Example of use:Why, aren't you the Suzy Homemaker! You are even wearing an apron.
I think that part about the "with enthusiasm" is great....I don't generally think of myself as enthusiastic about scrubbing the bathroom, or vacuuming....but I do love making my home inviting and comfortable and pretty....so I guess I have an overall enthusiasm for my home ; ) How about you?

We always call one of my aunts "Suzy Homemaker" - it's meant affectionately, descriptively, to explain why she makes her own bread, her house is clean, and she gardens. . . all while working as a school nurse. I hope I'm a Suzy Homemaker too!
I've been so garden-centered these days that my house has gone to rack and ruin. I decided to have just a quick little blog check before tackling the upstairs. Now I'll try to do it with enthusiasm.
Why look! She's even wearing your shoes!
;-}
Yes, homemaking is a high calling. I taught my girls to sing hymns as they do the dishes...A midwife had shared that with me...Contentment with godliness... Great gain! : )
I dont know if I can say with 'ENTHUSIASM",ha. but I do thank God for my home and Pray I take care of it ,in the way,he would have me too.And that my childen and grandchildren, would see the Lord through my actions.
thankyou for sharing. Judy
