“I Want” The Prayer of a Leaders Wife

I want the tent in my bed room gone
I want the plastic boxes of books and notes gone from the living room
I want one night without the S word
I want to go on vacation without taking other people’s children
I want to spend my anniversary without ironing a tan shirt
I want to be able to accept an invitation without having to check his calendar
I want my front door painted
I want a car that doesn’t have a tow bar
I want to feel more important that strangers
I want to hear my husband laugh when we are alone
I want to know that he is only thinking of me when we are alone in the dark
I want him back

I believe the most important person in any Troop is the Scoutmaster’s wife, since they sacrifice more than just an hour a week.

Thank you honey for all your support!
