Our goals and dreams
I talked to my husband last night and he asked me if I was going to put him in jail. Well, needless to say I was deeply offended. I would never do anything like that and was shocked that he thought that I was capable of it. It turns out that his mother and grandmother told him that if he came up here to be with me then the first time we fight I will call the police and have him locked up. Is that not insane??!!?? Then I told him that if this is going to work that he has to trust me and not let the things that his family says get to him. I do love my husband very much, even though things are rocky right now. We talked about homeschooling, which he is completely supportive of. He even says that while he is looking for work he will help. We have decide that the curriculum should be entwined with faith. I’m very excited. We also discussed where we want to live. See, the plan has been to move to New York City because all of his friends and what little family he has here is up there and he would be more comfortable. The homeschooling laws are very strict, though, and it would be very difficult for us to buy a home. Here in Oklahoma there are almost no laws about homeschooling, almost all of my family is here, and we have a shot at buying property and starting a business. All this makes me want to stay here. So, when I was talking to him last night, going on and on about the opportunities here and he told me that if I want for us to stay here we can. I’m very happy about that. Very happy. My family is right here and they love my kids so much. They will watch them whenever I ask, which is great for us so that we will have a little time alone, something we’ve never had. I am feeling a little better about our future.
