I wish I could could crochet HA HA HA

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 totalling $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.'

 

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, because I don't know how to crochet.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
