If I was a perfect wife and mom.....

My children and husband would arise and call me blessed and praise me. (Proverbs 31:28)

Every word out of my mouth would encourage, teach, and motivate them.

I would always put their needs ahead of my own.

"My breasts be like the clusters of the vine, the fragrance of my breath like apples, and my mouth like the best wine" to my husband. (Song of Songs 7:8)

The boys would always smile and gladly do what I ask.

I would have them trained to always have a clean room, picked up clothes, and clean bathroom.

When I walk in the door they smile and welcome me with joy.

They would graciously accept all of my wise advice and thank me for it.

I would anticipate their every need.

They could eat off the floors, a fresh clean aroma greets them everytime they enter a room, the mirrors and windows sparkle, and the kitchen smells of homemade bread and pies every afternoon.

I would always have a homecooked , healthy meal on the table and they would eat all of it without complaint and thank me for my hard work.

Everything would be put in its place and found when needed.

Laundry would always be crisp and clean, folded, ironed, and put in its place.

Only my love and deeds for them would be enough to sustain me.

I would put the color in their world, a smile on their face, and love in their heart!

Proverbs 31:10-31

Well....... unfortunately, I am not perfect - I will let you know when it happens!

I would be the perfect wife and mom if I had the perfect husband and kids--LOL!!!

(I am really not sure if it's safe to eat off my kitchen table?)
