Thanks to JOLLYBLOGGER for putting me on to
this post by Jennifer Roback Morse on Husband's
Day.

Just listen to some of her inspiring words.

When women marry, we get things that we
want and value. We get the opportunity to
become mothers. We get a home, our nest for
our little ones. What do men get? They get
the right to throw themselves on a live
genade for the protection of their families.
Or, as St. Paul suggested to the Ephesians,
husbands get the right to be crucified.

Most men, with an insignificant number of
exceptions, are capable of this heroic loyalty.
We women can call this out of our men. We
don't achieve this by nagging. We certainly
don't achieve it by competing with them
over who makes the most money, or by
keeping score with them on who does the
most household chores. We need to build them
up, as St. Paul says. Watch them sit up
straighter and taller when we appreciate
and admire them.

Wow...that is good.
