I just learned that the Rachael Ray Show will be re-airing the segment on mariage tomorrow - Friday, June 25th. If you missed it the first time - you can find the local air time here.
I am SO glad!!! I missed it the first time! My hubby is home today and we are going to watch it together. I have told him all about you and your husband and we are in 100% support and try to do the same here. God is SO awesome!
Thank Courtney for visiting my blog, http://glassofsweettea.blogspot.com/ you will love that recipe of Hashbrown casserole, and a girl friend of mine does step by step picture with her baking , so i thought i was a cute idea.. I love the picture of you and your husband with your company uniform, do you work with him as well? Karen
I watched you on the Rachel Ray show and was amazed at how happy you are! I too am a stay at home mother....I do everything during the day and I do 90% of the housework. However, when my husband gets home at the end of the day, I expect him to help me with whatever I have left to do. Why should he only have to work 8-10 hours a day when I work 16? I have also failed to find the joy in staying home. I do it because I know it is where I should be however, it is often a thankless job.
I applaud you for finding joy in this. I guess I wish that a little would rub off on me.
I just have to wonder how realistic it is to be happy 24/7.
Hey Courtney. I watched the RR show and loved it.. you did a great job and very beautiful by the way.. Thanks for being a spokes person for some of woman.. come visit me again at http://glassofsweettea.blogspot.com/
Hi courntey! I saw your RR spot before I came across your blog via MBC - such a TREAT to have found your blog and connect with you. I am your newest follower! I am 35 years old, been married 13 1/2 years, and have 2 year old and 16 week old! Although the first 12 years of our marraige we both worked, and both shared the responsibilities of the household, now that we have children I stay home and maintain the home, and work some from home, while my husband works outside the home - all that you've said is right on and it's obvious the Lord is blessing your marraige as He has blessed ours. I couldn't be happier, and defining those roles are so important. I so often wish life was simpler for everyone the way things used to be - but I truly believe our marraige is one of the greatest testimonies we have to share with others - a beautiful reflection of our relationship with the Lord - and women are never more radiant and alive in their femininity and womanhood then when their men are radiant and alive in their masculinity and manhood - yes? our desires fit together like a puzzle piece so perfectly! oh there is so much more to say but will talk more with you soon - would love to have you follow me at mangia-bella.blogspot.com - I'm a new blogger, only 6 posts, but heartfelt posts indeed! would love your thoughts.
p.s. i host a weekly mom's group in an effort to connect with other moms and such but have also had a tremendous opportunity to mentor young women on what it means to be the wife and mother that the Lord has called us to be - so cool!
I LOVE hearing from my readers and I pray for you all regularly. I try to respond to questions in the comment section as quickly as I can - within 1-3 days.
Due to an overflowing email inbox and the desire to keep my husband, children and home first priority in my life, I am no longer able to answer personal emails at this time. I apologize.
Oh my goodness! Let the marriage mailbag begin! Exciting.
ReplyDeleteOh cool! I'm definitely going to tivo that so I can sit down and enjoy it after my son goes to bed. Thanks for letting us know : )
