I used to put "Domestic Engineer" as my occupation on my children's birth certificates (at least the first 3) but I found that, somehow, the title made me feel like I was *competing* on a worldly playing field (ie. I am valuable because I am an engineer). Can't remember what I put for baby #3, but for at least the last two, my occupation has been listed as Wife and Mother. I guess I am at peace (and more - even delighted) to be distinguished in my feminine calling. Does that make sense? Others, of course, may not feel the same way. Just a personal observation. Maybe I'm a little weird! In Him Meredith Thanks, Mrs Wilson, for a great post highlighting the feminine role in the home and church.

This is grand! Thank you, Nancy, for spurring us all on in the great work the Lord has given wives and mothers.
