Give My Husband Back Part XLI: Conclusion What is it about me that appealed to him? Did my flawless body mesmerize him? No, I don’t think it was that, I barely fit into a size 16! Was it my long flowing hair? It couldn’t be that either, I don’t have much. You would have never suspected me. I’m not someone who would chase a married man. That takes too much work. I didn’t have that kind of time. I was too busy working and being a single parent. But, while embracing my singleness, I accepted the place where God put me. I was working on a craft. The craft of being something I wasn’t but one day hoped to be. I had plenty of practices and dress rehearsals. I listened to women like Christine talk about everything their husbands gave them, yet they never gave anything back but children who, ended up being excuses and pawns. I watched them go off and leave their families to be with people who had no family to come home to. I heard them brag about all of the things they didn’t have to do, as if they wanted a prize. They didn’t appreciate the prizes they had at home. I listened attentively and took my notes on what not to do. I did my internship in an emotional affair, and graduated with honors from Wife School. I was watching married women fail those classes. After graduation, I opened up my Fishbowl Practice and allowed him to look into my transparent life. Like a TV, he watched me scrape the rocks to find food for my young minnow that depended on me. I didn’t care what Avery did for a living. I was more concerned with his heart. I wanted to know how his day went and how I could make it complete. He watched me wear many hats. I dealt with EVERY task a particular hat required. Watching me gave him another view of a woman. A woman who was holding it down on her own and not expecting praise for it or for anyone else to bail me out. I deserved a man like Avery. This king needed a queen. A real queen would never depend on the servants to tuck her husband in and read bedtime stories to her young at night. A real queen knows her place when her king returns from the unfriendly wilderness of the corporate world. And when he got up and did the same thing the next morning. I would care enough to send him off with a full belly and a smile on his face even if I had to go to work myself. My first job would be at home taking care of him and his seeds. Because he is the one who really takes care of me. If I wanted to work outside of that door, It would be for MY personal and sometimes frivolous needs. You had the man paying for his own Father’s Day, Birthday and Christmas presents! So what he didn’t see in you, he respected in me. That’s why I am now married to Avery!
