What Would We Do Without Mothers?  
   
“Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies.” (Prov. 31:10)  
   
A man returned home from work one rainy afternoon and was shocked to find his three young children in the yard, still in pajamas, soaked and playing in the mud. Rushing into the house, he could hardly believe his eyes. The family room was cluttered with toys, coloring books, half-eaten snacks and dirty clothes. In the kitchen, cereal dotted the floor, syrup dripped from the counter, dishes filled the sink, and the refrigerator door was standing wide open.  
   
He ran upstairs, stumbling over toys and more dirty clothes. He was stunned to see water trickling from the bathroom. Peering within he saw soaked towels, wet tissue, spilled shampoo and bath toys scattered on the floor. The mirror was smeared with toothpaste.  
   
“Something horrible has happened", he thought. "Perhaps my wife passed out or is very ill. As he dashed to the master bedroom, he was astonished to find his wife curled up in bed, reading a novel and wating popcorn. She glanced up, smiled, and welcomed him home. Incredulously, he exclaimed, “What is going on around here?” She calmly replied, “Honey, when you return from work each day, you always ask if I've done anything useful all day. Well, today, I didn’t!”  
   
*********************************************  
This story remind us of the many vital things that mothers do which husbands (and children) often take for granted. Let’s make it a point to constantly thank mothers for all the essential things they do each day. We'd be "lost" without them!  
   
A recommitted me in 2023!
