Scripture:
She watches over the affairs of her household, and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all. Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing; but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.
Proverbs 31:27-30
