The Hardest Job in the World

 

Motherhood is the hardest job in the world. From the heartaches of infertility to the stretchmarks of pregnancy to the pains of labor, we endure it all.

And then some of us decide to stay at home to raise our kids. This is not an argument pitting stay at home moms vs. working moms because, let's face it, we're all doing work, it's just in different settings.

I want this lens to be a source of useful information to help SAHMs plan their days with their children, to be connected and involved with their activities rather than turning on the television. This is for the SAHM who has run out of ideas of how to entertain their kids on any given day.

Surviving the Summer at Home 

For When the Kids Yell, "I'm Bored!"

My blog titled Surviving At Home has lots of new ideas for keeping your kids busy this summer. Each week has a new theme that you can easily adapt for your school-age children.

I hope this is useful for SAHMs and also those who are caring for children, either in a professional daycare setting or in their home.

One week we talked about making homemade ice cream and this week is all about travelling with Flat Stanley and Magic Treehouse characters. Come join the fun and hopefully you'll be inspired! Let me know your own tips for "surviving at home"!

Netflix Movies 

What could be better than browsing for a favorite movie online and having it arrive in the mail 2 days later? Doesn't that beat roaming the video store aisles, hoping for some inspiration, only to find out the one title you really wanted to see isn't there?

Hi, I'd love you to come check out my brand new lens on ways to induce labor --I've become pretty passionate about this subject.

I'm a SAHM and this looks like a great resource. Come visit my site where I help women learn how to induce labor at home, for those who are 40 weeks pregnant and want to "move things along."

About Christina_Lemmey

I've been happily married for 14 years and a SAHM for 11 of those years. Sometimes I would get really bored doing the same old housework and activities with my 2 girls so I wanted to start this site to inspire other SAHMs to be creative and to inspire their kids to learn new things.
