| Motherhood, Young Women

Are there any good manners left in our society?  What happened to Thank You notes, RSVPs, sincere apologies?  Is the customer ever right, anymore?  Is graciousness old fashioned?  Do our young people know how to conduct themselves in a formal situation? Emmeline B. Wells wrote an article in the Women’s Exponent lamenting this very topic […]

“You were entrusted to come to the earth in these last days to do again what you did before.”   This bold statement comes from Elder James J. Hamula’s Conference talk, Winning the War against Evil.  This was a talk geared for the young men, but I feel it is worthwhile for mothers to hear it.  […]

Several years ago I started my “grandma book”.  I guess I didn’t have enough at being a mother; I had to keep going.  I guess I also wanted to be the greatest grandma in the world.   I subtitled it my “campaign to save our children” book.  Okay, I may come off a little bit […]

Funny article found in the Women’s Exponent. Do you see yourself in these stories? HOW IT IS DONE Scene in library—gentleman busy writing—child enters: “Father, give me a penny.” “Haven’t got any—don’t bother me.” “But, father, I want it—something particular.” “I tell you I haven’t got one about me.” “I must have it!  You promised […]

Times have definitely changed.  Back in the old days, three year old girls were learning how to embroider.  Six year olds were crocheting and mending.  Eight year olds were taking piano lessons and sewing.  Ten year olds were cooking, gardening and tending for the family.  We don’t do that kind of training anymore.

This is the first time I address motherhood directly, but you must know that indirectly all of my posts have centered around good mothering and all the responsibilities that rest on our shoulders as mothers.  You know the old joke that men don’t multi-task like women …  That’s exactly what we were born to do, […]
