<br />the housework, care and maintenance and the expense and upkeep thereof would be a burden to my
<br />beloved wife, that she sell said property and from the proceeds of said sale purchase a smaller
<br />home suitable for herself; but I declare that such request shall not impose any legal obligation
<br />on her to fulfill this request.
