Honoring is Not Being Submissive and Weak
05/12/2014

I am my kids' mom and my husband's girlfriend. I have been married for 16 years and have two teenage daughters. Although I was raised by feminist parents, I chose to live differently. I have been a stay-at-home mom for both of my girls' lives and will continue to do so until my youngest heads to college. 

I praise my husband for things he does. I surprise him with notes in his car and cute texts during the day. I let him know he is my #1 after God. Too many people think that for a wife to honor her husband, she must be submissive and weak. That isn't true at all! My voice is always heard and my opinion always considered. What "those people" don't understand is that while I do honor and serve my husband, he works hard and would give me anything in the world within the budget...haha. 

So, thank you, Dr. Laura for showing people women can be strong, nurturing, loving and funny.
