Marriage & Conversations

There are many things that happens when you are married and have shared so much with your spouse. One of the things I miss the most is the conversation we would have, even if we were not actually speaking. Our conversations would involve words, jesters, body language, facial expressions and glances. We seem to always know what the other person was thinking and what they would have said. There are so many times that I want to share something with Eric, whether it's about something funny, ridiculous, your never guess, OMG ect..... I think oh I 'll just call Eric, look at my phone and then realize that he won't answer my call. If I am somewhere with a group of people I often look for him to steal a glance or an expression so he knows what I am thinking. When I am on my way home from something I am excited to share my experiences with him and then realize that when I open the door he won't be there to greet me and listen to my story. I was one of the lucky wives who had a husband that liked to talk and we would talk for hours. When he was at work we would talk each night before bed and many times during the day. If I was gone he would call me often and we would chat. Then with texting we would send little messages during the day. This is one of the things I miss the most, I have so much to share with him. I know I can talk to the sky but he can't talked back and then people will think I am a bit off. So for those of you who are lucky enough to have a spouse or significant other remember to share and share often, talk to each other, listen to each other and enjoy the conversation because one day it may all change.

Love,
Hallie

Hugs to you! I am thinking about you and I wanted to see you this trip, but I did not have time. I was there, but not there. You can call or text me any time. :-) I have that same feeling about my Mom. Sometimes I think I have to call her and tell her things. Congrats on going to the all start game, I am sure it was so much fun for the kids. Cindy Fojo
