“She was an American actress, singer, model, she did it all. She became a popular sex symbol in the ’50s and ’60s, inspiring many women to chase their dreams and be themselves. Sadly, she passed away at the very young age of 36. However, she still managed to achieve more things than most people do in a full lifetime.”

————————————————————————————————-

My wife quit her $75,000 a year job in 1998 to raise our son. We ended up with two biological sons, one biological daughter, one adopted son and one son we fostered. The adopted sons biological mother used hard drugs when she was pregnant causing my adopted son to be born with several mental issues.
My fostered son came from a drug addicted family and through my wife’s influence has grown up to become a career Soldier with a fabulous wife and two fine young boys of his own, breaking his families long line of worthless trash.
My two oldest boys are Marines, one of whom is on his way to becoming a Scout Sniper. Neither have even so much as had a speeding ticket.
My daughter is still at home about to finish her “high school” education. She has never so much as back talked us.
All my children were homeschooled by my wife.

The author of this little piece has no idea what real achievement is.
Marylin Monroe as well as most other Hollywood trash don’t hold a candle to my wife’s achievements.
And to boot my wife at 48 is smoking hot with zero surgical enhancements.

You sir, are well blessed indeed.
She is worth far more than rubies.

A wife of noble character who can find?
She is worth far more than rubies. Her husband has full confidence in her
and lacks nothing of value.
She brings him good, not harm,
all the days of her life.
She selects wool and flax
and works with eager hands.
She is like the merchant ships,
bringing her food from afar.
She gets up while it is still night;
she provides food for her family
and portions for her female servants.
She considers a field and buys it;
out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.
She sets about her work vigorously;
her arms are strong for her tasks.
She sees that her trading is profitable,
and her lamp does not go out at night.
In her hand she holds the distaff
and grasps the spindle with her fingers.
She opens her arms to the poor
and extends her hands to the needy.
When it snows, she has no fear for her household;
for all of them are clothed in scarlet.
She makes coverings for her bed;
she is clothed in fine linen and purple.
Her husband is respected at the city gate,
where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.
She makes linen garments and sells them,
and supplies the merchants with sashes.
She is clothed with strength and dignity;
she can laugh at the days to come.
She speaks with wisdom,
and faithful instruction is on her tongue.
She watches over the affairs of her household
and does not eat the bread of idleness.
Her children arise and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her:
“Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
Honor her for all that her hands have done,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

You, sir, are a treasure. I’m sure that your wife knows this!
