe for God x
Thank you so much!! Glad you’re here. Welcome! 🧡 God bless you!
What’s your citizenship? How do you homeschool. I really want to do it in the Netherlands
I am Dutch! It is possible in the Netherlands. I’d recommend to look up the fb group: ‘thuisonderwijs voor geïnteresseerde’ they can help you with any question you have😊

Welcome! Thanks for being here😘
I never ever wanted and never wish to be Mom have kids and stay home. I wanted career. Work. Have my own place and travel. I did studied all I wanted. Bought my place. I have a child and been raising on my own her Dad never supported we were married got divorce. I re married. I have my child and have responsabilities. I would like to stay home. However, I need to earn income. If I could find a way to earn income online from home I would.
Isn't it amazing how we are all so different?! But I totally see that not everybody can be a sahm, although I think there are ways for more women to make it work for them too. My last video is about how I make it work to be a sahm on one average income, maybe you would like to watch that video too
