I could go back to work and look after other people’s children instead of our own but why would I?
Praise God, we do not need the extra finances to get by and saving what we earn is more economical at this stage of our lives.
I trained and worked with other people’s children for 2 decades & have have honed my skills considerably.
My children (2 school-age) and now my ageing ‘Alzheimer’s’ parents are the grateful recipients of my being Australia’s No. 1 Home-Maker! (LOL) Not forgetting my husband and Church/School community!

This is great! It reminds me of the importance of community. Right now I am involved in trying to help revitalize our church-and it seems to me that one of the biggest things that church can offer to folks* is a sense of community that is lacking in our culture today.

*Note: obviously the biggest thing church has to offer is a closer and more meaningful relationship with God. However to folks who are out there and feel that they are doing very well without that thank you-community is a drawing point that can get them in the door. Once they are there you can try to show/teach/lead them to understanding about God.

**Note #2-this is just my opinion. If yours differs on the faith issue please don’t hijack Amy’s lovely post, but feel free to email me personally. My email is on my site.
