Open Letter To The Mom Who Feels Unimportant

My Glamorous Mom Life

People seem to have forgotten the important role we as mom’s play, they seem to think we aren’t needed very much or we don’t “do” anything. I guess they think we just live this “glamorous” life or something? ;)

 

What I’m getting at is, no matter what anyone says, YOU are important and your role is just as important. Sure, most of us stay at home with our kids and don’t “have a job”, (come on, our job is 24\7 no sick time or pregnancy leave) but I believe the best “job” we have is motherhood. Our children need us to be here and teach them, play with them, and care for them. Our children are to be raised by us, not anyone else, that’s why we are called Mother. We mother them, feed them, teach them, show them, change their dirty little diapers, sing to them, give them a love they can’t find anywhere else.

 

So, the next time someone asks what you “do” and they give you “the look” when you tell them you take care of your children, just smile. Be proud of what you do, there’s no one else as qualified as YOU to raise YOUR children. Don’t get lost in feeling like you aren’t doing anything with your life, you’re raising our next generation, your teaching and bringing up (hopefully) warriors for God! That’s the best most important thing you could do. That’s who are. Not, if you work in an office or design clothes, that stuff doesn’t define us.

 

The next time someone remarks that you have all the time in the world, and that you don’t do anything all day, just smile. Tell them aaallllllll about your “glamorous mom life”. I’m sure they won’t make that same remark the next time. ;) Just be proud of who you are as mother, and don’t let anyone make you think differently. Sure there are days we just simply are lazy and don’t do much, but I guarantee you, that you still take care your children, you still fix them food and clean them and help them. Even our lazy days are filled with work. Lol.

 

If you’re still feeling like you want something to do, something that’s your project, find something like jewelry making, or painting, makeup, designing clothes, ect. And do that from home. I know there are a lot of women who want to work and do more than mothering but still be the one with their children. There are so many things you can do now a days and still be with your kids. If that’s what it takes to give you more confidence as a mother, go for it. Show the world that you CAN be the one to raise your kids and STILL “work”.

 

Keep being glamorous and always remember Proverbs 31,

Carlee, The Glamorous Mom.
