My husband came up with a cute name for my career position at this time in my life. He calls me a “Domestic Goddess” – aka Housewife and Mom.

I looked online to find out what a mom would be paid if she were actually making a salary in the work world. This figure is from 2006 (so may be more) – $134,121. That’s an awful lot of money 🙂

Here is what my job description includes:

– Housekeeper
– Child Care Provider
– Teacher
– Cook
– Computer Operator
– Laundry Machine Operator
– Janitor
– Facilities Manager
– Chauffeur
– CEO
– Psychologist
– Nurse
– Personal Shopper

I’m sure there are more but those are just a few of the different jobs that fall under the title of Domestic Goddess (aka mom or wife).

Why did I add another blog, you may be asking? We have a family blog already but I decided I wanted to create a blog about parenting and motherhood, publishing things that I’ve found to be helpful in our lives. I hope you enjoy it and visit often. 🙂
