The grand total of what a woman could be paid for all

everyone else along the way,
I'd say that we are priceless for sure!

(salary amounts from www.indeed.com)

So, if you think it's a man's world out there, you haven't been paying attention.
Every day we are surrounded by women who inspire us with their kindness,
wit, and courage. They are our sisters, our Mothers, our best friends and
co-workers whether at home or in the job force...and sometimes even
strangers that end up to be blog friends. They make us laugh, let us cry, push us forward,
and watch our backs.
Some inspire a whole country, as well as their families, and some become
our closest friends.

No matter who she is, each woman brings a special touch that no other person has.
Her impact on others is nothing short of a miracle. Women are wise, funny, and
loving. In a tough world she is tender. In a big world she is fearless. In
ever-changing world, she is a constant friend...and women like that make all the
difference in the world!

You are each so wonderful...I am in awe of your talents
and am thankful for your friendship!

This has got to be the bestest and most inspiring post for mothers everywhere.....Well Done!!!Society tells us we are only worth what we make. Which can leave stay at home mothers feeling like society doesn't value them. Aleast I have been caught up in that lie a time or two. Thank you for providing evidence that mothers are invaluable. Many Blessings, Deborah

You are such a cheerleader, Julie! I love this post and I'm with you. There's not a better job out there and we are worth a lot...but as hard as we try we always get more back than we give! Seeing our wonderful grown children and grand kiddies are the big pay-off...

Anita@Theycallmejammi said...

Women are bringing home the bacon and frying it up in the pan. Bless the day we were born as women...the nuturers and protectors of the family. Thanks Julie...I have to go now because I have to start making list of how I'm going to spend my first paycheck....when can I expect it to arrive??? LOL, have a great day.

Diane at Crafty Passions said...

I want a raise.... sounds like I am priceless.....LOL!!
My Grandmother had 17 children and had her own parents >and< her inlaws living in the same house I often wonder what that dear lady went through and what >she< was worth, can you imagine yourself in that position on a huge fully working functional cattle farm with that many people to look after ??( To me she was a saint)

Julie said...

Julie,

a dear bloggy sis you are!! indeed.. I blogged about this very subject. I have not been able to blog lately and have been trying to play catch up, as I read all of the posts I have missed in the last week...Helping my dad has been of a more urgent calling and I know he needs me. My mom needs me, and thank goodness for friends in our real walk, friends in our e-walk, and all the support we women can have. Yes, women are a valuable asset in this world. They can have a very sacred influence on others. God smiles on that.
Love and hugs to you. Thanks for a beautiful post to inspire. :-)

Very cool post Julie. There is the occasional day that I feel underpaid but mostly I am just very happy to have the job :) And I am truly inspired by the women that I have met thru blogging. Wow there are some awesome, bright, considerate, thought provoking, wonderfully funny and thoughtful loving women out there and I am happy to read what they have to say!

Beautiful pear tree lane said...

Blessings,

What a great post! We are all underpaid in dollars, for sure, but all our blessing sure make up for it! Now, I've got to make your strawberry ice cream this weekend. I've got half and half but no cream. Do you think it'll work?

pollydove said...

I adore this post! I have seen that before and thought "kudos to the one who put that together." And it's nice that women like you are reminding us to remember our worth ... you're awesome, thank you!!!

(And I had forgotten about the jello with pretzels at the bottom, Julie! I have only had it a couple of times and it was seriously, to DIE for! I LOVED it!)

Julia said...

Oh I can only sigh and shake my head at the list since I know so many men do not recognize the complexity and minutia that moms take care of. We mom's know.

Keep up the work mom's. Life would end without us!

CassieMarie said...

Hi, I just discovered your blog from another blog and I was reading that you're an adoptive mother. I would love to email and talk to you about adopting if you wouldn't mind. I'm a 22 yr. old wife and mother to 1 angel and my hubby and I want to adopt, but haven't quite figured it all out yet. If you wouldn't mind talking you can drop me an email at cms_36451@yahoo.com or I see you're into FB, my name on there is Cassie Sheffield-Brown w/ a pic of me on my wedding day.

Melinda Cornish said...

Vickie said...

Now Julie - you just never know where or when you might meet another blogger! Never say never! Have a great week!

ga.farmwoman said...

I knew all along I had a big check coming!
Boy, I am worth a lot.

Can't wait to try the banana bread recipe. One of my favorite things.
And..I love ice cream of all flavors.
Hope you have a great day.
