A Man and a woman had been married for more than 60 years. They had shared everything, They had kept no secrets from each other except that the little old woman had a shoe box, in the top of her closet that she had cautioned her husband never to open or ask her about.
For all of these years,he had never thought about the box,but one day the His wife got very sick and the doctor said she would not recover. In trying to sort out their affairs, the husband took down the shoe box and took it to his wife's bedside. She agreed that it was time that he should know what was in the box.
When he opened it,he found two crocheted dolls and a stack of money totaling $95,000. He asked her about the contents.
"When we were to be married,"she said, "my grandmother told me the secret of a happy marriage was to never argue,She told me that if I got angry with you, I should just keep quiet and crochet a doll" The Husband was so moved; he had to fight back the tears. Only two precious dolls were in the box. Fancy that!!!!!!!
She had only been angry with him "two times" in all those 60 years of living and loving.
He almost burst with happiness.
"Honey he said "that explains the two dolls,
but what about all of this money?
Where did it all come from?
"Oh that!" She said. "That's all the money I made from selling the crocheted dolls!"
