I am a relationship girl

I am a relationship girl.
I want to get married.
I want to have kids.
I want to continue working in higher ed and someday become a Dean.
I want to have a house full of love and laughter.
I want a husband who still thinks I'm sexy when I'm 9 months pregnant and ready to pop and doesn't look at other women.
I want to have BBQs on Saturdays after little league games with my family and friends.
I want to raise my children in the Church.
I want to go on family vacations.
I want to be a PTA mom.
I want to have a book club with my girl friends.
I want to garden with my mother when we visit each other.
I want to coach track or cross country.
I want to help chaperone my kids' field trips.
I want to have family traditions with my husband and kids like opening gifts at our house on Christmas day and Easter at grandma and grandpa's (alternating houses every year of course).
I want to spend my life married to my best friend and the man who thinks I am the most beautiful woman in the world and tells me so every day not because he feels he has to, but because he means it.
I want my kids to admire their parents for the love and commitment they have for each other.
That's what I want.
Call me traditional, boring or unrealistic, but that's what I want for my life.
