Marriage Secret

[brnidokiegurl 1]

Marriage secret:

A man and woman had been married for more than 60 years.

They had shared everything. They had talked about everything. They had

kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a

shoe box in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband

never to open or ask her about. For all of these years, he had never

thought about the box, but one day the little old woman got very sick and

the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their

affairs, the little old man took down the shoe box and took it to his

wife's bedside. She agreed that it was time that he should know what was

in the box. When he opened it, he found two crocheted dolls and a stack

of money totaling $95,000. He asked her about the contents. "When we were

to be married," she said, "my grandmother told me the secret of a happy

marriage was to never argue. She told me that if I ever got angry with

you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll." The little old

man was so moved; he had to fight back tears. Only two precious dolls

were in the box. She had only been angry with him two times in all those

years of living and loving. He almost burst with happiness. "Honey," he

said, "that explains the doll, but what about all of this money? Where

did it come from?" "Oh," she said, "That's the money I made from

selling the dolls."

Women will love this... A Prayer.......

Dear Lord, I pray for Wisdom to understand my man;

Love to forgive him;

And Patience for his moods;

Because Lord, if I pray for Strength, I'll beat him to death.

And I don't know how to crochet.

But I think she should have spent the money on a vacation, LOL!!

It sux to have money that much and you're just too ill to enjoy spending it on happy things in life.

Ok ... where do we sign up for crochet lessons?

I don't think I'll make that much money though. Unless I also crochet dolls each time my teen-agers make me angry.
