Best Wife in the World

Kimberly Jonas

Period.

I’ve been married now for almost 4 years and they have been the best 4 years of my life. It’s not that she did any one thing that makes her the best wife in the world, it’s all the little things she does for me. It’s the cooking and the cleaning and the understanding and the forgiving and the way she takes care of my kids and the way she believes in God and how she treats me, loves me, forgives me, puts up with me, does stuff with me, goes places with me, and just in general lives with me.

For my birthday this year she spent weeks making a scrapbook of pictures of me as a dad. It was awesome.
For her birthday this year I didn’t really do ANYTHING and she was ok with that.
Last weekend she agreed to go camping with me to a place where there wasn’t running water, bathrooms, or showers.
Sometimes she comes at 9:30 at night to watch me play ice hockey.
My everyday breakfasts include toast, french toast, pancakes (when I can handle eating them), cereal, biscuits and gravy, sausage and egg mcmuffins, crepes, eggs on toast, eggs with cream cheese and normal cheese and other spices mixed in, hash browns, waffles, omlettes, and just about anything else you could want to eat for breakfast (wait…no…not cracked wheat).
She handles our family finances including putting all the transactions into quicken and categorizing them.
She goes on walks with me so I can get exercise.
She does a DANG good job of raising my kids.
She lets me golf whenever I want.
She lets me work from home. She lets me work almost whenever I want.
She decorates my house beautifully.

Boy, I could go on forever with this.

Let’s just say that it suffices to say she wins the Best Wife in the World award.

Thanks Kim.

I’m feeling really sorry for this woman – what does she get out of this relationship?! I’m glad you appreciate the things she’s doing because I’m not sure anyone else would have you. Whose taking care of her? She is a saint in my book. I hope you can get your act together soon enough to provide the same level of support for her that she is giving you – she needs an adult to live with not another ‘child’! Sheesh – she’s feeding you, walking you, giving you thoughtful presents, letting you play with your friends, raising your kids, keeping the house and the finances in order …… Free Kim so that she may live again!

Wow that last comment was rude…you see what his is doing…acknowledging his wife..that is one of the best gifts someone can give. I also too have an amazing wife..Like a mind blowing I cannot believe how amazing she is. I was searching for a worlds greatest wife award and this is a blog I found. Pehaps we should get togethat and host and award ceremony for the worlds greatest wifes!

She sounds like “the Proverbs 31 wife” – I aspire to
be that great someday! No doubt she is setting a good
example for other women around her. It’s too bad that
so many women in our society today are missing out on
what your wife has discovered. A wife has the power
to “make or break” her husband. A woman who is truly
a helper to her husband is rare indeed! Her top
priority is her husband (not herself) and he
reciprocates with deep love & respect for her.
My husband & I have been married for 5 years. We are
learning that marriage is like dancing. There can only
be one leader (the husband) who must take a strong lead
lest his partner stumble. When we each are doing our
parts (husband: lead & love)- (wife: help & submit)…
the dance is wonderful and we are experiencing true
joy in our marriage.

Congrats on having the best wife in the world!!!

Thanks Suzi.

We’re finding that the more each of us do our parts, and support each other in that, the better our relationship and our family work.

Everyone has a role in every relationship. Women are different than men. They’re better at certain things. My wife knows that. I know that. She’s dang good at a lot of things. I’m good at somethings. We stick to what we’re each good at, support each other, and things seem to work out really well.

It helps a lot that she’s always unselfish, humble, willing to forgive me, and willing to work.

You are the lucky one as like as me.
I’m glad to see this blog, My wife is the best for me in his world. No not in worl but in universe. You suggest me the way to express the feelings about someone who loves you the most, care the most. For whom you are the most important then the rest of the world.
Thanks Jonas

“She decorates my house beautifully.”

That’s very nice for you. Where does she live? Does she decorate her house just as beautifully as she does yours?

Comment #2 is most likely a Feminist, so I would disregard that criticizm. You are not alone but you are just as blessed. My Wife Cleans our house, cooks my dinner and raises our child. She is a godsend and our house would not function with out her. Her is the part that #2 (a fitting number) did not understand, my wife and I am sure your wife would not beable to opperate with our us going out into the world and bringing home the income to support the family. So hats off to the Housewife! and hats off to the Husbands that make it all possible. May we continue to make enough money to keep our lovly wifes at home raising our children not to be social idiots and inconsiderate bastards like #2. Speaking of #2 I have to go take one right now… God bless all the wonderfull stay at home moms out there! Its good for the home and good for the children!

You have a lot to learn about a wife my friend!!!!

Tom Heard @ 11:23 pm

Wow … why are we so polarized over this? Why the assumption that this wife
is not being taken care of? Where does that assumption come from? What if she
truly enjoys what she is doing? What if it is her chosen, preferred occupation?
Is there grace, is there acceptance, for that choice on her part?

But then, #8, why the label of “feminist” ?? Neither people nor the world are
our enemy. And why disregard any criticism — weigh it, personally, and find it
full of truth or lacking truth. I am appalled at the horrid labels issued later
in the paragraph. Shooting these kind of flaming arrows into each others camps
is no way to live.

