““For me, to be grown-up means I accept responsibility for taking care of my home. When my husband and I first got married, we both agreed we always wanted to have at least one of us at home with our kids, and that the one who stayed home would be responsible for running the household and keeping house. Colossians 3:23 tells us, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters.” If my job is to take care of the home, my duty is to do it well. This is not to say that the other one shouldn’t help out or that we don’t sometimes share duties; we do. That said, we also accept the fact that keeping house is just part of having a home, as well as a way to show each other we care.””
