BEING THANKFUL REFINES A HOUSEWIFE:
When housework never seems to end, it’s easy for a housewife to lose sight of thankfulness. That’s why it’s important for a housewife to stop herself when she starts to feel fed up with what she has and focus instead on giving thanks for her home and family. Being thankful for what she has helps to refine a housewife by removing cynical and cranky thoughts, and making room for a grateful mindset and a loving heart.
