The Perfect Woman

Yesterday my wife asked me to envision the perfect woman and then make a list of her virtues. She pleaded with me to have an open mind and not let it become a list of virtues she has or a list of virtues I wished she had. Here is what I came up with; order has no significance.

• Loving, capable of being a mother to anybody, but not pron to spoiling
• Faithful, spiritual, prayerful
• Graceful
• Intelligent in conversation, but not determined to win arguments
• Humorous, but not raucous
• Musical
• Humble, but not shy or awkward
• Confident, but not prideful
• Capable of leading, but never desiring to ^[1]
• Understanding of human emotions
• Socially proper
• Organized but no OCD
• Capable of cooking every day without the family tiring of her food ^[2]
• Frugal
• Long hair ^[3]

"A virtuous woman is a crown to her husband" - Proverbs 12:4

^[1] The wife in Legacy is the best example I can think of. She's able to take charge when she needs to.
^[2] This doesn't mean she has to cook every day, just that she could if needed to.
^[3] I added this after my wife pointed out that I didn't have any physical attributes in the list. I didn't think I needed any, but then I realized I always envision good women as having long hair.
