Welcome to Part 12 of the series "Dear Future Spouse." These are real people who are writing to their future King and Queen. They do not personally know each other, but they are getting to know each other through the letters. Each week, you will find a response to the letter before. So, grab some coffee, tea, or tissue, and enjoy! Tell us what you think!
Dear Future Husband,
YAAASSSS for shared relationship goals! I met a young married couple who actually sat down and created a vision board together. I also know of marriages that have fallen apart because one spouse felt like the other “wasn’t on the team” or supporting the goals. Sadly, the supposed unsupportive spouse couldn’t be supportive of goals that were both unclear and didn’t seem to be for marriage, just one spouse’s personal ambitions.
Earlier today, I saw a post online that a couple had a wall full of photos from their 30+ years of marriage. Their goal had been to visit all 7 continents and inspire guests of their home to catch the travel bug as well. This was such a 
beautiful thing to me for 3 reasons: my love of traveling, their shared goal as a couple and family, their longevity of their marriage. Life is such a precious thing, and we all can be gone so soon which is why I’ve learned to celebrate and treasure the little things.
Father’s Day just passed, and it made me reflect on the wonderful relationship I had with my father but also imagine what your impact on our future children’s lives would be. What are 3 lessons you would hope our children will learn from you and will pass on to anyone they might meet? Was there anything from your childhood that you would like to do differently with our children?
Growing up my mom didn’t want us to work. She said we had our whole lives to work and wanted us to be children. I appreciate her protecting us and allowing us to be kids, but I want to balance that with instilling entrepreneurship in my children. I don’t want my son to be like Theo Huxtable and tell me to just give him the money I saved for college, but if he presented me with a business proposal for me to invest in in lieu of him attending college, I would be one proud Momma.
To my future husband and future father of my children, I pray that you have a safe, blessed, and prosperous week ahead.
Love,
Your future wife
