i know im young, but i know what i want

growing up we all have ideas of what we want for the rest of our lives, i know im young but i still want what ive always wanted. i may not have any clue what i want to do for the rest of my life, and i never have; but i do know what i want my life to be like. it doesnt matter how long ive been with someone before i ask how theyve always imagined their lives. its important to me to be on the same page if the relationship is going anywhere. i know i want a simple little life, i would be happy with that. the kind with a house up in the woods with a big front porch and tin roof to ping in the rain. i want kids, i love them and i want them. i dont want everything handed to me, i want to work for my lifestyle. its strange and slightly horrible but i love work, hard manual southern labor. the kind where you have to wear boots and get them a little muddy. landscaping and tree cutting, building and destroying. i love that and just fixing things up. i definitely dont want to be calling a plumber if something stops up. i want to be independent in that sense but i want to be completely dependent on my husband and him on me. i want that easy love that wakes up with a kiss each morning and a from behind hug in the pale yellow kitchen when im doing dishes. i dont want a huge house, or anything fancy. i just want simplicity. i know life is never simple but home is supposed to be your sanctuary, the stress free zone in your life. i want my house to be a vacation, i never want to leave. i want that mile long gravel driveway to the pretty house up on the hill that nobody can see from the road. i want to always be close to my family, and his. family is super important to me and ill bring my kids up the same way i was brought up. i love being with my extended family and i hate that i dont see them a lot. country music will always be my favorite, i want to play it soft and slow on the porch as the sun sinks below the ridge and the lightning bugs come out. i love riding in trucks, i never want to be without one. it feels more like summer to me than a convertible ever will. maybe its because we always took the truck to pull the boat but we took it to the mountains in the snow. i just dont ever want to choose between the love of my life and the life i love.
