Proud to be a Coach's Wife

I am a Coach's Wife, I am married to a football coach. The best kind of coach, the kind that you want to coach your child, the kind that is there for all of the right reasons, the kind that would give his own life to save the life of one of his players. I cheer for not one child but every child. I don't have a son on the team or a daughter on the sidelines but in my heart they are all mine. I am a coach's wife. I give up my husband and my life for 5 months so that he can be a mentor to a child. We eat apart all but one night a week and on Thursday and Friday nights I come home to an empty house. We are a coaching family. I am proud of my husband and I am proud to be a Coach's Wife!

(This was copied from another Coach's Wife blog and adjusted to my life. It's amazing how we experience this "job" as a ministry. I'm proud to stand next to my husband and support him)

ALWAYS.SOMETIMES.NEVER

Thought I'd try to do something fun:

I always...
tell my husband "I love you" when we get off the phone
pray with my daughter when I put her to bed
watch TV as soon as I put my daughter to bed
love watching FRIENDS reruns
wish I spent more time exercising
lock the doors and keep the blinds closed

I sometimes...
enjoy cooking and shopping
miss my Mom so much that I HAVE to call her
worry about what I would do if something happened to my husband or daughter
wish I was an athlete
do something just to prove that I can

I never...
wish I could eat at home instead of out
do enough housework
do the laundry (thanks to my husband)
get tired of hearing and seeing my daughter laugh
expected to be where I am today
