I have to give credit where credit is due. I meet my wife at an early age, I watched her change from a girlfriend to a wife and mother, every step it became less and less about her and more about the family. something about a women once becoming a mother that they get these super powers and never become tired and will climb high mountains for there family, and they don't expect a thank you or a pat on the shoulder, they believe it's there duty. When I told my wife about my dressing problem, she didn't think there was a problem and has been very supportive. I am writing this post because last Saturday the kids were away for the night and we usually get together with friends or family, but that night she asked if we could just stay home and relax. I asked in that case if it would be alright if I dress, she told me I should take advantage of any opportunity I get. It was a great night we watched movies and she bought herself a few new dresses and asked me to model them for her, it was like a girls night. Sunday mornings I usally go to help my father in law with around the house chores, ther getting older and can use the help, my wife dropped me off and she went shopping. It was getting close to lunch and my mother in law asked me if it was OK if she just heated up some leftovers, knowing I am not a fussy eater. When I sat down for lunch there was deer and mouse meat. I was surprised because she usally makes this when the family is all together and she knows my love for wild game ,or when she has friends over for dinner. I asked her who was over the night before, she told me all the family was there and she had called my wife but she said we were busy and couldn't make it, I must of had a stupid look on my face because I knew we didn't do anything and I know how much my wife loves spending time with her family. A few minutes later my wife came back and sat at the table, her mother attacked her instantly and asked her what she was doing that she couldn't make it for dinner the night before. She told her, looking me straight in the eyes, that her good friend Maria came over. Her mother looking at me and then looking at her was wondering what was really going on, and made some comment about she never herd my wife talking about this girl Maria before. We were driving home and I asked my wife why she told her mother we were busy when we weren't doing anything, and I know how much she love spending time with her family, she told me that the last few weeks I had a little more Maria time and that she noticed a big difference with me, that I am more focused and just more happy go lucky during the week and felt it was more important for me to get Maria time then having dinner with her family. I told her if I didn't come to her parents house I would have never known she did that for me and that she didn't want credit or a thank you for doing that for me and how unselfish and kind that was of her, most people would want it known that they did something like that. She told me the most important thing in the world to her is her family, she has to make sure everything is perfect in our four walls of our home, that's all that matters to her, and better to have piece in the home and the war outside the house, I thanked her and realized how much threw out the years I watched her put herself second to everybody else, and threw it all she never asks for a thank you or even a pat on the back. I told her that we all take her for granted and she should take more time to enjoy the things she wants to do. She said seeing her family happy is what she enjoys. It must be once you become a mother that's all you care about is the family. Sorry it was a little long I felt I had to tell the whole story for it to be appreciated and I don't know many people who do something nice and don't want it known. I thank my wife and every wife and mother for there unselfish and caring love for there family, over there own needs.
wife that truly loves you so much.
