Pursue Femininity
"Don't just settle for being a Keeper at Home, make it your conviction. Don't just reject feminism, pursue femininity." ~Sarah Zes
Thoughts by Tasha Tudo
“Why do women want to dress like men when their fortunate enough to be women? Why lose our feminity, which is one of our greatest charms? We get much more accomplished by being charming then we would by flaunting around in pants and smoking. I’m very fond of men. I think they’re wonderful creatures. I love them dearly. But I don’t want to look like one! When women gave up their long skirts, they made a grave error. Things half seen are so much more mysterious and delightful. Remember the term “a neatly turned ankle”? Think of the thrill that gentlemen used to get if they caught even a glimplse of one. Now women go around in their union suits. And what a multitude of sins you could cover up with a long skirt if you had piano legs!!”
“I enjoy doing housework, ironing, washing, cooking, dishwashing. Whenever I get one of those questionaires and they ask what is your profession, I always put down housewife. It’s an admirable profession, why apologize for it. You aren’t stupid because you’re a housewife. When you’re stirring the jam you can read Shakespeare.”
“Life isn’t long enough to do all you could accomplish. And what a privilege even to be alive. In spite of all the pollutions and horrors, how beautiful this world is. Supposing you only saw the stars once every year. Think what you would think. The wonder of it!”

One day...
Every true wife makes her
husband’s interests her own.
While he lives for her, carrying
her image in his heart and toiling
for her all the days, she thinks
only of what will do him good.
When burdens press upon him
she tries to lighten them by
sympathy, by cheer, by the
inspiration of love. She enters
with zest and enthusiasm into
all his plans. She is never a
weight to drag him down, she is
his strength in his heart to
help him ever to do nobler
and better things.

A Woman's Heart, A Child's Love
“A woman’s heart should be so close to God that a man should have to chase Him to find her.”~~C.S. Lewis
"I love little children, and it is not a slight thing when they, who are fresh from God, love us."~~Charles Dickens
"I love little children, and it is not a slight thing when they, who are fresh from God, love us."~~Charles Dickens
Advice for Mamas
“To call a woman a helper is not to emphasize her weakness but her strength, not to label her as superfluous but as essential to Adam’s condition and to God’s purpose in the world. Helper is a position of dignity given to the woman by God Himself.”~Richard D. Phillips and Sharon L. Phillips
"Love your children with all your hearts, love them enough to discipline them before it is too late. . . Praise them for important things, even if you have to stretch them a bit. Praise them a lot. They live on it like bread and butter and they need it more than bread and butter."~Lavina Christensen Fugal
"Every woman whether rich or poor, married or single, has a circle of influence within which, according to her character, she is exerting a certain amount of power for good or harm. Every woman, by her virtue or her vice, by her folly or her wisdom, by her levity or her dignity, is adding something to our national elevation or degradation. A community is not likely to be overthrown where woman fulfills her mission, for by the power of her noble heart over the hearts of others, she will raise that community from its ruins and restore it again to prosperity and joy."~John Angell James
