Out of our control

I cant believe that I have never considered this before right now, but it just kind of struck me out of the blue. It must be the song I am listening to or the fact that I miss you so dearly right now. It could be the length of this flight that has me anxious to get home to you like crazy. Who knows why these things strike when they do.

What if neither of our kids find love like we have? What if they are unable to find somebody in their live who will treat them the same way we treat each other? What will we do?

I can't accept that either of them wakes up next to someone who didn't go to bed the night before with the thought that today was another day when he was lucky enough to be with them. I know I go to bed that way every night.

I cant imagine them not having someone turn to them and randomly think to themselves, "oh my god she is beautiful, how lucky am I?". I know it happens to me all he time.

What happens if their husbands travel on business and don't count he minutes until they get home to their arms. What if the cab ride home doesn't make then anxious to see them? What if the flight home seems short instead of like an eternity? I know my trips home seem like the longest Christmas Eve in history.

How sad will it be if they have husbands who would rather spend time on the golf course with their buddies than hang out with them all day doing almost nothing? What if they don't really enjoy making spending time with them a priority? What if time together is just like any other time? I know my time is always best spent with you.

What if hey have just ordinary relatioships? With ordinary people? What if people aren't jealous of their marriages? What if people question why they are together? What if they don't look and act like they are perfect for each other? I know we are perfect for each other and people who see us together know it immediately. I can't even count how many random strangers have made comments about it to us. What if they never have those moments.

I know we can't hand pick spouses for them, but it sure would be nice. Then again no one would have picked us for each other and look how we turned out. I think we have found the saddest thing in our girls lives that we have no control over. We can't fix it for them if they don't do it right. We can only hope they get it right on their own.

We can only hope they find love "like we do" Which by the way is the song that prompted all of this. Funny how these things work huh?

You're the world to me. I love you more than anything in the world.