John Jonas, what a beautiful post celebrating a humble and giving soul, and
clearly coming straight from a humble and grateful heart. Forgive a broken
world’s grafitti on your artwork, and don’t be discouraged. :-)

For the women in this blog, I appreciate your views because they are much like my own. For the men in this blog (except the last) to call someone a feminist for expressing their impression of this opinion is horrible. But I believe that the word feminist isn’t what you think, look it up and you will see that it means empowerment toward women instead of women hating men. This just sounds like men trying to belittle women, and if you notice Johns wording could have helped with directing the point: he could have said “our” more than “my”.

Kim,
I salute you and congratulate you on your professional and wise management of your family… You are a hero in a crazy, material, less-moral-world.

Life is not about money, beauty, power or anything else… it’s about MUTUAL SHARED RESPECT, GIVING & LOVE… Please notice that we are talking about shared & mutual beauty in life… Go crazy, wild, material… and try whatever you want… you will always go to the simple basics that life is not about anything else in the world but MUTUAL SHARED RESPECT, GIVING & LOVE. If you can make one or more people, LOVE, RESPECT and THINK of you all the time.., you are the RICHEST PERSON ON THE PLANET!!!!???

John,
It’s a good thing to see your thankful feelings for your sweet heart…
You are so lucky man to have found your perfect life partner. I wish I could meet you all some day around a congrats-and-appreciation dinner or cappuccino!!! You Guys are an amazing family!!!
More than that…, I wonder if I can clone Kim and look deep into some beautiful eyes of a wonderful lady like Kim… It’s a dream and I’m ready to climb Himalaya or cross the ocean to get to that beautiful heart!!!!

Keep up “the good work” guys (and girls) :-) … you are some kind of “rare species”…!!!!!
I would love to be part of that “noble group”!!!

honestly,

I couldnt read all of the comments, but this man loves his wife. NO ONE, man or woman should ever take there spouse for granted when they are treated like this. You need to make your spouse feel like they are the most important person in the world to you. I have one of the greatest mothers/wife in the world I am still married to as of right now, but I didnt treat her as so. No physical confrontations, no cheating, but for about the last 5 years I talked down to her & treated her like crap & I am fighting for my life to keep her. Anyone who reads this… Dont ever take your spouse for granted, words leave very deep scares. I think the person who started this sounds like a good guy, never forget what you have!!!

Wow… you didn’t give her anything for her birthday?! are you writing this because you feel bad or something? is this your way of being a great husband? lol poor woman

housewife who knows @ 10:46 pm

Please guys, if at all possible try not to make your wonderful wives “put up with your crap.” They may seem always to be good natured about picking up your dirty socks and changing your children’s poopy pants, but this is not always so. Put yourself in her shoes. Do the dishes and the diapers every once in a while to show how much you appreciate it, and for goodness sakes, do something special for her on her birthday! As for the misogynistic comments about the household having only one leader, well, one can only hope that the boy children are led by their mothers and that they truly learn to respect and appreciate women instead of growing up thinking that a woman’s place is behind them.

Ruth @ 12:19 pm

I’m here to write an essay for my class, ” How to be A Best Wife”, it should be a process essay, at the same time, it should be ironic. Thanks for you words, the way your wife treats you sounds great to all the men, but it doesn’t sound right in women’s ear thooo….. this is what I am going to write about, my main point or focus is that ‘A Best Wife’ deserves to marry Jesus, not an sinful MAN. If a woman should be a slave, man can probably buy a robot machine wife, a robot can do 1000 times better job than a woman, why not ?

Should have added she is good looking as well. Could not avoid noticising it/ And your son too!

John, dude, I think replacemyself.com was a direct result fo you wanting to have more time with your wife and kids.

Enjoy it man, you deserve it, this is why we all do stuff online, to have more time to spent for things and people that matter to us.

(hopefully my gf is not gonna read this post anytime soon) hehe

Han @ 3:18 am

Well done John for praising your wife because according to Google, men don’t praise their wife enough, well not as much as women do for her husband. As for praising Son, may be they are not so proud!?

I really appriciate what your wife is doing to you. Can you link her to mine for trainning please!

Tsitsi Nyama @ 7:55 pm

Mna were created hot heads at time i think, what this guy has done is remarkable he has just shawed how much he apreciates his wife.I also think that this must also open his eyes wider and not do nothing for her birthday.Little but things like this are really really impportant to women.She has a heart of gold and probably says its ok becouse its her nature to understand but man.

You know, I stopped reading about half-way through the comments.
I am very happy you are so proud of your wife. And you should be. I too was looking (googling) "best wife in the world" and came across your post. "F" those that put you down for saying why you and your wife is the best. OB-LA-DE OB-LA-DA and "Too Each Their Own." In other words, be happy and don't worry about what others say….if you are happy and she is happy, the f*ck those who stand in your (and her) way.

shd-is-a-love-hater @ 4:24 am

I feel more sorry for shd. I hope someday that you find someone who appriciates you as much as this person loves their spouse. I feel more sorry for you than anything you could ever post.

LOVE = LOVE. (if you don't understand this simple math then maybe it's time to take your own equation out!!)

me2 @ 4:30 am

Linda-if it was just "Me Me Me Me Me" then why would the first link under a Google search for "Best Wife in the World" would it be #1?

Just because a spouse is explaining why they are lucky to have the one they love love them as much as they do, why is this selfish? Just because they said why?

Typical female————-see? It's not so nice, is it?

ESounds like she's your slave! I'm glad you like your slave!
