I Love My Wife Because
by Meph

1. She takes me out to dinner twice each month and leaves me letters to express her appreciation for me
2. She isn't too prideful to admit when she is wrong and apologize
3. She takes wonderful care of our children
4. She makes sure that the house is always peaceful when I come in from work
5. She accepts the fact that I am the leader with a genuinely positive attitude
6. She never denies me her body and doesn't make me make the first move all of the time
7. She always reinforces and respects my authority to the children
8. She is well-mannered
9. She is very kind
10.She always makes sure the laundry is done so I don't have to go digging and searching for my work clothes and other things I need
11. She is financially responsible
12. She jogs 40 miles each week so she can stay healthy enough to take care of me and the kids
13. She helped me lose 100 lbs. in the last 8 months by cooking well and teaching me how food works, how to exercise and overcome temptations- not because she wants eye candy but because she wants me
14. She didn't come down on me when I cheated on the above plan
15. She actually uses the time with our children productively instead of just letting them lay around, watch tv and eat junk
16. She is loving but firm with our children
17. She had nothing but encouraging words when I told her that I wanted to go back to school to pursue a dream I've had for a very long time
18. If we disagree, she talks about it only with me - not her girlfriends and family members
19. She's intelligent
20. She's multi-dimensional
21. She watches movies that she isn't interested in just to be alone with me.
22. She is very patient and forgiving
23. She helped me pass my statistics class
24. She keeps herself clean
25. She asks me my opinion and cares how I feel no matter how small the issue
26. She never throws her success up in my face but helps me plan for mine
27. She does a pretty good bald fade and edge up and when I tried locs, she always tightened them for me
28. Even when I was fat, she looked at me and made me feel like I was an adonis
29. When I'm sick, she wakes up several times a night to check on me just like she does the kids
30. She shaves me
31. She turned down a project that came with lots of money but would have taken her away from me most of the year
32. The black shorts she wears around the house
33. She can fix things
34. She greets me when I come home regardless if I just ran to the store or am coming in from work
35. She proudly acknowledges her addiction to both chicken and watermelon
