a married woman whose main occupation is caring for her family, managing household affairs, and doing housework.
a small case for needles, thread, and other small sewing items.
It’s interesting how people a lot of laughed when I told them my dream to be a housewife. Or how I would hesitate, add a sarcastic laugh or shy away from sharing that. Being a housewife was supposed to be the “end” or the eventual role that I would take on in my life.
Then I when I met with my mentor not too long ago, she looked at me so seriously and said, “so if it’s your dream, and you’re already on the path to achieving that dream, why not pursue it?”
I know that being a housewife is no joke. Serious kudos to all the wives out there that take care of everything- literally cooking, cleaning, washing, drying then cooking again and cleaning again...all day. Then you get to those stay at home moms...but I’m not even close to knowing what that’s like so I’ll keep it at that.
As not easy as it is, I love it. I can definitely say that I don’t do half the things that many stay-at-home wives out there do. I have a husband that is home sporadically, allowing me to take my time on a lot of housework. I have understanding parents that always makes sure that we have something to eat. I have a brother who can care less if the laundry is hang drying in the hallway.
I took so much of it for granted: clean clothes, food, dust-free room, organized dishes and living spaces. Thank God for the understanding husband that looks past my imperfections.
It may not be easy, not be a breeze, nothing simple, but it’s my joy. Making sure my husband has coffee in the morning and clean clothes everyday...being a housewife (and technically a student) has been an incredible [short] journey this past month..
Too bad it only be my only role... job-hunting must begin.
My first and foremost job as a housewife (thank God) is a gift, joy, and blessing.
