Educated women in the home?

By Seeing the Everyday | March 30, 2011

Educated women in the home? What an odd thing to deplore! What better place to have us “end up”. . . What more important job is there than sharing the values we are learning to cherish with the next generation of adults? What more strategic place could there be for the educated woman?

What touches the soul

By Seeing the Everyday | December 2, 2010

Nothing touches the soul but leaves its impress, and thus, little by little, we are fashioned into the image of all we have seen and heard, known and meditated; and if we learn to live with all that is fairest and purest and best, the love of it all will in the end become our very life.

Thank you readers

By Seeing the Everyday | October 21, 2010

We appreciate the warm responses and expressions of thanks from our readers. Knowing that you have found Seeing the Everyday magazine to be helpful is meaningful to us, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts. Thank you for your kind support, and here are a some of the thoughts you have shared:

I just received my first issue in the mail, and I have to say, thank you so much for putting something of substance into the marketplace. It is all too easy to forget how important the everyday is, particularly in this fast-paced world that we all live in. Is it possible to order back issues? I would love to see what I have missed!
Kerrie

Best. Magazine. Ever.
Shae

Thank you. . . I just received my first issue [of Seeing the Everyday] and love it! Very refreshing reading.
Michelle

I am submitting a story for your consideration to your magazine. Whether you decide to use it or not is irrelevant because I have captured the memory on paper to share with my posterity but it was only possible due to the inspiration of your magazine. . . . Its format is singular and it has uplifted and inspired my life. Thank you for daring to be a different magazine.
Ruth

Thank you very much for your kind and thorough arrangements. It reflects the warmth I perceive when I read your magazine.
Best regards,
Yayoi

HI there,
I have just signed up for a subscription but am very interested in also purchasing all past issues. Please let me know if this is at all possible. I’ve seen your magazine via a friend and it’s absolutely lovely. Definitely one to keep on the shelf for a long time as a constant source of reference.
thank you for your time,
Bela

You validate our most important work as mothers.

Song for a fifth child

By Seeing the Everyday | September 10, 2010

Mother, oh Mother, come shake out your cloth
empty the dustpan, poison the moth,
hang out the washing and butter the bread,
sew on a button and make up a bed.
Where is the mother whose house is so shocking?
She’s up in the nursery, blissfully rocking.

Oh, I’ve grown shiftless as Little Boy Blue
( lullaby, rockaby, lullaby loo).
Dishes are waiting and bills are past due
( pat-a-cake, darling, and peek, peekaboo).
The shopping’s not done and there’s nothing for stew
and out in the yard there’s a hullabaloo
but I’m playing Kanga and this is my Roo.
Look! Aren’t her eyes the most wonderful hue?
( lullaby, rockaby, lullaby loo).

The cleaning and scrubbing will wait till tomorrow,
for children grow up, as I’ve learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust go to sleep.
I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep.

- Ruth Hulburt Hamilton, Lady’s Home Journal (1958)
