Beautiful Homemakers

Hello, Beautiful Homemakers! I hurt my back this week and was unable to finish this week's video.  I'm finally on the mend, so expect one next week.  I had hoped to post something before this weekly e-mail sends on Saturday morning with Mailchimp, but it's not going to happen. If you are interested in continuing to receive this blog with my video updates, please sign up with Follow.it.  (Mailchimp is eliminating their free service on June 1st.  So you will be receiving an e-mail from both services until June 1.)  There is a new subscription box for Follow.It on my website. ✅ Or you may click this link:   Sign up here for future posts.

Hello, Beautiful Homemakers!  We are in the middle of chapter 13 of the sixth pamphlet of the original Fascinating Womanhood pamphlets.  This subsection is called "What the Man Wants You to Appreciate."   Listen not so much to what the man is saying when he is showing off to you what he knows, but admire the man himself.   "Many girls at this point make the mistake of appreciating the wrong thing, admiring what is SAID, instead of the MAN who says it." He wants to be admired as a MAN.   "If you can't see anything manly in him - then he won't see anything womanly in you!"

Here is the link , just in case you can't fi...
