Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
1 Attachment(s)
Praise Jesus Brothers!
Christmas will be here before you know it and if you are like me, we often find ourselves at the dimestore on Christmas Eve looking for the perfect gift for our wives in expression of our love. Not this year; I'm just getting too old for that last-minute stress and have already purchased Mrs. Porters gift. Christmas is a special day for Christians as we celebrate the birth of our Savior. In the Porter home, we understand this and limit ourselves to just one gift to each other that reflects our value and status in the household. I've left Rolex brochures on the coffee table for weeks now as a hint of what I expect to awake to. The Holy Bible is very clear on why the man is superior to the woman, and therefore worthy of substantially more recognition. Quote:
Although written by a woman, "The Excellent Wife; A Biblical Perspective" appears to be solid and Godly instruction. I found it here for just $5.26, brand new. The reviews are great. Quote:
Feel free to share what you will buy for your wives as well! In Christ! |
Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
I don't have a wife yet, but am courting a fine Christian girl that still has her fanciful ideas of equality. Otherwise she is a great girl who will be a good mother after some correcting, and Ive decided to start training her for being a good submissive wife with not only the great book you have shown me, but this pastry board along with several differen't recipe's and ingredients to make some baked goods shown herehttp://www.uncommongoods.com/product/pastry-board Im also thinking of giving her a plot of soil in my yard to tend but am wary as to wether or not that would be spoiling her which would achieve the opposite of my goal, any advice on this?

This secular world gives them an artificial sense of self-importance that is difficult to entirely remove. A plot of soil for her to tend is entirely reasonable provided she understands that God made it, it belongs to you and she is just using it. Hence, no rototillers or tools of convenience. Whatever money she would waste on frivolous clothing should go toward a shovel, trowel and packets of seeds. The blisters and sweat will be forgotten as she reaps what she sows and serves it to you. In Jesus! |
Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
Thank you! I already am having visions of the joy I will bring to her on Christmas day as she see's the beginning of her maturing from her childish equal mindedness into a happy submissive wife!!! I of course will have to make sure she dresses apropriately and watch over her work but I feel that after a few simple lessons she will gain somewhat of a green thumb ( I grew up in somewhat of a farming community and have some experience caring for crops) and will then rejoice in the fact that when she reaps the harvest I will be able to save money from my food budget and be able to give more to Christ! I now have to find the patience to wait for Jesus's birthday to unveil this gift to her! Thank you for your advice!

Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
Now that looks like a good Gift. I was wondering what to get her. We got all new appliances with the house and I just bought her a new vacuum for her birthday.
Perhaps a new book and a couple of rolls of fabric? |
Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
I don't presently have a wife . . . not since the incident. :unsure:
I wonder what you gentlemen think about buying one's wife a washing machine. They aren't that expensive, and it occurs to me that even a woman can participate in more useful, value-adding activities (like that Victory Garden suggestion, or even taking in mending) rather than spending time doing something an appliance can, honestly, do better anyway. |

Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
Please allow me to apologize for posting here, but why don't you just buy a present for yourself as per Reaganomics? There is nothing a woman should like better than seeing her husband happy, and by buying yourself something you like the excess happiness should trickle down to her, thereby increasing net happiness.
Although I can think of one little lady who is hoping for a set of these. :innocent: http://ginsuknife.org/wp-content/upl...fe-set-041.jpg |

One of the neighbors here bought his wife a butter churn last year.
I know it is convenient to buy butter already made at the store, but I have to admit watching her struggle with the thing makes her fresh biscuits taste all that much better with the homemade butter on them. Don't spoil the surprise, but I think this years Christmas present is a bee hive for her to tend. |

By no means a dryer. There's nothing wrong with a laundry basket, a clothesline and God's gift of the wind. A good way for her to get some exercise as well.:thumbsup: In Christ |
Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
I don't have a wife, thank you Jesus. So I think I will spoil myself with a new Rolls Royce this year. May be a few new hunting rifles. :lol:

Yes, I know, she needs a new set of kitchen knives. Again. She goes through them like crazy! I swear, every batch of her meat pies seems to cost her at least one, if not two knives. I have no idea what she's doing with them; she says they just break. I think I'll get her some extra-sturdy ones this year. American made, of course, not that cheap Japanese Ginsu crap. (She went through a whole set of those in a three-month period back in 2008.) I'm thinking Lamson & Goodnow; you folks in Iowa might want to buy from Rada. Or check out all these others! http://www.stillmadeinusa.com/kitchen.html |
Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
My wife told me I was no longer romantic, so I booked a table for the two of us on Valentine's Night. Problem was she sucks at Pool!

Re: Christmas Gifts For Our Wives
Mrs. Hutchins and I have been married so long that we have become predictable. I suppose that is right. But I know sheed needs a new one of these and they seem to wear out just before Christmas.

I am a simple and practical man.
A big diamond does nothing other than make it difficult to put on work gloves. A good washboard, well that provides a woman with sparkling pride. |

What can I say? I just love my wife and found another excellent title for only $1.96 used here. I hate to spoil her on Christmas Day, but ordered this one as well.:wub:
