A CLEAN HOME IS A HOUSEWIFE’S VALIDATION:

While it’s nice to hear praise for keeping a home clean and in order, the reality is that a housewife may not hear it every day. However, not to hear verbal validation does not mean her work isn’t appreciated, or doesn’t matter, or is not noticed. She is the one who notices the results of her labor more than anyone else, and when a housewife looks around her home and sees her accomplishments, that is validation she can feel good about.
