Mothering As A Job

I have been listening to a great talk rebroadcast online from my MOPS group. It was fantastic. Amazing. Inspiring. She ends her speach by saying something like, "you mothers are doing the most improtant job in the entire world." Ben picked up on the "most important job in the entire world" part and asked me, "What is the most important job in the world?" I told him it was to be a mother. He responded, "Yeah, it's pretty important, but it isn't really fun. It sure is boring to be a mom." It made me laugh.
