Happiness at Home



Today I read aloud about the source of real happiness. I hope you can go about your household routine while you listen. 


Thank you so much for coming to listen. I always look forward to this time when I can keep you company while you get some things done at home.


Things are going well here at The Manse. 


Please have a cup of tea while you listen today:

Dear Lydia,

I have been in homemaker heaven with all the recent videos and broadcasts!! Thank you so very much!! I am so motivated by your talks— they are better than any vitamin I might take to fuel my energy! 😊 I pray you have a wonderful holiday with your family. Happy belated 50th wedding Anniversary!😊

dear Lydia, I completely agree with Holly!
For two weeks I have been sick with the dread C19 and a sinus infection ;your broadcasts have been a balm .Since I had considerable brain fog during this time I am listening to them all for a second time. Also, as you have taught about character I found the Lord bringing this subject of character to my attention thru many different sources-the Bible, books, devotionals radio broadcasts. I love how He does this!I am also studying Fascinating Womanhood again, which I bought in 2000. Blessings to you and your family as you celebrate your marriage together.
by the way, I love being vital! 73.

Hello, Lydia. What a beautiful, feminine name you have.

I find it so refreshing to hear you talk and read about raising children with positive, wholesome family values. It has brought back memories of my own upbringing by a stay at home mom. She seemed to love being a homemaker, and taught me the basics of ironing, making my bed, dusting, & vacuuming, none of which I did cheerfully, because she didn’t know how to show love through homemaking or foster a love of homemaking as part of wholesome family values in me.

I recently purchased “Winsome Womanhood” and “Beautiful Girlhood”, neither of which offered a sample page for preview. When I received them, the font style, clarity, and line formatting prevented me from being able to read either of them without undue eye strain. Luckily, I will be able to return them to Amazon for a full refund at no cost.

“The Fascinating Girl” also sounds interesting, and one review even mentioned it had a good font size. I will probably order it, hoping I will be able to read the print clearly. I don’t need giant, bold print; just a font that’s clear, dark enough to see, and with adequate spacing between the lines.

As a 70 yr old widowed retiree, I am just now discovering the love, joy and serenity in being a homemaker. At last…

Hello Lydia and ladies,
I am still behind on videos and am slowly catching up. I am loving fall and staying at home. I wanted to let others know that I have a wonderful library in my small town, and I stopped in to see if they had "Cottage Core". They did not, however, all library's can "borrow" amongst themselves and I only had to wait a week to get the book (from Pennsylvania to Colorado!) I was able to make notes on what I wanted and then returned the book. They may not be able to do it for all books, but it has worked for me!
