A wife of noble character who can find?

Proverbs 31
    I could not begin to put a value on my wife. After 30 years, I find I have become utterly dependent on her. I trust her with my life, and she has never, ever disappointed me.

  • She is powerful wind, lifting me to heights that I could never imagine on my own.
  • She is like a rudder, keeping me focused and on track. I shutter when I think of what I might have become if left to my own devices.
  • She is smart, sexy, and funny often all at the same time.
  • She is beautiful both outwardly and inwardly. Those tiny lines you might see on her smiling face are simply her sweet spirit shining through.
  • She is the epitome of thrift and creativeness. Sales seem to follow her around. If we need it, she will find it.
  • She does the work of many, all without complaining.
  • She is generous and kind. I have yet to see her refuse a poor Girl Scout selling cookies. Her fresh baked cookies are famous, liberally given, and short lived.
  • She can plan and execute a wonderful vacation for our family on what seems almost nothing.
  • She makes us live within our means; yet we have enough.
  • We eat like kings, and still she surprises us with new and delectable things.
  • She is one of the first to awake, and usually the last to go to sleep.
  • I believe she could sew anything – I've seen it with my own eyes, from wedding dresses to suits, often without a pattern.
  • She protects her family. I would rather face a mother bear in a deserted wood.
  • Her children text just to say “I love you.”
  • She is the best thing that has ever happened to me.
I may have accomplished a few noble things. I strive to be a good father. I try to be the best husband possible. But any way that you look at it, I got the better deal by far.
