I often think of my Mum and MIL lighting the fire in the mornings. Though they only did it for a period of time I think.
That is a good article especially the kind words about her mother etc.
"My grandmother and mother are both lifetime homemakers. Neither of them even went to college. Yet I am able to have the most interesting conversations with them. Between the cooking, cleaning, and sewing they find time to read and volunteer. My mother has volunteered at a genealogical library for years. They will also do research on issues and subjects that interest them. Because they continue to better themselves, they pass on their learnings to their children. I learned British history from my mother for example. She also taught me how to read and how to love reading. No professional caregiver could replace the education given to me from by my mother."

Yes, I agree Br. It's just nice to read something positive about homemaking.
