Stepford wife… or Proverbs 31 woman?

“Do you feel like a Stepford wife?”

That’s the question Courtney from Women Living Well received when she talked about homemaking and husband-serving on a radio program.

She responded to the question in an encouraging vlog that I hope you’ll take the time to watch. It’s a good reminder that we stay-at-home wives and moms shouldn’t feel ashamed for what we’re doing, as if it’s somehow less valuable than what we could be doing.

(By posting this, I am not saying that the only way to be a true Proverbs 31 woman is to be a stay-at-home mom. I’m sure that’s not what Courtney means either. But it is very encouraging for those of us whom God has called to be at home for our families right now.)

I loved her video… I adore her. Thanks for posting this. :-)

I know, Courtney is such an inspiration. I was really glad I found her blog.

That was encouraging! Thanks for sharing this.
