I have come to know that my role as a wife is very significant and that it should not be taken lightly. I also know that I will be held accountable for the way I choose to walk out my role as a Christian wife.

It makes my husband feel dishonored and emasculated. NOT good. And, let me tell you, I am a tigress when it comes to my sweet girls.Inevitably, we wind up in a fight and I have completely stepped out of my helper role and into a mother role towards my husband...all in front of my daughters.
