“Just don’t visit”
by adustyframe ~ June 10th, 2007Lee told me the other day.
He said since I’m so busy and sometimes can’t get everything done, I should just skip visiting him.
I know that was a sacrifice for him to say that to me.
He’s often told me that’s all he has to look forward to. Visits and mail.
The thing he does not know is that I NEED to visit him.
I need to put my head on his shoulder and feel his arms around me.
I need to touch him and remember what he feels like.
I need to catch him up to speed on our days.
I need to pray with him.
I need to watch him laugh or smile.
I need to see him wink at me.
I need to flirt and tease and play with him.
I need to hear him share his life and what he’s learning.
I need to sit with my husband and feel normal for a little while.
No Lee, skipping visits with you will not help me.

print out the post and mail it to him……
i think he may think he isnt much help at the moment and to see you NEED him like this may just fill his heart with love and pride….(the good kind of pride)

That’s so beautiful, it almost made me cry. I’m glad you’re going to send it to Lee so he can see that you need him as much as he needs you.

Awww! I’m sniffling here too! Lee is so fortunate to have such a dear wife! And yes, DO send this post to him. It will just reinforce to him how much he is needed in your life. I am so happy that things are going so well in your relationship with each other!
