I feel that God has given me gifts and abilities to develop and use. Yet, I also am in charge of raising two beautiful children, supporting my spouse and maintaining a peaceful and orderly household. I often ask myself if I am doing what I am supposed to and if I am maintaining an appropriate balance in my life. I just started reading a book called "Being a God Chaser and a Kid Chaser" by

Sometimes, it seems as if I just do not have enough hours in the day. Today was a big housecleaning day for me so I totally slipped into full mommy mode and did not do any writing in the morning at all. I cleaned, cooked and then cleaned up again. And you know what? I really enjoyed myself! I like being "just Mommy" because it is fun. Yes there is writing to be done but it is a beautiful

Despite societal pressures, political extremists and studies that claim that all children really want is for their moms to feel "fulfilled", more moms are making choices that they know deep down in their hearts are good for their families. Moms are choosing to leave the workplace to perform the equally important job of raising their families. Click on headline for full story.

If it sounds too good to be true....Run! Work-at-home moms are now viewed as key targets for unscrupulous MLM companies because the prinicipals realize that many moms feel desperate to stay at home with their children. Deceptive practices such as suggesting that moms will make large amounts of money by generating "passive income" in which money will flow to you based on the work done by your

This very informative and inspirational book about solo entrepreneurs by Bruce Judson was a very easy read. It has a very interesting premise about the future of small businesses and his arguments were very persuasive. Basically, because of leaps in technology, a one-man or one-woman operation can have the same global impact as a corporation with tens of thousands of employees. Instant
