I have been a stay at home mom for almost 5 years now. We have three children with the youngest being 4 years old. I have had people ask me constantly when I am going back to work or if I will go back when our daughter starts kindergarten. Our answer is no I won't. When my husband and I first got married we were kids ourselves, ages 18 and 20 with a baby. We both worked to put food on the table. Our marriage started to crumble because I didn't trust him to do enough to provide and I was working as many hours as I could to make sure the bills were paid. Eventually, our marriage started falling apart and it wasn't until after God gave me a clear picture that I trusted Him (God) enough to provide for our family. It took quite a few years, but we took the leap of faith and we watched God provide at every turn. He provided my husband with his dream career which provides for us. We're aren't rich by any stretch of the unagination, but we are comfortable and provided for. Women ask me all the time, what if ur husband leaves u? I'm not worried about that. My husband and I have been together since we were kids. Our marriage is planted in the word. People ask me, what if my husband dies? My husband has done the responsible thing and has taken out enough life insurance so that in the event something happens to him, me and the kids are not out in the cold and I can continue being there for our children. Is staying home always easy? No. My husband works multiple jobs to make sure that we are provided for. It is however, worth it. In letting my husband provide, I have seen his confidence flourish over the last few years and I have seen him go after opportunities because he wants to make us proud. He wants to be a good provider.
