 "Women, for the most part, see their greatest fulfillment, their greatest happiness in home and family" -Gordon B. Hinckley 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). |
