I loved this sweet post from Kimberly [1], a mother of 5 little ones. She writes about her daughters helping in the kitchen, and then concludes:
You know, if the Lord should graciously give us more children, I may be living the life of a queen one day!
1.
nurse the baby
2.read to the children
3.take a nap
That sounds pretty ideal to me! ;)
