Stay at home mum doesn't really sound very professional huh...it actually sounds pretty lazy and laid back. A mum that stays at home doing nothing significant???? A Tai Tai?? So what other terms can we address ourselves??? Full time mummy, homemaker, Minister of home affairs, CEO of XX family....... be it any term, it is a full time job just like any other jobs taken outside the home. However, this job is often looked down and shy away. MAYBE it is simply too mundane, and insignificant. A job that has no appraisals except from your hubby who is stingy with praises and exhausted to think about your career advancement! Lol
Do u remember washing endless loads of clothes, and dirty plates and cultery, bottles, feeding a handful mouths with different appeitite, buying fresh food, mopping dirty floors, wiping yellow mucous from sick children, running errands...somehow it seems endless. No one appreciate your effort for straightening the home diligently, and as if it was all done by a fairy God mother with a magic wand. AND when u miss one of the chore due to dire exhaustion or impending viral attack, the undone chore seems so glaring!! Somehow we aren't exempted from these MUSTDO chores!
