I think that's fascinating. I think you are right- we can all help each other raise our kids without our brains going numb. I think staying home is absolutely my road to sanctification. I have to die to myself and my desires every day. And you will no doubt be just as sharp as ever if you want to get back in the biz full-time. P.S. I'm laughing about the combs- seriously, who keeps those in their pockets except Danny Zuko.Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14441607585776350586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1622905499502694107.post-57783407285584784212009-04-02T19:39:00.000-07:002009-04-02T19:39:00.000-07:00Awesome and so true.

You are a wonderful writer! I want to tahnk you for sending this to me and believe me I am so glad to have you in my life. I could so easy be sweatsuits and ponytails everyday but you inspire me to be cuter!<BR/><BR/>I will say for stay at home moms everywhere, you may think that you are losing your edge however I believe you are sharpening it greatly. The ability to deal with others diplomaticly whether it be a teacher or a three year old is enough to keep anyone sharp. Kids seem to come up with so many new ways to keep you on your toes. The stay at home mommy is to be envied by all because only the strong survive! I myself could not do it and jumped back into the safety of a full time job. I am trying yet again to be the stay at home mom and actually do the cleaning and homework and cooking every night. You can only come up with so many things to do with chicken that everyone likes that isn't a nugget!!! <BR/><BR/>I commend you for your choices and your abilities to do your job looking so fashionable and put together! As iron sharpens iron!!<BR/><BR/>Love, AliciaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1622905499502694107.post-57222796615410901422009-04-02T10:04:00.000-07:002009-04-02T10:04:00.000-07:00First, your Mom is so sweet!

So, thank you for making me more pleasing the eye. <BR/><BR/>Third, anytime you need help with life, business or whatever, know I am here for you. My only regret is not having met you a long time ago.<BR/><BR/>Have a fun day with the little ones!!Jill Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17776498439105373842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1622905499502694107.post-26752850827059400002009-04-02T06:20:00.000-07:002009-04-02T06:20:00.000-07:00Holly,Thanks for sharing your blog with me!

I know that I have often wondered about the whole issue of being home with the little ones all day long. There are times that I wondered if I would lose my mind! But after reading your blog I realize that you 3 girls were the iron that molded me into the women I am today! And I realized I am the iron that molded you! And seeing what great women you and sisters have turned into I would say it was as it should have been!<BR/><BR/>Whether you return to the workforce or not, you will not be the same person you were before! And for that we should thank God! We are on a journey and hopefully we will continue to become the best version of ourselves, formed into the image of God!<BR/><BR/>MomAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
