The Homemaker's Salary

I read an article on yahoo last night, "How Much Is A Homemaker Worth?".  Quite interesting!  The whole article is here, but here is a quick breakdown.

Private Chef (including grocery shopping): 52,260 per year
House Cleaner: 6,136 per year
Child Care: 31,200 per year
Private Driver: 4,168 per year
Laundry Service: 936 per year
Lawn Maintenance: 1,560 per year
Grand Total: $96,261 per year!!!

When I saw that total, I was blown away!  Granted being a stay at home mom/wife is not something we get paid for, but you could think about it as saving your family that much money.  Or at least a portion of that sum!  Looks like God did know how important a woman can be and how much money she can save her family by following His teachings that a woman should be a "keeper at home".  (Yes, I know God knows everything well before we realize it!)

The contribution that a woman makes to her family is invaluable.  I don't think there is a real price tag to be put on it.  But I still found this interesting and thought maybe some of you would too. 
Blessings in Christ,
