 Homemaking is More Than Housekeeping “Homemaking, as I view it, falls into two major divisions: homemaking and housekeeping. Homemaking takes into account the spiritual values: love, peace, tranquility, harmony among family members, security. It makes of a place of residence a spot to which family members can retire from a confused and troubled world and find understanding and rejuvenation. Its character is quietness; it evidences good taste, culture, and refinement. Men, women, and children alike have their individual contributions to make to good home and family life, and each shares in its benefits. “Housekeeping involves the work of keeping a house clean, orderly, and well managed.” (Belle S. Spafford, A Woman’s Reach [Salt Lake City: Deseret Book Co., 1974], pp. 24–25).

 "Women, for the most part, see their greatest fulfillment, their greatest happiness in home and family" -Gordon B. Hinckley Home and Ideals Whether built of logs or marble, by the surroundings picturesque or desolate, a spot marked by squalor or opulence, the four walls of a home close in and nurse the best there is in man...The birds on the garden shrubs unfold their secrets to the growing child, from birds, from blossoms, fruit seed, over and again he learns his first lessons of his relation to God and nature. If art reigns in the home, there will grow out of it beautiful parks, streets and thoroughfares and cities...A life consumed by following society's unprofitable and foolish fashions has a parallel in that of a woman who never takes a moment for study and self-improvement, but makes herself a slave to her home. The home must be kept sweet and clean, but the brain is as prone to get cobwebby as the best room. (Excerpts from the Woman's Exponent, Feb. 1 & Feb. 15, 1901) |
