"It's GOOD that Mom finally has a job!"

 ... these words coming from the 6 year old.

I guess all these years I have been just a trophy wife that likes to do odd jobs around the home for free.  Sometimes I pop out babies  ... making sure they don't get hurt, driving them to the pool, buying them snacks, and organizing playdates.  Oh, I also make sure they get fed, clothed, and educated.  I even throw in a few pointers on how to behave and be good people.

Before I was JUST a mom.

Now I am a Sunday School Teacher.

I still don't get paid with money.

What if I tell my 6 year old that I work from the heart (no paycheck) ... that I am just trying to share The Good News of Jesus with others?  Will that still be a job to her?

Hmmmm .... 

Maybe I should just tell her that I do get money (an allowance or paycheck) from her Dad, but that I prefer to spend it all on my children.

YES, that's what I will do!  

I do have a job ... two in fact ;)
