In thy wife thou shalt have gladness,She shall fill thy home with good,Happy in her loving serviceAnd the joys of motherhood.
It reminds me of Proverbs 18:22, "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord." I started wondering how I am doing: do I fill John's house with good? Do I make him happy? Am I happy with my daily chores? Do I find motherhood joyful? I will have to ask him.
Anyway, I just wanted to share this with you. You can read the rest of words to the hymn here.

Thanks for posting that, Nikki! I often miss the words to the hymns because I'm too busy playing the notes. I did notice the verse about children, but now I'm going to go back and read the whole thing.
Thank you for making me think! Blessings!!!!
Yes you are doing great, and you fill our house with good. I am very grateful that you are my wife.
John
